Second Tattoo

Well here it is the second tattoo all done and dusted. It's quite sore at the moment, presumably because each paw print is quite small and dries out quickly so have resorted to placing some clingfilm over it to help the Bepanthan keep it moist. It on my lower right arm for those of you who can't tell where it's placed and the photo doesn't help with that. Looking forward to really seeing it once the redness and the raised effect that is normal for a new tattoo have resided. I managed to heal the first one OK so fingers crossed I can manage it again with this one. Watched it being done this time and it was pretty cool, the needle is so small you can barely see it and there's no blood which is what I was concerned about, just ink which he constantly wipes away. It also helped to see which ones had been done 'cos then you know more or less how long you've got left to breathe through the pain! The guy I go to is very thorough and checks the design out for gaps etc once it's been washed off and let me tell you that distilled water feels good after the heat produced by the tattooing. Anyway have left him sketching a design out for the next one based on some thoughts and sketches I had obtained (sketch courtesy of my email pal Amber - many thanks!). Will wait a bit (famous last words) before getting the next one but still got a few more after that up my sleeve.
