    Check the profile pic - mine is a custom take on "Man's Ruin" - instead of alcohol, gambling, and women I have:

    1. Anime (the Scottish lass in the middle)
    2. Videogames (the PS3 controller)
    3. Games (the Munchkin dice)
    4. Highland Games (the Scottish flag, the kilt, the throwing hammer and boots, and the throwing weight)
    5. Irn Bru (the soda bottle)

    I've been throwing heavy things for a decade now, so this has "ruined" about a third of my life. :smiley:

    Had the whole thing designed by a friend of mine who does videogame artwork for various music artists and magazines.

    The funny story behind it: After getting the design, I took it to a local place that I researched online. The artist who was to do the work asked how large I wanted it, so I said from shoulder to elbow. At this time I had on an oversized Hawaiian shirt and he didn't really take a close look at my arm. So he quoted $300 for 3 hours of work.

    I came back that evening - we found out at that point the whole design took up almost a whole 8.5 x 11 sheet to make it big enough for my arm. 6 hours later, he's still working away and only the line work, the boots, and the blue of the flag is done. So he charges me half the $300 fee and says to come back in 6 weeks.

    I come back, it takes another 3 hours to finish, and he sticks to his original $300 quote! I give him a hefty tip for the good work, but talk about your discount!

    I have a wolf, I designed the tattoo myself inspired by the tv show game of thrones. A lot more work to be done, and thinking I may change the tree up in the future. That was it freshly after I had it finished. I also have a horse shoe and brand of my horse around my wrist. m48u0iijkrby.jpg
