Tattoo, you?

[GreyWanderer]

For those who were interested, hers an update on a post made a while back regarding Tattoos.

After a grand total of 8+ hours in the chair, from outline to final inking, the dragon on my back is complete.

Images will be posted when it has healed. Right now, its like a drum, and stretched almost as tight. Makes it somewhat difficult to do much, even sleep, as i do not rest upon my side very well. i am most definetly a back sleeper, and to rest on my stomach is most uncomfortable...even more so now.

The pain was not so bad. I found the outline to be somewhat more of a sharper sensation than the actual filling in. After the first sitting last Thursday, there was still some residual burning that caried over to the Friday sitting...which, in turn is still...there.

As much as I would like to take some time off work to regain what I have lost in sleep, I wont. I will deal with the lingering burn of the "dragon's flame" and make sure it is kept care of. Part of the tradition, after all, both in the art sense and for me, in the spiritual.

If you dont see me post much this week, y'all know why.

-Grey

[Kute Kitty]

8 hours??! Wow...

Can't wait for pictures, and good luck sleeping.

[TheFakeBarbie]

Man. You are a patient man to sit there for 8 hours.

And I'm with Kitty on this one, PICS! :D

[The_Dark_Poet]

Meh....nice. I think my wings are going to take just about as long as your dragon, if not longer....hehe

[Moira_Kiss]

this is the tattoo artist, Niko who did it for me... such a dork, but absolutely sweet as pie.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v240/moira_kiss/tat002.jpg

[Darmo]

That's hot!
Seriously... it looks good. Egypt and other old cultures has a lot of symbols that make excellent tatoos.

That Niko guy looks a bit insane... ;)

[Kaylin]

Very nice.

I am jealous as all hell.

~Kaylin

[Moira_Kiss]

im freakin happy as hell, it doesnt even hurt or anything... it didnt swell nothing...


course work is going to ****in flip out when they notice.. and when i tell them i cant wear a long sleeve shirt till its completely healed... :p

[NightElf]

ITs amazing! I so want a tattoo.

-Michelle

[The Hanged Man]

Cool stuff babe, I want another peice on my back, but seeing your work on the forearms makes me want one there, I was thinking a line of runes or something.

Its very pretty m'darlin', but very addictive!

[Moira_Kiss]

yeah heh, as soon as i got it done, i want another one... im gonna get one on the back of my neck...


and supposedly where i got mine was supposed to hurt... but it didnt... i was all disappointed :p

[ShaReB]

LoL
Egyptian tattos rule :p

[BurningRedEyes]

very, very nice. i'd like an egyptian cat on my back.

[InTheCloset]

I've been thinking of getting a tattoo like that. I'm just not sure where, and until I'm sure I'm not getting one.

[Moira_Kiss]

shareb you only like it because your egyptian, i therefore *VOID* your opinion ;)


*stamps his post with a VOIDED stamp*


yesh.... apparently, a lot of people want one of these... and im like NO! s'mine you biatch :D

so maybe ill hafta throw down... but i did mean a very nice pagan lady at the goddess shop with one on each foot.

[zumzy]

Yes it is very nice. What's it significance?
By the way, that's one sexy wrist...;)

[Amara]

Nice tattoo Moira!!!!

I don't have a pic of mine, since it is on my right butt.......but as soon as I get one, I'll post it...

[Dark Faire]

yeah this is way outdated but i can't sleep so i'm posting a lot.....

8 f*cking hours! jesus tap dancing christ man.... the longest i sat in the chair was one hour...

but that has got to look way cool.... did you post pics yet? i'm just too lazy to look in the gallery...

:beerme

[WinterOfDarknes]

Merry Meet everyone

If, or should I say when, I get a tattoo I want to go Big. Like maybe my whole upper torso. I kindda have an idea, you guys tell me want you think. :D

A short sleeve chainlink shirt all around my body, not just the front, with a penticle in the middle of my pecs. With a cresent moon inside the penticle. :ha

Yeah, maybe that's a bit much, or sounds kindda stupid :disgust
but that what I want none the less. :D

[Night Mistress]

WOD, that actually sounds sexy... :)
I don't have any tattoos yet... but the one Im getting is on the first page of my website found in my profile... its a rose dripping blood from the head into a pool beneth the stem... I think its hott. :)

[GreyWanderer]

yeah this is way outdated but i can't sleep so i'm posting a lot.....

