Got my first one. Have to say it's an addictive process, I started out small but I think I want a few more. Pardon the farmer's tan...at the lake the week before with a t-shirt on.

Sell yourself stating you are more valuable now because you have Hendrix' signature on you.

See, that's what I've never understood about a lot of tattoos, why get something that can be replicated on some other slob. If you're going to art up your body, make it a one-of-a-kind.



My family's cross from Iona. If you don't have a rubbing of it, chances are you can't replicate it. I eventually plan to have my family history running from shoulder to shoulder. That is, if I can ever stop buying guns and bring myself to pay for more inking.

If I ever got a tattoo I'd probably base it off work by Alex Grey. Hell I'd rather get him to design something just for me.

Both are custom designs that have meaning to me. 

Im thinking i might get one more across my back but for now im good too many things i want to do to the bike and truck to be spending any more $$$ on ink.

I know I could never get him to design me something, it'd be sweet though. I just don't want an Alex Grey tattoo that everyone will say OMG TOOL, I LOVE THAT BAND when they see it.

I've spent a few summers as a pup on Mull across the the water from Iona Abbey. Nice place. Never had a clue it was such a significant place until about a year ago. Wish I'd paid more attention

I've been hankering for a tattoo for a while I just haven't came across anything I want to be branded with. Was trying to find a Pictish tribal I saw a while back but I'm having no luck and the ones I found are pretty gash.

I've been thinkning of getting a goggle out line and a nice winter scene view. Sorta like looking through the eyes of a boarder lol.  But alas I want to do a run thats almost gonna take my life for me to want to put the mountain on me.
 
I've been wanting to get a snowboard style one for some time but havent had many good ideas on how to go about it. Heck the best one i've seen so far is a dude going up on a chair lift all alone.

Does that say "Live Love Burn Die" ?
 
I've posted my tattoos up here in previous threads so I shall spare you all the sight of my pale-as-the-mid-day-sun skin.
 
A guy I know,was ever asked how many tattoos he had, he would tell people he had 1 tattoo - his arms, legs, back, chest, neck and hands were completely covered by huge, interconnected tattoos, so he just counted them all as 1.  Some people didn't catch on... Come to think of it he had W-H-A-M and P-O-W-! tattooed on his knuckles.

Yes it does, it's Atreyu lyrics from the song 'Lip gloss and black.'

I want to get that either on my shoulder blade or my side.
If I can find somebody who can/will do it, I want the blue particles done in glow in the dark ink, just cuz that'd be cool, imo.

Glow in the dark ink? Seriously?

This changes everything...

Yup. Never heard of it? I'm not too sure how well it works, or how long it lasts though.


Posted By: carl_the_sniper

Yeah I could definately see that fading away...

Gona look into it next time I am at the tattoo shop.

I've seen a few of the glow in the dark inked tattoos.  I'm not sure if this is the case for all of them, but the 3 I have seen were all done using a white-ish ink.  They were literally invisible until you shut the lights off.

Yep. That's how they work. A guy that Shorty and I know has a bunch of Nightmare before Christmas tattoos that are done in black with the glow-in-the-dark ink done for the white areas.

Works surprisingly well. I was impressed.

Cool.

Maybe I have an idea for a cool tattoo then.

I was going to get a quote on my back and a picture on my arm but maybe I wil just change it to getting the picture on my arm and the song quote written on top of it in invisible ink.

I've see it done before, and I'm not sure exactly how long it lasts, but one of the shops around my area offers free touch-ups for life, so its no big deal.

i know exactly what i want and where I want it.  I just have to get the money to get it done now.

i want some version of the two tailed lion from the czech coat of arms with RODINA written by it somewhere... that means family in czech.
