Ok..so I've had it for a week now and I have been so excited about it!
Not the best pictures but I had to take them myself.
For y'all who live in NC, I got it done in Boone at INK LINKS. The artist is Barry...wonderful guys.
100 bucks and 2 hours later, this is what I got.

Pretty cool.I want one so bad but I havent found anyone who will do a portrait for less than 275$ Just think of it this way: You get what you pay for. Cough up the cash if the artist is truly fantastic. Or you can bargain hunt and end up with a piece of shit on your body for life. Trust me, I've done both. The free/cheap tats were NOT worth it.

Agreed..the only reason I looked for cheap was because I saw his work....

Nice. :cool:

I already have 2 tats (nothing special). But I do want one of my Scrappy. But I want to look for a good artist. Like Sis said its with you for life. I know someone that does custom tats his start at $200.

looks good.

get the guy to color it in for free. feed him a line you have to "shop around" b/c it costs so much more to color it in, and I bet he springs for it so no one else botches his work.

true. could shade in a tiny bit of pink around where his nose, lips and eye are a little pink. it looks good. you should have someone snap a nice pic with good lighting and post that up.
