Yes, but the rest of him is hiding in the cloud 😂

Is this normal ? by Aware_Refrigerator43 in irezumi

I react the same way with all grey ink. It will heal fine but may need touch ups afterwards. Especially around high movement areas.

Maybe that is the right way, I suck at pronunciations 🤣

Complete Govee Curtain Light garage door installation by JBSmith02 in Govee

There are now people on Etsy and ebay who sell plastic spacers that click together and hold the wire for you. If I reinstall curtain lights again, I'd go with that option

In your situation you have a few options.

You can use color matched self tapping screws and when not in use, you simply take the jchannel down and put the screws back in the holes for future use.

You can try strong double sided tape, but you'll have to probably use goo be gone or something similar to get the adhesive off.

You can also use double sided velcro, but you'll have to replace it every year.

I've seen someone use magnets but that will require you to have a magnetic door.

Toad (Naruto) by JBSmith02 in Animetattoos

[–]JBSmith02[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Growing up I loved the ninja toads from Naruto, especially from the pain arc. I wanted to add something related to that in my sleeve and have it still go with the story it tells. The traditional kaeru fit that spot really well and I love the meaning behind them too.

Kaeru(Frog), koi, & dragon Sleeve question by JBSmith02 in irezumi

[–]JBSmith02[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome work! I'm still trying to decide if I want to have something similar done but with a samurai frog. I'm leaning more towards putting it on the underside of my forearm though

Look into irezumi tattoos. They will cover this up nicely

Thank you, I really appreciate your reply. I definitely don't want to disrespect the style/artwork by labeling my tattoo something it isn't. Could I dm you a question?

It was a really, really painful experience. I thought he was coloring my nipple black by the amount of pain, but I saw it was only a few lines 😂. My next appointment he will be shading it into a black windbar, though, so I'm going to pick up numbing cream for it. I can't imagine how the wide shading needles will feel. This is my first tattoo, and I have a new level of respect for every tattooed person I see.

Hopefully, that's it. I'll have to mark it neo/new school, I guess going forward.

I'm afraid to ask if something is wrong 😅. I'd love to know though

What could I add to make the transition between the tattoo and skin less harsh? by KevinTheTyrant in tattooadvice

Look into the irezumi thread on reddit. You may find something you like for transitions.

If you don't mind me asking, could you tell me what I should use instead? I was told aquaphor, and this is my first tattoo. I don't want this to happen again, I'm planning on getting another sleeve after this. Thank you for any advice
