So, as i originally posted, i was going to start my sleeve in November - but a reschedule ment that i got to start a little earlier.

So im now done with the outlines. So its all just a lot of black lines, you cant really see what its goin to look like unless you know exactly what to look for.

All i can say - extreme pain.

I didn't sleep alot the night before and had to get up really early since the studio is 3½ hours away. And lack of sleep is NOT good for the pain threshold. And in very skinny. My skin is veery thin.

I cannot describe the pain i felt when he went over my elbow, the inside of the elbow, the area around the armpit.. I mean, i've felt pain before and consider myself to be kinda good at handling it. But this, this was different. Fucking shit fuck it hurt! And that went on for at least 3½ hours. I was beat at the end, i promise you that.



This pic shows when i was just under halfway done.


Just all lines Razz

Next time, November sometime, we'll start shadowing and adding color, CAN'T WAIT, its going to look so freakin' awesome!

Oh man, that arm is so red, it really looks like it hurts like hell...

I'd never get a tattoo, but I hope you'll be happy with it, it looks nice from what you can see ATM. Smile

It looks wicked Very Happy I could have tattoo on my body, but not that big, you must really be into tattoos to do sth of that magnitude. I hope in the end it will look as you wish, you'll have to post pics Very Happy

Imo tatoos look good without the colours filled in when they are just sketched lines. Some people go overboard with the colours and then you can't see the drawing.

Looks good Sin. Just don't emulate the tatoo guy's left forearm. Razz

If it was something you really wanted and loved then I am sure you could. It would mean something to you.

I just see it as something one would grow out of as they get older. I know plenty of people who regret their tatoos but just as many love them to death.

i have actually never met anyone who regretted getting a tattoo, just people saying that one might to talk others out of it. It s like the common prejudice-argument against tattoos for worried parents really.

i dont have any though, so i m not the best guy to talk about tattoos either. Love the pic though, could end up looking really great =)

Some do, and some don't. If they really knew themselves at an early age I think they would be pretty comfortable with their choice of tattoo. It would always be a memory of their earlier life and if they were happy with that, then I think they would be happy with the tattoo.

I change my mind way too much. So no tattoo for me.

I just see the odds of growing out of it higher than accepting it when you are much older. I mean 90% of the things we do are culturally/socially influenced and things change constantly. I can understand if the artwork is emotionally valuable or represents something extremely important but Im talking about the average tatoo here.

EDIT: I don't want to rape SiN's thread so no more. Laughing

I think some people are ok with who their were in their youth. Some people I met who had early tat's said I don't like them now but they are a real part of me. It was who I was. In a sence they are still happy with them, even tho they may not represent who they are today.

I don't have any. I don't think I will altho I flirt with the idea all the time.
