Show me your TATs

[ChronoGrl]

Thanks for the link :) I will add pics of my tatts, I got them all done by a shit tattooist coz I'm stupid like that. I agree with you in the first statement.

Very cool - I did notice in one of the pics you posted that you have an anchor on your thigh... I LOVE nautical tattoos and, honestly, I think that thigh tattoos are sexy (if I ever lose weight I'd love to get a huge pin-up girl on my right thigh). :D

This is one of my current ideas for my next tat, on my bicep (really want to finish my quarter-sleeve but wanted to deviate from the roses):

My first tattoo, because I'm retro like that, got it for no reason what so ever, yes I regret it :/

http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/gg588/NatCP1994/DSC_0007-1.jpg

I got this to cover a scar I had, I don't regret it because it's nothing major.

http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/gg588/NatCP1994/DSC_0007.jpg

This is my sons name and birth date, don't regret it one bit, but would have prefered a better tattooist...

Gonna have to do another post :/

For my dad, reminds me of our first Holiday just us, to The Gambia. It's a Gambian quote. I don't regret it again just wished it was done better.

For my mum and dad, Bob Marley quote because me and dad love him and musical note because my mum is very musical and got me into singing etc. Same as before don't regret it just wish it was done better.

http://i1245.photobucket.com/albums/gg588/NatCP1994/IMAG0336-1.jpg

My most recent and favourite, I know it's not original but it means a lot to me because I've been through a lot in life and I'm not fucked up yet XD .

I still want more and will get more, I have got a mess on my neck that I'm not willing to show and I'm getting covered soon. Questions?? Haha, I've done an essay :)

No offense but that is shitty line work. I would not go back to that artist again..

I don't take offense because it's exactly how the picture I took in was, it's meant to look like that.

[Nat94]

Sure you don't wanna try offend me with any comments?? Haha.. Thanks

[Nat94]

Googled him, I have no idea how :/ but he was born in the same place as me, he's obviously pretty awesome :D

[Ferox13]

I don't take offense because it's exactly how the picture I took in was, it's meant to look like that.

Not what I mean - The lines done with the liner are inconsistency in width. They are also really shakey. I don't think any tattooist would do that on purpose.

Just my opinion and what would I know.

Personally, I wouldn't let that guy near me.

[Ferox13]

A friend of mine wants a website so I think I will trade her for some new ink. I have an idea for my forearm :-)

Guy I work with this one (pretty amazing work):

Nah, i'm not like that. Probably because i actually wasn't hazed when i started here like so many others are.

I'm sayin with those tats you MUST be gay.






Of course... i was joking.

[Ferox13]

Oh ok..that tat isn't on me. Just done by someone i know.

[Nat94]

I will find the film and watch it. Ahh ok :)

[Angra]

and how do I remind you of him??

Seriously? You don't see it??

Watch the damn movie. :D

[Angra]

Oh ok..that tat isn't on me. Just done by someone i know.

I thought you wanted one just like it.

Never mind. Moving on.

[The Villain]

I will find the film and watch it. Ahh ok :)

It's really good. I think you'll like it.

[Fearonsarms]

It's really good. I think you'll like it.

I agree great film hope she watches it and loves it as much as we do :)

[Elvis_Christ]

Guy I work with this one (pretty amazing work):


That's some nice work there. I like the Giger looking tentacles down the bottom.

[Nat94]

It's really good. I think you'll like it.
Got hold of it I will watch that after Grave Encounters tonight, that's if I can put my book down

[Nat94]

Seriously? You don't see it??

Watch the damn movie. :D

He got tatts to remind him of things..because he lost his memory, so far not seeing me from the storyline but I'm gonna try and watch it tonight

[Angra]

Yes, he uses his body like he would use a notebook or a diary.

Just like you do. ;)

[Nat94]

Yes, he uses his body like he would use a notebook or a diary.

Just like you do. ;)

I guess I do, my tattoos are personal about my family and life, but I am planning a couple that don't really mean much

[hammerfan]

Why would you put something permanent on your body that "doesn't really mean much"?!

[Elvis_Christ]

Why would you put something permanent on your body that "doesn't really mean much"?!

Because it looks cool. There's a few things I want to get that I just basically want because I think the picture is killer. Everyone seems to get on this buzz like every tattoo has to be some deep and meaningful but I don't know I'm not to worried to be honest.

Well, no, I'm not saying it HAS to mean something. That's just my own personal opinion. I have 3 tats. The only reason I don't have more is that I can never make up my mind what to get. For me, they have to mean something.

[Elvis_Christ]

For me, they have to mean something.

That's cool what's the meaning behind the ones you've got? (If you don't mind me asking of course :) )

[hammerfan]

That's cool what's the meaning behind the ones you've got? (If you don't mind me asking of course :) )

Two of them are cats/cat paw prints, and the third is from when I was in Air Force Technical School, two girls that I went through basic training and tech school with got the same tat in the same spot.

