If you're going to do a half sleeve now but want it to be a full sleeve later, you will need to plan it accordingly. Like if you do a koi on your upper arm then you have to think that everything below it will be in water.

I would imagine that I'm not the only person with a sketch book or peg board of stuff I want to tattoo. I know several people will post designs on their instagram of stuff they wanna do as well.

Tom renshaw, doing realistic black and gray animal/nature has been his thing for longer than most folks have been tattooing. He's in Michigan, which is a little over 5 hours from Rochester.

Howdy, your English isn't that bad. Start doing some visits to shops to look at work that they've done and ask questions. Find someone who you feel comfortable with that can do the tattoo you want.

You got tattooed by rudy, that's all that matters. Your tattoo is just a souvenir of a excellent life experience. That cannot be copied.

I was born in springfield. Grew up in georgia and then spent the last 15 years in dayton.

@gougetheeyes @CultExciter can either one of you tell me why Tim Armstrong is narrating this?

because I sound too hillbilly to have done it?...haha

my buddy andy blair is working at resurrected in Syracuse. he does nice work and is a genuinely good guy.

the rest of the folks there do nice work as well, but andy is the only one i know personally.

False Cathedrals? Cause that's my jam.

it was song in the air, still looking for false cathedrals. I suppose it wasn't actually an early one. Haha. It was a lot different from us songs. Still good but not what I expected.

Be confident, embrace who you are and show love no matter how anyone treats you.

Devil worship

No database...not every piece of flash has been sold. Even when it has it is usually from one tattooer to another. Look at flash in shops is your best chance.

With that said, keep your eye out for flash by tron. Just a guess based on what info you gave.

According to an overly excited drunk fellow who was admiring flash in the shop, "tattoos invented skulls"

Witch hazel on a paper towel, blotting it on. Do it a couple times a day. It'll take it a bit to totally heal up, but that can help it out. Looks like a few red reactions I've seen. Don't put anything else on it, let it dry up.

@flowergirl I didn't see the picture so I'm not sure how bad it looks or what is possible to fix it and keep it as close to your original design. If you are so inclined, you can pm it to me and I'd offer any thoughts I can to help.

Other than my prior advice, that's about as much as I can do via the intervebs.

If they explained how it can be fixed, then just ask them when they can do it. Regardless of there being a "fault" or not...most tattooers want their work to look good and represent them well. Blow outs and migration are things that happen sometimes. Either way, I'd want to fix it if it were something I'd done. So it comes down to how everyone in the situation conducts themselves as to how it gets resolved.

Tried to watch but couldn't get into it enough to get past 2 or 3 episodes.

You're not doing it right!

I will be working in Biloxi, MS October 17-19th.

Thanks!

Can't believe that user name was still available.

Totally agree about bongrippers Satan worshiping doom. My favorite.

Sounds like a case of a broken ruler. Scales aren't relative to the individual. Life's hard so work harder.

I don't think it would be athletes foot because the "rash" is strictly where the tattoo is, I'll definitely keep you guys posted!

Skin sensitivies (Recently I've been getting a bit of dry patches a bit everywhere)

Really? I still say fungus.

The fungus that causes "athletes foot" can be anywhere on your body.

Fungus? Maybe some type of athletes foot. Closest thing I've seen to how your looks. First time I thing I've ever seen it on something during the healing stage. If you do find out what it is, I'd be interested to know.