:beerme

I will grab my digital cam and post shots by tomorow.

-Grey

[Kute Kitty]

It's tomorrow.

Pictures please.

[Dark Faire]

i think the chain link shirt may be a bit much... but it's all in what you want... not what everyone else thinks... the pentacle sounds way awesome....

:beerme

[GreyWanderer]

It's tomorrow.

Pictures please.

You got it.....here. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v203/ThorneSunstar/tat.jpg)

-Grey

[Dark Faire]

d*mn..... that's impressive

:beerme

[Kute Kitty]

And I thought I'd seen some decent dragons before...that just blows everything else out of the water.

DAMN that must've hurt. But definitely worth it.

[GreyWanderer]

Hurt? It had its moments. ;)
It took about two weeks for the dragon to settle in and stop burning me, but indeed, it was worth every minute.

-Grey

[sute_sis]

That looks really cool! I like dragons. It's huge! Heh, I don't think I'd ever get a tatoo... *fears the pain* :ha AHA HA HA HA HA I'm afraid of big scary needles... *thoughtful* But I do have my ears pierced 8 times... Hmm... How's that work?

[Dark Faire]

i was afraid of needles too for the longest time and wasn't sure if i wanted my first tattoo because of the needle... but it wasn't that bad at all... i actually have two now.... they were both worth it...

:beerme

[sute_sis]

i was afraid of needles too for the longest time and wasn't sure if i wanted my first tattoo because of the needle... but it wasn't that bad at all... i actually have two now.... they were both worth it...

:beerme

How big are they Dark Faire? How much did they cost?

[Dark Faire]

not very big.... they are both about an inch and a half... the one on my sholder only cost me fifty because i was in detroit.... the one on my ankle cost me seventy-five because i was up north in the middle of f*cking no-where...

:beerme

[sute_sis]

That's a little expensive for such a small thing. I'm also worried about the needle not being sterilized... (I'm such a worry wart.)

If I get more than one request for it, I might. Not that I am an exhibitionist or anything..I just like having my ego stroked.

thanks
xxxxx

[Usual_Suspect11]

My current tattoo wants are a trileske and still and yet again; small butterfly wings....one filled in completely and the other just the black outline on my back. Question is will the want carry over into my 18+ days?

[GreyWanderer]

if it means something to you, then yes. if its a spur of the moment thing, no.

-Grey

[Incognys]

well, since january i've got 2 tats. one in memory of my father on my right should/arm. it's just a cross wrapped in like a torn ribbon and it says "RIP DAD" it's black, and yellow. and the 2nd one i just got about 2 weeks ago. it's on my right forearm. it's a man standing infront of a stone cross being executed by a firing squard. the firing squad isn't visible it's just the man and the cross. once i get pictures, i'll show who ever wants to see it. and for those afraid of the pain. it's not really that bad, honestly both of mine didnt hurt, but everyone is different. and pricing varies from artist to artist. the size is just a small factor. anyways that's my two cents.

[Keolldee]

I've got quite a few tattoos.......My most recent one is a black & white piece of the Leo zodiac symbol with smoke rising from it.

[Keolldee]

Grey - I'm not sure how I missed this post before........I just saw the pic of your dragon.........It looks awesome!

[devilsreject]

I got about 15, i gotta take some pics and post them

[DarkPrincess]

I have 3 tattoos. I want more, I just have not had the money for any. lately.

[JustJennie]

Tats are so awesome. Especially guys who have them across their back and shoulders *yUm*.

Here's mine for now

money is definetly needed for many things inlife..... i'm realizing this as i type...

:beerme

[lost-raven7213]

i dont have one yet. i plan on getting one when im 18.

[LadyRaven]

my bf had his paul booth viking-looking demon done and our tattoo artist, Joe Finch, he has yet to come up with a complicated ankh design... oh, my bf has a heartagram done just for me.. i'll try to put up his tattoo pictures... and gosh, you guys have gorgeous tattoos... and paul booth is a GENIUS!..

[Blaque_Kat]

This is my black cat tattoo that i composed and got done at work. i've got another one around my belly button but i couldnt find a good picture of that. im working on a lower back piece right now.

[Darkness Rising]

Nice ink Kat!

My school hates me because I have a large Illuminati Diamond on my hand. They usually don't mind tats as long as you can't see them very well. I also have the Purgatory symbol on my back.

