Just got my first tattoo! Ask me anything! Now with image goodness!

[opiate69]

Finally, at the age of 38, I got me some ink!

[zabet]

1. Where is the pic? n/t

[opiate69]

4. I'll probably post some pics after it heals a bit...

Unlessof course popular demand dictates otherwise.

[zabet]

13. I have not been brave enough yet to get one myself.

My daughter has 4 and they are great. Maybe one day I will
get the nerve up to face the needle (I swear that thing looks
as big as a gutter spike :scared:).

[opiate69]

18. It wasnt quite as bad as I expected..

and right now, it just feels kinda like I got a good sunburn.

[zabet]

21. That is what she keeps telling me.

ooooh pics!!

Looks great!! Nice ink! :bounce:

[opiate69]

23. Thanks! I think we've found our guy..

My wife and I have been wanting to get a bunch of work done.. I got her a new one for her birthday a couple weeks ago, and the shop has a buy on get one free deal (and it's not temporary.. it's their standard deal), so she got hers, and this one didn't cost me a dime! And we definitely like his work..

[zabet]

25. Daughter has one and only one inker she trusts and

recommends to friends. Your artist appears to be very talented.
Wow what a deal, buy one - get one. I bet my daughter wishes
Eddie (her tatt man) offered deals like that.

30. It IS as big as a gutter spike...

but after five inches go into the tattoo machine's handle and two go into the machine's motor, there's only about an eighth of an inch left to go into you.

[XemaSab]

2. What did you get?

:shrug:

[opiate69]

5. A skeletal wizard holding a staff.

3. Is it on your ass?

[opiate69]

6. LOL.. no.. my right forearm.

[VenusRising]

7. This thread is useless

What is your tattoo of?
Where is it?
Did it hurt?
Are you going to get another one now?


Ok, that's all I want to know. For now.

:hi::hug:

OE: Damn! Too slow!!

Show me pictures!! :headbang:

[book_worm]

8. Is it bigger than a bread box?

[opiate69]

10. hmm.. no, but it does almost cover my entire forearm

[opiate69]

9. LOL..

What is your tattoo of? See above!
Where is it? See above!
Did it hurt? A little.. overall it wasnt too bad, but there were a few times he had to go over the same spot 3 or 4 times.. that got my attention.
Are you going to get another one now? Almost definitely, although, I may need to see a dermatologist first .. he had a bunch of problema wth it.. said my skin was the worst he'd ever worked on.

[VenusRising]

11. I'm excited for you.

Sorry about the skin thing, though.

I'm sure that hearing you needed a dermatologist was weird coming from a tattoo guy.

I can't wait to see it! :bounce:

[opiate69]

20. updated the OP with a pic!

:smoke: :hi: :headbang:

[book_worm]

12. did you ever consider a tatoo of Fred and Ethel Mertz?

[opiate69]

14. lol.. only if they were having sex.

[book_worm]

16. I have that image in my mind

Ethel: Oh, Fred...yes, yes, yes!
Fred: Here I come, honey bunch.

[opiate69]

24. Skeletons have no skin, what is holding his beard on?

[opiate69]

27. Magic! He's a freakin' wizard, after all!

[FloridaJudy]

29. And wizards have magical powers

That can include growing hair on bone.

[Ava]

26. very cool.. but OUCH!

i got a henna tattoo a few weeks back with a friend while we were down in florida. we got matching peace signs:



your's look painful! so how bad did it hurt?

[opiate69]

28. Nice!

It didn't hurt too bad, except for when he had to go over the same spot a few times..

[DarkTirade]

31. Nice.

I've got a few planned, but unfortunately tattoos cost money... which I don't have at the moment. :(

[IntravenousDemilo]

32. So I guess you won't be donating blood for another year, then? n/m

[opiate69]

34. Sadly, no..

Actually, now that you mention it, I haven't donated blood in far, far too long..

[B Calm]

33. I'm not big fan of tattoo's.

I was drunk as hell when I got my tattoo in Newport, RI. in 1969.
