Silly question, but is it possible to get a tattoo done in just a brown color, like a color similar to a brown freckle? I know nothing of tattoos but trying to find out for my bday in a month.

correct me if i'm wrong, but a tat can be done in any color with the exception of white. not to say it can't be done, it just wouldn't look right.

I dont have any recent flicks of my tats but my old lady has this one so I decided to use it. Shows off some of my arm. I have the inside of my arm done as well plus a small piece on my neck, a couple on my back and my knuckles done as well. Ill try to find my digi this weekend and take a couple flicks.

That's amazing toaster, looks GREAT, almost real.. but why would you want a photobucket error tattoo on you? Do you work for them or something?

white can be used as well. my aunt just got one done which has white in it for highlights. but the white was done very last and over other color to make it stand out more.

I had white once before and it lasted about a whole 48 hours (if that). It's not a color typically used a lot for that reason. Most good artists will tell you that.
