So every single day, after you showered, you took the time to draw a tattoo on yourself? That's dedication.

I got 2 tattoos while I was in the military, long before I ever knew I'd be joining AXiD. I got 1 on each of my 2 deployments. I love them both, and wish I could get more. However, I cant think of anywhere else I'd feel comfortable getting one and being able to get it covered up, so the chances of that happening are slim.

yeah, every morning i would draw it, it's just a word (coincidentally a greek one, actually) so it was pretty easy... i figure, if i can't be bothered to invest 5 minutes everyday to be sure of my decision, then i probably shouldn't get it. i think it really helps when you're not sure of size, placing, colors...i've already made some changes to the original design of the twin stars i'm testing out right now, and i've only been drawing them for two days so far. it's also helpful for feedback (for example, someone pointed out that when the stars are too little and too fat, they look like snake bites). i suppose a test-run would be harder the bigger/more elaborate your tattoo, but i think it's worth the bother unless you want something that really lies beyond your own artistic skill.
