I’ve seen a few awesome Dimebag memorial tattoos, one was a whole backpiece with Dime as a zombie, clutching his Dean. Maybe it’s on google images somewhere?

Welcome.
I love wolf tattoos myself, just makes me think ‘Of Wolf And Man’ by Metallica.

All i can think of is that episode of south park where Cartman jacks off the dog “red rocket red rocket”

That’s exactly what I’m thinking 🙂

The chest feels the same all over, not worse over the sternum in my opinion. There was one spot close to my collarbone though that I couldn’t feel a thing, it didn’t last long though 🙂
Having said that, I don’t have a pair of boobs either, so I don’t know what the pain factor is on those.

Cool!

Have you checked out New York Adorned yet?

or Red Rocket (in midtown)

or Paul Booths last Rites?

What a name for a tattoo shop, I hope I’m not the only one who gets this!

Kids and family are something different, you’ll always have that blood tie.
Having said that, I come from a family of 5 kids ( I’m the only son) and one of my sisters wants to get all the kids names but my own :rolleyes:

Hey man, sorry to here about the recent losses. Yeah, work’s a bitch, I’d love to work with some really chilled out, down to earth people and maybe have a happy, friendly boss but they just don’t seem to exist in the workplace.
Looking forward to seeing more on the backpiece, it’s a work of art.

I’m with the others here – looks a lot better. I also think you should join them up, just tell the mrs that the artist screwed up and you didn’t have a choice, you had to join them up 🙂

I’ve never been harassed for mine.
Quite the opposite, I get a lot of compliments, and the women find them attractive too 😉

Also backpieces are seriously expensive mine is costing close on $4k

Damn straight, I had a quick count and I’ve spent close to $1500 on tattoos already, nearly $2k by next friday. By the time my arm’s finished, it will probably have cost over 2 grand just for that.

I wouldn’t get a girlfriend’s name on me. I’m not particularly good in relationships like that. I’d much rather have my best mate’s name than a lover 🙂

My chest didn’t hurt that much, definitely bearable. Maybe your artist was being a bit heavy?

Oh no no no, I reckon it looks fine, just not too keen on getting lover’s names in general. I’ve only ever met one guy who had his wife’s name on him and they haven’t split. Probably cos they’re in their 60’s, work together and live together haha.

How about a blue sky themed background, won’t distract from the lollies and would look nice and bright. Add some clouds and bright yellow stars/sun.
If not that, then skulls and flames 😉

ps; dont fret about ribs. its just as bad as any other spot ive had done. reading all the bad hype towards it just freaked me out for nothing.

Thought that would be the case. It’s a nice clean piece, happy birthday 🙂 (if it’s today)

Metal – Metallica, Lamb of God, Black Label Society (hard to pick, got so many who could fit in here)

Acoustic/pop sorta stuff – Iron & Wine, Bob Dylan, Elvis Presley

Classic Rock – The Who, Led Zeppelin, Bob Marley (ok, so he’s reggae, I couldn’t leave him off the list though!)

I haven’t done my musical tastes justice at all here.

Don’t worry about stealing ideas, I may never get around to getting it done. You could always get the Loyalty banner underneath it. I’ll have to have a think about what else you could put under the head.

i met a guy during an art show in Kansas City who had a tribal-like swirl brand that started on his shoulder and ran down to his forearm, and im talking legit here, i was about 2 inches wide at the thickest and was at least 1/3 of an inch raised off his skin. it was more of a scaring piece but he did it through…[Read more]

I was asking about the month you were born in, maybe could have had some sort of gemini symbology goin on, but wouldn’t really make sense if you weren’t born in June.

You weren’t jokin were ya? Haha, Welcome
