Tattoos - let’s see them.

[learningtofly]

Prompted by something [mention]Kelbam[/mention] said in another thread, let’s see your inky artwork here. Mine...

 

[MarkW]

Here's mine: it's 2mm across and I got it done in 1978 when the boy sitting next to me at school stabbed me in the leg with a fountain pen.

My nerdy wrist tats! I do have two on my back, one was done in someones bedroom about 15 years ago, no pics of them on this phone but my friend said it looks lkke like seaweed (its a dragon lmao)

These two i got a few weeks ago and are from fi al fantasy 8 (jumbo cactuar) and final fantasy 9 (Artemicion, moogle)

Also special mention to the one on my right arm i have had lasered off ( i was young and foolish hahaha)

Mine is similar, caused by a splinter from a burnt piece of wood

 

[learningtofly]

I haven’t given up hope for this thread yet

[Arwen]

Mine...Complete with owie airsoft hits! Needs a bit of a touch up. I do have plans to get one, or both, of my shoulders covered in feather "armour". But it's going to be costly and I cannot decide on a style

 

 

Love the FF ones [mention]Kelbam[/mention] !

[learningtofly]

...it's going to be costly and I cannot decide on a style

 

I’d be embarrassed to tell you how much I spent on mine!

[Justarn]

Is that a star wars character boba fett top left?

My brother in law is a tattooist , booked up months in advance and tats ain’t cheap.

This isn't one of his, is it?

I've always thought about getting a tatt and I designed one the other day... Maybe soon...

Depends on the body part apparently. I fell asleep getting mine done.

It's almost as if people like different things

Always wanted to get a few tattoos (know the location and design) but never found someone that I trust enough to put artwork on my body for life!

Know too many mates that got cheap ones done when we were younger that look awful now.

Love my piercings and hope to get more.

Pictures or it didn’t happen

Hah they're not interesting!

Tongue, nose, ears a few times and belly button.

Have stretched one lobe but only to 8mm (Didn't fancy the spaghetti look.. ) and have a gauge like this in:

Want to get scaffolding at some point (bar across top of the ear) and the anti-migraine on both ears.

I have to say there's more I would like to get, but I've always been very careful that all piercings I get can be easily hidden for work I know they're not meant to (and they certainly would never say) but I wouldn't want to miss out on a job offer / promotion etc because of my style choices.

Same with tattoos, the ones I have planned are all very easily hidden.

Oh blimey I have a few! Hold on....

[elizabethf]

Tattoos: fair few, mostly on my legs. I like colour! I think my fave is either the astronaut orrr the little Kanti symbol behind my ear.

 

 

Let an apprentice loose on this one:

[Gin]

Jeez those are GORGEOUS!

Have you got stories behind them? Or just liked the designs when you met with the artist?

Also, what's the meaning being the "Ka" symbol?
