50 star face girl is going to pop up in this thread...lol

PS, not sure how easy it is to tell, but my tattoo girl has her own shoulder tattoo. A pentagram :D

WOW, that is by far the worst portrait I have ever seen. I hang out a lot around shops (mainly by own artist's) and I have never come across work that bad:roflpuke2:

Yeah frost, I dig that devil girl. Her having her own tattoo adds a nice touch too. Oh yeah, just thought I would add, my tattoos are all hand drawn first, directly on me, then tattooed. My artist is a true "custom" artist.

Nice mate, if you can draw that well and already have friends in the business, ever thought of making the leap?

I've thought about a little bit. I've already invested over 6 years in the Marine Corps though. I'd like to retire then maybe make the transition.

You know Frost, I was just looking at your tattoos again and damn..... that would have been a long boring sitting for your triple x's. That's a lot of black and a lot of repetition. Your artist did pretty good though. Looks like you took good care of it.

There's been a question about the "randomness" of my tattoos, so I'll explain real quick and you'll see they aren't random at all. Each one represents a different facet needed to survive in life.

the geisha represents struggle

koi (swimming upstream) perseverance

buddha - wealth (not in money but knowledge/spirituality)

snake - wisdom/cunningness

hania (the thing in the snake) - change

dragon - strength

sun - life

cherry blossoms and windbars are customary for japanese tattoos for filler

There you have it.

I knew there was something beind it, just couldn't tell cause half of it is still just outlined. Good stuff though.

See once you actually know what it means... it all makes perfect sense and isn't so random.

what the hell? no new pics in here?!

I know this thread has been down for awhile but....