[gothic_fairy]

This is my black cat tattoo that i composed and got done at work. i've got another one around my belly button but i couldnt find a good picture of that. im working on a lower back piece right now.

That is so pretty! Its purrrrfect for you :love

[Blaque_Kat]

Thanks! It took me about a year of me redoing it before I quit messing around with it and got it done. It is very me tho. i agree.

[NightElf]

Yup Kat it is very nice. Could I have you make me a lower back one? *smiles prettily*

Me wants kind of tribal tihngy.. or.. well.. a rose or a hear tint he middle, and a nice patterny tribaly thingy growing out of it... Soft lines and curves are.. perfect...

-Michelle

[NightElf]

And I have to say over and voer again... Dallas, yoyu looked fantastic before, but that dragon just makes you.. God, I can't describe it.. *nibbles on*

-Michelle

[Darkness Rising]

I liked and still like the Redwall books by Brian Jaques.

I liked and still like the Redwall books by Brian Jaques.

Am I missing something here or does that have no relevance to tattoos?

Oh, ****. I'm sorry. I was baked...... my bad..

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v240/Hattrick756/Mytattoo.jpg

Its my first name (top) and last name (bottom) in druidic (or Arian for you tightwads out there) runes. I love it, took me a few good hours to tranlslate but i dun it. Took another hour in the chair, and the spider is just an added effect :teufel115

[NightElf]

I've seen that sig before.. *ponders*

smilespin Heya, Intruder756 AIM Hattrick756 Yahoo Hattrick@kidsloveguns.com MSN im bored alot

[Kronos]

grey, i was just wondering where you got your design from? is it original or a stock tat? im trying to get something designed and the style of yours is quite similar to what i had in mind

[charli d]

i got one across my lower bk of a sun with the moon in it with waves coming away from it i designed most of it. i want all the elements tattooed on me and this was my first step fire and water next im getting the earth and then wind
most likely in japanese. i love tattoos.
fair warning to any one who wants a lower back tattoo it hurts badly over the kidney areas. i shaked soo badly the artist had to stop at times. i'll post pics soon

[GreyWanderer]

grey, i was just wondering where you got your design from? is it original or a stock tat? im trying to get something designed and the style of yours is quite similar to what i had in mind


Woah! A Question?!? Awsome! Much better than the other crud Ive had to wde through of late.

To answer, the design I now bear was something that caught my eye in form. The "t" look with the wings and exteneded serpentine body fit so well to my own shape that I knew it would be perfect. I searched for a few different design and found something that sort of matched my idea to what I wanted and used it as a template for shape, making it appear a little more edgy and sharp in the tribal form.

Technically, it is not an original design, nor is it a straight copy. Even my inker made a few more adjustments to it before it was laid down.

-Grey

[Kronos]

im rather glad to know that it wasn't straight from the book, i've always held more original work in a higher regard. The shape of it is perfect on you and I think the tribal style is spot on.

how much was yours? The one I have in mind would only tilt towards a tribal desing slightly, undoubtedly adding more time to it being a fuller design. I spoke with an artist up in atlanta when i was planning something a bit more extravagant and now that i've scaled the design back im trying to get some kind of comparison on hours of work and the like.

excuse me for being so round-a-bout in talking about the design i want, i'd rather not anyone else get the idea of having it done, especially before I can afford to do it myself. I had once intended on getting an Alice tattoo on my upper arm until I noticed someone else with the exact same ink already.

That's why I dont like the idea of getting something so ordinary such as a heart or four leaf clover or that type of crap. It is meant to be a peice of art, and as famous as warhol may have been, commercialism is not an art form.

[GreyWanderer]

Totally agree with you on every pint there, Kronos.

As far as cost, I beleive the final total was $500.00. 8 hours woth of ink time and alot of good laughs and conversation.

And that added bonus of letting someone kinda special to see it first before all else.

-Grey

[charli d]

awww how cool grey...
i posted my tattoo its under the pix charli dx pix!!! check it out!

[touchcrew]

Damn 8 Hours the longest I have ever sat must have been 3 hours

[Xenophia]

That's hot!
Seriously... it looks good. Egypt and other old cultures has a lot of symbols that make excellent tatoos.

