Tattoos

First topic message reminder :

Hi, my name is Carissa & I'm a fully fledged bogan - hehe.

Yes I'm out & proud - I drive the hotted up stereotypical commodore, I live for speedway anddd.... I'm covered in tattoos.

My question is... Has anybody got any, and has weight loss affected the way they look?

You are so a slack ass. Very nice. Looks awesome.

Oooh swish!!!

Yes I'm a slack ass I get it..

Couple of photos not the best but its not easy holding my Dslr and trying to get a decent photo.

Will say though god the shading up near and on my elbow hurt like an absolute f*cker..

So J, where are the pics?

I'll do my best

Well we can expect pics mid afternoon then, right?

Sat at midday Kate

Definitely want to see pics J. When are you getting it done??

Pic pls! When its done!

All this tattoo talk, I had to book in to get some more work done.

It's only fill in stuff on my sleeve, but it'll give me my fix.. It's been way to long.

LMC, I thought that the top of your hand would be bad. My foot is still raised and sore. I don't know if because I changed one colour from lighter to darker if he had to go deeper or something but OMFG it is just a tad sore. Putting a before and after pic up for you.

AFTER

Soooooooooo CdeB what would you get and where???

Oh and why of course!

MissHel, just saw yours too!! Love!! Great colous! How have i missed this thread all this time?! lol

Wow LMC and Kate, I love what both of you have done... they are so... pretty!! I'm the worlds biggest wuss and have wanted a tatt for so long but still don't have the courage to go get it. I'm always scared of what it'll look like later blah blah... but i love how feminine your art looks.

Maybe I should go get mine post-sleeve to take my mind off any pain in my tummy!! lol :))

Thanks guys :)

Oh I want an updated pic then Kate! And yes.. Holy mother of god the foot hurts to get done. My left foot didn't hurt at all, my right foot brought tears to my eyes.

But in saying that, the top of your hand hurts like a BITCH!

Very pretty LMC. I had my foot tattoo touched up yesterday finally after 2 years. I remember why I wasn't in a hurry to get it done before. Hurt like a mother. Man the top of your foot is painful place.

LMC that's so pretty! I love it.

Jacko.. no offence dude but that probably wasn't the smartest idea getting a tattoo on your shoulder / bicep area when you still have so much weight you want to lose.

Don't get me wrong it looks great, I'm just more worried about you getting skin removal surgery later on down the track and it ending up looking stretched and out of whack.

oh well it's around the outside of my arm at the top if they cut underneath and remove skin it'll still be ok cause its far from going right around

very pretty MissCee,

I want one more a owl in full flight that will appear on my lower back as my gift to myself, when I have reached goal and had my nips and tucks done.

hugs

Looks good I want I want more but, i'll be good and wait, next one when i'm in the 140's on my other upper arm, eventually i want 3/4 sleeves when i own my own business, don't think dad would hire me with tattoos showing

My newest addition :)

(sorry.. don't mind the bit of leg showing!)

I had my first one at 43 and my second one 3 weeks ago. They are definitely addictive.

Bahh all this ink talk makes me start hanging even more to go get the rest of my sleeve done..

And Jess - my Dad had his first ink at 60. So never too old for anything!!!

That is great to know LilMissCee - cos I was a bit worried - especially about my arm ones cos I luv them!

And Miss Strawberry - I've already picked it out! Its a celtic tree. Its circular and its going to be on my upper right arm.
Soooo looking forward to it. I had my arm done by a chick called Sara in RIchmond and she did such a great job - I'm thinking of heading back to have her do this one too.

Bloody hell I miss Melbourne!

None of mine have changed with losing near on 60 kilos.

I have both the insides of my forearms done, tattoos on both sides of my back, and on top of both my feet.

My arms are sooo much smaller than they used to be, but it hasn't changed the shape of the tattoos, they just take up more of my arm now!

Have started organising my next lot to get done... Getting some of my left arm brightened up, and also getting a chain of butterflies and sparkles that will join up with the tattoo that's already there, across the top of my hand.
