Well folks, as a lot of you know I've been having a full back tattoo designed by the tattoo artist Louis Malloy thats inspired by the race wallpapers from the wallpapers section on EVE-O.
Well I had my second session today, 2 hours. and this time a little colour has been added. You can check out the blog here and for those not willing to read the blog I'll send you here for the image of the status so-far. Be warned theres a little blood on the picture and it's still a little swollen so theres 7 days or so healing time left.
The next session is on the 20th June for 3 hours and the first Char and section should then be complete after 8 hours work. Then work will start on the next char on 14th July.
Enjoy. Look forward to seeing what you all think.

At least you weren't complaining so much about pain this time. 
Looks like it's coming along nicely.

It's not Gallente?! And it's permanent?! HAHAHA!! The jokes on you, mate!
Seriously though, looks great! Are you getting all 4 races done or just Caldari?

Couple of questions couple of answers -
Initial woman was stenciled, the rest is all freehand, as was all the shading etc.
The old tattoo is being over written so to speak in the next session I beleive.
Pain, this time there was no pain  only the nurofen I took before hand 
The hand might look distorted due to the way I'm holding my arms around my side. They are stright and in line as they should be promise

This hasnt been cheap I can imagine. Kinda impressive, kinda like the Japanese Yakuza style tat's. You should definetively get an Amarr tat on the oposite side.

Does it really hurt having the tattoo drawn on you?

OK well this is a little hard to gauge, but with this char alone taking 8 hours and 4 more to go with all the in-between work and it being ú100gbp per hour.
Rough estimate is ú2400gbp

A Caldari tattoo. What would be a better way to proclaim you'r a missile loving nubber than having it permanently inked onto your skin?
Just kidding . It looks great. I wonder if anybody has gotten Minmatar style tattoos or some of the other designs you can choose for your character?

Give him a luxury yatch for dedication, and give me one for suggesting it. (Or at least the former) ;)

 /me wants a Guristas tattoo and be CCP's E3 booth babe.
( I am a RL chick -just fyi for those that were about to freak out.)
It's lookin' good, man, and bet it'll look even better with more color. I recommend getting your back waxed before showing the final result with all four races -of course after you've healed, though.

2400 GBP?
Thats ridiculous. Kudos for your dedication to the game, but personally i'd never get something like this tattooed, i mean, who would you show? And why? Would they understand its meaning? Does it even have a meaning?
Allot of money, but i dunno maybe we have a different mindset. If they nerf missles will you get the caldari side removed?

If anyone does indeed go ahead, or already has gone ahead with a tattoo, then please drop me a line in-game. I'd love other people to blog thier experiences etc on there.

I did get it waxed the night before the first session - this session caught me un-awares as I normally like a clean back when I go
And you should consider the Guristas tat, would look good on a chick imho.
