Q. I'm adding to my tattoos and have hit a block. I'm looking to do either a half sleeve or at least a good portion of the upper arm. I like the symbolism of koi fish, the overcoming odds and strength but, i want some other ideas than just the fish because i already have one. Any ideas how to capture the same idea?
A. you could do a really cool etherial tipped scale. you could do the ani difranco woman where its a shillouhete of a woman showing her muscles. my own personal tattoo is one i like. its kinda of mantra for me "im the strongest girl i know" those are just some ideas
How do i start tattoo sleeves?
Q. Hey i'm a girl, 18, kind of edgy/punk/rocker whatever you wanna call it. Eventually i'd like tatto half-sleeves on both arms, like to a little past the elbow. I have no idea how i should start them out, and i'm open to many suggestions. Something feminine, but badass? Lol xD
A. Steps in getting a Sleeve tattoo:
You choose the following:
1. The concept or theme. For example is it going to be about music, love, romance, Alice in Wonderland, or nature. This is all up to you. It should always reflect who you are in your heart and soul.
2. You choose the style. Here are the main ones: Tribal, Fineline Color, Fineline Black and grey, Japanese, Traditional America or New School. If you need examples feel free to email me and I will send some.
3. Pick the images you want in the sleeves. For example a music sleeve would have your favorite musicians, instruments, music staff and notes, etc. They should be in the same theme or they look weird.
4. Next you choose open or closed sleeves. Open sleeves leaves lots of space between the images to give it an airy feel. Closed sleeves means all skin is tattooed even between images, this give the sleeve a more powerful look and feel. The choice is up to you.
5. Next choose an artist. This is not for the average tattoo artist. It has to be a master artist, someone who has done a lot of sleeves. Many times there are none in your area so you will have to travel. If you need recommendations email me at the email address below and I will give you some.
6. The rest is up to the custom artist. They will draw up the sleeve first and show you what they have, except tribal is best drawn right on the arm. Make sure you tell them you want a proper sleeve, which means it should start on the top of the shoulder, include the armpit (Yeah it hurts) and finish on the top of the hand like an opera glove. If you want it perfect you can include knuckle and finger tattoos. Don�t worry about the hand, because with a full sleeve it cannot be hid anyway, so everyone will know so why not do it right.
7. Next get a second job if not rich, just to pay for the sleeves because they are very expensive.

Good Luck. When sleeves are done right on a woman, they can look awesome and even change your entire life for the better.
