I got one when I turned 18. I had an idea for a long time of a tiger and a dragon but I am not a good artist at all. When I went to Toronto for my Uncle's funeral, I was talking with my cousin about it. He helped me get it onto paper, told me he knew a good place, and talked me into it. It turns out with the exchange rate for US$, it was a lot cheaper than if I had gotten it done here.
My artist was this big, intense looking guy who turned out to be one of the nicest people I've met (ahh those Canadians...). I was getting it on my left shoulder blade area. When he started, it felt like he was cutting me open. After a while it started tickling in certain spots. I don't remember exactly but I think it took 3 to 4 hours straight. Unfortunatly someone decided to put Kid Rock in the CD player because I told them I was from Michigan. I think that was the worst part.
But seriously, it wasn't that bad, and right after I felt like I wanted more. My cousin said I looked like I was going to cry though. 3 years later, I still like the way it turned out.
