^^ looking awesome Mike, where did you go? Are they charging you by the hour or by the piece?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I'd get one but it looks like it would hurt.

Naw it tickles


Nice tat Mike!

This guy right here http://www.crimsonhilttattoo.com/alex-taylor/
I was getting charged by the hour, but there were a lot a lot of free hours given. Really cool guy! A set goal for the day... and he won't stop till that goal was done.
1 day we did a straight 5 or 6 hour session (which I paid for a 3 hour session) with just 2 10 min breaks (I needed to pee, lol!).
I would say... if you build a pretty good bond with your Tattoo artist... I think they'll take care of you.

Naw it tickles


Nice tat Mike!

Thank goodness I didn't act like this when I was getting inked

It's actually more relaxing than anything, you should try it sometime.

Oh, I'm guessing someone took the bait.

I'm also guessing you haven't had the pleasure of a face to face meeting with Jim?

You are trying to bait me, not going to work (this time anyway). Yes I've had the pleasure lol.

Thank you! All I know with the style is it's Japanese, but there are stories from different countries with koi's... and how they are positioned. Koi face down means humbled... Koi face up means still trying to achieve goal(s).... in China... there is a story of a Koi that swam up this hardcore river... finally making it all the way upstream it turned to a golden dragon. So many things to go with it... which explains why I chose to have two koi's... with enough $$$$ I'd probably do a half body with the Chinese story.

I knew there were correlations between koi and dragons, but I had no idea that the position of the koi meant specific things. That's awesome!
How old is this particular tattoo? Have you noticed much fading, or do you put sunblock on it every day?

And an upside down Koi means Dead Fish...... ( Belly Up)

[Irving]

What does it mean when the Koi is surrounded by white rice and seaweed?
