moodyskydiver 0 #1 March 19, 2004 Ok so technically its not my ass, its my lower back, but hell its still hard to take a one handed pick from the backside. Its Spring Break and I have nothing better to do with my time so I finally got my new tattoo. Its still healing and will need some touchups later but I'm enjoying it. People at the studio were impressed with my results and I have to go back in a few weeks after its healed so that the artist can have a pic of it for his portfolio since it turned out nicely.The design was created by Pat Fish of Santa Barbara, CA who is said to be the leading artist for celtic tattooing.I couldn't have her do the actual inkwork b/c she had a pretty extensive waiting list and I wasn't going to be in CA any time soon. So heres my new art... "...just an earthbound misfit, I." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People make the mistake of using it for too long and/or using to much (gobbing it on) and it pulls the ink out and this is why tattoo artists say NOT to use it ( because people are clueless and ruin their ink ), but if used CORRECTLY, its the best thing for it. I have used it on both my tattoos which are considerably large, and they have come out beautifly. Anyways, nice tattoo, looks very clean! Post some better pics!
