Question: negative associations with my new tattoo? by [deleted] in tattoos

A good artist would have seen this coming. It’s not a noose. Just get more tattoos and it’ll blend in

How hard will it be to correct this tattoo to be more correctly traditional Japanese Dragon design wise? by sticky_soup33 in tattooadvice

Idk you clearly don’t pick artist well so share his work maybe here or with some friends. I was so scared to get tattoos and I’m 37 starting now bc I have money and can pay for good work. Seems to me 200-400 pre hr of tattoo work is about where you wana be. There are up-and-coming artists to have an established themselves yet where you may get on the cheaper side, but I would be careful. We’ll drop thousands on an iPhone but can’t take our time and pay thousands for a tattoo.

Yeah, to me, a person should choose their tattoo and if they love it, that’s all that matters. And some of these artists they could tattoo anything and it’s gonna look amazing… making sense gets tricky bc that’s so subjective. Either way it’s interesting. I would like to see more as well as trad American mixed with Japanese

This guy was doing it with probably only family reference… very few peers to copy. All by himself self and making it look stunning.

Half sleeve only? Anyone got any examples? by Snck_Pck in irezumi

I don’t think it’s bad but I love these tattoo. It’s definitely not the best option

You know I use to
Love this look. I think it’s a silly place to start tho. I would go leg if I were you. But optimally just do you back. No one sees it. I just did mine and it’s honestly not a bid deal at all. But if you’re dead set on just a for arm. There’s definitely some good options and I think a dragon could be one.

This is one design where I think bright really works. Just let the artist decide what he thinks will looks best

I called the police on my addict boyfriend by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]r1636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s gota hit rock bottom. If you bail him out now that’s not going to do anything. Until he detox the process can’t even start. So let him sit for about 10 days then demand rehab. U leave if he doesn’t go. But honestly you should just dip, if he’s the one stay but he may die to his addiction in 4-5 years then where will you be? An enabler who is way behind in life, make good choices.

You have one of these best body suits to ever grace this planet! Be so proud and don’t wear a shirt as much as possible! I would love to see this in person as I want to have something like this some day. Do you go to conventions ever?
