I'm not opposed to using different people, but when you find someone you like, it's for a variety of reasons, not just their skill. I only entertain work from an artist when I know someone wearing their work. I'm not inclined to go to a random tattoo artist, or just look at pics of their work.

Why? OK, I get it, tattoos are a personal thing, and so while they aren't mine, they are apparently yours. But I wonder what the purpose of going through the rest of your life with a lizard and gibberish text is all about? You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless. NRA Benefactor/Patriot Member | |||

Google Translate says it's Latin for "I never minced". Edit, when i put a period at the end it changed to "will never be crushed". That makes more sense. | |||

"can't be worn down." A more concise "Illegitimi non carborundum" and also not faux latin. Arc. ______________________________ "Like a bitter weed, I'm a bad seed"- Johnny Cash "I'm a loner, Dottie.

Gibberish text? Classy man. I guess you don't really want an answer to your question. Arc. ______________________________ "Like a bitter weed, I'm a bad seed"- Johnny Cash "I'm a loner, Dottie.

Appears to be Latin for "I never minced."* *according to Google translate. P.S. I don't put much credence in Google's translations. I like Arc's translation much better.

I don't have any tattoos but I don't go pissing on folks that do. My best bud has lots and each one is to honor someone he loves. They make a statement or show honor or tell you to go piss up a rope. arcwelder76, I dig it. | |||

Guys. Read the whole thread before responding, and really, Google translate has its limits. Arc. ______________________________ "Like a bitter weed, I'm a bad seed"- Johnny Cash "I'm a loner, Dottie.

Yeah, it's helped in a pinch when talking to a non-english speaker but a missing accent mark, period or capitalization can make it say nonsense. | |||

My son just travelled from here to DC to finish his “sleeve” a day ago. Not a cheap artist, but he respects and trusts this one artist, so the long ride is worth it. I, however, am looking for someone here in the Raleigh area to have something smallish done. | |||

Nice work. Does that salamander have particular significance for You? Also, are the lines through the text part of it or are you covering up scars?

I understand why he's doing it, they get to know you, and what/why you're doing what you're doing. It's a collaboration, and when you've got a relationship going, you stick to one person. Especially if you ever plan on full sleeves or any large area, you want someone to help lay it out and art that will come together.
