i got my first tattoo when i was 16, an outline of a cross on my chest. My second tattoo was to cover up the first.
 
Cant say i felt attached to either, its been in the way of other stuff for nearly ten years now.

transplants were my favourite band growing up, so i got to using this username.
 
However, a couple of weeks ago i actually had a hair transplant, so now the username has more relevance to me

i don't think you have too much to worry about. I have been in car crashes, bike crashes, i spar with martial artists much better than me every week. People always comment on how fresh and new my tattoos look.
 
You need to live life my friend!

Its so true, he is so gentle with elderly people (my grandma etc) but whenever i see him he just wants to play fight!
Our tug of war record is 16 minutes! just for the record, i won in the end.
Molly looks to be a super happy dog! How have the first couple of days been?
 
Heres another one from the day she picked him up:

Awesome thread, i too have a snake!

not a stupid question at all.
 
looks like you picked a tattoo studio already, you may do well to get an appointment on a sunday though.
 
nobody can answer whether the artist will want to do it, you would have to ask them, thats also where you will get the best advice as to the best solution.
 
with regards to picking he artist, why don't you go in the shop and ask the receptionists advice?

3\4 sleeves for me, although they are somewhat pieced together.
 

It's a waste of good real estate.

Not entirely true. From my understanding, dragons are neutral, but the majority of the time tend to be good omen. There are many instances in which dragon fight humans. Tamatori the pearl diver running from Ryujin is a good example of a ryu/human conflict. Or Susanoo who slayed the dragon Orochi to save Kushinadahime. Or the dragon that was eating children that the goddess Benzaiten soothed with her beauty, and latter (in some stories) married the dragon. There are other instances in which a witch transforms herself into a dragon as well, and stories of multi-headed evil dragon. Although rare, there are certain instances in which ryu fight swordsman.
But as for your tattoo, less is more. If I were you Id just go with a dragon skeeve with nothing else, but thats just me.

I'd definitely leave out the samurai. The concept of a swordsman battling a dragon is a completely Western concept. You will never see man battling dragon in traditional Japanese tattoos. The koi and dragon existing in the same piece makes total sense because one evolves into the other. 
Post some photos when you get line work done!
 

Just get a dragon.
 
 

as @Dan said, there are no rules.
 
however, if you are getting something small on your ankle its worth considering that it may get in the way of something bigger at a later date!

i would be patient until your tattoo is healed, sometime blow out and stuff can die down when your healing process is complete!
