I think if you where well covered with ink you could pull that off, but if you only have a few it would be a little odd for a none tattoo artist.

It would be a little weird, but depending on the tattoo, it would look pretty sweet.

I am not even going to look at the site but My answer would be no they are not worth it more than likely.....I would never purchase a kit ....and your mentor can tell you what you should get and what would work for you.....


Banck to the topic man If you are covered in tattoos you may be able to pull it off but that is kind of a piece that is normally kept for an artist you know... and it makes and artist who has it proud to wear.......I would say you could possibly offend some artist ...but your best bet would be to discuss that with the person who would be doing your tattoo. not just online advice

i dunno, i wouldn't think you were an artist if i saw you, because i wouldn't expect an artist to wear something like that..........unless it had his name and phone number in it for advertising..........

If you got a tattoo of a stethoscope, many people would likely assume that you are a doctor. Tools of the trade and all that.
