I want some advice  Aside from soing something in the black circle, how should i improve that, i like it, but i'm not really happy with it BTW, here the line work done on Death Bear's tat  I take it this is the D.A.R.E lion?. as you can see, the leo symbol isn't poking out the bottom of the sleeve, i tried it and it look bad... just like a random mass of lines, looks much better on the shirt |

Dude, that's awesome. I'm thinking this will be a shoulder piece, most definitely. I don't think the leo symbol really ties in too well, though, I think I'm trying to force the Leo connection too hard. I don't mean to be a bother, but do you think you could do up a version with "To Resist Drugs and Violence" (link below for reference) instead of it? I think I may add some kind of banner to the bottom too, like right below his shirtline that reads drug free or something along those lines. I would also love to see this with some color. Logo: skyways.lib.ks.us/towns/Nickerson/Images/dare.jpg(I'm sorry if I sound really picky and douchey, I really do like how it came out ;D) |

Taker... I don't know what you're not seeing with that first design you threw up, I honestly think it's pretty damn killer as is.
And the DARE lion looks spectacular!

Logo: skyways.lib.ks.us/towns/Nickerson/Images/dare.jpg(I'm sorry if I sound really picky and douchey, I really do like how it came out ;D) Ok, well, i'll have to photoshop the text below the logo in, its a bit small to do accuratly by hand... also, the shading will be done in black and white as i'm not too happy at the quality of the colour pencils i use... i only used them on Adams because there wasn't that much to colour and flames can be coloured pretty messily, but i can add colour with photoshop so it should come out looking like colour pencil. Also, since its a peice that is roughly as tall as it is wide, you could ad a banner above and below it. Heres a clearer picture of it  Cheers Bomb, but i think the black in the circle and between the arrow heads on the bottom peice is a bit full on imo... but meh |

No problem Abomb... not too happy with the rivets, but it was on a small scale so i'll let myself off... anyway, any tattooist worth his salt can make them the right circular shape

Hopefully, this Saturday I get to go back to Lubbock and see Mike again. I'd be pretty damn okay with that. lol |

Ahh... i know what i reminds me of, its been bugging me since i drew it up  Anyway, Death Bear, here is your tattoo  As you can see, it isn't coloured and doesn't have the phrase... unfortunatly my photoshop skills aren't great so i advise you to ask someone like Focalin or someone else who can use photoshop and ask them to add them But as for me, this is as far as i can go |

My second was done by Dusty something, I've forgotten his last name. He has a shop near Cincinnati, OH, but he was down in Richmond for a convention when I got this piece done.  Holy crap i'll google him i gotta get that tattoo frickin bad. It's insane. |

I wonder how many "first tattoo regrets" this thread will produce...?
Anyway, I am going to get my 7th done this Saturday, although it is actually completing my half sleeve, so I guess it is technically part of my 5th. It's time to stop counting these damn things.

Which one should I get, WF Inkers?  Starbird (Rebel emblem)  Jedi Order  New Jedi Order  Renegade Squadron  (no "JEDI", also don't judge based on image quality) Whatever I get would probably be put on my right bicep. EDITED, with better images. |
