It's been stinging and itching alot if I move my arms or boobs, so my normal walk has been reduced to REALLY light and and level movement which is making me pretty slow (yes my boobs bounce to much when I walk normally lol), and I'm too afraid of drawing atm, though it should be healed enough tomorrow where i can get back to my portfolio once again. For those who dunno what all is on my chest, it's Pyramidhead with his blade from the Silent Hill series, Mad Moxxi from the Borderlands games on the other side, and a very colourful Barn Owl skull with some feathers in the center, along with some shadow-like/immaterial-esk tentacles for the frame~ :3c
BUT ANYWAY! I just got this done a few days ago, and surprisingly enough, it didn't actually hurt much during the session, besides the parts done on the clavicle area. Everything besides the center party had already been done for a while, and I'm pretty happy with how it's turning out. All that's left now is to fill in some areas that still aren't black, and to shade in the tentacles that are framing everything. Once I go back in for the finishing touches and it's fully healed, I'll be modeling the finished product for Oni Photos Studios's Empty Decks project, as advertisment for the guy who did this amazing tattoo, and the two tattoo shops he owns!
For those who are interested in what modeling I've done so far, check out my model page on Facebook here, I've got TONS of awesome photos on there, including some REALLY recent ones too, and I'd always love some more likes for my page~! *blows kisses to everyone*

Luckily for me, Matt's got some of the lightest hands in industry, so it could've hurt ALOT worse, not to mention it barely hurt this time around cause I had started my ADHD medication, which atleast with Adderall is known for dulling your senses to pain a bit. My chest is like the boniest place on me though, so I bet having it done without such light hands would probably have made me flail like tons, I'm so sorry for your friend! ; 3;
Aren't there different kinds of bases for coloured ink? I remember Matt talking about it with someone once cause they had mentioned a friend with similar allergies. You may wanna try looking into that, cause if so, you could still possibly get colour done on you somewhere, it may just be less commonly used~ ; u;

i am looking into but i am staying FAR away from reds and yellows do to the high sulfr content, even in natural inks. ;.; but I think i can get natural blues. it is sad as i wanted the child boss inorganic from the anime BIRTH. ;,; but meh i will get some blues and black all over. ><
It's stuff that represents me~ The part on the left is PyramidHead, from a game series called Silent Hill, that I've loved since I was young, and he kinda represents my view on horrific thing, cause I often find freaky/creepy things adorable like I do with PyramidHead. The center is an Owl Skull with feathers, which represents my colourful and uplifting view on the past, and all things dark and brooding. The part on the right is Mad Moxxi, from Borderlands 1 and 2, who represents alot of my inner self, along with my overall love life, you can look her up to get a better feel about that part if you like. And the framing around all of it are whispy tentacles, which are the last thing to be finished (they still need to be shaded in), and besides just fitting in well with everything, theme wise, I also have a great love for all kinds of tentacles, and all creatures that have them. :3c
My first tattoo was actually on my crotch, right above my "bits", but surprisingly enough, it didn't hurt at all, though it was much smaller than this one! This one hurt quite a bit, but only on my sternum and clavicle, everywhere else barely ever hurt, and only if it had been worked on long enough. I had the luck of getting it done by one of the lightest hands in the industry, so that probably helped too! xD
I say go for it anyway though, if you have a tatt idea you want bad enough! I was afraid for quite a while too, but it doesn't actually hurt as bad as you'd think. Even so, I'd definitely suggest not getting one until you're certain about what you want and where on your body you want it, cause you can't erase a tattoo and put another over it! (well you can, but it's a long separate process, and I heard tatt removal hurts atleast twice as bad as getting the tatt you're removing) :3c

Oh cool! Minne started out vague too, you can take tons of time to make the perfect on your own, but I also suggest gathering thoughts on the ideas from your friends, and possibly from tattoo artists too, if you have any shops in a short distance that might be willing to chat it up with you! :3
