Not even dude. I'm probably somewhere between 50-70% covered, back of hand(S - both) included. Without question, the back of the hand is the least painful spot on the entire body and, coincidentally, which is fascinating itself, swells more during healing than any other body part. I couldn't make a fist or hold a pen for like a week.
Shocked how little pain there was and I'm a sissy dude! Total sissy. Whoever says tattoos don't hurt's a fuckin liar, they probably said their kids don't cry, either—lies! "I fell asleep in the chair," I've heard. :cough: Bullshit.
I'm a 5-hour max. No spot hurts less than the other, I wait years between pieces cuz of the pain. OUCH! But tops of hands hurting is fake noose!
I vaguely remembered seeing something along these lines:
I have a memory like a fukken tree 🤣
… I am surprised to hear your description of the experience, but I guess it makes sense even if it breaks the mould a bit (because hands are always exposed???)… I feel like I remember finding that areas with thin skin directly over bone (ribs, inside of feet/ankles, over collar bone, elbow, etc) tended to be like sensory radiators that send vibrating pains through the entire nervous system…but it’s been over a decade since I was in the chair…anyway that was intended to be a tip of the hat to yours truly (wait does that mean me, or you?? I guess you’ll have to decipher intent), but it sounds like it may not have felt like quite the accomplishment I had assumed it to be. I’m not in the habit of revoking niceties though, so the hat-tip stands.
I got one foot done outlined and said fuck the other one! Haha! True story.
Ribs, agreed. Dude who did my stomach said the only part that hurt worse was his dick. Like, uh.. I'll take your word for it cuz my whole stomach and chest is done and, for some reason, I couldn't imagine going Lower.
Got any on your back? I'm covered from ears to waist, that might be the toughest. Like 35 hours on my back—tribute to my mother—RIP. Usually, the first hour or so doesn't hurt but that back couldn't be more opposite. The very first dig is excruciating.

I'm tempted to skip over the fact that this cracked me up...you know, sensitivity 'n all...but with your "say what you think" model of going through life, you've opened a door for me that now I cannot close. This was a solid IRL LOL.

I do remember this - although on my back is only up high on the shoulders...that was bad enough.
YESSSSSS!!!!!
Back of the hand seems like a pretty painful spot to drill on too, btw…
Fake noose!
(What I call 'news')

Funny. When I saw that one on your foot, I swear I felt a knife go through mine!
LOL!
