We did finally finish the bat:

I'm curious to see if there are others in here who have gotten tattoos dedicated to their favourite bands, singers, artists or just inspired by music in general? I love music, especially metal and rock. So my second tattoo was heavily inspired by the band Tool and their.. wierd artwork. It's been 7 years since I got this tattoo, but I still feel like it needs something more added to it. Just haven't gotten to it yet, I guess. The pic is from the day I got it if I recall correct. Didn't have a healed pic and couldn't be arsed to take one now, so I snagged this from my Facebook. It's not as crisp ofcourse, but it's still in pretty decent shape (thank god for SPF 50). Show me yours, there must be some in here :)

I love all of my tattoos. But I think the one by Richard Stell is extra special since he is no longer with us.

It's funny, he's running around with that fine tattoo worried about it and I know a lot of people walking around with tattoos I wouldn't put on my worst enemy, all proud about them. Seriously, how does anyone not recognize that it's really nice work?

It's great except for that one little thing, but no one will notice it. Only fooling.

Got this guy from Scott Harrison last Sunday. Aside from the dope tattoo, I also got some great stories. If you're anywhere near the PNW, you should make your way to Portland and get work from this legend before he re-retires!

@Hogrider - Many of the "brightener" product contain Vitamin C and/or some other types of mild acids (re: not retinols but salicylic acid) sold in regular "anti-aging" facial creams. The "brighteners" simply exfoliate. My concern around these product is sun exposure. Anytime you use Vit C or mild acids, the number one rule is to avoid sun exposure due to increased sun sensitivity.

How exactly does it brighten and protect tattoos? Sounds like marketing bullschitt to me. No need for special lotions and potents.
