I disagree. The rule of thumb is that you should be able to see a tatt at 10'. Any smaller and it's too hard to notice and since all tatts blur over time, will eventually lose their definition and become indecipherable.
An experienced inker will thus discourage clients from getting tiny tatts. It's anybody's call, but there are general drawbacks to going below a minimum size here.
Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
I don't know ANY artists, except piss poor ones, who would discourage a small tat. In fact the majority of artists I know love small work because it challenges them more than a large piece does.

But how are those intricate pieces going to look 20 years from now? A blurred mess. Some might like the challenge...but they are not thinking ahead for their clients.
The top inkers in the world do BIG pieces - shoulder one-points, sleeves, backs...that's about all you see showcased in their portfolios too.
Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
I'm trying to figure out how my tattoo is going to look like a blurred mess...
... it's not like it's a COMPLICATED small tattoo.
Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
It's cute and fun... I like it!
Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
coming from someone who is not only a life long geek, but a big apple fan and a lover of tattoos..

Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
So how is it computed? The binary of the ASCII number associated with that character?
Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
I have this T-shirt. It glows in the dark, too.

Perhaps a time when smaller is better.

From a shoot we did to promote ourselves on our clubs website (talk about nerve wracking, they're all ten or more yrs younger than me lol)... it shows off her geek tat nicely. :)

Lillith, I think the binary added to your exsisting "power button" will be cool as shit. :)
Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
That's cool LM :D Apple does win ;)
Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
Love the power button great position for it :)
Like the XIII idea too:

Not really a fan of the binary idea tbh, equally geeky however and imo would look better :P Matrix text.. obviously problem with that is it's fictional so won't translate into anything nice like 'Angel'

Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
Excellent tattoo! I like it almost as much as my "Your Name" tattoo, though mine isn't as geeky.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE the Nanaki/Red XIII tattoo, very nice!

I was all over you today and I didn't notice it! :O My bad :-[
As for work and tattoos... I'm DYING to get a whole heap of tattoos (I've had them planned for ages - what I will get and where I will have it done etc) however ... i'm in the same boat... one of my USPs (unique selling positions) is the fact that I have a "virgin" body..... NO TATTOOS just my birthmark
My birth-mark is actually going to be part of one of my tattoos.. I was blessed with a birth mark that looks like the map of Australia minus tasmania (lol) so I was going to have a map of Australia "outline" my birthmark as such.
Anyway.. kewl tatt Morr!! ;D
You be the tattooed one. I will be the "virgin skinned" one :D
Re: I got a tramp stamp!!
I can't believe you didn't notice, lol! It's over a month old and healed nicely now! :)
I'll describe what I want to you later over coffee and you can tell me the same! :)
