I have a tattoo but no pics of it as far as I know. It is a black scorpion on my right shoulder and confuses a lot of people as they expect a female to have a rose, or flower or somethign like that!!! I had wanted a black scorpion with red eyes for ages, but couldn't decide where - then I bought a dress for an x-mas do and it suddenly came to me to have it on my shoulder - I can cover it for work, and show it off when I want to, and at the mo my hair also covers it. It didn't get the red eyes though, as I would have had to have it bigger and I was too much of a chicken for that!! I used to be able to get little jewels to put on it, but not been able to find them in red for ages. |

I'm not a fan of tattoos, but that one is really elegant Yola and I think it would look good. My OH has a tattoo on his arm with my name on, very flattering, but I've never really liked it - just as well we didn't split up!! Edited to say that my son (he's 1 wants a small tattoo and thought I would object - not at all - it's up to him and I really think that some of them can look really good. |

Check the tattooists certificates, tehy all have to have one, and most will put up them up on the walls. I design tattoos, mostly for my self but sometimes for other people. You can have tattoos these days in any colour you like, and you dont have to have a black outline either, but.... you DO have to find a VERY good tattoo artist. Not all tattooists are artists as well, there are a lot of old skool tattooists who can copy a design sure, but they cannot draw, they are not artists in that sense. Pick a good un, a VERY good one will discuss what you want, look at pictures that inspire you and draw something up for you. That doesnt come cheap, but over the course of a lifetime, it works out pretty economical in the end. Em - who has a lot of tattoos. |

Em - thanks for that great information. My only worry with the cat pic is that it's vertical and a horizontal image would be better for the base of the spine I think. We have a very good tatooist in Reading (recommended by everyone), but he's just that - a tatooist who will copy rather than create. I did pluck up enough courage to to into his shop once, but I found him rather unhelpful so that put me off. Would you mind if I contacted you closer to the time I'm looking to have the tatoo (autumn/winter this year), to see how much you'd charge for a cat design? |
