      Currently two sessions in with Steve Zimonvan (Remember Me Tattoo) on my back. So stoked with how it’s looking.

            @alexxedge damn!! Sick as hell. Also, incredible how much coverage for only two sessions. Were they long sessions or is he a really fast tattooer?

            In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

              Hey all…curious how many of us keep their arms shaved to help their tattoos pop more??

              When I finished my first sleeve I never really shaved my arm. I do have fairly hairy arms. Then when I started my second sleeve started keeping the hair shaved back on both and have fallen into preferring it that way. Curious how others roll.

                @alexxedge love the colour scheme! Are you adding any other colours for the rest of it or sticking to black/red/yellows?

                  @Mizmazzle first session was about 3.5 hours of actual tattooing and we did all the outlines. Session 2 was 2.5 hours of actual tattooing and we did the entire eagle. The goal is to do one whole anima, each session. Next one will likely be the Snake. Steve is super fast, and very efficient, which makes for a great time.

                    @DeeDee85 keeping it as traditional as much as possible. Reds, yellows, greens, and black. Steve did a color treatment when he was prepping for it. It was nice and simple and really popped. I’ll post more after my next session.

                        @Mizmazzle I also have hairy arms and I don't shave them to make the tattoos more visible. I like the natural, muted look more and hate the time when the tattoos look brand new. I think the hair helps with that and also I don't have the time to constantly shave my arms 😃

                          @Mizmazzle There's no way I could be arsed to shave my arms. And my various moultings clog the shower drain enough as it is without me adding to the clog. Thankfully I'm not quite hairy enough that my tats are obscured.

                          Take the dive...

                            @EdH I hear ya there. I guess it ebbs and flows for me. I like how clean the tat looks when there isn’t a bunch of thick hair…but I too don’t make much time to shave my arms. Just recently have been giving it a go and like the look.

                              I shave too , using a electric body groomer to prevent getting cut. But I don’t like body hair in general. So for me it’s no only because of the tattoos.

                                @Daniel-San nice! I'd imagine we move slightly faster than the average Joe due to less wind resistance.

                                  Dragon and jackal head yesterday. Awkward to photo the dragon, had to flip the pic.

                                    @jerkules Welcome to the Dragon Club! This is at least the 3rd dragon tattoo posted here this year - 4 if you also include my sons’ dragon tattoo. Wear it in good health!
