with my arm, the most of the fish was pre-drawn, there were some changes made to the fish when the design was on my arm but the rest of my arm was just done with markers

but how long ago did u make this appointment? surprised he didnt ask you to check out the design as he was making it

I've never had major changes but I have had 2 of the sketches altered before I had the work done. I think if you are picking your artist based on his style he shouldn't be too far off of what you had in mind.

I had a piece free hand drawn on me, i had it redone 3x. I don't think the artist was to happy, since it took 2hrs+ but he never charged me for the drawing time.

Had the appointment for march set back in October. Haven't had any communication since but the deisgn isn't overly elaborate or anything but it does have a a good amount of design that's left up to him

saw the finished product. looks good man. can't wait till my appointment with jesse this friday

Typically a quick meet before the actual appointment would be set-up just to look at the final drawing. This gives the artists a chance to make changes before hand but then again all artists work differently I suppose.

Finished off my right leg today !!

fuckkkk having a fresh tattoo on your back suck. the desire to scratch it increase tenfold, and when it comes time to put on lotion i look like i'm doing yoga.

:denied: LOL!

x10000. Especially when you're reaching in the middle and all you're doing is stretching the skin even more..causing even more itch LOL.

My back piece itching was brutal. I would lay on my back on my freezing garage floor and the cold would help with the itching.

my elbow healed horribily lol, some of the ink didnt stick and it looks so off compare to the rest of my forearm :'( cant wait to do touch up before i can show it off haha

A month or so before tattooing areas like elbows and knees , moisterize them twice a day, its a ruff area .. I did that and my ink looks solid
