Another tattoo

[HardHitter 10+ year member]

So I'm thinking of getting two more tattoos.

I already have one on my back

I am Chinese and born in the year of the tiger, the reason why having the tiger, and then the tiger represents strength and courage and that's what those chinese characters are.

Now I'm thinking about getting two more, but definitly nothing as the one I have right now. I would get them on the sides of my rib cage, so my arms will be blocking them since they are down to my side. I'm going to just get chinese characters that say 'dedication' or 'motivation' on one side, and then I think 'genuine' on the other side.

I'm trying to figure out the style to have the characters done though. I am going to ask the artist what he thinks, but I was wondering what you guys think. Should I have it like the ones on my tat I have now where it's a straight fill in, or shaded, or 3d and so forth. The only worry is if I do something very artistic on my sides, it takes away from the one I have now and doesn't "match" I guess you could say.

I personally would go and get that tiger touched up at a different shop before I did anything else.

I have websense on my work computer, so will check it when I get home. I love tattoo's, but just not into chinese lettering. If it means something to you though, then more power to ya.

Also helps you are chinese, lol!

What is he having fading probelms? That shit sucks. I have a few tattoos and some look better than the rest, but the one on my inner forearm is fading bad. Is only a year old and has been fading since I got it. I would touch it up, but where it is faded is in a bad spot. When I sleep my arm does what it wants and well hence the reason where it is faded.

So on that note if it is in a place where it will be hard to keep the ink looking good, I say fuc it and just let it be.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
