    The size of the above one would be the same as the first one and also the pink outline would be more blended to the skin colour etc

    Interesting concept.. I'd stick to black and white ... color needs a bit more care for no fading ;)

    Yeah i think im going for black and white. It seems to blend more.

    What do you think of the actuall tattoo.

    How much do you reckon that would cost about $200?

    Thanks

    The concept is okay, (It's not part of my tastes though! I prefer more traditional stuff like Sailor Jerry designs). As for the tattoo price.. I'm pretty sure it's much more than $200.. I got a quote for $100 for a black and white 1.75" x 1.75" tattoo :eek:

    The black and white one. I don't like "new" coloured tattoos.

    Thanks,

    I think the colour ones like that aways look a bit to cartonish and i dont want that
    Plus they fade where as black ad white always looks ok

    Thanks

    Maybe, depends where you look :) I personally wouldn't go on discounts for this type of stuff because you want quality ink... and a professional who knows what he/she is doing :) ( don't want the tattoo to fade too soon!)

    The design looks cool but kinda complex, make sure the person who does it is really talented or he might screw it up.

    Black and white is harder to distingish with gorilla hair but it doesn't matter since you're doing it for yourself and not what other people think...pick the one you like and not what you think other people would like better. BTW if thats your leg in the picture, I suggest new shoes too heh.Peronally I find black traditional nicer since color fades.

    I would go with the B&W also.

    I don't have any tattoos yet, but my gf has one on her foot, she said it hurt like crazy, but that's the foot.
    I would imagine the leg would be pretty tolerable since there is a good deal of 'meat' and you won't have to worry about touching bone like on ribs of spine.

    The black and white looks much cooler. If I was any younger I would have considered getting a tattoo.