[Angra]

Alrighty then... that's all the information we need.

We can draw our own conclusions from here.

It's disgusting but it's your ass, not mine. Your ass, your choice.

Because it's art, I like the design and they look cool enough said

[Anthropophagus]

These are mine.The first is of course the Grim Reaper.I have had it about 4 years now.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v321/davdandy/014.jpg


And the next tat was a re-working of one that i was not fully pleased with.Its a photo of when i had just had it done and the skin was still healing,thats why i looks shiny and the skin isnt smooth,of course it is fully healed now.I need to take some new photo`s i suppose.


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v321/davdandy/003.jpg



http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v321/davdandy/004.jpg


I have an idea for more but money constraints have made me wait longer than i wanted.

[Angra]

The grim dude is damn nice.

[Anthropophagus]

Pretty chuffed myself,thanks mate.

[Elvis_Christ]

That's some nice work Anthropophagus! Looks killer.

[wizard of gore]

those are cool tatts

to the meaningfull tatts thing,i hate meaningfull tats,i hate hearing people ramble on about there tats ,there family line and shit,coz to be honest at the end of the day i dont care.
when i eventually get a tatt,which i probably wont coz im ugly enough as it is.it will be something completely meaningless and stupid and ill probably design/draw it myself

I have a tattoo of my daughters name on my arm which is obviously very meaningful to me but i don't go around showing it to people and talking about it. I've met some people with meaningful tattoos who just love to show them off and tell the story of their origins and blah blah blah so i get what you mean. There's this guy at work who has a tattoo for his father who passed away and he showed it to me and started talking to me about his dad and i was just thinking "That's cool and all but i didn't fucking ask you."

So yeah it can get annoying but not everyone's like that and i know people who do that just with random tattoos too.

I work in a church school as a special needs teaching assistant so have to cover Mine up .Its just something I do ,I dont however feel I have to justify them .How is having your childrens names any different to having a massive fOok off dragon if in some way it has had the significance for you to part with a substantial amount of your dosh?

[newb]

nice tats Anthropophagus and Dara.

must have cost a few bucks

[Anthropophagus]

I had my Reaper as a tribute to my love of horror,is you want to call it a tribute.But what the heck,it is my homage to the one industry i have loved all my life.
On my other arm i had a very old panther and snake tat,but it looked its age so i added two skulls on either side,i also had them re-done as i didnt like the way they originally turned out.
Higher up my arm i have a few small bats then i have my two girls names written in a red blood spooky style.
You could say i have one skull for each girl but that was just pure coincidence.

I need more but money is tight and so will have to wait till funds become more readily available.

I would like to have the original Universal monsters on my back,but that wont be cheap.And as you can see from my avatar i love Phantasm,and would love to have the sphere some where on my person.Maybe on my chest over my heart.Maybe.

[Dara]

I want Dark Phoenix from the x men on my lower leg but I have a Lenore tat there so I may just find a space elsewhere and do my full leg in Lenore style tatshttp://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x411/stingle8/08102011789.jpg
I also have these monitors on my back as I love lizards,I own a beardy a leopard gecko amongst others http://i1180.photobucket.com/albums/x411/stingle8/n1068097741_68279_295.jpg

Man I love sleeves - Think they're so hot and want more ink on my arm... did you get the sleeve done all at once? Or little by little... Part of me is regretting the quarter sleep just because I'm trying to figure out the best way to extend it with other images/patterns, you know? I don't want a whole lot of white space but I definitely want different images (different than my blue roses).

Love the Japanese style - I love water and coy/carps... Definitely something I've considered quite a few times.

That's where I am right now - I really want to "finish" my quarter sleeve so that it wraps all the way around (I'm thinking adding an anchor and old school pin up on my bicep), but I know it'll be $$$ and I'm trying to save up for my wedding (but at the same time I want more ink for the wedding pics, you know?).

[wizard of gore]

i need a tatt hit maan.i dont think i should get a tatt i i have a very addictive personality..id probably end up like that checkerd guy and broke

[Dara]

anyone got scarring done here? looks like shitloads of painmy friend has got a studio and atch specialises in it.Its the after care that makes me wince..scrubbing over and over to get a good scar..yoikes!I think it looks a bit odd but each to their own.

[Anthropophagus]

I dont like scarring at all or branding.Call me simple but good old tats will do just fine for me.

[Dara]

I like scars to be real and have a story behind them so you can recreate the scene from Jaws with your friends!

[wizard of gore]

yeah i have a scar next to my eye where i got a bottle to the face,i get to tell a story every time someone asks....COOL AYE!!

