Gotcha. For future reference, on photobucket, when you click on the picture you want to load, look on the right side of the page. There will be 4 choices; Email & IM, Direct, HTML, and IMG. Copy what is in the box next to IMG then paste it over here. That should allow the picture to show up normal.

Really like the heart. I think if I get something, it will be anatomical. I'm in the medical field, and love anatomy, so it would make sense.

What is the back piece?-that is a good sized piece.

Nothing quite like being big brother, haha

Yeah, the Pisces symbol took about 4 hours and the heart with connecting veins took around 5

Also, as a side note, and a piece of advice for first timers, make sure you trust your artist's work!

If you're going in for a custom piece, and their original sketch looks a little "cartoony" run for the door

Unless you want some cookie cutter tribal arm band....

So, that's a pisces symbol on your back? Cool that it's all original and with meaning. I will post pics of some of mine later.

I am the oldest out of 5. I wouldn't put my siblings names on me - over time, once we ended up disowning each other, I'd look like an ex-MCer with blotches after the tats were "removed". lol!

Yeah, I've never been the kind of guy to go into a parlor and browse the sample books.

With the two I have, albeit they're both rather large, I kind of built them up and took the description to the artist and we came up with the final design together.

Haha, hey I could understand about the sibling thing. Every situation is different though

New one took about 8 hours. We talked and he then drew it on me. That took about 3 hours in itself. We had lunch, he prayed on it (Buddist group prayer) and then about 5 hours to needle it. The middle serpent on the knife was what I had done in Germany. I wanted the triskele-and his work is everything else-based on the 4 elements-earth, wind, water, sun.

The other ones are much older-hearts are my 3 kids (Shamrock, Shillelagh, Leprechaun (my nicknames for them). 4th kid is SOL-I disowned him so no tat-haha.

Did he use a tattoo gun? Or go with the metal stencil?

It looks very cool

 

[Fbolt]

He used a regular tat gun after free-handing the design. His style is very nature-ish, somewhat Maori, which if I ever did get another, it would be Maori style.

his web page:

www.thaitattoo-angelart.com

It was his unique style that drew me to him.

Bringing this up-Heading to Australia and New Zealand in 2015 and will be looking at a Maori style tat-Anyone have any NZ area (christchurch, NZ) recommendations?
