How about a traditional swallow carrying a banner?

Looks awesome dude, nice stuff 😎

A few scratchers show up every now and again, you’re the only legit apprentice I can think of at the moment. There’s a couple people on here who will be doing apprenticeships one day though.

Welcome, we don’t get many apprentices on here 🙂

Hey Alex,
We’d be glad to help with some ideas. What sort of theme have you got planned?

I like your thinking behind the tattoo man 🙂

Wait the year over 🙂
I don’t know if alcohol messes with a tongue ring, but it wouldn’t hurt to wait a few more days. Plus, if you meet a guy new years eve, your tongue will be too sore to ummm… kiss :p

Hey Tash, sorry to hear you live in England 🙁
What’s the plan for the tattoo?

Hmm toughie… depends if you signed some papers beforehand I guess. It’s not something you hear of a lot on here.
