Curious to see what kind of tattoos the other members have.  I currently have two, both done within the last year by the same tattoo artist.  Drawing up my next one that I plan on using as a full sleeve on my left arm.

Anyway here is what I have:


Sorry about the blood here.  Picture was taken when the tattoo was just finished.  The red areas are actually black shading that gives it a bit of depth.  And yes I realize that the numbers are backwards.  It was intentional.  A message about turning back the path of modern film to movies with deep stories and interesting characters rather than just CGI.



Once again, a photo of this tattoo when it was fresh.  Its an image I've always loved from Alan Moore/Dave Gibbon's "Watchmen".  Its an image that has always resonated with me, one of absolute pain and love.  The tattoo artist did an amazing job with this one, and only took about 30 mins!



So, what do you guys have???  Post some photos!

A bald man named Savalas visited me last night in a dream.  I think it was a Telly vision.

I'm not much for tattoos anymore, especially since seeing so many youngins' with them. But, your two are really cool, and original.

So far only one... A Tethered Griffin that my wife drawn (she did a really good job) and the Tattoo artist did an ok job putting it on my arm. I'm thinking of another tattoo (MTG related)

10,000 Volt Ghost

I have 4 shamrocks and 1 compass rose. I don't know if I can post pictures or not yet here.

I have a small butterfly above my left ankle. I'd post a photo but still haven't figured out how to post pics.

I have none, but I do like them on other people.  I used to want to get a whimsical floral design flowing down my hips (I thought it would be slimming), but as I got older, I opted for the blank-canvas look as that can be just as alluring.

When my dad was around 18, he had a crush on a girl so he got a giant tattoo with flowers and her name, BETTY, in huge letters across his stomach.  He went to her house and tore off his shirt to show her... I don't think she ever met him before.. all I know after that is that the police were called.  For years I wondered why "Belly" was misspelled.

Me neither.  I'm not a fan of tattoos OR piercings.  Even just the ears I'm not too crazy about.  Just leave the body alone, I say.  But that's just me.

Count me in as another not into tattoos OR piercings either.
My niece regrets it now that she did a tattoo above her butt several years ago when all the girls had them made.
She is getting it removed and it won't be cheap.

The Burgomaster

I have 3:

* Left arm - A woman wearing a skimpy outfit and long black gloves
* Upper back - A panther fighting a large snake
* Right thigh - A woman wearing a tight black body suit.  Her right leg is exposed and it has a colorful bird tattooed on it.  (So, it's a tattoo within a tattoo).

I was gonna get another one in Las Vegas a couple years ago (something with a creepy gambling theme, like a skeleton playing cards or rolling dice), but tattoo prices on the Vegas strip are outrageous.  I'm sure I'll get another one eventually.  There's a tattoo shop about 2 miles from my house I haven't visited yet.

 I don't have a tattoo but if I did I'd get Grandpa Simpson's Flying Hellfish tattoo.