That Niko guy looks a bit insane... ;)


yeah :D Arabic countries` Tatooes rock bcuz mostly they come out of cultures and stuff.. anyway I live nearby Egypt and i talk Egyptian very well :D :D

about me, i don't have any tattoo, cuz according to our religion, it's a tabboo

[Loosifah]

Here are a couple of my newer (and therefore better) tats.

[Green Eyes]

Nice tats Loosifah, where are they on your body?

Also, Grey Wanderer, do you have a pic of your dragon tat? Because the photoshop link isn't working and I would love to see it.

[GreyWanderer]

Ill repost..here you go.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v203/ThorneSunstar/tat.jpg



-Grey

[Loosifah]

The face is on my inner left forearm, the top of it is just below the elbow joint. The colourful abstract skeleton (yes, it's a skeleton) covers my right outer forearm.

[Dark Faire]

i'm getting another tattoo soon... on either my inner wrist or my right ankle... it's going to be a lilly, with the name lilly underneath it... it's my neice...

:beerme

[gothic_fairy]

I have a tattoo! I've been wanting one for ages, but didn't actually know what to get, but last week I designed one myself...it's 2 hearts linked together, and its just a black outline. I had it done on my ankle (it hurt like hell but at least I didn't scream like the chav girl that went in before me!) and it looks so cool!
I had pictures taken but it was a disposable camera so they didn't come out too well...so i'll post some as soon as I get decent pictures.

[marilynMfollow]

i dont hvae any real tats but i carved a broken heart and broken into my leg wiht a kniife and ink.....yea..........lol

[Kute Kitty]

MY NEW TATTOO!!! (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v317/cazrabit/Tattoo005.jpg)

Oh tattoo how I love you...

[Anagaharad]

Woah! when did you get that?

(looks awesome by the way)

[gothic_fairy]

Wow Caz that looks cooler than I ever could have imagined it to be, it's so weird seeing my design on your back!

IT LOOKS AMAZING!!!!

[Kute Kitty]

Woah! when did you get that?

(looks awesome by the way)
Saturday, so it's still a little sore but I LOVES IT!!!

Ooh and I'm finally getting around to writing letters this week so check your mail box!

[Dark Faire]

i love that.... it is definitely excellent...

gothic fairy... kudos for the design....

:beerme

[Magus]

I've made tattoo by myself in to the shoulder. Didn't hurt much but it wasn't easy. It didn't cost much 'cause all I needed I could buy them from local foodstore (except the ink).

[Magus]

Actually it looks quite good.

[GreyWanderer]

Im curious to see the result, and what exactly was your method for doing such. For example, what did you appply the ink under the skin with, ect. I wasn't aware that you could buy such equipment from a local foodstore? Share.

-Grey

[Rose]

Caz, that looks amazing.

Well, it's 1 month and 1 day til I can get mine, and I am STILL awaiting my design *grumbles* but I'll start nagging at my mate to get it done soon...

Still plans for the lower-back one.

[Magus]

I used needles, very thin ones, used to put butterflies on display. I don't have a pic right now but I'll try to arrange one.

[Dark Faire]

a picture would be nice.. i am also curious as to the outcome of a homemade tattoo...

:beerme

[Loosifah]

http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a198/Loosifah/nightmare.jpg
Here is an example of a 'home' tattoo. We used a home made tattoo gun: motor courtesy of a Playstation controller, one fine line felt tip pen (for the barrel and nib), three rubber bands, one spoon handle, 1 paperclip, some electrical wire, the insides of a normal ink pen, one Playstation power plug, one sharpened wire brush bristle (for the needle) (very carefully sharpened. You don't want burrs (they literally tear the skin to shreds), or flat spots). Ink used was leather dye. We had Magic Black, but we spilt it. It took my mate six hours to put this on me, all in one sitting.

The moral of the story? Don't get drunk, and then MacGyver-like inventive, with artists.

[666 rock goth]

u have got 2 send those pics in of u dragon tatoo u are awsome man

[Dark Faire]

that is pretty good my friend.... very good actually for being a home made one...

:beerme

[TheFakeBarbie]

I actually got my first tattoo today. It's on my upper back, towards my neck. It's the japanese symbol for marijuana/"big hemp".

I'll post pictures once it heals.

[Rose]

Matt is gonna draw mine! Yay!

Hey Sam, sounds cool, although I wouldn't have that myself, lol.