[wizard of gore]

Its actually 'kathy bunny' - its the only colour ink I have.

[nightmare_of _death]

i know i havent' been on here in forever, but i'd thought i'd come back, and hope to stay, even though some of you see me on fb. hehehe. well anyways i got a tattoo, and i'll tell you now i'll be getting more! https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/395228_10151007859707443_1349415824_n.jpg

it's a tree that is half dead and in winter phase and half spring and alive. i wanted this as knowing and a reminder that things will always change for the better and that life is new. . i really love it. ! on its on the inner side of my right ankle. it didnt hurt as much as people said it would. but i do have a high pain tolerance

[hammerfan]

Very cool!

[The Villain]

Nice to see you in the forum Alex.

[nightmare_of _death]

thank you of you. i hope to be on more again. :D

[Ferox13]

I am considering getting a new one in the next month or so. I just started training again so I am torn between that and new ink.

I want to get to parallel bands around my right forearm. Its a simple looking tattoo but a bitch for the artist to get right.

[ChronoGrl]

^^ Any significance to the bars?

Just made an appointment to finish my left half sleeve with a peacock; unfortunately they're booked up to January and I want my tat noooooooooow.

No not this time.

That is a short waiting list, around my place,the good ones are fully booked up for 18 months and more.

Redemption Tattoo in Cambridge: http://www.redemptiontattoo.com

They've gotten their fair share of positive local press so I think that's why they're so popular. Plus I'm seeing Erick who's the shop owner (and I think typically gets most of the requests) and I think he may be cutting down on his hours.

[Ferox13]

Erics stuff is really nice. I figured he was your artist before reading if further down the post.

[horrorobsessed]

This was my second tattoo. This was taken back in May the night it was done. It's the borg insignia from Star Trek. I have another tattoo on the base of my neck, but I don't have any recent or good pictures of it.

http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb37/MHDragon1248/borgtat.jpg

[horrorobsessed]

that's one scary foot

I hope my foot is scary because of the tattoo and not the fact that it's an awkward picture...

[ChronoGrl]

Erics stuff is really nice. I figured he was your artist before reading if further down the post.

Yeah, I love his work. And he's great to work with, has a lot of pride in what he does and has a clear aesthetic. Plus his style is very old-school, which I love.

[Ferox13]

Not on me (obviously) but done by a guy I work with. I thought Chrono might appreciate, though the feline might be a bit hairsuite for her tastes:

The horns are probably the best detail in the whole thing but, as luck would have it, they're in a spot only I get to see. Here's the portrait with Cthulhu's above and his arm HP's shoulder.

I plan to eventually carry on the sleeve to my forearm with The Outsider on the inside and Dagon on the front.

Pic looks pretty grainy. Trust me it looks better in real life!!!

[ChronoGrl]

That's pretty sick, Tony. Awesome ink.

[Ferox13]

Cool stuff. I always wanted a Lovecraft related tattoo but it wouldn't really fit with the rest of my stuff. Its a pity as I know an amazing artist who is a huge Lovecraft fan..

[FreddyMyers]

Not on me (obviously) but done by a guy I work with. I thought Chrono might appreciate, though the feline might be a bit hairsuite for her tastes:

Looks like Ridley.....

[swiss tony]

haha, at first i thought he has a weird-looking leg.
...now i see that he has a weird-looking arm

Since when does having sweet guns get interpreted as 'weird'? I suggest you apologise to Mr Smith or he and his friend Mr Wesson are gonna get mad:mad:

I have more but they're not big. I apologize if my pictures are huge the photo bucket app won't let me make them smaller

[swiss tony]

The colour in the matching birds on your back is good. It's hard to beat old skool tats on a girl. Is that sexist?:)

[natthezombabeee]

that picture is when I first got them so it was fresh as can be. they're faded a bit now they need some ink. and idk lol I love old school sailor tattoos.

My hairdresser has a sailor sleeve on her left arm with the anchors, mermaids, lighthouse, stars etc and it looks awesome. I think that's the sign of a good old skool artist, if the colours stay bright and the lines strong.

Hey! Is your avatar by Screaming Demons? I'm pretty sure it is.

If so, I got one of his pin ups tattooed on my back. I'll post in a bit.

I love his work. I've saved his Lux Interior portrait for future tat consideration.

[ChronoGrl]

Wow... She's simply stunning. Incredible talent.

Is she based on a character or his own design?

Pan looks gorgeous too.

[hammerfan]

Beautiful tattoos!

[ChronoGrl]

I have the first of two appointments this weekend to finish off my left 1/2 sleeve. I'm excited but nervous as the majority is on the inside of my arm, which I think will be pretty painful. :-/

[hammerfan]

I'm contemplating getting another tattoo this year. Just can't decide on a design, have a few in mind.

