Always liked that line from the tattoo artist in Breaking Bad when asked why she didn't have any tattoos.

It's a lot of commitment.

I'd have thought back/ribs would be as painful as front ribs? How far down do lats go?

Can confirm all of those leg zones. Shin, achilles tendon caused me some inadvertent flinching.

Kudos to Maori women with their jaws tattooed! Samoan men with their nether regions (to an extent ... and an extra shoutout do the artist and assistants who have to get in there! :lol: )

The lips must be a real nightmare in application and healing!

I used to know a guy who had CCFC (Cardiff City FC) tattooed inside his mouth below his lower lip - I always thought that must have stung a bit.

When you're dumb enough to get a tattoo of your missus, but have a clever idea for a coverup once you've split up

I need some ideas for a virgin left arm....finally found a decent artist...just need a theme as it will be a full arm when finished...

I have mythical monsters on my right arm...was thinking mythical monster hunters on left arm...need a decent one for the focal point start....

I have thought Van Helsing, St George and Beowulf....can anyone think of another

Kind of a random find... Duke of Mandas around about 1907 with a surprisingly detailed bird tattoo (poor placement, though... it's best to have things 'looking' forward rather than backward)

This artist’s sense of depth is great! There are better examples of technique but liked this freaky druid.

I told him to get the witcher hoping that it would turn out to look like the first game played on a kak PC.

Bridget is not young any more. That tattoo is going to collapse into a mess one day.

Nope. He's even hash tagged the artist who inspired it.

If she doesn't take care of it or has a significant weight loss, but...

Stretchy skin here, still holding up

These all went on in her old age...

... but, unless we die before, we all tend to shrivel significantly at the end. Older people making this decision are even less likely to care / know what to expect.

This is incredible technique!!! ... though some suggest all that white will fade in a year or two and make it look like a mess.

That's not really New School, it's an exact likeness of Gorillaz character 2D in an embroidery style.

Rather, its colours are solid and with good gradients, the imagery tends to be 'fat' looking or exaggerated.
