Default Show Us Ya Tatts

So who on here has some ink they'd like to show?

I'd love to see what others have. Also stories behind them?

Here's a couple I've collected on myself over the past few years:
My first Sleeve, I don't have any photos up of the forearm yet, which was my first tatt, inspired by my brother who passed away. The top part which you can see is a gravestone with a saying on a tattoo by the frontman of one of my favorite bands growing up (Phil Anselmo, Pantera)


This is on my other shoulder, inspired by another of my favorite bands, whom I also know personally and consider them great friends.


This shows part of a tree and sunset with some birds flying away. It is for a friend of mine who passed away who made a living as an arborist.

There is more to this sleeve that I don't have any photos up of. It is a skeleton version of Slash from Guns N Roses, with a Dimebag Darrell guitar smashing through his head I grew up listening to GnR, and I also once owned a Dimebag Darrell signature guitar, and loved it. Plus I love Pantera

Next is my chest piece. Inspired by life and death. Half Angel half Skeleton. I love angels, skulls, roses etc... And I've had many life threatening events in my life. Definitely the worst pain I've ever been through when I got this done, as I have some huge scars it covers.


Here's a crow I got when I started my neck. I've always loved crows. The sound they make and the way they look.


Then decided a sunset would look awesome above the angel. The clock in the middle shows my time of birth



And my latest tatt on my left hand, which I got tonight. It's a skull morphed into a heart, just under Slashes ribcage I've had loads of heart difficulties in my life, which I'd rather not go into detail about. So this is a tribute to what keeps me alive but has caused me much grief! It's not finished, still needs lighter shading and colour.


I have my right hand inked too, but I don't have any good pics of it up.

And a goofy pic I had done for a Tattoo Calendar.




Post up your pics everyone!

There is already a thread for this in show and shine, BUT, awesome collection of ink mate very nice! I have two half sleeves, one has a falcon and a cobra in representation of ford, and a pinup girl on the other with an ocean theme. My chest has song lyrics from oasis and my neck a biohazard symbol. Fingers have some letters too.
How big are your stretched ears?

Haven't got any myself...our youngest son (21 years old) has a beautiful photo-quality portrait of his sister (our oldest kid) and her long-awaited baby she finally had after many years of her and her husband trying, taken from a professional black and white picture. It's amazing.

I found this one on a "bad tattoos" website...not idea why it was on there...it's cool as hell, and I'd have it in an instant!


And here's one I found of Thors hammer with that black light activated ink for the lightning surrounding it...very neat.

Black light activated ink? That's really neat! Never seen it before.

Oh, I don't have any tats, my skin is ink-free.

Just wondering, but do you think you might one day have one removed?

I'm asking because I know some guys who thought theirs would be forever but I guess they changed their minds. (not meant to be disrespectful to any of you guys)
