Ok mr 4 posts. Im not ready to join this forum. With the info youve given A: drug addict B: thief C: walked out on his family, i think you should re-evaluate your high regard for this person. What you do is your business but if you want some generic idea that you can morph your idea from, then go into a reputable tattooshop and look on the walls. Or better yet, talk to a tattoo artist and figure it out. You got logical feedback from levelheaded people. If you dont like it GTFO. Good luck with your drug addict/ deserter/ thief tattoo. Im starting to think this is just a troll. I feel like ive been had.
