Thanks for the heads up! I love his Devil Girls - Very cool work. I'll definitely have a lot to look through here.

Very good call. I've been looking through tons of tattoos and they're just "not right" (if that makes sense) - I'll go through more source material. Plus, I don't mind an excuse to pick up more art books. Thanks for the links!!!

I love Elvgren's classic pin ups - That was our 2011 kitchen calendar and I'm currently looking for a 2012.

There's also Kirsten Easthope, who does modern pin ups - She does these hot "Crucichicks" that I'd love to get my hands on.

Thanks so much for the links! I know what I'll be doing today... ;)

Looks awesome Chrono! Very cool.

Nice work..

Thanks! I'm really happy with them... I love old school swallow tattoos and their symbolism; been wanting them for a while. The artist I work with is great; I originally wanted just one on my right shoulder, but he helped me with the positioning so that I could get one on the left shoulder too "overlapping" my other tat. I'm so happy that I went with both. I'm in love!

Beautiful work!

Yeah you were wise to go with both...

Nothing on my back yet, just this on my left shoulder:

Because of its placement on the front of my left shoulder, I didn't think that I could fit in two swallows without pushing them closer to the center of my chest... And while I liked them closer to below the collarbone, I didn't want them visible when I wore busty shirts to work... ;) It was really cool that the tattooist helped me with the placement so that I could fit both.

Any new tats planned for you guys?

HOWEVER, I have yet to get a tattoo - Still in the stages of deciding what I want (currently considering a bunny silhouette on my left shoulder blade).

How 'bout you guys? I want to see! Let this be THE OFFICIAL HDC TATTOO THREAD.

What's your tat? Where did you get it? Is there a story behind it? Do you regret it? Plan on getting more?

Post 'em if you got 'em! :D

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.
