Hah!

My wife was 35 before she got her first tattoo. She just mentioned the other day about getting another one.

She gave me some sob story about liking the way my arm looks when it's tan when I mentioned a sleeve for myself.

I will have to see if I have some photos laying around, I have a Japanese Happi suit depicting the warrior-priest Benkei, whose boyhood nickname was Oniwakamaru fighting a giant carp (koi). Needless to say it took hundred of hours to complete.

This is a tattoo I have been thinking about, finally took the time to start a sketch.
I need to redraw it better, this is just a rough draft. Any opinions?

It is my english bulldogs face.

i have a dragon on my left shoulder blade and a frog and a butterfly. if you never had one and you are thinking of getting one, it is addicting..i thought i was just going to get the dragon..but later came the frog and the butterfly.. and pick ones that mean something important to you or something you won't get bored or hate later..

The latest work on my back piece. The last thing will be to add the scales to the dragon. Shaping up nicely.

I have actually found the guy who did the original piece from about 20 years ago, I'm gonna make an appointment and have him re-do it for nostalgia!

This looks good Shane but I would be able to appreciate more if I'll see the colored presentation. I'll wait for your next pose.

So, you're into hardcore I can see... COC and DRI are logos I have not seen in years! :-)

I was expecting to see a tattoo if "the bars", lol!
[Reply]

Ah some hardcore talk, this I like

I think you NEED to get that Mr.T stainglass image! Love it!


I am no where near getting this done, while I do draw alot I don't typically work with color. I would most likely get it black with a ton of shading to make it look old.

Oh yes indeed, got that D.R.I. for my 40th. Still waiting on the Black Flag & DK for that matter, they are on the list, but something else always comes up.

:-):-)

Thanks, that's an idea....but I would have to have Mr. T throwning the horns lol :-)

Even better:-)
