Nice tattoo Cherry Would post my new un but it's basically just script on my wrist, nothing fancy. Psyching myself up to get one across my shoulder and collar bone but I don't have the cash at the moment sadly.

Just found a shedload of Ztrip albums that I forgot I even downloaded.

The tatt turned out really cool, CCF.

My snoo is going back to early shifts for the first time in a couple of years!. Fookin' hell, it feels good to get home at a reasonable time. My day just whizzed by too. :D

 

[masaz]

Just bought my mate some stuff he wanted, various little things but is making me smile cos he's been well stressed recently and I know it'll cheer him up when he gets 'em

 

[parttime crackhead]

I'm snoo happy with how it turned out!

First I've seen this, looks good. I'm still struggling with tattoo ideas, definitely want some sort of quote/lyrics but can't decide where or what. I keep changing my mind normally based on the mood I'm in at the time.

I reckon the best plan is to just bite the bullet & get it done, as long as it's not on my face then I'm pretty sure I wouldn't regret it regardless of what I got.

Latest idea is "You're a slave to money then you die", possibly on the inside of my upper arm. Might get one of my mates who's decent at drawing n shit to try & knock up a rough design to see how it would look.

 

[cherrycolouredfunk]

Cheers.

Yeah, i'd say just going ahead and doing it is the best way ONCE you're CERTAIN on what you want. I knew I wanted to get those words written on me for a couple years, just took me longer to come up with a design. Decided one week to do it as the timing felt right.

 

[parttime crackhead]

I'll never be certain, but fuck it. Like I said, I wouldn't regret it anyway. Two of my mate's have just came back from a weekend away with "The Log Council" tattooed on their arses (something to do with being drunk & shouting "I am an elder of The Log Council, you will obey my commands!" then spotting a tattoo parlour). I'd hardly be the first cunt I know to get a daft tattoo lol. I don't think either of them have a clue what The Log Council is.

How expensive are tattoos? I get paid the mora, I might just shout fuck it & go & get that done. Will the tattoo dude happily sit with you & try to work out different designs for what you want or do you need to go in with an exact thing? Will they charge more for this? Sorry for all the questions but I'm seriously considering doing this before I change my mind again.

One thing I will never do is get a spontaneous tattoo while drunk haha.

 

[cherrycolouredfunk]

A tattoo artist usually has a set rate by hour. For high street tattoo artists, this can usually be anything from 40 - 60 quid.

Will the tattoo dude happily sit with you & try to work out different designs for what you want or do you need to go in with an exact thing?

Aye, they'll sit with you in a sort of consultation and talk through some ideas with you. If you go in with an exact idea, they'll tell you if they think they will be able to do it, and if the sizing is right for the area on your body you want the tattoo positioned. After this they'll agree a price with you, then you make an appointment, they'll often ask for a deposit too. Then they may go away and tweak the design a bit themselves ready for when you next come in. It's during this time that you build up trust with the artist, as after all, you are allowing them to leave a permanent mark on YOUR skin which becomes a part of you

Most DECENT tattoo artists will refuse to tattoo drunken lads, as they see themselves as actual artists and value their work. I know one who actually refused to tattoo anywhere above the neck as she said it looked tacky, this was just her personal opinion which she applied to her work.

My recent one cost 35 quid. I sat down with the guy for ten minutes telling him exactly what I wanted, the words, the idea of a spiral. Made an appointment for later in the week. On the day of my tattoo he said it wouldn't work at all in a circular spiral, but showed me some things he'd drawn up as an alternative, and I went with one of those. We worked together to get the right thing. Trust you see, as it should be done

 

[parttime crackhead]

Aye, that sounds good. I want someone who takes a bit of pride in their work rather than some clown who uses a tattoo gun like it's a marker pen for drawing on drunk fools. Cheers for the info. Might check out some places at the weekend if I can get someone to tag along with me.

Fuck knows where some of my mates get their tattoos from tbh, no-one who see's themselves as an "artist" would do half the things these cunts have.

I know a boy with a swastika on his lip. Fuck knows where he got that done. He's a horrible little cunt. He also has the 2pac THUG LIFE tattoo hahaha.

 

[Evad]

inside of his lip? some places are more likely to do that than hands/face

 

[parttime crackhead]

Aye it's on the inside of his lip but if I was a tattoo artist & some horrible wee rat like this boy came in & asked for a swastika there I'd punch him in the mouth & tell him to come back when his burst lip has healed.

 

[cherrycolouredfunk]

End of the day, it's the artists right to refuse. Some tattooists might condone that sort of thing if they're into it themselves.

Then on the other hand, it's our skin and we have the right to self expression.

I VERY nearly asked him to do me some tears inside my index fingers when I got my wrist done last week. I wish I had now.

I think i'll do it when I get my six butterflies on my arm and shoulders for my 30th in a couple of weeks. Way I see it, is the webbing on a hand is rubbed together that much, that if it's done in a fine line it'll fade after a couple years.

 

[Evad]

aye there's plenty of places that will do nazi tatts there's a bit of a subculture within the tattooing scene.
there's a class buddhist guy round here who is all about reclaiming the swastika and includes friendly swazis in a lot of his designs

 

[TheSpade]

If I was a tattooist and some prick came in asking for a swastika I would refuse. I wouldn't want to be responsible for tattooing a symbol of hatred on someone.
