I think all the deer down here sprout 2 more legs for deer season I see plenty of tracks just no deer.Maybe It's the HT'ing relish seeping from my pores that scares them away :eek:

here it is Mike
I need to do some touching up once it heals
he's got lock jaw right now :eek:

I was spending to much time on it and needed to stop ( we had to leave for the rent)
another tooth, some more shading and I'll have it.. man this is somthing differant doing it on yourself,, the picture being upside down doesn't help either ..whatcha think for a first? I colored in two of my other tats that lost their red ink though the years..

I think for "crazy-man-who-tattoo-himself" you did pretty danged good, Dan! Proportion is decent, it's not lopsided, and shading ain't too bad for your first run. Cool. You'll have to redo the long lines on the tricep side of the skull, though, or it will break up with time. They look a little on the fine side. Tough place to do it, I'm sure, since that's a weird place to try and bend, grip tightly.

Bravo, you did well. Big cojones award!:thumbup:
 
Dan,

:eek: That's damn good for a first try, better to practice on yourself than others :D

Larry T
 
Thanks Larry , yes on myself, for sure, unless I can catch you drinking to much :D

Mike yes your right , on that line I didn't dip enough Ink , I learned so much as I was going on this one. I was starting lite, I knew I could do it over if too lite, but it's hard to go the other way if it's to dark.. I'm going to do a full sleeve
so I'm working ( thinking ( which BTW got me into this in the first place) on what to put on to complement everything..

you know:rolleyes: , some guys buy a car or screw around in their mid life crisis,
OH NO NOT me :D thanks for the pointer Mike I'm always open to bettering my self and what I do..:thumbup:

now I need to work on the speeding :o got taken for speeding bythe SP this morning
71 in a 50,, :o the guy was good to me and put it down as 59 in a 50 :thumbup: :D

:eek:

Well, I suppose mine started around 35. I'm 55 now! Nancy will tell you I'm not overly busy maturing! ;)

As for how long it lasts, well, I just don't know for sure how much longer I'll live. 'Bout that long, though. ;) :D
 
Dan, I'm a firm believer that as long as it doesn't hurt anyone, a person's got a right to define their own path. I've never much believed in "mainstream". I don't think you do, either.

You want ink, then do ink!:thumbup:

Just make sure your own path hasn't become "mainsteam".....like "alternative" music....at this point, what is it an alternative to? lol:thumbup:
 
Well Hello to all who reads this small note:

Today I am going out into the shop and work on a new Barkes Hunter. I just do not know what kind of handles to put on it. I like the last one. I will think on it, when I am done grinding the blade maybe it will come to me. Hey: by the way I like the art work. Great Job. I have my X Girlfriend name on me. And that does not go well with the wife. But life goes on. ;)

I am as I am ,you're right Mike, life is to short to be other wise

Barkes
