should be starting my back.....I think I've settled on the rough idea and Tattooer(s) I want to have at it.........

BTW, very impressed with some of the tattooers and ideas in this thread, thanks for sharing everyone. I look very forward to seeing the tattoos!!!

Xam, sometime next summer-ish (I'm about 10 months in to the waiting list) - Skull with crown of thorns and a snake, maybe a couple of other bits too depending on finances and what not at the time.

Hoping to get a couple of bits at Smith St. when I go to New York for a friend's 30th next August. Also hoping to get more done by Chad Koeplinger, probably when he's back in London.

Waiting for Valerie Vargas' waiting list to open up... which I guess may still probably put me in somewhere 2013.

We should review the progress on the goals we've established here!!!

[Tight-Lines]

Getting virgen de guadalupe "live vs" on right ribbs and "death vs" on left by Mr Nice Guy.

Do you live at the greatest Tiki Bar of all time?

[TrixieFaux]

I want a snake on my arm. Not a vicious one, a serene one. I want to go to Bryan Burk based on the high praise I have seen for him on here and looking at his website, but haven't contacted him yet as I will probably wait until my birthday in April.

I've just sent an email to Bailey Hunter Robinson. Hopefully October.

Does that mean you're making a trip to this side of the pond?

[jade1955]

@Reyseslv Yes I've been away from the Big Apple for far too long.

i secretly hope that this thread spirals into a competition to see who'll be the first to get tattooed in 2012.

I have an appointment booked for the 6th of Jan

For 2012 I will have my sleeve completed (hopefully 2-3 more appointments) by Shawn at Ink studios. After its completed, I think I will take a small break from getting tattooed for a few months (5 or 6) so I can save up again for what I have been planning out to have done for my legs so its just a matter of hooking up with my artist of choice and get started!

It is going to be tough to figure out which leg to start first. . .

Beats me, 13th Jan

[SF Dave]

i really want to get a Kuniyoshi image of a Suikoden warrior pinning down a wild beast, done by someone from State of Grace. trying to decide if i should get it on my arm, thigh, rib/stomach, or back.

[samsyd]

I've also got an appointment on the 6th, with Scott Sylvia

Getting a girl head/rose combo on the top of my forearm

Also heading to Chicago and New York in late Jan and early Feb so hope to get something from Mario Desa a few thngs from the dudes at Smith st

[writerAZ]

Already have my first four appointments of the year booked--two in January, two in February. More shading on the back piece. Hopefully, some color soon.

[kirkson]

planning to start on my back next fall, Tibetan style, kicking around ideas still. In my dreams, with unlimited time and money, I'd move to NYC for a while and have it done by Yoni Z at NY Adorned. Reality is that I'll have it done here in LA (which is pretty good too :)).

[InkPlease]

I hope to get my rib koi finished, then get to work on my chest, and start working it all into a traditional meets new school japanese sleeve and chest. Just can't do it all in one year, but it does look like its going to be a good year and hope everyone has a bitchin 2012, except until the Apocalypse comes :)
