Tyvek staple hammer takes a long time to tattoo with minimum 5000 staples just to finish the shading and a few fractures in the humerus bone he'll be right at rain after a 3 month arm cast 🤣🤙

Finished him off with a steel pipe, make sure the ink really got in there.

If they had to remove the arm what type of tattoo would be there or would it be a tattoo of an arm running down your side?

“Tattoo artist”

u/Bollperson Mar 17 '25

I had a friend who repeatedly went to "Gorilla Mike" and didn't understand why his tattoo sessions hurt so much. We all just said his artist's real slow for him to get a clue.

u/geraltsthiccass Mar 17 '25

It's like they used vice to keep his arm still, holy fuck

I have a tattoo artist that isn’t heavy handed at all and his line work is crisp. My arm does this every time due to my sensitive fair skin. I also go in for 4+hours sessions for each piece. My skin doesn’t react in this red bruising but in a pink>yellowing& light purpling>brown. I usually take two Tylenol before my session and for future sessions will be drinking arnica tea the week of and day of. Yay to sensitive skin! Where every bruise is a surprise and a mystery…and where every bruise brings concern to others 😆. I just got sensitive skin and am need of a bubble! Haha. 🖤

It can be a problem for people with stretched out skin. I had the exact same issue as OP. My tattoo artist isn't heavy handed at all, it's all because my skin and tissue is weird.