[phyloxera]

I have a tattoo as well,but I draw my own and the guy just copy mine....I saw LOTS OF very nice tattoos but I thought that I'm gonna have it for all my life,and I want it unique,so I draw my own and I'm very happy about it 'cause it's special :) it's simply an eagle,but in tear drops....

[fiannasidhe]

Hi All,

The image isn't great - but here is my tattoo - located on my back left shoulder.

http://www.ryann.ca/images/knot-tattoo.jpg

[Ellen]

sian one. I can't wait to see yours. Sorry about sleep deprivation. Hope you heal soon.

[Dark Faire]

i got a new one on my lower back... it's a line from phantom of the opera's music of the night..... let your mind start a journey to a strange new world...

it's pretty cool...

:beerme

[TheFakeBarbie]

Now, keep in mind, this is 5 minutes after I got it done. All of the red on here is blood, the tattoo is all green.

[lotte13]

Mine's a smiley face thats spitting into my bum crack (mind you craig only mentioned this halfway thru my tatt), my bf drew it, it's a variation of his signature smiley, i'll post when i have pics

[Carly]

I'm suppose to be getting a rainbow butterfly on my chest...
Dont know when but my mom offered to take me.

[Dark Faire]

nice fake barbie... nice

[The_Dark_Poet]

Heh...sorry didn't know the size...

[Makyura]

Sweet wings!!! I wanted realistic faeries wings on my back...saw a cool set done in a tat magazine..but dont have the patience or money for that..and have a ton of small ones I want done...
I have two "self done" ones...one I did myself is on the inside of my right ankle and is a rune symbol for Love..and then a friend was suppose to do a pentacle on my upper left arm..but sucked at it..it's messed...I'm hoping to get them both fixed professionally someday...
Right now I have four planned tattoos when I can..my first is going to be of the Sanrio character Cinnamoroll on my outer left ankle...then(in no order)I want an animal rights type one somewhere, a faerie flying with faerie dust on my abdomon, then I had this picture in my head for one on my lower back of my favourite animals in a U shape(three of them, I only have a rat decided right now)and the pics being wrapped in vines and such...I also ant a Japanese symbol somewhere..havent fully decided that yet...Of course I will probably want more as I go!!

(Sorry for the ramble..I tend to do that when talking about tattoos or peircings and such interests)

[Wiccanchick]

Merry Meet everyone

If, or should I say when, I get a tattoo I want to go Big. Like maybe my whole upper torso. I kindda have an idea, you guys tell me want you think. :D

A short sleeve chainlink shirt all around my body, not just the front, with a penticle in the middle of my pecs. With a cresent moon inside the penticle. :ha

Yeah, maybe that's a bit much, or sounds kindda stupid :disgust
but that what I want none the less. :D


A bit bold for your first tattoo ahh. I would suggest something smaller to start out with, maybe do a forearm piece first or something so you know what it feels like first. When you jump into something large like that all at once you may be underestimating the pain. Just make sure you can handle it first. :) You really dont want to stop in the middle of something like that.

[ButterflyDemon]

Since I was born on St. Patrick's Day I sport this nifty tattoo:

Chris... I ADORE it! Ooooh... it's so sexy! And lovely. So you. I love you even more.

[Makyura]

OOH Sweet tats guys!!! I'm still waiting to even get my first as I just dont have the cash at the moment..I REALLY want something cool, but small and simple as my first so am thinking the Japanese symbol for Dream on my upper right arm...I have a whole list of ones I want eventually, but want something easy first so it wont take as long..haha

[screaming demon]

I have 16 tats . Now i wish i didn't get some of them.

[Makyura]

My friend just got her third tat and loves it. I'm still waiting to get my first, but might be soon...got a couple different ideas...need to decide tho!! haha

[CadavRousEffigy]

Oh really? What were you thinking about? Me and my fiance are thinking about getting matching biohazard symbols somewherre for out first tattoos. I've previously designed wing tattoos for us, but they're a little intense for first-time tattoos. I estimated about 9 or more hours, possibly 4 or 5 appointments, to actually fit in all the detail in them. It's not that they have a lot of rendering, it's just that they have a lot of detail in them.... Not to mention what a pretty penny they'll cost, concidering theyre fullback designs.

[blackwitch69]

wow.. sounds very interesting.. I mean i got to experince your tattoo job with you in a way! that was so wicked because i got an idea on what it is like.. I love it already.. now i really cant wait to get one! :p.

If you look back a page or two you'll see the beginning of my wings. They will also be full detail full back pieces...

