      thanks Katsushin, I will rub a thin layer on top.  It's aired enough I though.    the wrinkles are worrying me.
      The skin on my shoulders is super nice though and should heal up really well.

                Arm is now flaking and itching a tiny bit.  No scabs that I can see.

                    Tattoo does not look as vibrant as when it was freshly done.  Is this normal?

                      Yes, but a little moisturizer should bring it back to pretty close.

                        The colors "fade", and also pretty fast IMO. That's normal.

                        Maybe our tattoo artists want to chime in here?

                              Not really into bringing my work life over here, but started this back piece on an old client the other day (it will continue on down to the back of the thigh) and realized I got a good shot of the Busters patch in there…

                                      Looking for ideas on how to cover this up or incorporate it into something else. It was my first tattoo when I was 18. Don't dislike it, just want something different there. It's on my left shoulder and it's about 3-4 in height. Ideas? The shape is throwing me off. Would obviously have to be something circular or spiral in fashion, and don't really want to do the cliche barbed wire-esque stuff.
