i dunno, with a habs logo, it would have to be white, now that i think about it, it'll probably look a lot better if i just go with the one in my avatar instead of the traditional one.

Alright I'm calm now...just had to blow some steam off there earlier...sorry DarkCanuck!!

I've got a tattoo on my back and part of it involved "white" colour...we decided to go with my natural skin colour as "Tiny" the Tat Guy said that they don't have a good white ink yet. And you have to be careful about the red ink as well...it is advised that he/she go over it twice to make sure it has good coverage as it's one of the coulours that tend to fade quickly.

Goulet!!!

I know what you mean about the red colour. One of mine has red letters and over the course of time it has faded considerably. Also, I didn't realize it at the time, but the lines are "smudged", although this maybe as a result of my skin stretching when I was pregnant. (O.K., that may be too much information. Sorry....)



Ron, that is some seriously nice work. I see what you and Goulet mean about using natural skin tone and I think that maybe the way I'll go. Thanks for sharing the pics. Hope you share the new tat with us as well. I would love to see it.

Canuck, if I may, I suggest going with your av regardless of the white ink issue. There are probably loads of people with Habs tats. I doubt any of them are the vintage logo like that one, so it makes it that much more unique. Just a thought....

Interesting... not quite how I was picturing it in my mind... but it looks good.