[Chelle]

Oh really? What were you thinking about? Me and my fiance are thinking about getting matching biohazard symbols somewherre for out first tattoos. I've previously designed wing tattoos for us, but they're a little intense for first-time tattoos. I estimated about 9 or more hours, possibly 4 or 5 appointments, to actually fit in all the detail in them. It's not that they have a lot of rendering, it's just that they have a lot of detail in them.... Not to mention what a pretty penny they'll cost, concidering theyre fullback designs.


That sounds gorgeous! The idea sounds awsome, expensive but they're gonna be there forever so totally worth it :) I think the detail makes the tatoo's for most people and if you designed them yourself its even mroe special for the both of you.

Are you jsut thinkign about it for the moment?

I'd really like a tatoo for my brother on my wrists along my veigna dn maybe one crossing it. I'd also love one over my ribs. I'm just not certain what i'd like on my ribs quite yet, its gotta be perfect if its staying there my life time so have to be sure.

Any one ever really regretted any tatoo work done?

[Xecuter]

Well I´ve got five! And there are going to be more... moooooore %)t

So, I for my part can´t stop anymore after I had my first one done.

The guy on my avatar is me though... so the bar-code was my first and still is my favorite...

If you wan´t pics of the other one´s, well just ask...

@The_Dark_Poet: Great subject. I´m also working on some drawings for wings on my back!

[The_Captain]

I don't have any as yet but when I'm 18 I'll get two. Algiz rune on my left shoulderblade and Tyr rune on my right shoulderblade. It's an alternative to the Fylfot I originally wanted....can't have a Fylfot as it is too associated with a certain group of Rightist twits.

[DefyingDementia]

I have only two... *pouts*

One being a Shen on my left wrist; Egyptian, essentially a circle with an under score beneath it; negative energy protection and a sigil for eternity.

The other being a sigil on my left shoulder blade. And it is more of a personal icon, but still, 2nd tat... so, I can mention it being there, even if specifics are a bit too personal;)

[galchiana]

my tat is my little avatar, a modified directional compass on my left inner wrist.

[Dismal Dollie]

My little star has not been enough, and I'm really itching to get another one. However, I do still live at home half the year and respect my mother enough not to get another one while I'm still living with her because she does not like them very much. She thinks they are "risky," but I think this is mostly her trying to figure up a sound, unbiased objection to mask her personal displeasure with tattoos.

I figure that I will be in school for atleast another four or five years so I will have time to decide and probably draw out some things for myself, and since I'm intending to be in the medical field (a RN, a PA, or a doctor--how does one decide?), I would love to have a variation of the Staff of Asclepius. I find it entirely approperiate.

[DefyingDementia]

It's a decent take on it, to respect your mother in her home. Very noble!

Plenty of time for tattoos! No worries;)

I want the needle damn it! I need the needle! More ink! UGH! PURRR! *chuckles*

[mortisia]

i've edited my 4 tatoos?where did they go?

[suicidal-maiden]

well my tattoo took me 16 hours divided in 2 days to be done.. its a fairy sitting on a moon with curls and stuff .. :beerme

[Vampiresheart]

I have nine tattoos two on both wrists. One on the back of my neck two on my shoulders, and L O V E on four fingers. I am about to get my name on the side of my lip, and after that I am thinking about getting the symbols of the sex slave on the neck and lower on my wrists. The ones I have now the love and then the wrists have two Chinese symbols on both wrists which they all mean Angel, Cursed, Demented, and finally Rage. On the back of my neck it has Rest in Peace Mother and Father. The ones on my shoulders Are An Angel and a devil to represent well...the angel and the devil ohm....that should cover it...

[charli d]

i currently have 3 tats the one mentioned above (sun/moon with waves coming away from it) a pink butterfly i got when i was engaged to carlos and a pentical coin on my ankle

[Evofragment]

I want a facial tattoo like the girl in my sig. I think it would be hard to get a job with that though :(.

[flutterbye_girl]

At the moment I only have the one, its a pentacle in between my Shoulder blades (my mother was very happy with me for getting that one done :p )

As for the rest of my body, I've been planning with my land lord's nephew (tattooist for almost 10 years) to get a pool cue running down each side of my body, starting just below my armpit then finishing just above my ankle. I'm also starting to save to save for my back piece, a phoenix curled on an eight ball with its wings stretching up my back then dissolving into flames.

