Well for the people who know me and my reasons behind wanting to get the tattoo done, you will probably understand why im so happy ive finally got it done For everyone else, well, I got a tattoo done that ive been thinking about doing for over a year and it has a lot of personal meaning to me 
The guy who did it is the bollocks, he worked at Miami Ink for 6 years, and has been doing it for over 20 years, I saw their work and decided to get it done there even tho it was almost twice the price of the other places.
Pic of the first sketch...

And the finished tattoo...


SOOOO happy with it Took 5 1/2 hours with no break, hurt more than i was expecting but it wasnt unbearable, altho right on top of the shoulder hurt quite a lot. Anyway, just thought id share that

Miami Ink doesnt exist off the TV, the studio is called something totally different and the 'stars' on the show dont work there. So Im not sure what he means

just make sure you protect it well with it being on your shoulder, your clothes will rub against it an could pull some of the scab off when its scabbed

What is the deal with koi carp tattoos these days? What do they actually signify?
