Somewhat OT thinking about getting my 1st tattoo

Do you get a free skirt and matching purse with that tattoo? Just kidding PITW. I think it's cool, especially with a coral by it. If I were gonna tat a fish, I would probably have a trigger. I have a few scars from my queen trigger from long ago. Good luck.
Regards,
Joe

I'm glad someone said it, not that I'm one to talk. I'm sure you've all seen the pics KarenL posted of me in my tutu.

Verrrrrry Girrrrrly! On the other hand, it might be a chick magnet!
 
do you really think its 2 girly?

Matching purse, and skirt no, my friends think its cool.. but the may be saying it cuz theyre.. my friends.. lol

I don't know if thats where I want it or not.. Like I said I really want to think this thru.. I will probably drawn it on a bunch more b4 I really decide.. I think maybe more on my side would be cool.. I dont know..

My cousin got hers on her foot and shes the biggest wuss I know.. so I think I can handle it..

lol

yall are hilarous

Not even my flaming friend Antonio would get one!
 
Right there looks good...........go back with a cropped shirt to that Red Lobster and I bet after one look that manager will give you anything you want.:D
 
Just like property it is all about location. FYI...my wife has a tat in the same place. I know you said not on the arm, make it bigger and put it on the inside of your arm. Another idea is keep the clown where its at and put a scene behind it. Make it look like there is some coral growing out of your shorts. LOL
 
The inside of the arm, is probably the MOST PAINFUL part of the body to get tattooed on. At least the upper arm. i was sick for 3 days after having mine done.

Most of my large ones were done by Bobby Sox.
 
For sure get that tatoo where no one else can see it but you. You should beef it up a bit or combine it with something else. You don't want to people to think ahhh that's cute. Pick something with more meaning if you can. Just my two cents. I have one and it's of my initals but drawn in a way that you can't tell right away.
 
I drew an anemone behind it, and it looks a little better, I think. I colored it green for some reason, and I wouldnt want it green.. I'll post another pic tomorrow..

Like I said, its just an idea..

The meaning behind the clownfish is that i love the ocean always have always will, and animals, and I love the hobby so if I quit reefing, I'll still love the ocean & fish/animals...

I dont know
 
maxima/puffer no way would I put it on my arm.. like I said my arms are 2 small lol and puffer says it hurst so im sure it hurts real bad lol.. forget that

I also am thinking that if I do get it, i will get it about a half an inch smaller or so..

I work in corporate america :D lol so it cant be visable w/ normal clothes on, I wouldn't want it to anyway..

Personally, I don't really think a 1/2" tattoo would be worth it.

Couldnt agree more

As for location I would go with uper arm shoulder area easy to hide or show and usally fairly meaty so very little pain I think what puffer meant about the pain on the arm is the underneath part like below the arm pit
 
I have no tattoos so I cannot comment on the pain in getting one, but do have a question. Is it possible or advisable to put a xylocaine gel on the area to numb the pain? Or is this typically done anyway? Just want to know.
 
There are a lot of people that have arm bands that are not really bands but a half of one. I think the love handles hurt the worst for me and the start of the neck by the shoulder. Get a scene of the clown on your calf. Once you get one and it is small you will wish you would have gone bigger. A friend of mine learned the hard way. If you are set on just 1 tat and you want it a 1/2" that would be less painful, short, and cheap.
