[JawBreaker]

---

i missed inking some skin... my work has taken over my simple hobby...
maybe one of these days i'm giving you guys a very low-low-low price for your tats.

MyMaria @ thats one sexytats you got there maria...

[st@rr]

@MyMaria: Nice one! I also have one... it's supposed to be a temporary tattoo (Henna) but I got an allergic reaction and until now, there are still traces of henna sa akong lower back (form gihapon ang design)... funny lang

@JawBreaker: so, you're a tattoo artist? Was that your work you posted above?

Leviticus 19:28- Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am Jehovah.

Hala, are we going against the bible sa pagpa tattoo?

[st@rr]

@Jawbreaker: Ah... so, that's your arm and your tattoo. Cool design!

Ako, I'm not sure if magpabutang pa kog lain tattoo... I withstood the pain but I don't want to experience it again. Sigeg twitch akong leg pag tattoo sa akong ankle...

Unsa nga part sa body ang pinaka dili sakit i-tattoo?

Oh my... this is now really going nowhere... Springfield, let me remind you how everything started in case you're lost or you forgot your previous posts.

It reminds me how you probably got offended JUST because I criticized the TATTOO place of your choice .

Let me translate your first sentence to make everything clear... "They have the exposure but it doesn't mean they're good." Is my translation correct?

Didnt I also said this after the very statement you quoted ?

Naay connection lang , but it doesnt mean na bolay-og pod sila . Just like gun shows and garden shows

That is to counter the balance so it will bgring no OFFENSE to you indirectly and to them directly .

I am really getting confused... You even admit you were criticizing Hart and Huntington (refer to the quote below)

Am I not allowed to criticized them ? Who are these guys anyways ?

Where are you getting at? Anyway, let's just leave things be and let everyone decide on their own because I don't get your statements at all... you contradict your own statements. And no, I am not up for an argument...

Exactly and thats what I thought ! Regarding the ARGUMENT ... you just did right ? LOLZ .... contradicting my statements or you refuse to accept it or cant accept it ?

If you just read my posts above carefully, you would see that I never disagreed with what you said about there are more not so famous artist that might be better than them. You are getting nowhere... THAT is not what we were talking about.

Of course you see it as GOING NOWHERE because you portrayed them as " THEY ARE ALL THAT " ... portfolios , pictue taking blah blah blah ... but when I started criticizing them , nasuko ka and dont deny that . Though I said di sila banga , you should know better that even someone in Crebu could probably be better than them who knows .

I'm not up for an argument... in fact, I'm done with this discussion because it's getting ridiculous. Let's just go back to the topic. If you have a tattoo, share it... if not, then you know what to do. .. and it's not to bash the shops where people had their tattoos done.

Again I am not bashing , I am even praising them because what they have accomplished . Dili lang nimo madawat na naay mas maayo pa nila because thats where you got your tattoo .

Browse a couple of pages of the same topic and you will find my tattoo . I already shared it long time ago .

@ IAN ... aw ngutana lang gud kay cge ra man ka ug katawa gud ... sa mubong panultion pa YANGO YANGO lang ka bisan walay kalibutan . Speaking of OPINIONS ... wala koy gi ligsan , kins aman kuno beh ? Ni agree pa man gani ko , tag-as lang ug garbo mga tao diri .

[st@rr]

tnx... ako friend nag patik ana, took approx. 2 hours gyud to finish... he used to work at maanyag but realized he'd be getting mo' money if he ventured out on his own.. he was right

2 hours? dugay dugay sad noh? Akong dolphin, around 30mins... maayo rasad... kay gi sakitan gyud ko

Here was my reply to your first post:

I'm sorry but I don't believe so. These guys have buit their reputation already. When we went there, we didn't know how famous and good these people are until we saw a lot of people lining outside to get their tattoos done... murag ga linya sa MCDO. I have a friend who's staying in vegas and he said they're one of the best tattoo places in vegas... famous actors and actresses go there too. I even saw one episode at INKED where they featured the lead singer of Greenday. Anyway, it's not that im defending them because we had our tattoos done there, it's because I believe that their popularity is not based on their connections but on how good they are at what they do. They may not be the best among all the tattoo studios in the world, but they're good enough to be recognized and featured in the US local channel. And anyway, we have been there, we think they're good and we're satisfied with their work.