[Ferox13]

Hello...not sure if this link will work, but it contains photos of all my tats (on my FB page).
I've got about 13. Looking for another...a human fly in 3D color. A homage to Vincent Price and The Cramps. I'm trying to find an artist in the midwest who likes to do horror color. Any suggestions, let me know!

[Ferox13]

Some nice work there - not sure how I'd feel about getting a loser like Charles Manson's image tattooed on me though.

I have to ask... What made you wake up one day and decide that you wanted Charles Manson and Ed Gein permanently on your body?

[Elvis_Christ]

That Manson tattoo is fucking awesome! Great idea just using the eyes it looks really effective.

Not a kids movie, it was Georges Méliès's silent film a Trip to the Moon.

[Shemonsterdevil]

what they said, its a promotional poster for a french film called a voyage to the moon. which was made by melies, a real person and a central character in the children's movie/ book hugo

[swiss tony]

Yeah, I like the originality. I've never seen that image as a tat before. How much did it cost, if you don't mind me asking?

cost about 400, sorry i get distracted.. 3 weeks later.

[ChronoGrl]

Not a great pic, but here's my pretty peacock colored in (looks even better now - this one took a long time to heal):

[Anthropophagus]

Chronogirl,i bet that stung a little did`nt it.The under arm is quite a sensitive area.

I want the Universal monsters on my back as my next tat but as with a lot of people the money is the problem,and to get it done right it wont be cheap.Ah well,patience is a virtue.

[JessieC]

I want a tat, but scared I may regret it later on :(

Has anyone every had tattoo removal? Is it effective? and is it painful?

[Ferox13]

Has anyone every had tattoo removal? Is it effective? and is it painful?

I know some one who does it. It pretty effective but works on some some colours better than others. From everyone I spoke to says it hurts like hell.

[Shemonsterdevil]

Everyone i know says removal is more painful than the tattooing

[Geek]

Ive got a kickass tattoo idea but i find piercings so much more safe, i can take those off whenever i want! The other thing is i want it down one side of my ribs which means if ever i have kids its going to stretch and warp

[ChronoGrl]

If you keep worrying about it, then you'll never get a tat. That was my issue for YEARS - I couldn't decide on the right one... Then finally I realized - If it's true that we're here on this earth for only one lifetime then F IT - If you want one, GO FOR IT. :D


...


Here's my latest - Got the outline and shading done on Friday - The picture really doesn't do it justice as it's hard to get the whole tat in the frame... Plus the shading looks blotchy, but that's because he shaded it knowing that he'll be adding color in a few weeks.


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v623/Chronogrl/octopus_tat_zps74f4a87e.jpg



It's my biggest single tat so far and it HURTS. ha - I feel silly complaining because, well, obviously it was my choice, but F it hurts...

[Elvis_Christ]

That looks killer Chrono!

[hammerfan]

Love it, Chrono!

[ChronoGrl]

Thanks, Guys! :D

[Ferox13]

Wow - that is so cool.

[neverending]

You're really blossoming as person, and these tattoos are a perfect symbol of your boldness.

[ChronoGrl]

Wow - that is so cool.

Thanks! What's up next planned for you?

Thanks, NE - I really appreciate these words - I'm actually a little nervous to go into work with it, which makes me feel like a coward and hypocrite. I'm hoping that once it heals and it's not peely and icky I'll get my strength back

[Ferox13]

Thanks! What's up next planned for you?


I was going to get a square (like a comic pane) with a sort of cthulhu silhouette in it. Can't find anything close yet.

Yea I like the original Battlestar Galactica but I saw the newer version first and that's the one that's closest to my heart, when I think Starbuck I think of Katee Sackhoff but both Starbucks are equally badass :)

Finally found a picture of my wrist tattoo. I got this about 4 or 5 years ago, it is my second tattoo and I got it because I love music but I didn't want to get a band tattoo because I don't know if I'll like that band for the rest of my life or not so I just decided to find a design that represented my general love for music.

My fiancee already has a tattoo on both of his arms so he doesn't have a place to put it. :( Also he says he doesn't want us to get matching tattoos, he feels it would jinx our relationship. I agree with him because I know several people who got matching tattoos with their significant other and then ended up breaking up and now they hate their tattoo because every time they look at it they think of their ex.

hahaha - True; Apollo was kind of a tool. I remember liking Sam at first but then changed my mind... Battlestar had FANTASTIC strong female leads but I don't think the men were good enough for them... It's been a while, though. Maybe I should rewatch the series?? :D

Yea I haven't watched Battlestar in over 2 or 3 years. Now that I think about it other than Sam all of my favorite charcters were women, they were the ones getting stuff done, the men just stood around and bitched at each other or were too busy self loathing (I'm lookin at you Baltar) to be of much use.