On my left fore arm, I'm getting what's called a "waiters friend" and a "bar blade", this is for two reasons. the first of which, I've been in the hospitality industry since I was 13, and can work in any sort of cafe', restaurant and any bar. The other is that I love knowing that I can walk into any place and know that I am very good at what I do.

On my right fore arm, I'm going to get a band of lace that wraps around and consist's of 6-7 layers, the lace itself was made by my great great grandmother. No other reason than that I think it's pretty and I don't want to be lopsided.

[tatteredwings]

I want a couple of tattoos. Don't know where of what though :P My issue is my nana though, 'cos she's a jehovahs witness and doesn't think they're right and I know it would hurt her if I got one, even though I'm not a j/w myself. My mum has one and has to hide it from her *sigh* But I so want one.

[Mademoiselle]

I've been planning a lot of tattoos, and more piercings.

I'm a fan of symmetry, so if I get something on one side of my body, it won't feel right unless I get something on the other side... Eh. And some of the tattoos I want are cliche (like angel wings on my shoulder blades), but a lot of them are less common.

For example, I want to get a set of "f-hole" tattoos (ever seen a violin, or a cello? The holes on the body are sometimes called "f" holes) on the insides of my wrists. I'd like a star on my sternum, a cross on my left ankle and a eighth note on my right... a pair of sparrows on my lower back and a tribal on my tail bone. Somewhere (I don't know where yet) I want a tattoo of a compass rose.

As for piercings, I have two in each earlobe and I have one in my upper left cartilage. I want another pair in my earlobes, an industrial through my right cartilage, an eyebrow, a nose ring, and either a tongue or a labret... I also want to get a navel. My friend Amanda still maintains that if she can ever get me drunk enough, she's going to take me to get my nipples pierced. :p

Tattered, if you think it's going o hurt your Nana, you could always do what your mom does, and put it in a place that's easy to hide (also a good idea if you want to get a job where tattoos are frowned upon... the easier it is to hide, the more job opportunities you have). If you want to get the tattoo somewhere else on your body, and find yourself trying to explain to your Nana, tell her that you're still the same person and you still love her, and yadda. Every time I get a new body mod my grandpa absolutely explodes. Eventually he calms down, but he's starting to just learn to overlook them. :]

[new_death_arise]

I actually want a few too.

I am studying tattoos and currently working on another portfolio of art to show some shops. I am trying to become a tattoo artist.

lets see. I want the wiccan symbol of the goddess between my shoulder blades just below my neck, I want a yellow rose on one shoulder blade and an easter lily on the other. The two grandmother's I had loved those flowers. And I want a boy angel bound in chains somewhere.. My best friend died from cancer in 03 so it would mean a lot to have him as an angel tattooed on my back. I want a dragonfly on my left hand where my pointer finger knuckle is. and I wanted a couple feathers on my arm.

haha, and a few piercings.

[The_Dark_Poet]

If I ever get around to having money again I'll get the rest of mine...or even get my back piece finished.

[bracken]

I think tattoos are less regrettable if it means something important... I know (and have seen) some people who want to get tats that just look like little stickers which eventually will morph into a muddled blob on their old and wrinkly skin. it's a sad thing.

I have a wide chestpiece of a skull with a rose on either side, and some ribbons for good measure ;) (I wanted spider webs too, but we didn't get that far). On the skull it says "war casualty". The "war" is cracked into the skull because I've been fighting for a particular cause my whole life; "casualty" is in calligraphy under it, matching the beauty of the roses, because on an epiphany I gave up on the uselessness of fighting and decided to "die" to that path of life and find my own. And I'm still wheighing career options- tattoo artist or other graphic design artistry XD.

[Goregasmik]

Currently I only have one tattoo.
I'm such a Kingdom Hearts nerd I got the Nobody symbol on my chest.

I enjoy piercings more.
I've had snakebites, a bridge and my ears.

[durgarox]

Full Scottish regalia, or it'll be William Wallace's arse for sure!

[MarieLee]

I've got one tattoo in my neck, but I'm going to get lots of other tattoos too. I always draw the tattoo artwork myself, and the tattoo genres I love the most and that I'm going to have is new school tattoos in colour and colour portraits. I'm also dreaming of one day getting tattooed by Mike DeMasi or Mike DeVries.

[vinial]

[sadsuzie]