Now tell me, where did I say that THEY ARE ALL THAT? You better stop putting words in my mouth. I never denied in the first place that there are people who are better than them that are unrecognized. IT'S A KNOWN FACT. In any industry... in singers, writers, actors, actresses, etc.

Dili lang nimo madawat na naay mas maayo pa nila because thats where you got your tattoo .

Prove your accusations please... Again, let me remind you, I never said that they were the BEST, did I? I just don't understand why you said what you said when you don't even know their artists in the first place. YOU think you know way better than us... tellling us to go to tattoo conventions to find the REAL DEAL of who's who in the tattoo industry. Are you saying that everyone here should go to a tattoo convention first before getting a tattoo? What's up with your statement anyway? I wasn't even bragging about them... I just said I had my tattoo done there and I was satisfied. What's the big deal?

They have the exposure but it doesnt mean mga maayo sila . Naay connection lang , but it doesnt mean na bolay-og pod sila . Just like gun shows and garden shows , go to TATTOO SHOWS during conventions and there you can meet and see the REAL DEAL of the TATTOO INDUSTRY of whos who .

Oh right exactly... you were praising them in this statement. I must've misunderstood it lang.

st@rr: pasagdi lang na ninyo uy. =)

[st@rr]

@djereza: Yeah... that's what I've decided to do. Thanks

You know what are your inconsistencies why we end up like these ?

- your friend said they are ONE of the best in Vegas .

What are the basis of your friend ? If you ask I can give you basis why I can say they are good artist but difinitely NOT ONE of the best in Vegas even in the TOP 5 .

- you said they are GOOD ENOUGH to be recognized and featured in a local US channel

I said they have CONNCECTIONS to the RIGHT people . Do you even know the MALOOFS and the BRENDEN's of Palms ?

-You said "I believe that their popularity is not based on their connections but on how good they are at what they do. "

I said they have conncectons because if they based the SKILLS and who will be featured in TV shows and sits in an expensive atmosphere .... they wont even havre a chance and you wanna bet on that if you still diasgrees with me ?

Now tell me, where did I say that THEY ARE ALL THAT? You better stop putting words in my mouth. I never denied in the first place that there are people who are better than them that are unrecognized. IT'S A KNOWN FACT. In any industry... in singers, writers, actors, actresses, etc.

Thats what you are trying to IMPLY and when you said that you as consumers are satisfied are on a second note only as clearly as what you have described .

Prove your accusations please... Again, let me remind you, I never said that they were the BEST, did I? I just don't understand why you said what you said when you don't even know their artists in the first place.

Now ... now ... who is ACCUSING ? I never said I knew their artist personally , I knew how they worked though .

YOU think you know way better than us...

Hold your horses ! Hehehehe .... dont mislead people through my expense please . Since when did that happen ?

tellling us to go to tattoo conventions to find the REAL DEAL of who's who in the tattoo industry.

That is one thing to consider when you are in TATTOOS , let me remind you DOLPHIN ra na ang patik nimo yadz so please ayaw seryosoha okies ? BTW , I said it as a suggestion not tell it like you have no option at all ..

Are you saying that everyone here should go to a tattoo convention first before getting a tattoo?

2 letters and 1 word for you ... NO

What's up with your statement anyway? I wasn't even bragging about them... I just said I had my tattoo done there and I was satisfied. What's the big deal?

This is the very statement I am really WAITING for you to say . Yeah whats the BIG DEAL anyways ? For me ? Nothing ! I was just merely CRITICIZING what I knew and there you are going ballistic . BALLISTIC for what ? Because you cant agree with me ? I did agree on you , I dont get the drift of your drama girl !

Oh right exactly... you were praising them in this statement. I must've misunderstood it lang.

Didnt I say they can still be GOOD ARTIST and NO DOUBT about that but they are not FAMOUS anymore ?

Yeah... that's what I've decided to do.

LOLZ ... now who is CONTRADICTING ?

I now rest my case ... I dont know why whats the BIG DAL for you ! And not for me ..... please , dont drag me into a conversation that misleads people through expense . Kilatan ta ana yadz . Lets go back to the topic .
