Nice Tattoo BBF. Would give it at least few more weeks to settle and am sure it will be ok. Some of mine have scabbed up a couple of weeks after they were done.


Thanks Bubble, It has settled and the redness is vanishing so hopefully not ink leaking.

Some of the comments as always aren't very complementary. I suppose that can be expected on Hol!

It does look a lot better on other photo's although I'm not too impressed with the Lion as others have said he looks like a Brighton supporting beast! Or like Parsley
below.

I didn't want to bother with the background sun burst, so it's more or less how I wanted it, Am just not that impressed with some of the colouring the white didn't come through very well at all although in fairness to the tattooist I did bleed quite badly!
I am booked in for some touch up work in a couple of weeks.

Boozing the night before? That has that effect.
In all seriousness though White ink looks a bit naff when first done but improves after time once its settled, Had a large Tatt done 6 weeks ago and its looking better each week that passes as it settles.

I have 8 tattoos myself. I have to say, I think people are being a bit harsh on yours (although I daresay some of it is just banter/tongue in cheek). I have seen a lot worse out there for definite and I hope the folks on here haven't made you want to rip your own arm off. It's not embarrassing or anything! Personally I wouldn't go back to the same artist for any new tattoos, there are definitely better ones out there, but I've been following this thread for a few days and felt sorry for you that people might be making you think you have something absolutely horrendous on your arm!

BBF. Nice tat. I'm in the process of having a full back tat at present and believe me, I was seriously worried that the faces were going to turn out like Ena Sharples chewing a wasp!, but now they have settled down I really can't wait for the whole lot to be finished. I wouldn't worry to much let your tat settle down, I don't know what you tattooist has said about looking after it, I always put Bepanthen (nappy care ointment on mine) for the first month at least. Personally I really wouldn't do anything for at least 4 to 6 weeks , see how it goes if you still not happy then go back. As you know Tats need time to settle down don't forget you are putting something into you skin that the body is trying to reject. Shading and colours that have just been done do look bold and bright but do fade quite quickly after a few weeks sometimes months.

Thanks PTJ I do like the tattoo mate, People's comments and opinions will always differ especially on here!! I did ask for opinions and there mostly good, the Tatt is only two weeks old so there's time for it to settle.
There's a guy at work with some dreadful work, Yet he thinks it's great!
The guy who did mine at Hornet tattoo Chichester has been doing Tatts for 30 years, I rang him yesterday and he's doing some touch up colouring in a couple of weeks,I do trust the man, He said I shoudl of had a Millwall roaring Lion!!
Although I do feel the detailing should have been better, He's promised me he's spending another 30-60 tidying up so am hoping it will be better, Am 52 so probably no more Tattoo's but I said that when he done my Palace badge two years ago, Thanks for you comment, have got harder skin than to worry about a few neg comments mate.

Thanks am confident that after touch up colouring it will be fine mate, Yes I've been using Bepanthen since having it done, Am going back in two weeks for touch up work so hopefully it will be improved.

Cheers
BBF
