One chest panel is going to make you look lopsided. Gotta do the other side now.

And with both chest panels done, you'll look top heavy so you'll have to do a leg. But then you'll look lopsided, etc...welcome to getting tattooed

Yeah, this is not going to end with another chest panel. Start saving! :)

The good news is that when you get enough tattoos, you're right back at having only one.

Lol, I think you guys are right. The worse is since the wife is right there with me, there is no-one acting as the voice of reason.

Lol...Just move on to full torso and give in.

How was your session with Kore? I assume he was every bit as genuine as I think he is.

Absolutely! He is a very intelligent, well read man. We spent about an hour just talking about philosophy and the way we approach our lives before we started doing anything else. His apprentice Adrian was great, and Kim was a sweetheart.

I am so glad we decided to work with them. Every part of the experience was great. They treated us like we were old friends that they had known for years. They truly bent over backwards to make us comfortable and put us at ease. My wife loved working with Brenda, and she couldn't be happier with her tattoo.

After being treated so well and being so happy wit the results, I couldn't imagine working with anyone else. We will keep going back until they throw us out.

I had my first session on my first tattoo with Kore Flatmo this Friday. I went in with a weird combination of being very excited and very nervous at the same time. Needless to say everyone was great and it was a great experience. I have to go back for another session to finish in November.

Even though I'm not done with my first tattoo, I have caught myself thinking through what I would like to do for my other chest panel. I am worried this is going to get expensive. I am blaming all of you for this.

Welcome to the forum. Please post some pics.

Hi Juan. Welcome.

Here is the tattoo my wife had done at the same time I was getting mine.

By Brenda Flatmo Plurabella Studio Cincinnati, Ohio

Well here is my first tattoo. Done by Kore Flatmo at Plurabella Studio in Cincinnati. WE got around four hours done yesterday. I will be back right around thanksgiving to finish it. It was a great experience KOre was great to work with, he is a true gentleman, and a credit to his profession.

Seeing jokers like that in action reminds me of the reasons I was leery of getting tattooed in the first place. I was scared of getting stuck with the kind of junk that I've seen on that show. Most of the tattoo's I see around here are shit too. It wasn't until I found this place that I was educated as to what a tattoo could be.

When I tell my friends about my upcoming tattoo they ask why I would drive so far, and why is it so expensive. They tell me "my buddy can do that for a couple hundred bucks." I politely say "no, I don't think he can." One of my friends got mad at me, and I asked him if he would buy a discount parachute. He said "sure if I could save money."

I don't get it.

what, where, and by whom?

A dragon on my left pec and shoulder by Kore Flatmo.

Three more days until I get my first tattoo.

HI there

Very much this

Have a Fatboy as well

...also a fan of pretty much any motorcycle. As long as you're in the wind.

They sure do use a lot of ice in Nowwhere, OK.

Old Triumphs get a pass' date=' new Triumphs ... sorry.

Only kidding. I have a Harley Fatboy and a Yamaha Road Star. I love all motorcycles.[/quote']

I have both. A '68 Bonneville and a '97 Thunderbird.

About what I'd expect from a "biker" that rides a honda :-)

I ride a Triumph, it that ok?

I like rewatching them too. Over the last week I watched Troy, Stewart and Valerie again.

I liked seeing Stewart in his LST T-shirt.

Hi Tyler.

Wow, we sound like an AA meeting.

this is by zach nelligan. straight up team logos are lame, but I’m totally down with a tattoo like this one. Zach also posted another baseball tattoo with the diamond and some other things incorporated. It was really awesome.

I love baseball-grew up playing it-so at some point I know that I’d like to get a baseball related tattoo.

edit-the one thing i don't like about this tattoo is the mustacheod gentleman. i really don't like the whole 1800s/1900s gentleman with mustache designs, but this is still an awesome sports tattoo. if i'd have gotten this, the dude just wouldn't have the mustache.

I'm with you on this one. I like this tattoo, but anything with someone else's logo is lame.

a friend of mine applied to be a "canvas" for this show. i tried to talk him out of it but he was set on a "free tattoo". the lady called him and interviewed him saying they were looking people wanting full sleeves/chest/back tattoos. fortunately it never ended up happening.

He dodged a bullet there.

Seems like that may be a little excessive for opening a box or even cleaning a fish.

Sometimes you really need to open a box. I don't clean fish I use the bass-o-matic.

I've never seen a classy one. Of course I don't understand tattooing someone else's logo on your body.

I start my sessions in January or 2012...so this coming January.

I get my e-mail notifications on my phone.....bad idea. Every single time my phone twitches or makes a peep I think it is PluraBella e-mailing me back. The wait is worth it though...it doesn't get any better than Kore in my opinion.

Same here. If you think spam pisses you off normally, wait until you are waiting for a study. Everytime the phone dings I check it and its always spam. Dicks.

last i was told I was going to be one of the 7 dwarfs' date=' flynn ryder or a princess :([/quote']

I vote princess.
