Thread: Tattoos

Spoiler for big:

Nice one. What's the story behind it?

I die by fire and am reborn from the ashes. I needed to mark my human form so no one would get confused.

nipple :3
I might get one of my pubic area.
"dragon" in japanese.
sort of like a nametag for my wang.

I dont have any yet but within a few weeks im goin to put the hammer and sickle of the Soviet Union on my left shoulder.

I have a few.
There's a blue rose along my bikini line that was professionally done back in 1992. Thankfully, most of my stretch marks are on my left side and the rose is still beautiful.

I gave myself a tat of a butterfly rising from fire. I screwed up the fire and the tat is primitive looking. It symbolizes perseverance, life against all odds.
Then I have a moon and star on the inside of my left wrist and a rounded "Z" shape with a "u" in it's center on the outside of my left wrist.
Together, they make up my "signature". I gave them to myself as well.

Then I have a "claw" slash of 3 lines higher up on my right hip but also along my bikini line. I gave those to myself when I was testing my "ink". I didn't expect the ink to take so well, so I'm stuck with them (but I like them none-the-less )

That tattoo is so badass that I hardly noticed the hairy nipple in the center lol.

If I ever get a tattoo it will probably be a dragon on my back.

I'm thinking really hard about getting my first tattoo. I was spitballin with my girlfriend and I thought about my new passion for dreams, and am thinking of getting a dreamcatcher, with beatutiful feathers, and in the center have the the treads meshing down to form pine trees and mountains to express my love for nature. My girlfriend thinks its a great idea, as do my friends. What do you guys think? =)

Sounds like a pretty cool idea, I would say go for it.

Im working on two half sleeves that connects over the chest and back. It's all black with lines and dots. Really traditionel, much like the native tribes. The best compare in modern time, is the tattoo in the movie The Fountain. It will symbolise the astral planes, and layers of dreams.

Xaqaria - that is awweeesome. Really nice work.

I have two at the moment, plan on getting maybe 4 or 5 more.
*searches for pics...haha*


tiny heart in the top corner of my left hand. somewhere on here ive explained it before... but when my mother was 16 she got the same thing, with her best friend. I too was supposed to get it with my best friend, but I didn't and that's why i hate this tattoo. I got this when I was 15, and I am 17 now. Photo was taken the day I got it.


Here's another picture of it.



I got this one when I was 16, January of last year. I got it because I love wolves, and I have a love hate relationship with this one, I feel stupid for getting someone elses work on me, but its whatever.

^I'd like this picture a lot more if I hadn't been sitting on a piece of clothing. I think it's a sock.


Hopefully I'll be getting some more soon.
And there has got to be more people here with tattoosss come on.

Haven't got any yet but can't wait to get wings on the full length of my back, a thorn rose vine coming from my hip and wrapping around to my side, as well as side corset piercings.



Gorgeous! Ah. Can't can't wait! Although thats not a tattoo I just had to throw it in there. I have my nose pierced and two ear piercings in each ear. I want my belly button done, my nipples, and two more in each ear.

That's so ridiculously hardcore lol the corset piercing. I've never seen anything like that. My tattoo is getting sketched as we speak Ill be sure to post pictures for your opinions.

That is so hot. I have a thing for tattos and percings. I don't have one yety parents won't let till I'm 18 so I gotta wait a year still. But I'm gonna get tribal bands on my arms and chest and a dragon on my back

Well here's my outline of what I wanted. The artist did a HORRIBLE job but I still love the idea of my backwards clock. I'm gonna get it filled in and redone by someone else who knows what they're doing and hopefully extend and branch out on my chest-piece. Maybe get some shoulder, neck, and arm work done.

I've been tossing around the idea of a hand tattoo, but that would be a HUGE sacrifice to make- with society's unfair take on tattoos. Visible tats will have to wait, I guess. :\

EDIT: Ugh sorry DV admins/mods, I REALLY need to watch these post dates better. I'm going to get kicked in the ass sooner or later.

Wow, old thread.

I've thought about it, but would be afraid to get one unless I was virtually positive I'd never regret it.

I don't mind letting this thread exist for a little bit if it draws the interest.

I have a red sun within a black circle over my heart. In the middle of the red sun is the Japanese character for my son's name.

Someday I'll take a pic and show everyone.

I have an ouroboros around my ankle and a prison style tat on my shoulder someone gave to me when I was drunk. I'm planning on getting the I-Ching tattooed around my other ankle to match the ouroboros and I'm also planning a big one up my spinal cord and wrapped around my torso, a variation of the caduceus.

Still thinking about it, probably will be for some time.

My one friend swore he was gonna get the inscription from the one ring around his bicep - still hasn't, but it's probably still somewhere in the back of his mind.

My dad has a few, his first is a sizeable Chinese dragon on his lower leg, there's this circle thing in the middle containing a character which more or less translates as "honor". It looks really great, but I imagine he'd be a little weirded out if I told him I wanted to take a picture of it "for the interwebs".

It IS a really big decision. But I know once you get one, you really give up that reluctance for more.
Hell, in a few years down the road, they'll probably be able to perfectly remove a tattoo for like 100 bucks too, and it won't even matter.

I just wish it wasn't so damn expensive to get tattoos in the first place... or I'd have fixed mine by now. .__.]

Oh wow, that sounds badass! I'd love to see that.

It's pretty far down the line though, it would probably cost as much as a car

I half-heartedly considered getting a tattoo for about a year or two...then it clicked: I knew exactly what I wanted.
