TATTOOS! RAWR YEAH!

So, how many of you have tattoos? What do you have and what made you pick it? Did you enjoy the experience of getting your tattoo? Do you want more?

I currently only have one tattoo, a small dragon silhouette on my hip/ass/leg (it's kind of in the middle of where all of those places meet!) and I got it because I looooove dragons and dragon mythology and I just thought it looked totally badass. It's tiny though, and some people have said it looks like a phoenix on the photo, but it's definitely a dragon when you look at it in person.

I loved getting it done, it wasn't painful at all and it was a nice experience actually! The tattooist was a cool dude, I went with my friend and we were both going to get one, I went first and she sat there watching me get it done and kept on like swinging in her chair and stuff, and I was like, thinking in my head "If you move this smurfing chair I'm in cos you're swinging, I'mma stab you!" and she ended up not getting hers, but I was sooo pleased I got mine.

I'd love to get something added to it but I'm not sure, it's just really small and I feel like I want to make it bigger now. Maybe put some kind of flower patterns behind it and stuff.

The next tattoo I want is some kind of feather/dream catcher motif on my foot, I'd also like a hummingbird, a treble clef and some kind of angel wing somewhere. (I just want everything!

)

Nope, don't have any. Don't plan on getting any. I'm boring.

If I was pressed to get one I'd get the moon-and-star symbol from Morrowind. And maybe make it say something in Daedric if I was feeling really ambitious. It'd probably go on my shoulder or something, I dunno!

I want two at the moment, and I know the exact designs for both, but money is really the only thing that is stopping me. I'll probably get the first one done later this year. I'm also paranoid about the artist messing it up but I'm sure it'll all be fine >_>

Nope, just freckles on my skin.

I have the reversed MJ disease, so I'm actually a white boy.

I don't need any more skin distractions. Thought about getting one to cover up a Vitiligo patch, but it would only end up looking worse.

I want one but I don't know what I would want tattooed and where. I'm not really a person who cares too much about symbols or anything.

And by "reversed", do you mean you're a white guy with huge dark patches?

I've been really fascinated with tattoos for years now. Sometimes I really want one, but then I change my mind. I always end up thinking "what if I get unhappy with it after some time blah blah blah". I won't be surprised if I end up getting one at some point, but it should definitely be the right tattoo in the right place... and it needs to suit me. I'm e.g. pretty sure that colorful tattoos won't suit me. If I get one I'm gonna opt for something simple and clean.

I have four tattoos right now, and I want hoards more. I have my skin all mapped out for it.

(SPOILER)

This was my first tattoo and it was the most painful 50-minute experience of my life. It's a rockinghorsefly from Alice in Wonderland.

This was my second tattoo. It went super quick and didn't hurt at all. I looove my text tattoo.

This was my third. He's since been finished with suckers added and colored in. He is my pride and joy, but I need him touched up a little.

This is my most recent tattoo in progress (the photo is pretty troutty). I started him in September and he's been unfinished since because I decided to put everything I had into going to Sweeeeden. I hope to get him all colored in sometime soon.

My next addition will be a jellyfish just below the squid!

Cherry boob tattoo.

I'm gonna start a biker gang and we're all gonna get matching tattoos.

Alternatively, I sort of want one, but I don't care enough to think about what I actually want. So I probably will never get one.
