That’s for sure. He had his one hand on his side over the pellet and a grin on his face when he showed me the Glock he bought last year.

Quick update:

I have been posting articles, but most of them have been gun related so I haven’t been updating this thread. If anybody else on here is into guns, feel free to check it out!

I got rid of my firearms after accidentally shooting (not seriously) my son.

Thanks, I appreciate that!

I don’t know what kind of music you listen to, but rock concerts are a GREAT place to meet other people with tattoos. Probably the highest concentration of tattooed people in one spot I can think of outside of an actual tattoo convention.

I need to start leaving my house and doing things. I’ll try going to a concert or two…[Read more]

This. I love women with ink. It drives me wild. Especially colorful ink. Women with black and grey sleeves are still hot, but not quite as much.

My wife currently has 5 tattoos. She only had one when we got together. Anytime she says something about getting another one I tell her to go for it. I love it.

And if you…

I understand all the reasons against it, but to quote poxy from earlier in the thread, fuck people.

There are exceptions to everything. However very few for having text tattoos.

It’s a win win for both of you. You get exposure if they put it on their website or Facebook, and they get exposure from your blog.

Is it better to gain exposure from others? I’ve always been happy exposing myself.

Listen to the song and look at the lyrics and see if there is anything in the song that gives you an idea. If the song is the bowling for soup song, it keeps talking about ice cream. You could do a cartoony ice cream cone with a smiling face, maybe with the mouth sewn up. It’s goofy but that could be cool. I don’t know…

Maybe he kept moving his arm while he took the picture. 😉 (I can’t stop giggling. Thanks Sam!!)

And to cover that??? You are going to need a MASTER at coverups, and like Arni suggests first laser laser laser.

That’s a lot for a 16 year old. I don’t think I would have done it. Especially not that much. Maybe a little flower on her back.

The top part looks like a decent start to a sleeve, it doesn’t come together very well at the bottom to me. If it’s not going to be made into a finished sleeve I don’t like it at all.

What he said ^^^^.

Tattooed Gunner: Tattoo Artist Interview: Stan from The Tattoo Shop in Albany, Georgia

Tattoo artist interview up. Some better pictures than the teaser I posted. Check it out!

I like that idea. I’ve thought about doing something similar but fiance thinks it would be weird. Maybe I can get my tattoo artist to do it 😛

I’d say that pretty much covers it.

I don’t usually get philosophical over tattoos, but here’s your chance. Your fox remind me of something I had in school years ago. It was one of Aesop’s Fables.
“The Fox and the Grapes” The illustration would work in very well. (it may have been on the Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon…[Read more]

I have my next several planned out, it’s just getting the money for them….

I’ll say this, if I ever smell green soap or anything that smells like it, it really makes me want one for some reason.

I love the smell of Green Soap!!!

I would at least add a footnote at the bottom with a link to where the pictures came from.

Yea that may be an idea

How much bigger are you wanting to make it?

Mine will stop when it hits my shoulder. Of course I’ll still have the other side.

I’ve not heard of the dry wrap method before.

Healing for large sessions:

Bandage your tattoo with saran/plastic wrap allowing no air to get to the tattoo for the first 72 hours. Within those 72 hours remove the wrap every 4 hours and wash thoroughly with non-scented anti-bacterial soap. Re-apply wrap with new…[Read more]

When my tattoo is done it gets wrapped in plastic wrap (Saran brand, or Cling Wrap) Every 3 or 4 hours I unwrap it, wash it, and re wrap it (new plastic wrap) for two or three days. Then just use a non fragrance moisturizer a few times a day.

Using a non petroleum lubricant…[Read more]

Getting a tattoo, What to expect during and after.

Looks pretty good. My exceptions are with when the tattoo is done. I don’t get bandaged. I use the dry wrap method. Also I’ve been told MANY times, at least three weeks before swimming.

Thanks. It’s something I’ve wanted to do for awhile and figured I would just go ahead and do it. I’ve got an interview with a local artist I’m putting on there in the next couple of days.
