Thats looking sweet dude, making me think into getting my arse in gear and getting one. I've had a picture in my head for years now, I can picture it perfect but I can't draw for shit so can't get it on paper what I want. Only good thing is I have a well dodgy back and don't feel a thing there anymore so hope the feeling would be easier than how painful yours looks ;)

its worn well then mate, did you have colour topped up then?

 

Nah, had the colour done in 3 sessions, think it was 8 hours total. Had the outline done by a guy i used to work for who was an award winning airbrush artist who painted custom Harleys and that. He done tattooing from home. Anyway, i stopped working for him, and ended up going to a place called Living Colour in Dereham Norfolk for the colour.

quick question for someone. Should a tattoo go flaky? Where i had the shading started, it seems to have gone a bit flaky (bit like a snake) around the dark edges. I've been putting the cream on she gave me about 4 or 5 times a day, but it just started last night.

 

I was expecting scabs but not flaking, like sun burn almost. Think i might go back to using vaseline for a couple of days as its wetter, so to speak than the cream i was given

My tattoo did that so long as you don't pick at the flakes and just keep applying cream you'll be fine.

Like i told you use e45, it should go flaky like sunburn, i may post up some pics of mine and you can see i have some experience in this area, e45 is the king for it, do not use vaseline especially on black and shade, black is the hardest colour to keep in:)

Just standard Dermatological e45 cream, it stops the itching, if you pick you can pull some of the colour out if it is not fully ready, you will then need the black redoing or touching up, some black needs re going over anyway to get it really dark, if i get a min i'll post up a pic of my front, it is a dragon, carp etc but in colour:)
