Here's a couple

Then one of my and my newborn for the heck of it.
I'm just not sure how my other arm would look if it was half b/g and half traditional color since there's no way to add color to what I have. I'm not worked about mixing themes. I like the look of traditional with a Japanese background. Just wish my traditional arm wasn't so dark and had more flow.
Next thing I'd like to change is darken up or do something to my mandal. Just seems a little bland. Maybe some dotwork inside or something to make it more detailed.

This is my first post in the General forum and I'm pumped to have a consultation for my back scheduled with Horitomo, in May. I have a ton of ideas and probably just as many fears, but I'm going to do my best at allowing Tomo to work his magic. Looking forward to the journey and appreciate all of the support in this online community.

I think you've got it right there. Neither of you will be having fun when the needle goes right into the Grand Canyon though!

Hey all,
I want to share my appreciation for all that you've bestowed on me as a long-time lurker. I'm constantly blown away by the tattoos and insights that folks post on this page.
I was born in the Midwest, am 29 years old, and moved to San Jose in 2008 to work with unhoused individuals. I'm the Project Manager for a ridiculously cool non-profit that provides opportunities for unhoused individuals to gain work experience through volunteer projects like beautifying the community. I'm fortunate to be living in a region where so many of my favorite artists live and frequent. I finally joined LST because I have some questions regarding an upcoming back piece that I will begin with Horitomo. For example: how will I scrub the plasma off that goddamn thing? Should I wear a specific material while healing? Can I just use a novelty sized Tegaderm sheet?
Thanks!
