So I know it's been a while since I've really posted in this thread a lot, but I was wondering if someone could help me out. I have an appointment on Monday at 6 to get my second tattoo. The design I want is posted below. I was wondering, is there any chance someone could blow it up a bit without making it pixely, or possibly even redraw it bigger (and maybe on a white background?) If anyone has a little time to mess around with this it would be much appreciated.

If no one steps up, I'm sure the shop has a printer, and a scanner to make it bigger for ya. As long as they aren't an, "off the wall shop" - you should be fine. Asher may be able to help you out though!

www.metamorphosistattoos.com/ that's the shop that I'm going to, by the by. Ed's doing my piece. At the moment I just have the design on my iPhone, ha... trying to see if I can't get something a little more hi-res and detailed to print off for him.

Plus, it's always good to see someone going to a talented artist.

Roughly 7-7:30 today. Got it done at the aformentioned Metamorphosis, cost me 80 bucks and took.... maybe 45 minutes? Rough estimate? Me and my friend went back to back and were in and out in two hours total. Found some 1% Hydrocortisone to put on it for tonight, will get a fresh bottle of A+D tomorrow. Here's some quick phone camera pics, better pics will come when it looks less gnarly!

If you see this, TAKE THE HYDROCORTISONE CREAM OFF! That may be okay, but it's been known to pull the MOST ink out of tattoos than anything else.
If you have a fragrance free lotion, use that instead for the time being.

I don't think I have any type of lotion is the problem... would it be worse to leave on the cream overnight or let it be dry?

I'd assume leaving it dry. I would recommend getting A&D as soon as possible though.

Dude I got my tattoo done by Ed at Metamorphosis too! He's crazy good at what he does, here's what I got done: I remember some of the other stuff he'd done and I saw what he did for you and I feel like I didn't challenge him enough! I mean the guy really has a knack for what he does and all I did was slap together a tattoo design (In Microsoft Word no less) in Old English text. The guy can do anything really, but I'd love to go back there one day with something a little more intensive than just flat black text. I just live pretty far away from Kingston, around an hour, hour and a half. Your tattoo looks ace though, take good care of that. It'd be a shame for Ed's work to be tarnished.

Oh too cool man, small world. I live really close to Meta, I can literally walk there in ten minutes or drive there in like... three. So you'll probably see more of Ed's work on me in the future. The man is an intensely good artist and a really chill guy.
I would post the piece my friend got, but that's probably a bit rude. If you're on Facebook though, I think he said he's going to put it on there (it's an octopus, she also has a squid that he did). It came out beautifully, and I felt the same way you do, like I wanted to come back with something more challenging for him.

I don't know how old you are dude, but if was going to get that many music related tattoos, I'd go for something a little less obvious. Artwork or lyrics are a less subtle nod, and you won't look like such a walking billboard.
