Any local Tattoo artist???
hey mods, if this belongs in eye candy, feel free to send it on over there...
but im very serious about my next tattoo im going to get, little xmas present to myself...but i was wondering if anyone did tattoo's on the side. on getting this lotus design (black outline thus far) in the center of my chest ( it's rather large in life, nipple to nipple and tip of my sternum to the bottom) and i was offered $180
my question is if anyone wanted to offer ideas on the coloring, feel free to fotoshop...for now im just getting the outline.
and if anyone doesnt already know, the lotus is a symbol of resilience and rebirth...
thanks!

I think some red/pink would look great. The flowers that are in mine have pink and yellow in them and the rest of my tattoo is black and grey.
I just looked them on google because I wasn't 100% sure on what color they exactly were and it seems they're all pink/purple with yellow. I think I'd stay with that since it is a lotus flower you might as well color it like one.

Anyways I saw your title said something about a tattoo artist, but I figured since you had a price quote you didn't need one. A few people said some negative things about the guy that did my Koi, but he did a sickass job on it for a pretty good price IMO.
Sketch @ Slamm Draggon
This is what it looked like after the first session:
This is a pic from my phone just to show how long it is. It goes from the middle of the front of my leg to almost the middle of my calf.
This is after the second session:
Of course now (4 months later) the colors don't pop as much because those were taken when everything was fresh, but all the color is still there and looks great and he gave me a good deal IMO. Around 3 hours total.
