BigGuns 4 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Hello all, Just introducing myself. I'm about to pull the trigger on a new tattoo this week and after reading this forum for weeks and weeks, I am learning about the dos and don'ts I never would have known. Great site. Brutal honesty and great information and advice. I have two small and rather generic tattoos that I got at 18 in Biloxi at the old Jack and Diane's shop. I just turned 40 and have been holding onto a tattoo concept for about 4 yrs. After researching for while and two consults, I'm going to the Black Sparrow, (Andrew Trull) for my new work this week. Excited to say the least. Thanks for all the info through this forum! It's greatly appreciated! Beans 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
el twe 401 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Welcome. What are you getting? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigGuns 4 Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 I took a sketch concept and let my artist run with it. It's going to be a realism tree with 3 detailed birds in different aspects of flight and perch. I wish I'd done it sooner (4 yrs ago) as now I find that birds and tree have become more popular. Oh well. I'm excited for a job well done and to have a beautiful tattoo this week! Beans 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigGuns 4 Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 Thanks SeeSea, I have had it on my fridge for the last year so I know it's what I want and have for some time! Now to figure out how to get patients not to grab me during the day! I'm using Tegaderm to heal and will report back during the process. Tattoo day tomorrow!

BigGuns 4 Posted April 26, 2015 Author Share Posted April 26, 2015 Just added my new tattoo to the gallery... in my profile. Really happy with the work. I like my artist, Andrew Trull and am loving the Tegaderm healing... easy and almost pain free for the first 4 days! Looking good now! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
