Hello from Israel, fellow tattooed(?)* humans!

[TheRavid]

I am a 30 y/o engineer from Israel, I like cats , coffee and Tv.

My confession is I only have one tattoo - and have been thinking about getting another for over 5 years now.

How long has it been since you got your last tattoo?

Edit: here's my tattoo, feel free to critique it

Welcome. I saw an article in the press here saying that tattoos were still frowned upon by older Israelis- what's it like over there?

The tattoo looks good to me. You won't see a lot of new school stuff like that on this forum for whatever reason.

Welcome to LST. Your first tattoo is much better than a lot of first tattoos. Congrats!

[TheRavid]

Thank u guys!

RoryQ- My tattoo is usually covered (by a shirt) so I wouldn't know about tattoo reception here, but I can tell you both my parents have a tattoo.

Myles- thanks! I got it in London after searching for nice artists on foot for about 6 months.

Thanks Joe, but I'm coming to the west coast usa in about 6 months and wanted to get one there. Looking to get a cartoon/New school piece done by a specialist.

Any suggestions?

Hi Joe, I'm going to be traveling through Washington, Oregon , California and maybe Nevada.

Looking for a back calf piece of a Nintendo character. But I like looking at the artist's work before I choose the actual design.

Thanks for the help !

I second Ego and also add Alivia at Artful Dodger Tattoo in Seattle. They've got a whole comic book/cartoon vibe you may appreciate.
