That's absolutely beautiful

<3 thank you bb~

THIS IS PRETTY COOL

omg that is sooooo pretty! and nice job being able to sit through something so large as a first! I know my first was scary and tough especialy since my family worked me up to think it was alot worse XD

hahaha~ The pain was definitely something I wasn't sure about. I can take quite a bit of pain but prolonged pain leaves me feeling nauseated. Every time she'd move to a new spot I'd get that wave of sickliness before the endorphins kicked in

yurp that is so same here I been contemplating getting a larger one down the road (gotten two smaller ones) just kinda fearful of how much I can handle XD

From personal experience, the back is where needle pain was the lowest I felt. Mine took almost six hours, and I spent at least two hours out of that asleep.

thats what I've heard I know personaly the one on the back of my neck was fine untill it was on the spine that HURT lol

Yeah... spinal needling is mucho ouchies.

Holy crap this is GORGEOUS

thanks! <3

THAT LOOKS SO GOOD.
I can't even imagine what it'll look like when it's done ^^

Thank you! The tat artist specializes in dotwork so it's going to look AWESOME

Oooo, awesome. That could be a punk rock album color, that's rad XD

Badass! :D That's a lot of work for a first time. Great work.

AAAH this is so cool!! Congrats on the ink c': ♥

looking wicked thus far 8D

This is so beautiful! Oh gosh! <3

Woaaaaah dang that is looking amazing so far! It's huge for a first piece as far as I understand tattoos. I'm glad Poshfox was there with you! Gummy bears seem important for the process :3

It is very awesome. :D

Ahhhh this is gorgeous!!!

I fucking love this, this is totally my style

I wanna have a deer skull tattoo on my thigh, with antlers and all, some flowers, and a dream catcher between it's antlers, kinda cliché, kinda hipstery (that's a paradox) but antlers are too awesome

Ahhh!!! It looks so awesome!!

AMAZINGGGG

nice ink. cant wait to see the end product

Congrats on the ink

That looks phenomenal. My sister's been out to get a lot of tattoos before and I've been able to see some very intricate work by her tattoo artist. To get such detailed art done like that, you must have proper endurance. \o/ Well done to you! Good luck on the next sitting!

Looking nice, the only thing bolder would be getting this as a tramp-stamp.

:I this really wants me to get a bigger piece possibly because that is so damn good.

Ooooh, I love that piece! It looks wonderful so far, and once you finish it up I'm sure it'll look phenomenal! I just got my sixth piece myself and was still for three hours for it myself, so I tooootally get it. The color and shading is just a smidge more painful, but not TOO bad compared to the linework. Can't wait to see the colored version! Your artist does some /really/ amazing linework from the looks of it!

It already looks lovely. The finished piece is going to be amazing :)

I'm so excited to see it done~ Would have continued to sit if we had the time XD

Congrats...! Nice work, and nice design!

woah!!! that looks absoloutely badass and super cool???

thanks!

well, it's permanent, so you'll likely get that chance ;D

it looks amazing! i would kill to know your interpretation! ;D and congrats on your endurance! i was called i had the perfect first time, since i had a smal one on a good place and indeed, it didn't hurt at all.

The cat skull is both A. I love cats and B. I collect bones and C. I see beauty in nature and bones are the remnants of a life you may never know, and D. Nothing lasts forever.
The plants are all native to my homestate, Tennesseee. The sycamore leaves are for my dad, who grafted several clones off a sycamore he loved as a boy. Now there are clone babies of that tree in my grandparents yard, and in his yard. A lot of my pets are buried beneath it too. The wildflowers are for my mom, who grows them every spring in the backyard, and the queen anne's lace is my favorite flower since a young age. They're also symbolic of protection ;u; Then the dandelions are representative of making wishes~

Sorry, that was a long descrip, but I put a lot of thought into what I wanted ;u;

first of: happy new year, might it be wonderfull for you!

and now: i don't mind at all, to the contrary, i love tattoo-explanations and while i can somehow get the idea of a tattoo just for it's beauty, a deep and personal meaning makes it so much more perfect to me! also because often one can relate to it and get a personal connection to the person wearing it (for example i have a skull "collection" as well and totally get your thought behind it!). i always warn people who ask me for the meaning of my tattoos, that it will need some time and if they really want to invest it. xD i most often need at least a minute per tattoo, so yours was quite short in comparison! i think the thought behind it is the most important part of a tattoo! :) and i really like your meaning!

p.s. and by the way: might i ask what the triangles are standing for? :)

all good things come in threes c:

:D

That is amazingly beautiful. That tattoo artist has some real talent.

She did an amazing job~ And her dotwork is going to make it even better!
I didn't want to draw my own design because I knew I'd hate it... So I asked LA to do the design and then the tat artist is doing some personal interpretations of it~

looks awesome. Are you planning on getting it colored?

NOICE!

Hell D; wish my firsr tattoo was this gorgeous

looks amazing!

Tattoos aren't really my thing. But since you had to go
big and bold, I really do think you made a very good
choice. It may only be half done, but I can tell at a
glance, that it matches the level of detail in the original
drawing, to a very high degree. So if nothing else, you're
definitely getting your money's worth.

That is sexy and hot! The flowers on the sides look a little like wings, it's a gorgeous design.

Wow, that looks amazing! Should be simply stunning once it's 100% finished.

I'm now sporting a tattoo designed by miss 12ed too! Seeing yours made me aware she did tattoo design commissions and it went from there.
