Hey guys.

I'll be in Dallas, TX this coming week, and I'm thinking about getting my next tattoo while I'm there.

Anyone have any experiences with any shops in Dallas, or around there? Any recommendations for good places?

Thanks!
=)

Hi, I'm new with a quick question.

Has anyone gotten a tattoo at Masterpiece Tattoo in Salem, NH? I'm thinking of going to Dan Carroll for this piece; his gallery is gorgeous, he has decades of experience, and if you look at the pics of the shop, there are a bunch of trophies that I don't think are for softball. ;-)

The image I want is that in my icon. A bigger version is available here. It's a memorial tat for my husband, who drew it shortly after we were married. I think he always meant to get it himself, but never got around to it. My plan is to get it on the outside of my right calf, 4-5" tall.

So... any love for Masterpiece in Salem NH? It's right up the street from my house, so it does have the advantage of being handy, but I'm not far from Boston, either.

I have just found this commuinty & its so awsome I thought I would share one of my foot tattoos ! Its a version of a peice of art work by Angelique Houtkamp

I am setting up to get a new tattoo. I saw this local artists drawing of a Seahorse and sort of fell in love with the image. I sent a picture of it to my tattoo artist and he didn't seem to get it, he said he would be able to draw a better seahorse. I would love some input. I have the artists permission to post this. I like it and think it would be cute, but if too many people think it looks stupid, I won't get it.

Gather 'round, ye Lovecraft fans, and despair!

i just recently got my hip done and i was just wondering how the healing process went for anyone elses hips. i have my ribs done and that healed just fine, the only difference between that and the new one is that i've been using petroleum jelly on this one, instead of the tattoo goo that i was using on my side.


around the edges of the tatto it's red and the tattoo itself is swollen, but doesn't feel hot to the touch. also, i wore jeans the past few days (dumb idea, i know, i thought it would be alright) so i don't know if that's what caused the irritation or if the petroleum jelly did.


thanks in advance :)

so because i'm so scatterbrained, i lost the sheet that my tattoo artist gave me on instructions...

i just want to make sure i'm doing this right.

i've been washing it with antibacterial soap and putting A&D on it 3 times a day for 2 days now. its the 3rd day now, should i be putting A&D on it still, or switching to a lotion?

I got Aveeno Daily moisturizing lotion... is that okay?

i just don't want to mess it up XD

how often do i put the lotion on?

newb to the community but not to inkage. usually my tats have been small or gamer related but i just got my first sitting of the first really meaningful original tat ive gotten. the outline and some tentacle shading is done. one more sitting should complete it. heres what i got so far!

Got my other foot tattooed a few months ago and forgot to post it. It will be featured in the Barred For Life book that is due to come out October 2010 featuring Black Flag tattoos. Tattoo was done by Chris at Golden Rule Tattoo in Phoenix, AZ.

yay i got my tattoo today!! it really didn't hurt nearly as bad as i thought it would! i barely noticed it, actually. XD

anyway, onto the pictures!

( oh tattoo fun times )

I just got my newest tattoo yesterday. It was done by Jeremy at Artkore in Normal, IL.

( Robot Roll Call! )

The owl/moon piece is older. I got it when I was 18, and I hate it. But I think the MST3K crew changes everything-- of course they're making fun of it, it sucks! I was going to get it covered or redone, but now I think I'll leave it. :)

My other nerdy tattoos are Leela on my leg, and the Triforce on my shoulder. ( Pics behind the cut! )

I did this on my boyfriend's bandmate. He wanted a cheeseburger. I was more inclined to.... not do a cheeseburger, lol So I pitched him with this idea. His dog is a Boston Terrier.




The right ear is diminished because it wraps around a little... and I am anxious to see how it heals. It will be lighter than it appears here and I'm hoping that's the case in the crossbones.

This is tattoo #9.

i was reading an article about hip hop artist The Game and a tattoo he just got inked.

http://www.rap-up.com/2009/12/09/game-shows-loyalty-to-pharrell-with-tattoo/

the article later revealed a piece he is intending on getting. the piece is influenced by the evolution of video games.

so i'm getting my tattoo tomorrow. I'm pretty nervous!! :S

Is there anything i need to know/do beforehand? if i want to play around with sizing and placement, do i have to bring multiple sizes of the drawing i made? or can they do that there?

thankss

hey guys, this is my first post here. Sadly, I have no tats to share but I do have a question
I want to get a tattoo in this text but I don't know what it's called!


(sorry to the owner, I don't know whose tattoo this! and sorry about the hotlink.)

sorry if it's kind of blurry, that was the best I could find. But I need some help!
