    Cool man. Gonna color it in any? It's very addictive. I have 4 myself and have plans for several more but they are a little exspensive. I love the ink but can't get any below the elbows since I work at a professional job. I'll be darned if I am gonna wear long sleeves in this blistering weather.

    Looks good man. I would like to get a Tattoo some day, but I have still yet to find anything that I would want on my body for the rest of my life.

    eventually it will probably colored in when i incorporate it into the rest of that arm's sleeve. my next will be to start on my left arm sleeve. it will be my family tartan/crest, and celtic weaving/knotting. i have to wear long sleeve shirts for work anyway so im good with the below the elbow thing.

    the place i would like to get my one arm done is about $150 an hour and one arm is about 20 hours or so. not quite as costly as some mods for your car but costly none the less.

    I like the philosophy with tattoos that you should never get one that would show if you had a suit on. So you're still good :)

    I have two myself and want to get another but I'm really particular about meanings of stuff. My last one was soo freakin painful. I have to have a higher pain threshold for the next one .

    None of mine hurt but one did sting. People look at me funny when I tell them that the one on my shoulder hurt worst than the one that runs across the middle of my back and over a big portion of my backbone. In all truth that one felt good....lol.

    i've always wanted to get a tattoo. but could never think of anything that i would be happy with forever... untill my daughter was born.

    i want to get my daughters name, henna red in arabic lettering on my forearm. i've been thinking about this same tat for about 3+ years, so i'm pretty sure that i'll be happy with it forever.

    now i'm just trying to come up with a kick ass design.

    There's a few pretty nice fonts that are arabian influenced but still read pretty well in English...unless your going for the more traditional appearance..

    yeah, i've thought about those. but i would like to design it so it looks arabic and harder to read her name in english. also would like to work in a gradient fill with solid henna outline, if that's possible.

    alex your tat is the exact location and size of what i'm wanting.

    i got it done by Bill Conner at Liberty tattoo on east ponce. I would recomend him any day, im also thinking about going to russ abbott who works at 13 roses, he does quality work but usually only large custom work.

    Alex, i plan on gauging them out to probably a 00. depends though, i have small ears i dont want it to look horribly huge.

    8 gauge.....my new retainer is clear so I've heard that you can see through it easier....oh well..better than taking it out all the time...
