Tattoos

@TrickHell:
9/10 heavily tattooed guys I know, including literally every artist agrees with the statement "Every time I sit down in the chair and get started, I ask myself 'why the hell do you keep doing this?'"
Anytime someone tells me they like getting tattooed I basically file it under "I love the nuclear hot chicken wings" / "Leg day is my favorite day of the week" section of my brain.
Well to put this straight, I'm no more looking forward to getting tattooed. I'm not crazy enough to embrace the pain. But now that I'm in the process of having my old 1980s tats covered and something awesome is happening with my upper body (;)) I really can't wait for the next appointments. So this is what I mean when saying "I like it".
It's gonna be a long tattoo-less summer… but I'm definitely not making appointments while it's nice and warm. Already missed 2 tennis league matches because of getting tattooed. -
I'm going to continue my arm next tuesday…then 2 weeks until the back continues and this will repeat at least 7 times. No, I don't like the act of getting tattooed (in fact I fear the day she'll fill my cheeks) but I still look forward to the results. But people who tell me that they embrace the pain or the like (and probably have just a biceps tattoo) crack me up.

I just get my headphones on with some Metallica and zone out. 6 hours is my limit time wise.

7.5 hours in one session is the most that ive had done. It fucking sucked. Especially when he took the big shader to my elbow…..
Keen to get the otherside done but the thought of gettin it done gives me the chills!

Elbows suck big time

^Good to hear
(coming on tuesday).So far, 9 hours was my Limit (chest), but 1 hour buttcheeks was worse than that.

Thats hardcore. You need to get the elbows done dude. Aesthetically (imho) i always think that it looks awesome and really completes a sleeve.
My mate is currently getting his chest done (for free, the bastard). He keeps putting off any further progress after the chap literally coloured in one of his nipples black and took the big liner to the other nipple. Apparently the whole thing is going to take about fifty hours as he is 6'7".
He said that the chest was by far the worse thing he has experienced…..

Not at all old chap, at the end of the day pain is all relative to the physique of the individual!
What are you getting?

How was the elbow?
-
It was ok. Not the best spot but compared to the kidneys and below a piece of cake. But it was hard to get the colour in, I think it might need another filling after it's healed.

Looks great old chap. Nice to see some black and grey work!

Thanks. Yeah, it was done by Valentin Hirsch again, so it matches all the other stuff. We were discussing a lot of ideas and it was hard to find some spots. I also got a small filler on the forearm.

My elbows never needed a refill
