Been on my To-Do list for a long time considering how many designs I've drawn up for friends over the years... Thursday last week, I bit the bullet and got one done ninja.gif

Meanwhile, the wife got 3 more to bring her total up to 6...

Anyone else on here got any? or considering getting any?

Cool thread, have an extensive collection on my back and top of my arms, though a bit old school by todays standard, in my mid 40's and my first lot of tattoo's when I was 16!
Recent one is the Superman logo with my son's name written in Kryptonian which is on the inside of my forearm.

Nice work there Kimz!

The tattoos of today are a world away from even 20yrs ago - refinements in the actuators, the needles and the range of colours available now mean that you can get very sharp,clean,fine lines smile.gif
Two of my brothers are quite tattoo'd - the oldest has a large collection of birds, animals, skulls etc covering his arms and back.
The other had our family crest worked over his entire back along with anything and everything else he picked up during his time in the Royal Navy...


This is one of the wifes tattoos from last week, coloured, and with a line of UV reactive white just inside the outline of the wings thumbup1.gif
To give you an idea of scale here, the largest bee is no bigger than my thumbnail.

Anyone who gets a 3D cutaway of a VW KR 16v engine tattoo'd over their whole back is definately not all there...
