Can someone explain what the difference is between traditional and neo-traditional? I've seen this term used on several sites.

Wow that's incredibly expensive. Any decent size tattoo is going to cost thousands.

I really like the colors.

I really love lady head tattoos and how they can be drawn so many different ways. I really like them drawn traditionally with depth to them. I've been thinking about getting a day of the dead one on my inner forearm. What do people think about the day of dead lady heads?

Just added another image. This time a Shishi. It was actually a cover up for a really bad black and gray dragon.

I haven't faced that many negative responses probably because I only have half sleeves. Only a small portion of them is visible when I wear short sleeves. I haven’t stepped up to the forearm. I’m trying to decide right now whether or not to go on my forearms. I work in the corporate business world so this would be a big decision. I do get asked “what do they mean” when meeting new people. I'm really really really sick of that.

Just uploaded one image of a woman with a snake.

After reading some of the posts on here I decided to finally join. I'm from CT and have two half sleeves. One Japanese/Chinese and one American traditional. Most of my work is done by Grez at Kings Avenue in New York.
