I've been saving (still am) and looking for that perfect tattoo and artist. I've seen lots of dragon ones, and some are so beautiful! But yeah, the detail is tricky :)

@Lala, I like the cherry blossoms! I think if you ike the idea of tattoos on your stomach you should see about getting it there. I think that would lok nice- if you're not sure though you could always get a good body artist to do a temporary one just to see :)

Speaking of pain, I would think it depends on your pain threshold o.O kind of like hair removal which depends on the individual

I've also been wanting to get a tattoo on my wrist.
Lately I've been really into getting a tattoo of a robot, but we'll see.

I'm getting closer to deciding what I want xD

That sounds like a really beautiful idea!

My brother has a really cool dragon tattoo on his shoulder. It suits him so well.

I've been looking for a good tattoo artist, too. I'm not in any rush, though, but I haven't had a lot of luck. I'm not really sure how I should go about finding a good one.

How do you guys select the designs for your tattoos? Do you draw or have your friends draw it? Or do give an idea to the tattoo artist so that they can make a design you like?
