As already mentioned, sorry for your loss.

With the halo, this is just my opinion (not a tattoo artist’s opinion), but with everything you mentioned a banner on the bottom of the wings with those quotes and have the halo on top over the wings and you can still have your sons name in the middle.

How big do you want to…[Read more]

Hey, didn’t want you to think I was uninterested by not responding, but wow, that is just so personal, I would feel extremely uncomfortable trying to weigh in on something like that. And sympathies for your loss.

Oh, thanks, Dave. It is personal, but I really need help with this. I do think I’m going to drop the halo idea. 🙂

A common tribute piece is a crow or a raven. You should try looking into that. In celtic myth, a crow is linked to the goddess of death and helps deliver the soul safely to the afterlife. It’ll include a pair of wings like you’d like, you’ll be able to make it look as mean or as caring as you’d like, and you have the claws…[Read more]

I gotta be honest, I can get a hard on for some righteously done tribal, I mean, art is art, and good art is good regardless of the style, but if you are looking at some typical flash tribal or some high school art class shit, then it is just that, shit.

Hi. Can you upload some pics? My tattoo is black/grey, but I really don’t have any good pics to show how it faded after healing. A lot of my pictures were actually taken on video. I have some cell phone shots, which aren’t good and a couple half-way decent photos, but nothing that great. Mine was a bit dark at first, but I never thought it was…[Read more]

Personally, not a big fan of tribal, but it is a personal decision and you should do what you want no matter what anyone else says. Sometimes they look like they are just “cookie cutter” designs, so to speak. Not too much individuality, really. Seems people get them just to get a tattoo with no real thought put into it. I think a tattoo…[Read more]

Hello and welcome! This is a great forum and you will meet a lot of nice people with lots to say! 🙂 What tattoo do you have that you would like removed and why? I’m curious. I don’t run across too many people who regret their tattoos. Was it just bad artwork or what?

Welcome to the forum, nice tribute to your dad!

Hi and welcome to the forum! Can’t help you with the recommendation, but you are right, this is a great forum!

Well, this doesn’t seem to be a popular idea, but I feel sorry for you being all alone. Here’s a pic of me with my husband. This was taken February 2011.

I personally like the studs. I think your BF will get over it if you go for it. It’s only a ring!

Hey and welcome to the forum.

Hey Paula, welcome to the forum. Very active site. You’ll love it! 🙂

Holy heaven! I love the Back To The Future tattoo! Very, very nice! Oh, and welcome to the forum!:)

Thanks guys! Msmercury, still waiting to see Freddy…

OMG, I have messed up more attempts of my dear Freddie these past days! LOL. I have a half-way, and I do mean half-way decent sketch I started and never finished, perhaps I’ll consider posting. 🙂

That is awesome! Great artwork!
