OT: Tattoo Thread

Sup yall! I got my first ink last evening , and figured we needed a thread to share finished pieces and works in progress.

Here's mine, it's my own artwork, a piece that's going to fill my back/arms, but I started with the skull & sword. Outline only so far, lots more work to do! Damn they're addicting! I want more already!



Let's see what ink you got!

On a side note... I believe we need an OT subform already

Thanks I got this a few days ago. Still have to go in a just darken things up, add some value and texture to more pieces. Helmet will be darker to make skull pop more, the handles of the swords need more texture, etc. Since this is all line work it was a hell fest to get tatted.

I also got this done at the same time. An Mc Escher angels and demons tattoo. Also a work in progress, demon will be darker, but did this with stipuling instead of etching hatch work like the above.

Did both all in 5 days straight. I'll never do that again!

Had it for a few years now.

It was done in tradditional Thai style with Chopsticks with tattoo needles on the end. Took 36hrs alltogether.

The flame lilly is the national flower of Zimbabwe,
the dragon is actually the "Nyaminyami", the god of the Zambezi River.
all the colours represant the Zim flag
I grew up on the Zambezi river which all the water represents.
My dad also died on the river, so a tribute to him to.

hope you like it

Honestly, the elbow wasn't too bad or the inner bicep.

The WORST was mum the inside of my elbow. It has crazy detail. I was dyinggggg. I'm pretty good with pain, but for some reason that spot really fucked with me.

I can't wait to get in the chair again and start tying everything together.

Nice black and grey work!!
My elbow has been been my LEAST favorite place to be tattooed so far!! I have some family representation in flowers too. These pics are prior to going 3/4 sleeve with the DJ piece. I was really pleased at how the dry brush stroke watercolor look came out.

I just had a session on my eventual sleeve about 2 weeks ago, hence the redness. I just got the flowers... my mom, sis, and grandma's birth flowers.

Next session is a piece on my triceps and some filler.




All the black/grey work is more recent. The other random shit is from my younger days. My arm will be 100% covered once complete. I'm finishing the 3/4 sleeve completely, then on to figure out what I want below the elbow.

This is my first tat, its the Lionheart from Final Fantasy VIII to remind me of my love for video games, where my roots are, and that i'll always be a kid at heart that will love to have fun.



My second one me and 3 of my other friends got before we all split up after high school, its just us saying we're in the same crew of dirty scallywags

Started this sleeve about 2 years ago and still haven't got round to getting it finished, looking for some DJ/Music inspired art for the rest of it

I reckon this is worth a bump, so many new members since 2010. I've always toyed with the idea of a tattoo but never had a good enough idea of what I want to take the plunge. Let's see what all yours are like, maybe I'll find some inspiration.

It says 'progress' in morse code.

Kasi Kyung

Sweet! I haven't had any new ink for about a year... SAD because I wanna get my sleeves started... Anyway... Here's mine...


Neerrddzzz!


Yes I'm an Apple nerd, but I got this because of the IDEA, 3 friends ( 2 anyway) putting their minds to it and defeating the biggest corporation in the field. (and then came to be that biggest corporation, that I dislike, but the Ingenuity and Innovation is still there aka JONATHAN IVES!)


Everybody... STFU and get along


And another :-D It's what I live by though, I tell people when they ask, "Try to imagine that there is no box that you have to believe out of." Usually involves a lot of "wtf i am unable to comprehend" looks where I live...


'Begin Love' in HTML and the Aquarius constellation (that I'm not happy with, gonna be covered by sleeve that will include a BETTER version :-D)


The other half, 'End Hate'


And MORE NERDNESS! "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" -O mofuggin P

I also have one on my chest that says "Hacker in hebrew (grew up jewish and upon learning more about Israel and Judaism and religion in general *IMO* are not for me and I despise Israel's Nazi tactics... Another conversation, another time :-D)

And one I can't get a pic of because it's on my back, "Peace cannot be kept by force, it can only be achieved by understanding" -A. Einstein.

That's me! :-D
