Cat Tattoo

I go tomorrow to get a new tattoo and I'm super excited. Its of Artemis I will post pics!

Oh, can't wait to see the pics! I love tattoos, wish I could afford to get some more.

I have symbolic tattoos of my previous cats and am generally coated in cats, tigers, and Hobbes (etc). I've designed my current two cats' tattoos, which are waiting for me until I go back to visit my tattooist friend, who lives far away. I wish she lived nearer as am keen to get them done. One is of a Dudleylion, which is a dandelion lion Dudley, with seedling puffs coming off it like the puffs of fluff that rain down when he scratches in the summer. And the other is of a unicorn-cat Parker, cos I dreamt he was a unicorn one night and since then I think of him as one, and his nickname is Sparkles so it seems appropriate.

Anyway, enough about me and my inking, please post photos of Artemis. I bet you're super excited. I really enjoy getting tattooed, I hope that you do too. I'm excited for you.

I look forward to pics! Tattoo time is exciting!

One day I'll get to finally finish my coastal sleeve I started last year. I have 1-1.5 sessions left! So close!

Also plan to one day get one to symbolize my Nero & Neko. I do have 8 paw prints walking up my ribs I've had for awhile now, as a symbol of my love for cats/animals.

Here it is gotta go back after it heals and heres the reference pictures i told him not to go full portrait because the rest is gonna be neo traditional it would stand out to much

My boyfriend said he looks a little cracked out which he does lol. But he does in the picture too. Im gonna have him widen tue black part on the eye just for appearances sake.
Then when we go back in were adding the rest if the yellow to the eyes green on the plants and purple and yellow to the iris

Ladysnuggable , haha, yes, better tone down the wide-eyed look for appearances sake.

It's pretty cool though. How long did it take?

Very nice! Those flowers are going to look so good when they're filled in too.

Is it expensive to get a tattoo done in your area? I got most of mine done in Japan, where everything is expensive. It's worth it though.

What a stunning tattoo! Cant wait to see the finished product, it is going to look even more amazing once the flowers are finished also

It was 150 for what i got yesterday. I know my artist through a few friends so he goes easy price wise i put some eyeliner on the wide eye and it loooked better lol I'm gonna go back 2 weeks and get it finished

i have a tattoo of my cat

my artist came into my job rubbed my arm told me its dry then slapped it xD then him and my supervisor proceeded to be perverts. They are both named Robert so i think its a Robert thing lol.

That's an excellent tattoo.. and reminds me a lot of my boy Sundar (in my siggy, below).

This one so far was a 4 hour work. My tardis was a 5 hour i have sailor moon heart locket that was like1.5 hours the sailor moon symbols less than an hour. Tolkien elvish on my ribs that was a quick one. my Grandfathers signiture on my foot (I thought i was gonna die it hurt so bad) then my hip has 3 roses and two sparrows that one was a 2 session 3 hours each and theeeeeeeen i got A Dalish Elf bow and laurel on my right hip
I have SUPER pale skin so color holds up well on me but sometimes my blues get a greenish hue

The smile kills me! Lol does yours talk to you too? Artie likes to hold conversations in the form of meh

Sundar doesn't talk so much as calls out 'where are you?' very loudly in Sundar-cat (it's his own dialect), and then wanders over when I respond.

Artie is my boy he asks if he can come up onto me and thrn waits fir me to tap abd approve lol.
