Is the tattoo located where you got shot in 85? That would be cool!

Let us know how it comes out.

Did you loose any coloring?

No, I didn’t loose a bit of color.

I concur with buttwheat. The “dry wrap” method works best for me.

I don’t like the sun either. The flowers show some really good talent, however it is lacking in the sun.

(Some of my best accomplishments were executed in the dark)

Interesting. I hate that sun. Don’t know why, but I just don’t like it.

Are you afraid of garlic?
How about wooden stakes?

Welcome to the forum!
A picture would help.
I’ve had reactions to certain ink brands, and one time I used a numbing agent I almost went to the nearest hospital. My leg was swollen for nearly two weeks.
The Ink seemed to get real thick in my skin and only after months of “tea tree” oil and other ointments, it is now pretty normal.

You know, in memory of my dead grandma. She was only 4′ 8″ in shoes.

That remind me of “Sissy” in Betty Smith’s “A Tree Grows in Brooklyn” (Harper & Brother 1943). She had 10 “blue baby” deaths before they could afford a doctor. The 11th was…[Read more]

No, weedwhacking in bare feet and short pants. Possibly a little sunburn too.

I like the flowers, but you need something to tie them into the mix.

My wife wanted something to dress up her Scottish Thistle and this is what we got.
The thistle was existing and the Celtic dragon was added by Anthony Zamora. I was impressed by him literally joining the two together.

Only you could pull that off!

That has great possibilities!

Looks good but that foot in the third pic looks a bit infected or just nasty…i would get that checked that out my dude….

Thanks for your concern. It doesn’t really look that bad in person. A better camera would help too.

*sigh*….. 🙁

All philosophy aside that is one very well done tattoo!

I wouldn’t get one. (I accidentally wounded my son some years ago)

Arni, sorry about your chicken. Don’t be offended but I’m having a chicken pie for lunch.

15% wouldn’t cut it for me. Can you put it anywhere you want?

Wouldn’t you feel like a jerk if you had a visible “Enron” tattoo?

Don’t dwell in the past. Your mother is gone, say a prayer for her, but get a tattoo for you.

If you want a tribute to her, donate to her favorite charity in her name. (she would have liked that much more)

Do ya suppose an artist could do something like this?

Sure, a good artist could. Be prepared though if you take that image to a good artist several things may happen:
He may say that he won’t copy another artist, let alone rework their work.
He may say that he will draw something similar if that’s what you want.
He may…[Read more]

Interesting gang with a tattoo like that.
Maybe you should start one.
