Weird thing Steph, after talking with you about the snake eating its own tail yesterday. I purchased Tantric's new album today and saw this! Your tattoo! I'm guessing you'd use purple in place of the blue, but pretty cool looking none the less. I thought you might want to use it at as a template one day when you're ready for your next tattoo.
Actually, I'd just get it in black ... just the snake too All of my tattoos will be color-less and just black outlines and shading ... since I am so pale, but also colors fade and it hurts enough just getting them done the first time, i wouldn't want to get them re-done all the time. The one I have now needs a bit of a touch-up, but it's not too bad.
I liked the look of the flower in the middle. Just thought it was funny because I haven't seen the snake pic too many times before. Then today out of the blue...low and behold, the self consuming snake.:eek3:
here is the pic of my first ink :biggrin: wanted to figure out a design with it but that can wait till later when i have more expendable money so i have now officially popped my cherry :laugh:
well I have 35+ hours of tattoo work but here are some of the highlights and the ones I have pictures of.......
~sigh~ ya see his name starts with an e...erik or with a c..im not sure but thats where you get 3ric...ok heres the tricky part..my name is spelt Aric...so we went with 4ric..looks like an A.
got my tat finished today and added a new one! all the work was done by maggie at Inkaholics "Dream" Tattoo oh, and tom got his nipples pierced :yumyum:
its not really that cool, my friend passed away last year and I didnt really want to get him a cross or anything, he was wearing a monster energy hat in his coffin, and always rocked out monster shirts and stuff, so I figured it was a good idea. oh and dream, I love you.
bump as i will have a new pic up tomm night, just got my next one started tonight, still have color and a few other things on it to go back in for :biggrin:
I like the irish tattoos themes going on through here. Very nice claddagh and cross tattoo 95lwrx. I will get some pictures of mine up this week.
heres 3 of mine first on is my favorite... original german eagle crestfrom the 19th century, since i'm almost %100 german 6 hours in the chair on that one, done by my wife second is some hawaiian style tribal i got on my honeymoon in maui third are on my back... sun/star was designed by my wife, bottom symbal for karma was my wifes first tattoo ever
well i gotta look my best :biggrin: i've been thinkin bout my next tats also... looking to probably get a huge samurai on my ribs... starting below or around my belt line up almost to my pit.... then i decided on my sleave that i'm going to do... its going to be all horror movie characters including: micheal myers (greatest of all time), jason, freddy, capt. spaulding, leatherface, ash (when he turns into the undead from evil dead 2) and a few others if i can fit them... i just gotta figure out how to tie them all together
thanks, i love how it turned out. also here is a pic of the newest one, have to go back for color and more background work, but i like it already :biggrin: sorry about the not so great pic.
all my work is done by Branden Noetzel, he owns 1 life tattoo in brainerd, i love his work, he is very good! and thanks :biggrin:
that looks sweet just Black. Im not big into color tattoos though so thats just me. Looks really sweet though.
two of my four. These are right after I got them so they have vitamin a & d ointment on them and are shiny. I will have to get pics of the other two. The one says IRISH PRIDE and is an ambigram (you can flip it upside down and it says the same thing).
got some color done! prob not completely done with this one yet, im thinking of doing a bit more black/gray background work. its very bright though :laugh:
WOW! that looks great! heres the start of my chest plate, it has 2 sparrows on either side for 10,000 miles traveled and the banner in the middle says "skateboarding saved my life" which if you knew me, You'd understand. Eventualy I will have alot of old world victorian black work/shading I'll be doing. It will extend all the way over my colarbone to under my neck line and down to my sternum.
I have 5 tattoo's as of now. I have the spitfire logo on my right calf, a star on the back of both arms, my name on my left arm and then a turbo on my left upper under arm. I only have the pic of the turbo
