I got a tattoo today

as an early birthday gift from my parents.
it hurt like crazy and i felt like i was going to faint, but i made it
and now i love it haha

here's some (not great) pics of it.








tell me what ya think!

 

Wow, nice. I don't go for tats personally, and if I did it'd probably be something small. But I like that one. Why'd you pick that design?

 

I seen one that was similar to mine and i liked it alot
so i decided to take it up to my tattoo artist to see if he can draw something similar.

plus, it is a branch from a cherry blossom tree,
and it reminds me of my mom cause she loves cherry blossom trees

 

That's awesome Sara. How long did it take?

 

Thanks Brian,
it took about 2 hours or so
plus a couple 10 minute breaks in between.

 

holy shit!! that is a helluva first tattoo..

nice work..

did you realize what you were getting into? i mean the time and pain you were going to have to deal with? im guessin not or it woulda been smaller and in a less painful area.. lol

 

well, it's not my 1st tattoo.. it's my 3rd,
i have 2 smaller ones.. so i thought it was time for a bigger one haha

 

oh i just assumed from"i got a tattoo today" that it was your first..

thats what i get for assuming huh...

 

haha that's right! you assumed wrong..

 

2 hours isn't bad. It came out really nicely and I'm sure the artist was pleased to have such a beautiful canvas to work on

 

Wow. thats gorgeous. I was thinking, god dont let it be a tramp stamp!! Good choice!!

 

haha thanks brian..
i hope i was a good canvas hehe
i probably was pretty annoying though cause everytime he would stop and start again i would jump like i was scared haha.. i'm surprised he didn't fuck it up when i did it.

 

Thank you
and no, no tramp stamps for me..

 

Was is expensive?

 

Gorgeous, excellent choice.

 

$200
i was kinda expecting/wishing it would of been less than that.

 

That's really good work there. It looks like it turned out real nice.

 

200$ for that?! Here it would've cost at least 400-600$

It's georgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:cheers2:

 

$200 isn't bad for such a big tat. Both of mine were $40 each.

Here they are. The pics suck, but you can still make them out a little bit. The first one is a cardinal in attack mode.


This one is the catterpillar from Alice In Wanderland sitting on a mushroom and smoking a hookah. The green part of the mushroom cap turned yellow after it healed.

 

That's really cool, your tat has just gained my respect. I don't see the point in getting tattoos that are meaningless and are not representative of anything. It's a really beautiful piece of art attached to yet another piece of art (the body). Take good care of it for the first month, and I hope you receive enjoyment from it for their remainder of your earthly life.

Oh and is that guy on the TV in the second pic rolling a j?
