Tattoos

[Jess]

I really like tattoos. I have one on my lower back, of a star and a moon. The colour has faded a lot in the past 4 years, I'm thinking of having it touched up.. or possibly extended soon.

[...]unless you get them with that new fangled 'fades in a few years' ink.

That exists?! Why don't you ever tell me these things??

Yeah I read about it in the LA Times a year or two ago. I like to keep things from you cause it's funny. I dont remember much about it, but I know some shops do offer this ink. I'll tool around on the web tonight and see if I can find more info for you.

"Semi-Permanent" tattoos.

I have one, but I wont be posting the picture because the guy who did it screwed it up. I did love the process of it though, it felt great! Very addictive. My next tattoo project will be getting a pretty lotus blossom to cover the mess this guy made on my chest... and that sounds dirty, doesn't it?

Anyway, I plan to get more eventually, but my rule is that everything needs to be covered by everyday wear. I don't want to hurt my chances getting a job. My FH has a bunch of neat ones, so I'll post one of those.

Mad Hatter blotter art... he plans to get it colored soon. The guy who did the work was excellent.

Did you have it when we met? It usually would be one of the things I would notice, but then again it is me...

It looks like a giant herpe anyway.

If you've been into something for a while, it's something you're passionate about, why not? Bad idea to get something that's just a fad, but to use the Triforce example many of us have been playing those games since childhood, and I don't see regretting something like that.

Again, I guess I was just speaking from my own perspective. I'm the kind of person who would probably stop caring about the games later on in life and feel incredibly silly about it and be stuck with it on my skin.

Different strokes for different folks.

It's smurfing beauuuuuuuutiful. The current artist I'm getting to do my arm sleeve charges about 60$ an hour I believe?


How many sittings did you have to go in for?

Thank you ! I had 7 or 8 sessions total. The first one was the hardest, a 6h30 stretch, doing only the black. No color filling. I got out, pale as a ghost, with no energy left, feeling my pulse in half of my body hehe.

Agreed

I did not. This was part of a going away deal involving our best friend Cameron... he, Rigel and I all got the same symbol. Cam's is pretty messed up too, as is Rigel's but it works better because of the pretty blue against his browner skin.

Also, thank you for the link Jess!

I'm so ego-centric I thought your Zelda tat post was about me since . . . well, I have four Zelda tats. :P A Triforce on my shoulder and the three virtue symbols on my forearm, as shown in pics on my profile ... :P

I've been deeply in love with the Zelda games for 20 years. I don't anticipate stopping at any point ever. My only other tat is Auryn from The NeverEnding Story.

I have a thing for tats. Nothing turns me on than a guy with a chest piece and sleeves and a neck tat. Yum! BUT, I don't like face tats. Yuck.

There are pics of all my tats in my profile.

[TheAbominatrix]

I cant stand face tats. I dont really fancy neck tattoos, though there have been some exceptions, but I find the face tattoo to be horrid almost 99% of the time. We were at a party and a guy there had a spade under his chin and the word 'sick' under his right eye. All I could think was 'god, what a twat'.

oh i love that feeling, stepping up from the chair and just barely having the energy to do so. It's surprising how tiring it all becomes.

I can't think of many things that I find less attractive than tattoos--maybe Tertiary Syphilis.

I saw a total butterface girl at Wal Mart today with two big black stars right in the middle of her neck, one of the other. I was about to drag her out by her ear and have her spayed.
