Looks good Mick! I like the minimalist colour look, not a big fan of people with heaps of colouring in the tatts.

Any specific reasoning behind the design?

My tattoo has a couple of meanings . I lost my Dad when i was 13 and he was a very keen fisherman .So most of the tattoo is about him . The Koi fish is also meant to bring good luck and fortune . And the Cherry blossoms and flowers represent how short life is but also how beautiful life is in that short time .

Having this tattoo has helped me with my Dad's passing 10 fold . My Dad is my hero and i love to talk about him as much as i can . And this tattoo is just another way of expressing it :) .

Yeah it doesn't hurt . More like someone slapping your sun burn is the best i can describe it .

Nice Mick :BigThumb: I like the blue - is there more to go yet?
Plenty to go yet mate . the Koi needs to be colored and the flowers and some more water needs to be done .

Yeah, dont stop till you get to your wrist!
Thats the plan buddy :D . Will have the dragon done on the rest of my arm .

Has been really good so far . only time it has bothered me is in the work uniform they have a seam right on the side of the shoulder and it started rubbing to day that made it rather itchy .

$100ph is that the going rate? Not bad for colouring in. Slightly more than what I'm on

FMD are you serious, thats more than a Neurologist gets, I'm in the wrong business.

Had a bloke beside me while i was getting tattooed getting a heap of freehand stuff done . dragon down his whole arm . it looked awesome !

Yeah i know & if you got someone very notable it could be more...:eek:

[Sleepy]

Yeah they aren't cheap - but after all it's a bit more than colouring in though. Not so easy to rub it out if you go outside the lines:eek:. Yours is a work of art Mick:) I got a mate who has a Samurai on his ankle - cost him $500 and that was "mates rates". Still has more work to go yet.
