That's some awesome

Fri, 2012-12-21 09:46

That's some awesome artwork.

Just out of interest, why so much detail so high on the leg ?
Is it mainly just for you (and your Mrs) to see ?
 

Or is it just the start of a full leg and you just chose to start it that high ?

I can understand sleeves etc where a singlet or shirtless can display the whole thing, but the full detail of that won't be visible unless you're a speedo wearer or just like getting around in your jocks all day.  hehe.

 

Not being negative in ANY way, it's some great ink if that's what you're into - just curious about the location etc.

Nice art

Fri, 2012-12-21 10:52

Personally I'm not a big fan of tatoos, but that's a cracker! Gotta say it's a hell of a lot better than most. At $300 I think you would get the award for "Fishwrecked Christmas Bargain"

I love the idea of adding species as you tick them off, perhaps some extra incentive to get out on a game boat now? Not sure a tatoo of a blowie would cut it though.

 

As for beachsoul's comment, I respect his opinion, but perhaps could have worded things differently? Poor form indeed.

Great ink

Fri, 2012-12-21 22:24

Love the detail but feel for you doing 8 hours straight...that's dedication.

I can only last about 2 1/2 hours before I wimp out (well, on my back, at least). Had a portrait of my mum done a couple of years ago but it wasn't very good so I had it covered and then got a portrait of my mum & dad on the other side of my upper back. Don't have a very high threshold to pain...but it was what I wanted. Not something that is on display very often as it's a personal thing, but when I showed it to my dad he thought it was pretty cool.

What are you planning for the rest of your leg?

regards
rusty...

That's quality ink and certainly a quality price. 

I don't do tattoos personally but know enough to respect quality when I see it.

Didnt you get it the first time? Sure you are 'not a fan' but surely it takes less effort to not read the post about a topic you are NOT a fan of, definately less effort to not put up a several posts about it.

If you dont have anything nice to say, then STFU.

Just my opinion. IM NOT a fan.
