New Tattoo

Loafer · 07-03-2011, 10:02 AM

Had a new tattoo put on at Americade.

Scab starting to peel when this picture was taken. It took almost 4 hours.

Geez Gerry, what is it? I would rather had a naked lady on my arm.

AlabamaNomadRider · 07-03-2011, 07:32 PM

And the cost? Is $400 close? I have two from 1967 and 1968 and the total cost was $45. I know they are expensive now.

My idea, the artists did the drawing several times, he spent probably 3 hours trying to make the drawing to my liking. It' my version of a Chinese Water Dragon. It cost $700.00.

You had $700 to spend?, you could have come to Maggie Valley instead.

You have to realize that I raised 3 boys. And when I said I would like a new tattoo, they said I should do it, I said I can't afford it. Long story shortened, they paid for dad's new tattoo.

Wow, tat's have gotten expensive. I have one that needs to be finished. A viking in the clouds on a horse with a battle axe in one hand. It's all outlined, but no color. Just the outline took 3 hours. 4 hours is a long time under the needle. Who did the work?

The artist said his name was Jacqson [aka Gentleman Jacq] the shop's name is Extoria on Canada st. in L. Geo., N.Y. It was expensive because it took us an hour and half the night before to get the drawing going in the right direction. The next day we finalized the drawing, then it was almost 4 hours to complete. So he spent almost a full day working for me. He's a great guy to talk to. He has worked in shops in California, Nevada, Texas, Florida and a few places I can't remember. Said he wanted to work with the guys at this shop so he has been here for a couple of years now.

Ok, a local. I know a lot of these type of events have tat artists come in with their own trailers etc.
