I talked about it with Chris, my tattooist friend. He said he feels like an artist when he uses his own designs and he gives them only to people who he thinks match them. Otherwise he doesn't do in the spur of the moment things, things that would look ugly because the picture is inappliccable (dunno if it's the right word) If people really want them he works on the pictures with them. In my case he was under the impression I knew what I wanted, so he did it. He wasn't so sure about where I wanted it though, and he was right it hurt very, very bad.
