Latest tattoo lowdown.....

I was reading through some of the older pages of this thread the other day and was startled by how many members here, who I'd assumed had been getting tattooed for a long time owing to their knowledge and the quality of their tattoos, got their first tattoos while on this forum. I was sort of surprised anew by what a cool community you all have built here.

I wish I'd spent more time here lurking and less time posting, particularly as a new member, but thanks for letting me hang around.

Husband got this part of his done yesterday. He plans to continue it down to the elbow, and maybe a little more on the back, not sure. He got the first part done in May, pics back several pages.

I don't get to go back until next month so I had to sit there and be sad.

Oh, and Josh at Big Brain in Omaha, NE is doing the work on husbands.

Went to NYC for the first time and got this from Eli Quinters.

I also got a lady head from Steve Boltz, which I am in love with, but all the pictures I tried to take were shit. Maybe I'll try again when it's healed...or maybe I'll just keep it to myself.

Love this!

Мои новые татуировки 2012-2014

Тату иннормизм (Делаю такие тату ..

I looked around many of these, and some are neat and seem to be amazingly executed. But there's something that bothers me a little - it feels like there is a theme with many of them that the tattoo owns the person rather than the other way around. Like a body is there simply for the display of the tattoo and somewhat subservient to the tattoo.

Well, maybe that's too deep. I've been away diving and probably sucked down a little too much of the wrong gas.

Got an appointment tomorrow afternoon to get my hotstuff and leg tattoos touched up by OllieXXX...and likely a spontaneous draw-on banger (not sure what but I am in the mood for a tear-out!).

well. i did not get my touchups. but i did get a new tattoo which did involve a tear-out:

My pug. Winston. Riding the red rocket. Which was really hilarious. Until I got a call 3/4 of the way through the tattoo that my mother passed away. Shout out to my pal Ollie for working like lightning to finish the tattoo before my ride showed up to go see my family. So some more to add to the arguement that a tattoo is more than just a silly picture on your skin. It's not just about "what" the tattoo is of or the "why"...but the "where" and "when" and "who" of the experience is of equal importance. A colourful timestamp for this lifetime. And now I'm left with a lot of sorrow to deal with, a good laugh and a great tattoo. Laughter is the best medicine. And my Mom really loved my idiot pug. But I think my next tattoo will be little more serious and carry a lot more weight. Peace.
