Happy HNT

so this is my first HNT, nothing really special, most people that know me in person have seen this, but seeing as i've not got a lot of new peeps reading this little thing all about me i thought i'd start with something about me that i really like
the pic is of my favourite tattoo
it runs all around my right ankle and is in colour, the others are predominantly all in black
this one is special to me because it was the first one i had done which was done completely free hand, the tattoo artist just went straight into it with no marker or outline or anything, a mark of a truly good artist
there are no flaws in this tatt either, a few of the earlier ones have colour fades and bits missing when from where the scab fell off while it was healing, but this one came out perfect
i don't know what made me want this done, but i did
it took about 90 minutes, wasn't overly painful, but hurt like hell after i'd had it done, i was limping for like two weeks, it's one of the two most expensive ones i've had done costing me £120 some 3 years ago
but hey i like it and that's what HNT is all about right?
let me know what you think peeps

  11. I sat next to someone in class the other day, that had a star tattooed on their wrist, and it was this awesome blue color, but it was such a shitty job, the color bled all outside the outline, and it looked all fuzzy. It looked really bad.

    But yours is awesome

  13. You're right, that is the mark of a good artist. Next tattoo, if I see a stencil, I'm running away.
    Happy HNT!

  18. I've seen it before but I like it so I'm leaving a comment.
    Put pictures of your other ones up, I like them too!
    When I'm less fat (I was weighed at the doctors yesterday and I've lost almost three stone since I last saw you!) and less of a wimp, I'm getting a solid black pine tree in the curvy bit of my spine, not the base but the bit above. If that makes sense.
    God this is long and pointless.
