Ok. My guy told me it would take about a week to peel and everything and be ready to start filling in. Does that sound about right?

Filled in the upper arm portion Friday afternoon. Still hurts like a mother! This being my first one, all I had to go on was what people told me it would be like. And everyone always said the outline hurts the worst. Horse shit!

I went and talked to him yesterday. He said we'd start filling it in Friday and he'd go as long as I could stand it.

Well it's not peeling anymore, but the skin still being raised? This is my first tattoo ever so I have no idea what the after effects usually are. But if you run your finger over it, you can still feel some of the lines a bit. Does that mean it needs to continue healing or am I good to go now? (And here's a fee pics of the outline so you can see what it's gonna look like)

You've heard of good ideas that were poorly executed...well to me this is the other way around. I found this when I was looking for Samoan/Polynesian arm/shoulder/chest ideas. Looks like he got a bra tattooed on. I don't think it would have been nearly as bad if he had've let a little more skin show through. Just too much black.

Here's the outline. As soon as it heels I'm going back to get the rest done.

Hey guys, new to the forum and don't have a tattoo yet. About to commit to my first one and I have just one question that I'd like to know beforehand. I'm planning on getting a half sleeve that goes up over my shoulder, covers part of my shoulder blade on my back and my entire left pec. I'm just curious about how long/how many sittings it will take to finish. The design I'm going for is going to be something similar to what The Rock has.
