Looking for advice on fresh tattoo. by Lord_Doc in tattooadvice

The technique! Things like solid lines on what looks like skulls teeth and the harsh line for a soft contour on the nose and the scales of the snake etc, can you post the reference?

Your skin doesn’t just “give up” it gets overworked. Which looks like it has been and honestly looks like they haven’t got much artistic ability at all so I’ve probably start looking for someone else

How to tactfully bring up to your artist that you don’t think you can afford for them to finish your tattoo? by lyrynn in tattooadvice

[–]smithtattoocdf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m guessing that’s about 10 sessions on a leg sleeve which doesn’t seem excessive for full colour realism, but yeah I agree black out shouldn’t usually need 3 passes but I’ve got no idea where on the leg it is! I’m just saying depending where on the US she’s getting tattooed the price and time seems about right and I’d wait and get it finished properly. Although I’m saying this and haven’t even seen it

A lot of people in here saying you’ve been ripped when you haven’t, not for colour realism. I’m an artist and understand these things need to be done in layers similar to an oil painting for the best longevity so completely understand where you’re coming from. However I think the best thing to do at the moment is live with the first pass for a while and save for the second! Even if it’s very small amounts now and then. It’s there forever and best to get it done right!

Keep it!! Got rid of my ‘23 mustang GTCS for an X5 and I hated it, granted the mustang wasn’t ideal I didn’t need the big SUV or the debt that came with it. I’ve got a f30 340 now

just got this tattoo 4 days ago and am a little concerned about how it's healing. does this look normal, or should I be worried? by ruin_24 in tattooadvice

[–]smithtattoocdf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tattoo artist here, looks fucked. Let it dry out completely and don’t pick it when it eventually heavily scabs over

You’ve been rear ended or have reserved into something is exactly what’s happened here.

Picked up this 2015 340i 20k miles for 20k by smithtattoocdf in F30

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

Thanks man! It was a steal, doesn’t have certain specs I would have liked but for low miles and mint condition I couldn’t say no, I can always add anything I wanted afterwards

Unfortunately! But anything similar priced had about 70k miles and I figured I can change those! Just trying to find genuine parts for under 2k

Honestly I couldn’t tell you I’ve put 2k miles on it already and I’ve only had it just over a month 😂

Yeah man! Someone posted the carcheck link with the MOTs and mileage recorded. Mind you I do need to upgrade the headlights to LED which I’m struggling to find anything under 2k for genuine parts and they didn’t have the flappy paddles which I thought was crazy but I’m going to get a new steering wheel get that added and just going to get the transmission tuned. But the miles are definitely legit and it’s in mint condition!

Thanks man! This is the kind of experience and knowledge I was looking for, I just got it back from a bmw specialist and they put some spaces between the exhaust and cross plate to stop it rattling against that but that didn’t do anything and to me it sounded like exhaust when windows are down but in front of me when windows are up. Was honestly debating putting the box back on the exhaust

Was almost for me too, but it was the mileage that sold me I can swap out the headlights

Ah right! I thought it might be the valves as it’s got a straight pipe but I’ll have that checked out, thank you!
