Elbow ditch for me. Shadows being finished up around the 6 hour mark. I definitely got a bit squirmy. Well worth it though.
Around my left nippel was murder, I thought I might pass out
armpit. When getting my side done it would tickle sometimes around my waist and feel like hot coals as it went higher and higher.
Back of my calf. Across the side and even the little bit that felt like it was hitting bone in my shin felt like nothing compared to getting the back done.
How was the back? I'm toying with it but the pain and nightmare aftercare puts me off
Agreed. I have the backs of both my calves tattooed and they hurt way worse than the half sleeve on my upper arm, though that doesn't go all the way around the inside yet.
I just got a finger tattoo yesterday and it was surprisingly painless. My shoulder hurt more.
Front or back shoulder?
