Were you living on a prayer? 
How'd that tat feel on your gut anyway? I noticed it's not finished......... 
Had a buddy do it, it was one of his first 20 tats and it didn't hurt to bad, but he kept hitting nerves. Every 10 seconds I felt like I was gonna puke or shit myself.. ha-ha.. Dude was deep with the needle, thought he was a blood drive guy.. Looking at having it covered when we go to vegas in 4 weeks. The wife hates it, so might let her get her way and just cover it up. I got my daughters feet prints on my ribs from her birth cert. and I fell asleep on that one. Tattoo chick had to wake me up when she was done, Smoked a Blunt and passed out!
But the Stomach was crazy for sure, not a bad spot unless the artist doesnt know what they're doing.
