That is sooo sick, it's going to look killer when it's done. The colouring is fantastic, I love the purple sky, the moon..solid tat dude!

Nice tattoo! It looks great- did it hurt?

[citysnakes]

looks good. guess you gotta start shaving your legs on the regular now huh?

[gonesnakee]

THX folks! It only hurt for like 20 or 30 hours so far LOL actually yesterday was pretty good but there are some sensitive areas going on involved in this one all & all.
NOT looking forward to doing the devil girl at all! I have the other foot/ankle all done already so I kinow what to expect & its not fun.
Anyone that says Tattys don't hurt is either lying, drugged out or a brain dead meat puppet LOL Some folks have high pain tolerance as well. Some folks pass right out too LOL.
Some areas are really good & others suck of course.
Simple Tattoos are not too bad or any session 2 hours or less are pretty simple too.
Anytime you are there over 2-3 hours at a time your endrophins (sp?) are gone & it starts to wear on you Physically. Plus none of my work is "simple", multiple layers of color & full saturation. By the time you it that 3rd of 4th layer in the same spot it gets to be a wee bit tender LOL I'm looking forward to seeing it when its all done. Then it will be Whats Next? LOL Mark

Haha, I have a piece on my ribs that was about 7 hours, I did it in 3 sittings but daamn. I'm pretty skinny so it was....unpleasant..haha...to say the least. But I have also have a tat on my wrist that didn't hurt (much), one on my ankle that only hurt near the bottom, and one on my foot which wasn't too bad but it's small..I agree, the devil girl won't tickle lol. Colour isn't as bad as linework IMO but that's a tender spot lol.
My friend got a huge chestpiece, linework to full colour in ONE sitting! Friggin 7 hours!!! She took like two bathroom breaks...champ!

[gonesnakee]

Ya I have some pretty intense lining on my chest are it was a FUN sitting... NOT! LOL Mark





This piece took 11 sittings total, around 30 hours or so total?

Mmm I bet the spine and collarbones were the best part!

[gonesnakee]

Spines fine, collarbones suck I had huge bruises after them. Breastplate type stuff sucks to as does anything remotely close to nipples & armpits moreso than you would think anyway but not real bad. So far for me tops of feet, lower ankles & foot "knuckles" is the worst. Foot knuckles suck bad LOL Mark

Wow- that is an intense tattoo! I love the fangs on the snake skulls!! You are brave- I cannot imagine even a single spot of ink....I inflict enough pain on myself being a klutz- can't imagine willingly going through it. But they are neat- can't wait to see the finished deal- you will have to post pictures when it's all done. Best of luck- take a lot of Aleve.
