Just got this done recently, this was the first touchup and I plan on getting another one this week some time. It's actually a LOT lighter than it shows in the photos.



Here's it in stages.










^^In that last picture and the one were all color was added I was bleeding pretty good. I've got roughly 7 1/2 hours into it so far and I've got another session to go.



Show off your tat's here! Apologies if this thread exists already, never found one when I did a quick search.

 

Were you dead in the outline pic? Never seen a living person so pasty before! Haha sorry just had to say it

 

I think it was the lighting, I had white lights in that room.

 

Looks nice and very original...but I'm a blank canvas so there isn't anything but scars to show off...

 

Just in time for Halloween. Nice.

 

Just started on my collection yesterday-

My wife got me this one, but I'm getting another before the end of the month myself.

 

Thanks, its actually the album cover for Iron Maiden's "Fear of the Dark" album. Always loved that cover.
My last session was last month. I'm aiming for another touch up Friday.

 

I inked the panther on my 50th birthday...Much like my Dad's but, I added blood from the claws.

The flag is the Texas Lone Star flag for the field with the US flag stripes waving in the breeze.

 

I'm contemplating getting some ink, I just have this massive fear that i may be shooting myself in the foot if i get my tats where i want them (forearms) in regards to future employment. In for ideas too.

 

Thats why I got mine on my bicep. I can show it off if I want to, and can cover it if I need to.

 

I have one on each forearm. The only time I can remember them being an issue was when I was working as a printer/copier service technician and my employer mandated that I had to wear long-sleeved shirts on the job. He provided the shirts so, I didn't mind...
