Updated pics from my second session. About 4.5 hours of shading. I think it is coming out sick!!! Let me know your thoughts.
This is my first tattoo. I think it came out pretty well but you guys have seen more tattoos than I have so you tell me! I'm going back in a couple weeks to get the dark shading done and then a few weeks after that for the colors. Feel free to suggest colors for the flowers. I hope you like it!

| Thanks for the replies guys! I have no idea what I want to do as far as color goes. I know the background will be black and gray. I need to figure out a color combination for the 4 flowers. I am pretty sure I want to with a deep purple for one of them. Any suggestions on colors? What might go well together and stand up over the years? Thanks for any input. |

| purple, blue, burgandy, orange, yellow. Those colors go well together and are interchangable. Use 2 for each flower. |

| Well I can tell you why I got flowers done. It is a part of a bigger planned tattoo. I am going to do both arms in a floral design and my back, with most likely a dragon. I don't really understand what makes flowers off limits to a man. I think that any tattoo can be done in a masculine or feminine manner. I understand that you may not want flowers on your body but I think they can be done as a part of a beautiful and larger piece. Maybe I will just get some sweet skulls or a cool Harley Davidson tattoo next time so that I can prove my masculinity to you. |

| bigpaca....36afix is our resident "wet-blanket". If it's not devilish, hard-core or some ghoulish demon dripping blood from it's mouth, then it's weak and gay. Don't pay any attention. |
