I've seen plenty that look really good and others that look like stewed squash ....
Maybe those were supposed to BE stewed squash...?
My first one - way back when I was but a youngster - was a butterfly but not well-done. I had a do-over (I believe the technical term is coverup) by a more skilled artist and am now pleased. Artists have come a long way since many years ago and most now are extremely talented. I guess as popularity has grown, so has the field of talent.
Piercings still kind of freak me out, but much is dependent on where exactly they are. Piercings in the face distract me so much when I'm talking to someone with them that I can hardly pay attention to what they're saying.
