well, im dark skinned and i'd want to know if all the tattoos suck on people like me, because everytime i see like a dark skinned tattooed mix martial fighter on tv, they suck, its like they dont have the enough amount of color or they arent as noticeable as white peoples
is it possible to get something this colorful in dark skin?

Depends on how dark your skin is, could you post a picture (arm, leg, ass, no matter what)?
The most common trick is to make it a negative, with your actual skin being used for the dark parts of the tattoo, but we're talking MMA fighters here, so they probably don't have the IQ anymore to think of that.
i took one of my upper body

Most tattoos should work fine on that, thought you were black :v:

But yeah with that skintone the tattoo artist will just mix the colours a bit lighter to counteract the pigment in the skin, nothing to worry about if you go to a decent place, just ask first and they can usually answer stuff like this.
thanks guys...anyway...how much would cost if i want to tattoo both of my arms (just forearms)?
considering a good place?
Highly depends on the tattoo artist, but always be wary about places that are cheap, and make sure they sterilize shit and use good ink, and always ask for a portfolio.

Oh and it's always a good idea to look up a place online, might get lucky and find some reviews.

seems like you have got some tattoos already
I don't but I've got a few friends that are tattoo artists.
That brings me to another thing, don't get a tattoo for the sake of getting a tattoo, have it mean something, or you will regret it later.

Oh and don't get tribal shit, it makes you look like a douchebag :v:

The price really depends on how you want to get your sleeves, like the one in the OP is made seperately, with the three designs(the skull, symbol and dragon) made at different points in time, and then later being joined together by the flames, this is usually more expensive due to having to having several sessions, but is less stressful for your skin, and most tattoo artists recommend a smaller tattoo to be your first, but I'm guessing you do martial arts so you're probably used to a bit of pain.
One thing I really wouldn't recommend though, is doing both your sleeves at the same time, since then both your arms will need to be protected until it heals, which is something that's very important to avoid scarring. Like maybe do one arm and get the other made when that one is healed.

Get Black tattoos, Antwuan Dixon. Nuff said
you're handsome
If you want to get both arms done, it's gonna be at LEAST $500. I have one on my left arm and it's about three inches by 1 inch and it cost me $60.
