when I did my 5 hour rib session I brought with me some granola bars and Gatorade. Desperately needed all of them

[janky]

definitely a good idea to carb up before you go
Craig; I did not know I couldn't lift after my tat... I hit chest like 3-4 days after my last session :/

ill try to get pics of my girls work soon. anyone ever seen a good family crest woven into a really artistic piece? Im thinkin bout starting off with a large shoulder piece that can be converted into a sleeve later....

[craigcmead]

I like Horimasas work for what it is, pure art. I love Japanese work.
How does detail work look after 10 years. Like Pakoe said, it depends on how the client cares for it. Detail work cant see too much sunlight, or be subjected to salt water too often. You have to keep detailed work moisturized frequently.
If you dont take care of it, it will fade and you will lose detail.

[ErockDuh88]

Would travel across the world for Horimasas's work.

I'm almost healed

I spoke with Horimasas' agent and the only way to fit me in is 3 x 8 hour sittings. Fuaaarr. First tattoo, pepper thy Angus ?

After the first hour or so the pain isn't very bad at all.
If its on meaty parts (Pec/Side Bicep) prepare thy angus.

My first few sessions were 7 hours

There are alot of factors, type of font, size, how well your skin takes the ink ect. I had my mothers name along with roses tatted on my side and the name took about an hr and a 45
