I believe the pain of having one done will be enough to not get "one more"

Trinac Thanks for the advice, and location suggestion

A friend of mine's tattoo artist offered to give him a free tattoo if he let him tattoo a supposatron on him. A robot inserting a suppository into his backside. I can see if he will extend the deal to you?

So two years ago the idea of getting a tattoo has suck with me. More specifically the idea below I've been wanting.

So two months ago I was at a friends wedding and her sister-in-law had an amazing tattoo on her leg

I asked her who did it and where was it done, and found out Jo ann Atwood from Urge II Tattoo did it. Went to her website and liked her work so I checked out the shop and met with her (2 months ago) and my appointment is tomorrow!!!!!OMG!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the drawing she did, I asked her to change the bottom of the leaf stripe so that it has a bottom to it.



I also want her to change the back (front side) fin so it is smaller (more proportionate to the smaller front fin in front) and erase the line over the back bottom fin by the tail. I haven't had a chance to tell her about the last 2 changes I want to make (I've been sick and I lost my voice and was busy) but hopefully if I go in a bit early it won't be to hard to make the changes before we start, they seem like easy fixes.

That's funny, I was in Urge a few weeks ago getting some work done and Jo was putting a fish on someone else in the chair next to me...

Enjoy.

I've wanted a tattoo for a very long time now, always wanted a maple leaf or Canadian flag or something like that. Two years ago when this thread was started and the clownfish idea was said I've really wanted it done. Now I'm in disbelief that tomorrow it's actually going to happen!!!!!!! Must admit I'm freaked out about how much it's going to hurt It's not a huge tattoo so I should have no problem sucking it up and getting it all done in one sitting, I figure it should be around 3hrs worth of work, at $150 an hour I hope it's not much more then that! Here's hoping I can withstand the pain and get it done!!!!!
