New one on my ankle. Done last night in and for Long Beach, NY.

 

Clean as hell.

 

just booked my next one. flower time.

 

Got this one yesterday!

 

That’s cool as fuck.

 

Thank you!

 

fresh picked blue rose on my chest

 

I have a red one on my inner arm!

 

So crazy, I've been thinking of getting one blue and one red on my foot for a long time! Lol

 

Do it! The feet hurt but they look so good tattooed.

 

Folks, can I get an honest opinion in here? I've been thinking of getting my avatar (Kurt vonnegut doodle) as a tattoo for a while and I've finally settled on placement, but my wife thinks it looks ugly. Is she right or shall I commit?

This is the tattoo on someone else:

 

I think that would look good as a smaller tattoo. And I’d go to someone that does great line work.

 

Hahaha yeah

 

The general consensus im getting from other friends with tattoos is that it's a bit shit haha. The more positive comments have suggested its "ugly in a good way". Think im heading back to the drawing board lol.

 

I don't think it's a bad idea at all just the line work on the tattoo on the person in that pic is not great

 

Agreed, my guy would do a far better job haha.

I dunno, I'm torn. I'd love a vonnegut doodle, there's loads in his books that would translate well as tattoos, but none that I like quite as much as that one.

 

Where do you plan on getting it?

 

I have lyrics basically scribbled on my arm and that handwriting/line work is part of the charm, but I agree here. Commit if you love the piece, just find someone who does good work.

 

This is who I usually go with

And in fact as proof of his line skills:

 

I meant on your body? The same as that picture? Also that line work is on point. I think it would look good as a smaller piece that’s not bigger than 3 or 4 inches.

 

OK with you lol. I was thinking back of my upper arm, and yeah no bigger than about 4 inches tall.

 

I personally think that could look cool. If you dig it go for it!

 

Interesting.

 

Just requested an appointment this summer to get a black and grey traditional-style squid on my thigh. Inspired by the squid on the Vheissu cover. Hope I can get an appointment, my only other tattoo was a walk-in. It would be with this guy, I love his work:
