KBeee Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 @rozone...your hand tattoos are so beautiful it makes my heart hurt. I wish I could get the classic above-the-thumbs-these-hands-will-fly-swallows, one on each hand. But aside from entertaining the idea of pursuing certain careers, I don't feel I am tough enough to deserve them. Not yet, anyway. And I remember when Tim Hendricks did that hand ROA. It would be a great and fascinating way to sneak in an ROA (on one) and a Pharoah's horses (on the other) without losing too much prime real estate elsewhere...I love that idea as well. Sigh...

rozone Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 @rozone...your hand tattoos are so beautiful it makes my heart hurt. Thanks so much, @KBeee! I'm definitely not bummed to have to look at them every day. :) Thomas Hooper really knocked it out of the park, in my opinion, and I'm honoured to wear 'em on my paws.

Metfly Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 i got part of one hand tattooed and just did my whole other hand with a traditional rose. I'll post pics once it is healed. I work as a creative director for video game developer.

purplelace Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Love hand and neck/throat tattoos, am fascinated by them. Last time I was in getting tattooed while my tattooist was doodling on my leg we chatted. He said he can see me getting my neck/throat and hands done. He laughed at my look, he said he can tell the type. I wouldn't mind getting my hands done. Though it will be probably when I retire and only after I have full sleeves done, as love the look of hand tattoos that flow down from full sleeves. Only 20odd years away then lol Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4601-hand-tattoos/?page=4#findComment-108547 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manu Manu Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Hand tattoos are my absolute favourites to look at, but it'll be a while before i'm ready for them. Someone I used to work with got his hand tattooed (with nothing on his arms), and as soon as they were healed realised it was a stupid decision for him and started having them lasered. He got offended when I laughed at his pain :p hands tattoo without sleeve done that's quite a bad thing to do imo! Most of artists should refuse to do this #ethics bongsau and Uncle Baron 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4601-hand-tattoos/?page=4#findComment-109763 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Weder Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Thank you. I was surprised myself, they all healed well and had hardly any drop out. A couple of lines and dots fell, but we just re blasted them in and no dramas.

bongsau Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 thank you @kimkong :) I had this weird gap between my chest and stomach and then I was reminded of the image during a vinyl crate dig when the tattoo-lightbulb went off. The reference is from Bunny Wailer's Solomonic record label and I'm a pretty big reggae-head so I was pretty drawn to the imagery. A bit of a spin on the classic traditional tattoo eyes or the buddha eyes. I'm pretty happy with the outcome - different, gritty, hypnotizing and goes with the different dragons on my hands and ribs. I may go get them re-lined to pop them a bit. polliwog, kimkong and taaarro 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4601-hand-tattoos/?page=4#findComment-123228 Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyeballchambers Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 All-time favorite is on a friend of mine, mostly because of how silly it is. What do gorillas think about? Bananas, duh. By Drew Rash. Additionally, here are three I've seen on Instagram recently that I've loved. Another Tim Hendricks. Squeezing a readable ROA on there blows my mind. Grez. Does it get better than classic roses on a hand? Grime. And to totally tweak out the classic rose, a rose skull morph. That black&grey piece is gnarly Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4601-hand-tattoos/?page=4#findComment-123380 Share on other sites More sharing options...

polliwog Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I love the eye makeup! I got a tattoo from him a couple weeks ago (will post pictures when the red settles down) and love the details he adds to eyes and noses.
