what the fuck, can you not see that?

I'll refrain from commenting on your tattoo idea. I had wanted one for years. I couldn't ever find anything that wasn't lame or that meant something to me. I needed a symbol that represented me. I found that symbol last year by total accident while looking at art on deviantART: where ART meets application!.

Life tattoo by *ommony on deviantART

Two weeks later I had it.




I love mine. Its duality: balance of life. I will be spendign the rest of my life looking for perfect balance. The dragon is also eating his own tail to show that he is his worst and only enemy.

na, its not lettin me see em.

dam thats pretty sweet man. Love the meanin behind it.

What's a "working progress?"

I intend to get several tattoos, might get Give Blood across my shoulders on my back, its a Bane reference, and a call to give all of oneself, also, I want to get a mother orca with two "pups" following it tatt'd on my calf, to represent my mother and sister, and myself, (mom likes orcas)

and Ill be working on concepts and images for a prospective half sleeve for probably the next year.

also: nice ink Kelju, and no Sox, nobody can see them yet.

Hahahaa the cop took a picture with him, thats awesome, what state does he have tattd on him? looks like maybe Nc? i dunno, I'm not at a map. Anyhow by workin progress I dont know if its just going to say baller, or maybe have a Navy anchor,and the "great wave" behind it

now we can see it.

Always liked japanese cherry trees, considering having a stylized image of one, perhaps similar to the former image, in my half sleeve.

also, a bear fighting a shark, a la the band Bear vs. Shark, if not for the fact that the band is great, then for the fact that it would be probably one of the manliest tattoos ever.

Just a guess...he meant a work in progress? You the new IM grammar police?

As for tattoos, don't have any. Probably won't ever get one. Don't see the point really. I wouldn't give money to someone to draw on me.

Yes.

Problem?

I always liked Paddy's from D4.

Nice tat brother. I too am currently looking for a meaningful piece of art to put on myself. For a long time i was looking for a unique version of the Yin-Yang. I have it as my avatar, and love the symbol for the same reasons that you put forth. I have yet to find anything that jumps out at me, cheers to you for finding something for yourself, i'm still waiting.

My buddy has a simple tattoo across his back. In fairly plain lettering "Invictus Animus" or unconquerable soul. Thats an awesome one.

My friend has a japanese looking mape wrist that covers part of his hand, his wrist and his forearm. It looks pretty cool.

Japanese looking maple tree* its sick.
That patriots guy is nuts.

I have several, this is one of my favorites...

holy shit thats sick man. nice one =]. Love how the eyes are blanked out.

I got a new idea I might get the japanese written really small on the upper inside of my ear. its between that and my forearm.

im prolly goin to get both of them when i have the money

I almost got the phoenix one time, it was a spur of the moment thing, glad i didnt, it was gona be red and yellow.so happy i didnt get it.

i know that the phoenix one is going to be alot of money so i might not get it but i know im gettin the second one for sure

yea, since its so detailed. but dependin on the size it might not be so bad.

it would be on my upper back area

Once I'm out of basic I think I'ma get "baller" tatt'd on me in japanese. I know it sounds stupid, the idea is a working progress.

I got two more tats , one on my left leg and the other on my chest.....You should really do you home work before choosing your tat artist. If not your gonna end up doing a cover up tat like me.

oh yea i deffinately am gonna get it done by a guy named braden at eternal inks in wake forest, he's awesome at em.

The phoenix is one that has been on my mind too.....I would locate it on my back in between the two faces.

Tattoos are for cretins of society who don't want to be seen as clean and good citizens!!! Or at least thats what I heard...
