So is anyone going to this I'm thinking of busing to Surrey then taking the skytrain down. Will I be seeing any of you guys there? :P

Ex-lurker here. Got this from Greg Christian on Saturday. At first I wanted it to wrap a little bit with the wings spread a little wider, but Greg recommended I do it like this so that the whole thing could be seen directly from the front. I am glad as shit I listened to him-I'm so happy with the way it fits in the space (right shin)

Both are GREAT pieces but I just LOVE the wolf head :)

It takes time to heal, but it is so worth it in the end. So happy that you love it. Doesn't it feel good to finally say you've had the experience? How did you do during the session?
Yeah I agree its definitely worth it. And during the session I did good I could definitely feel it on the wrist and near the ditch and elbow everywhere else was good. Took only 3 breaks one being for lunch after the outline. The shading was the most pain haha after 5 hours he asked if I wanted to stop and I had to cause I couldn't take it anymore :p when its healed gunna go back for another 2 hours of shading but I dont think it'll be as bad. Hopefully :p

thanks! Im just worried that it might look like shit when its done healing because i loved it when it was done:confused:

I got my first tattoo Thursday and the artist told me to leave the bandage on for an hour then have a shower and wash it with some mild soap so I did that and it didnt start scabbing until around noon the next day. He told me to apply h2Ocean 3 times a day and Im worried about my tattoo because it has some scabbing ( which I know is normal) and has like white on top of the scab (could be flaking I dont know) but it kind of worries me... any ideas?
-
Just got this done today its my first tattoo i sat in the chair for 5 hours and when its healed I have to go for another 2 to finish the shading

tell your coach that you will be training, not just the moments of action where you might be slashed over your forearm. cardio training go! run up a hill or two! :)
Yea i could always do that thanks!

@vPooch Listen to your body. First few days will be swelling, then the flaking/scabbing. If your forearm gets a lot of play in lacrosse, you'll just want to make sure it's covered up for safety and hygiene until its healed.
Thanks yeah I'm probably just gunna tell the coach that I'll be out for a week tops because I wanna make sure its healed before going back since I dont want to mess it up

It will be on my forearm and in Lacrosse that is an area where you get slashed alot and was worried about ripping the scabs off and I also heard that excessive sweating could push a little bit of the ink out :/

Hello everyone I searched and couldn't find a topic on this. I play box lacrosse and have my first tattoo booked for Thursday how long should I wait to get back to playing after I get it done? Thanks!

@vPooch As you learn more about Japanese tattoo you'll see that there are certain elements that traditionally go together, and Karajishi-Botan (the lion and the peony) is one of those combinations.
Click this link for a snippet of an interview between Crystal Morey and Horimasa about some of the dos and don'ts of traditional Japanese tattooing, and if it continues to interest you then get to researching, son! The article in full is interesting, as well - I think le google will help you find it. There is a lot of great info out there, it's up to you to find it! Hopefully this is a good (albeit tiny!) jumping off point.
Yeah I LOVE the traditional Japanese artwork and the meanings behind it I plan on sticking to mostly Japanese tattoos. I will check the link after school

Also if you don't mind me asking what's the symbolism behind that I've never seen anything like that before
