S/O: Show us your tattoos/tattoo ideas

[jordylee]

shauni27 I love that picture of S! He looks like he is so full of personality!

I don't have any, yet, but if I had to get one tomorrow, I'd put this:

on my ribs, kind of the outside/under edge of the left boob, except I'd have it changed to represent my heartbeat/condition.

I currently have a Maltese cross on my lower back and daisies on my upper back.

I have a few planned but haven’t done yet. Most are Disney oriented.

Mine aren't photographing well. One is a sun/moon/star design on my right hip, the other is a moon and stars on my right lower back.

I keep waffling on a Mdot tattoo. If I get one, it will likely just be the outline, and probably on my outer ankle.

Though I saw this one and I WANT. Not in this spot, but this tattoo. It's gorgeous.

emilyj - I always wonder how the really fine tattoos age. They are really cool!

[mrshandy]

I never thought I would get a tattoo. But I've been rethinking that in recent years. I so want something like wawa to celebrate my adult passion for fitness, running and tris. I have yet to find an image that would inspire me to do it.

20-year-old me wishes I knew the importance of lines when I got my two. They are definitely faded and not sharp anymore, which is a bummer. So if I got that one, I'd make sure the artist was aces with lines.

Hahah look in the other thread, this was the inspiration for the tattoo i just got a few days ago. But this one drives me nuts - earth shouldnt be bigger, let alone the same size, as neptune and uranus.

I love yours too.  Basically, I love the line of the planets.  I think if I did one, I'd do it on my ribcage.

Speaking of tattoos, my sister was at a local shop yesterday and sent me a text saying one of the tattoo artists said hi and we knew each other in our high school days. I couldn't place him so I looked him up on FB and saw he had thousands of followers but his page wasn't updated. I found him on IG and saw he had hundreds of thousands of followers and after some research saw that he was on one of the reality tattoo TV shows. He is a well known artist in a particular style.

Later she sent me a pic of another tattoo artist I do know and have run into in my adult life who works at the same shop and well, now I know where I'm getting my next tattoo and I really want it now.

al320 - How bad was the ribcage experience for you?

Well, its too small lines, the lower line which isnt so much over bone was fine, the upper line, which is over bone, hurt a little more but was totally manageable. I have it on my IG (since i suddenly lost my whole cloud):

Its really the side but still over ribs, if that makes sense. Anyway, it wasnt bad at all.

!! I just gasped. I love this song and I love Built to Spill. I'm smitten with this tattoo!

Aww thanks! I love them so much, this isnt my favorite song, but i do love it and the verse really gets me to me (the whole verse was too long to tattoo!).

Id really like a tattoo inspired by the lyrics to Randy Described Eternity, but i havent decided how or what style or where yet.

Are you seeing them this tour with afghan wigs? Theyre here in a couple of weeks, i never (mostly) miss them when they tour. Theyre my favorite.

Did we just become best friends??   I loooooove Randy Described Eternity.
I'm hoping to see them in Indianapolis in 2 weeks and this post just made me get serious about trying to make it work!

YAY!! That album is my fave, by far. I found online someone with a tattoo of the house on thr album cover.

[ktzmoh]

I have a tramp stamp and one on my front hip. My tramp stamp is a phoenix from a paper cut I found when I was living in China for a bit. But it has a lot of fine lines on the feathers that have not aged well through two pregnancies and neglect. I wonder if there is any way to fix it or if I should just cover it with a more elaborate back tattoo?

Either way, I really want one on my forearm or ribcage, but I've been stewing on what to get for a few years now and haven't yet settled. Definitely some bird imagery, but I havne't see anything yet that really jumped out as the right one yet. I need to ruminate a bit more.

I have 4 tattoos - daisy on my hip, my name in the shape of a butterfly on my lower back, a butterfly on my lower stomach between belly button and pubic hairline, and a rib tattoo.

I do not recommend getting a tattoo at 16 without parental permission, as it limits your choice of tattoo artist. Also do not place a tattoo on your lower stomach before you are done birthing babies. I had my butterfly redone:


This is my A Tree Grows in Brooklyn inspired tattoo. I had an artist I knew through a photography board who sells her artwork on Etsy create the piece for me and then found an amazing tattoo artist. This rib piece is by far the most painful of all of them and whoah stretch marks hurt to have tattooed. You can also see my lower back butterfly that spells my name. This was only a couple weeks after having it done so it was still healing.
