Tattoos...

Had a look and couldn't see a tattoo thread to allow us to share tattoo pics etc, thought I'd start one (ii maybe wrong, it might be hiding!)

What tattoos do you have? I have 7 - a cat on my stomach, stars on my wrist, a lotus flower on my wrist, a buddist symbol also on my wrist, a wolf outline on the inner elbow, a Maori hammerhead shark on my shoulder blade and a gothic Poe inspired (self designed) crows and tree siloette with creed lyrics incorporated (on my other shoulder round to the back of my neck)

Number 8 in planning.... Will try to put pictures up...

    <<I'm working on my full backpiece(about 10 hours into an approx. 30 hour piece). The banner will have a quote from The Raven and all the flowers will be colored in.

    I also have a brown wrist cuff...it's a pattern made up of a small design I had on my wedding invitations. It wraps all the way around.

    I have words that are backwards on my collarbone so I can see them in the mirror. They are brown also.

    I have an arabic word in brown on my shoulder.

    I have a clover on my tummy(HATE it)

    After my backpiece, I have a 1/4 sleeve drawn out with a skull and detailing.

    I have a panda on my left shoulder blade and "L'Amour" in script on my inner right wrist. I have number 3 planned, a bird, but not sure if I want to get it on the side of my foot or wait until I lose more weight and get it on my collarbone.

    WW2 Era VW Logo (Also known as "The Gear") between my shoulder blades.

    Air Cooled VW. <3
  • I have 3 dolphins on my right ankle to represent my oldest 3 sons, a libra symbol on the back of my neck, and a "tramp stamp" (lower back tatty) that has a custom celtic heart knot in the middle with a blue dolphin on one side and a purple dolphin on the other side and then a tribal dolphin on either side of those. I have more tats planned ... but I always put them off because I hate to spend money on myself. LOL! But I *HAVE* to get another one done to represent my 1 year old, and one for my stillborn I had on "leap year day" (Feb. 29).

    I have 2, a cross & a basketball. I plan on getting more an angle, devil, diamond, sapphire, pearl & crown. It sounds pretty random but they all represent something.

    Just got my first tattoo yesterday! My sons' names written on ribbon surrounded by hearts. It's on my lower calf.

    My next tattoo will somehow honor my father who we lost Jan 2000. Will be on my shoulder blade. Haven't decided on design yet tho. I do want it open enough that when mom passes I can encorporate her memory into the design.

    Wow, some gorgeous artwork here. Do you e et get any negative responses to it? I've not had anything, but I know a lot of people don't like my big raven piece. But that's not a negative I knew it'd be a love it or hate it piece!

    I have two half sleeves Asian style and a pinup on my ribs. Sounds like just a few but it's been dozens of hours of work. I love getting them and showing them off. Pics on my profile. I'm always looking for some new friends
  • Nice artwork

    Thank you. I still have too much squish on my sides (those stubborn love-handles!) to really see it well, but the pelican has probably two sessions left to finish the tail and last bit of one wing, and once that's complete I'm getting the peacock fixed and the symbols touched up. The symbols were SO gorgeous when I first got them done, but that was 5 years ago and I didn't take care of them the way I should have, so they've faded a lot.

    I get negative responses all the time. I had a lady in Walmart shake her head and say it was "ridiculous". She was severely obese so my first reaction was telling her that maybe she needed to focus on what she's doing with her own body rather than what I did with mine. It was not my proudest moment. Now, I just smile and move on.

    :0 how rude! I would never dream of telling someone that I didn't like a part of them! But then some people do judge too quickly...

    I have some writing on my inner left wrist, the insides of my feet, the outer side under the ankle bone on my right foot, the back of my neck and behind my ear tattooed. Eventually I plan on getting a half sleeve, my back and ribs done as well.

    No negative responses from people, only positive ones so far :). I tend to get more disgusts from the piercings I have. Hah!

    Here are a few of mine.

    This is a bigger one of my icon. It's a cover up and took about 7 hours
