Hey, it is sensitive. Especially since there are a lot of veins there, and not a lot of fat covering them. It hurt more on the end by the heart than it did by the J cause the skin is much thinner there. A few times my foot was trembling because of the pain, but for some reason we tolerate tattoo pain much better than other pain. I guess cause we know the end result will be worth it. It does hurt, but you would do it again in an instant I think! And Nate, is that really your tat? That is fucking incredible!
I'm such a dick,completely forgot about this thread,and yeah the pain isn't really an issue,although when u have larger work done u have to have it done in stages cos the area swells and then your just dragging a needle through an aggrevated,sensitive and swollen area. I'm saving for my t-shirt now,and looking for an exceptional artist to do it.Have you seen the tattoo mags?
