    i heart you, too, Jerry... :)


    JHL, there's no story needed; i LOVE Ferraris, that's it. i don't have or need a story for my other two tattoos, so there's nothing needed for this one... It's within a "shirt", so employers can't see it, that's my only concern... Bradley did an EXCELLENT job; i'm very pleased with the outcome...


    Pat, i'll give him one this weekend... :)


    Mitch, thanks... i think everyone should have a Prancing Horse tattoo... :)

    Congrats on the Tat Carbon, I have three of them myself. (non Ferrari) I was thinking about getting another, Maybe the NART logo. I suprised that you didn't get a Ferrarichat / Rosso 4 life.

    Here's some info on tattoo care.

    The first thing to remember about your tattoo is that this is a lifetime investment! Do not rely on information from friends about the care of your new tattoo. The artist will provide you with the proper care for the tattoo.

    Generally, if your tattoo has been bandaged, leave it on for approximately two hours. Then, wash it gently with luke warm water using antibacterial soap. Pat it dry, do not rub. This washing should occur three to four times a day.

    Do no apply another bandage to the tattoo. Allow it to be exposed to air. This will help the healing process. Also, try to avoid tightly fitted clothing. Clean, loose clothing will be the best.

    After washing, apply very thing coasts of Bacitracin or A&D Ointment and work it into the skin. Do not over apply. Apply just enough so that the tattoo appears shiny. If you can see the ointment on your skin, you are using too much.

    Do not soak the tattoo in water or let the shower directly spray hard onto it. Also, avoid swimming pools, the ocean, hot tubs or any other source of water, aside from the shower, until the tattoo is healed. Also avoid getting the new tattoo sunburned until it is healed. All of these can fade the tattoo and hinder the healing process.

    When the tattoo begins the healing process, do not directly scratch the tattoo. Itching means healing and a little bit of alcohol will relieve the itch. Also, do not pick the scabs that may form. Let them fall off gradually. This will usually happen in one to three weeks.

    If swelling or redness occurs, you can use ice packs to help the swelling go down.

    Most importantly, notify a doctor if you have even the slightest sign of infection.

    The healing process can be as little as one week or as long as six weeks or more depending on the size and complexity of your particular design.

    Thanks, Will; that's pretty much exactly what Bradley told me to do... Slightly different from what the artists of my first two told me, though... Either way, it's good advice... :)

    Opps! Sorry, I thought this one was your first tattoo, never mind the tat care above. I didn't notice the other one you had.

    Bradley, having had two done already, years ago and going with my uncle for a few of the many he has, i'm not unfamiliar with the atmosphere and culture of tattoos... Beyond the fact that i love this one and that it was done very well, it was obvious that you've got plenty of experience, you know what you're doing and you go about it in a proper and professional manner... i will definitely recommend you in the future (but i'm keeping the card for my collection!:D)

    I would like that tatoo on my back or on my heart. Will keep it in mind if I am ever in NY!

    Long live Bradley's ink! :)

    Yeah - one that says, "Ferrari Dino"

    Carbon - any plans to get a tat across your rear decklid? If you do, please do not *dry heaves* post pics. Seriously, I had dry heaves at the *dry heaves* thought of it. *Returns from Hades* - you da man.

    B!tchin'... i'm really happy with this newest one... :)


    Hey, does anyone know if it's true or not, that if you put Neosporin on a freshly inked tattoo, it will act like a disinfectant and draw the ink right out of your skin...?

    Thats some good inking man. I've been wanting to get a Scuderia shield on the back of my right shoulder for some time now but I'm hesitant about permanent things sometimes. Like your sleeves too Bradley! Also Carb, aweasome tat man.
