Goafer Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Had another crack at it (last one I promise, even I'm getting bored of the alterations!). I've made the sailor lady bigger and flipped it. I figure I wouldn't want the bulk (her head and body) near my wrist if I did get it. The only thing I'm thinking now is how well white works. Just leaving it bare skin seems a little odd to me and I'm not sure how well all that white ink would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could be hardcore and get it done in UV reactive ink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goafer Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 As much as I love UV tattoos, I don't think it would suit the ye olde pinup tattoo! Do want: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 That would be fucking badass. Apart from hand tattoos being (one of) the most painful one you can get, I think that's one of the best ideas since time. How visible are they when in light?

Either invisible or so faint you wouldn't notice. It only reacts in UV light! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwolf Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Either invisible or so faint you wouldn't notice. It only reacts in UV light! ^ White tattoos are alittle more visible than uv, but they have the risk of turning yellow or being completely invisible even in uv light. I'd suggest making the girl wear different colours, such dark blue/navy? Might be better for you to see when its inked for sho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPAMBOT4000 Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I'm almost tempted to get a triforce on the back of one hand done in UV ink. Think it'd be one of those you regret a couple of years later though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it'd be one of those you regret a couple of years later though... this is why i prefer piercings, they are (in the most case) only permanent while you keep the jewellery in. I'm thinking of doing another piercing myself... just getting the courage to do one that isn't my earlobe... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwolf Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Meh I still need to get my other lobe pierced, its not even a case of being scared, I just keep forgetting about it. I prefer tattoos, but I'm still wanting to go to japan and move to canada, which means I can't get tattooed at nine, their waiting list is ridiculous.

Letty Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I don't have a preferecne between piercings and tattoos Which is a shame, as I am hoping now to train as either a piercer or a tattooist as my lifetime occupation. Also an update on my piercing front; Currently have 16. 2 stretched lobes - 4mm and 16mm 3 plain lobes 2 helix(with an industrial bar) inverse navel 2 nipples labret monroe tongue 2 nostril 2 dimples! (re-pierced as the first ones didn't settle - this pair are getting on a lot better!) All self done except 2 of the lobes which are really old and were gunned.

Goafer Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I'm more concerned she put "2" nipples instead of "both". How many do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Maybe it's a monoboob that has 3 nipples, lets not limit the options here, it could be anything! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raining_again Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 I'm getting another piercing on my right lobe soon, I've decided. How many have you got? I'm trying to find some piercing corks off t'internet that aren't from some distance land (also known as teh usa) but having no luck. Failure. I want to pierce my tragus, but I don't know if I could without some sort of protection for my ear! And less likely to fuck up placement if its held tight too.

nightwolf Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Most good gear you should use is mostly the usa, the uk for the most part is very behind on piercing crap, half the country still uses guns, when its been proven time and time again that they are clinically bad to use.

chairdriver Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 How many have you got? I have two piercings atm - my right earlobe and my left eyebrow. I'm ridiculously happy with my brow piercing - looks far better than I expected it to. Earrings piss me off a bit, because it's so hard to find nice masculine earrings.

Goafer Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Goafer will you be getting the [FMA CH103 spoilers] tattoo? :p I'd consider it! Although I'm happy with just one arm at the minute.

nightwolf Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 and yet I didn't bleed at all for my double. Its odd how that works. My eyebrow piercing on the other hand was awful, blood all over the place :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I've always been considering getting this on me somewhere, minus the background, since I love the Rogue. How much you think something like this would cost tattoo gringos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwolf Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 It entirely depends on the artist. Some charge by the hour (anything from 40-100 an hour) whereas others will charge you for the whole piece as it stands. So it depends who you go to. I imagine it won't be cheap at that size, but then if you truly want something thats going to last til you die, why skimp on the price? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
