[saxowebby]

right ive actually got my first tattoo in memory of my grandad who was like a dad to me, and since then i had the bug so saturday went and had a 3 hour sit and started my tribal, im back 31st july for the last 3 hours.

its not going all black, part black part polynesian pattern because its different
what you think to them both and what have you got.

[modedsaxo]

i have this on my back and i want one on my writs just got other things to do at the moment
http://i808.photobucket.com/albums/zz9/modedsaxo/DSC00266.jpg, picture a bit fuzzy, this took about 3 hours!

[MiniGibbo]

Too much gap around yours imo i know it makes it cheaper but to me it looks "cheaper" no offence intended

Ive got a fairly large polynesian/simoian custom design that is about 1/3 done and allready taken over twenty hours.

http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk96/xmattgibsonx/41702_547965779_893_n.jpg

Ive jsut started on my back had about 3 hours then its down my arm on my hand.

Excuse the "im not impressed" look i jsut got back from the gym lol.

[Lacey_106]

I like the polynesian tattoos they've got so much history attached to them.

[kclipston]

i'm not usually a fan of trible but i love the OP's it looks like a decent artist too :y: i have 2 at the min, stars up my wrist gradually becoming bigger and i have a tattoo on my shoulder of my mum and dads tattoos together :y: im wanting another one that i've just decided on that goes up my ribs down to the end of my hips, then no more for me :D don't want to look manly aha

[saxowebby]

ribs is ment to be the worse place tbh lol good look with that one

[rey]

Ribs is fairly painful, still got 2-3 hours work to finish off my ribcage :panic:

[kclipston]

[Pixie]

Kat von D did a Skull design that i fell in love with so i've printed it off and stuck it on my mirror at home until i save up enough to get it done.
Its gonna go just under my cross on my back . :)

[rey]

The shading on my ribs I enjoyed, but my outline was in no way nice!

[Pixie]

Not sure if i could brave my ribs , even though i have only found out of my 6 tattoo's it only hurt on my Knuckle :S

[Lacey_106]

Deftones lyrics - 'Cause i'm through when the two hits the summer...'


What does that mean ? looks good.

[_adelleda]

it's from the song my own summer.

my interpretation is everything should stop when it's summer. i'm a proper summer person and deftones are pretty much my life :)

Aww okay, kind of like me at the moment since im a student. Will soon be over when i have to get a job though :(

[_adelleda]

I wish I didn't have a job!!! I have to enjoy the summer [when it's not raining] on Saturdays & Sundays and after 4:30PM. BUT!! The reason I have a job is because I'm going to Australia for a year, so there I shall be able to be a summer bum until my hearts content :)

Around the fur, fucking love that album.

What are your ideas for tattoos?

Awesome, if you like surfing you should check out indonesia!

I have loads of ideas, i want to get a tattoo for my dad as he passed away when i was younger, and i have loads of ideas for this just cant decide on one. I would also like some sparrows and a rose somewhere as i like the old school design and look.

My girlfriend Tattoo's in her spare time as a hobby, she's really good concidering she taught herself and has only done it a few months..


Your girlfriend done them tattoos, much better then expected if shes really only done it a couple of months. Dont you need a license or anything?

[french_baguette]

Yeah if you open a business, she just does them as a favor to freinds and family, its more a hobby than anything whilst shes at uni studying fine art.

[_adelleda]

those tattoos are fantastic for a beginner and a hobbie!!! seriously good.

Awesome, if you like surfing you should check out indonesia!

yeah, indo's on my places to visit for sure... yes i have a list!!! aus is at the top, then i'm working my way down lol.

[haz_pro]

[french_baguette]

Thanks, I think she has a natural knack for those kinds of things. It also helps that she is mind-blowingly good at art too, I love these she did for her uni project, i think i might get one tattooe'd on me by her,
