GOOD LUCK! No real advice from me, all of my tats are relatively small and took an hour or so, but good luck with a 4-5 hour sitting! I am sure ti will be great, post some pictures when you can!

wow, 4-5 hours? you will have to give me advice for that long. its a great tat, good luck , im sure it will come out great!! post pics when its done!!

Well, I am home!!!

I probably did about 4 hours in the chair. When I got there he actually resized the outline a little to make it fit my arm better. We moved the outline once to make sure it was where I wanted it and then got to work. Took 2 short breaks, but the rest was all tattoo time!!!! It did not hurt as bad as I had myself thinking it would, but I was getting pretty sore by the end...

All the outline and shade work is done. Color to come on 1-8-10.

Right now it is covered with saran wrap. He said to leave it on until the morning and then to wash it with soap and water, not washcloth. Then use a small amount of lubriderm.

I will try to get some pictures up tomorrow.

[Kurby]

I think that would make a very nice tattoo.

 

[Kurby]

I told him it would be nice to have the finish line with his best Disney time posted. That would tie it all in

Thanks for the complements. I am really happy with it so far and I am looking forward to getting some color added too. I also appreciate everyone's advice. Since this was my first tattoo, it was great to have somewhere to get advice from. I am glad I took the time to look around because it really made yesterday a lot less stressful. I was sure I had found the right place to have the work done.

Just found this thread, loving it! Gave me an idea for my next tattoo. I think I want Tinkerbell with how she is bent over side profile with the tip of her wand touching the top of the castle with fireworks around it, one hidden Mickey firework. The trouble will be thinking of where to put it. I don't want it huge, either.

That reminds me of the opening of the Wonderful World of Disney. Wasn't there a scene similar to that? That is a great idea.

I'm glad you took the time too, you found a great artist. Nice thick lines on the Mickey, and it just looks fantastic even in black and white! The coloring in is the fun part. (Also shouldn't hurt as bad ) Just one month from today!!

I think you are right and its the beginning of Disney movies. But I think its a silouette isn't it? And everything is gold? I can't decide if I want that or if I want color.
