Welcome. There are a zillion very competent tattoo artists in the LA area. Do you have a particular style of tattoo you want?
-
Hiya, Cadena - from a fellow Texan (sort of). I won't recommend ideas as much as advise you to become familiar with the various styles of tattoo artwork. Educate yourself to what is possible in this media (almost anything) and locate the artists whose style also speaks to you (many started off as street artists). You can eventually decide upon and bring subject matter and references. The trick is locating the best artist to pull off your vision.

LOL!!!

Where are you located?

Welcome. I know one in Hawaii, but I'm sure someone else here will be able to chime in on socal or midcal artists that do historical tribal. On the other hand, whatever you get will mean to you just what you want it to. Pick a design (tribal or not) that speaks to you.

Not bad, Dimpsy. Welcome.

Judging from my past attendance at other beer tastings, you will also have the distinct advantage of teaching tipsy students. Typically they are quite forgiving, as long as your resource material continues to flow.

Cool, and welcome!!

Are you a fan of the bio-mechanical style of art? A great artist who specializes in that could really make your idea work, if you're into it . . .

99 times out of 100 designing your own tattoo will end up being a mistake. Find an artist who nails the style you want and bring him/her an idea or a piece of flash. This is my 2 cents.

I vote.

@hogg - Yep. He's probably late '70s or 80 years old now - so I suspect he probably got it mid-1950's or thereabouts.

You are assembling quite the collection of traditionalist's finest. What are you going to let him do?
-
Haha. Does that just mean "standing up"?

If you don't want to go bold (ie: black), consider light grey. White often turns into some shade of yellow-brown.

Joey does excellent birds - but usually very colorful. I'm anxious to see something which is more traditionally dark.

welcome!

REALLY enjoying this thread, thanks. So far I've only got my right sock finished, so I'll refrain from posting pictures of my own until I'm into my left leg (consult for which is finally scheduled for 20 days from now).
