"A few years ago I was tattooing a client who had apparently lost a bet, his buddies were allowed to tattoo something behind his shoulder as long as it wasn’t racist or offensive.
Turns out the guy drew up a design of 'A Leprechaun throwing up on a book'... Sure, why not, everyone was sober and they were paying pounds upfront.
Easy work- the drawing was really simple and the shading was easier than I thought it’d be.
Turns out everyone liked it... Except the guy with the tattoo of a leprechaun throwing up on a book. He picked at the scab, trying to get rid of it, completely took it from bad to worse.
Comes in about ten days later, demanding a refund of money HE didn’t pay or the studio, not me, cover it up. Nope, management said you signed for it in your right mind and then damaged it yourself. Personally, I was yelled at and told NEVER tattoo anyone like that, it only works in television series or film."
Here's the thing, never bet anyone if you think you might lose. This guy did and definitely paid a hefty price for it. The worst part is, he became a sore loser and tried to blame the artist for it. That's not cool.
