same artist for all but my first.. My first was done by a mates artist, and I must say I was a little put off after that first one... it was 4.5hrs straight, no breaks, he didn't say more than 10 words to me the whole time.. The only things about the experience that I was happy with was the fact that it didnt hurt any where near what I expected to, and that the tattoo looked exactly as I drew it.. Since then I've been going to an artist who's done one of my mates whole back, right sleeve, chest piece etc.. He's been fantastic.. Its amazing how much easier a 5~6hr session is when you've got a really friendly artist chatting away while he works...
Im nearly finished drawing up my next two.. the sleeve is sort of a rough draft that I'll get the artist to re-do in his own style, just giving him a graphic idea of what im essentially after, and from there he can add in the rest... the 2nd one is for the center of my back between my shoulder blades, and is in its 3rd draft at the moment.. will start the final drawing within the week, and I plan for it to be done straight from my drawing.. That one will probably be done before the sleeve, 2 ~ 3 weeks from now, and the sleeve hopefully started in the next 2 ~ 3 months..
