Trying to get myself out there and get my art noticed is ridiculously difficult, I don't know how anyone does it. :')

It's always odd checking back in here and seeing the old faces that are still around and those that aren't

Does any of you have an idea whether it is alright to get a tattoo over a scar? I would really like to cover up two scars.

I'm not an expert, so take anything I say with a grain of salt, but it's not impossible. It might hurt more though depending on how old the scars are, and I think there are some restrictions on certain designs that look good because the ink bleeds differently on scar tissue?

But you can also use the scar to incorporate into a design rather than fully covering it up too. :orly:

I have this dumb idea where I tattoo a knife over all my random straight-line scars, at which point I will fully embody 2013 tumblr edginess

Cause I know there's always the possibility that the buyer will indeed let the seller know via PM or send the creature's actual worth in the trade, so that's what makes it a little iffy as to if it's something that should be brought up to a mod or not, not to mention maybe the seller doesn't really care that they're getting so much less for a creature worth so much more.

I dunno, it seems kinda like a weird situation; like my first instinct was to report it, but then I started thinking over it and decided not to yet. Paint me confused. :derr:
If the seller set the price and the buyer agreed to it, then it's a valid sale. You could pm the seller, but there's fair odds they know. I undersell - well, undertrade - donis on a regular basis. I know full well I'm under shard-to-gold conversion rates, but it doesn't bother me. It gives folks who can't buy shards a chance at the donis, and gets me creatures I don't have the gold for., so I'm happy.

My mother wants to do the same for a scar on her left arm. Scar tissue can be tattooed (I knew a gal years ago who got a tattoo running the width of her stomach over her cesarean section scar), but from what I know about the process, depending on the type of injury (severity and nerve damage), damaged skin tends to be more sensitive than undamaged skin when tattooed.





Unrelated.

I'm cold. Weather just went right from blazing hot to below freezing. Out go the shorts, in come the sweaters. Never can have it just in between. :sulk:

That's what I figured, but we're talking like... over 200k too low, that the person sold something for. That's a huuuuge gap, versus them selling a critter worth 5k, for 100g. All the same, it's not my business, so I guess there's not much that can be done, except to make a note for myself of who was involved and to avoid interaction with them if possible. :t-shrug: Still kinda shocking to see something like that happen, though.
