Amazing Sleepy, Your sleeve is looking great.

Don't have krillin but i still have room on the back of my arm, i was thinking of all 7 Dragon ball's and maybe Master Roshi & King kai as well. My artist is doing all my old characters for free cause he did them all 11 years ago and i help him advertise.

I apologize for these old cruddy pics, but I ran across them buried deep in my photobucket, and figured I'd post them...



Some of the Star Wars arm...



Inside of that arm


Old pics of the incomplete film strip reel on my leg:
Star Wars

Empire


Jedi hadn't been started at the time but is finished now. Maybe I can get somebody to take newer/better pics of my tattoos sometime soon.

This is a piece of art from my favorite author Kurt Vonnegut Jr.

Hey I searched and didn't see anything like this yet. Figured I'd start one and see if anyone else can contribute. First off let me say tattooing is an art form, sure there are bad tattoos out there, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Second, since tattoos are pretty personal please keep negative comments to yourself, I don't want anyone's feelers hurt. Third, lets all appreciate the many different styles if tattooing there are out there.

I'll start with some of mine.

Started a sleeve about a year and a half ago. Pretty much finished up now, but waiting on my chest to connect em. Feel free to ask me any question about them













I still need to get a real photo of my sleeve, it's harder than poo to take a pic if your own arm.

Now I'm working on my chest. The script says "to each his own" and was my first tattoo ever. Done by a different artist, and it was a script that I combined and added my own "flare" to it. Honestly I don't love it as much so I stopped acting like I could design my own tattoos, haha. Everything else has been done by a professional.

Here's progress pics of my chest so far



Close up of line work


Added shading


First color sesh.


2nd color sesh


And that's all I have for now. I'm going full body (minus neck, hands, feet) ill update as I get more. But I would love to see what else is out there.

looks like quality work! And really good ink!

My first ink project is done, I am just aching for moar.....lol. This is worse than modding my car.

Yep. When I was 18 getting my first tattoo I was sitting in the chair thinking about what the next one would be. They're worse than crack...but at least you when you're done you still have something to enjoy. :giggle:

Love your avatar by the way. :drooling:

I am currently working out the next project for my other arm. Since the right arm is all flowering the other arm will be showing all my vices

Thanks :D the original idea I had for it was different but we weren't gonna have enough space to fit everything so we had to slightly modify the design. But I wanted the head to wrap around my whole arm. I thought it was a cool idea that I had never seen done

Thanks for all the compliments guys! Tattoos are so amazing, and everyone tells a different story. Thanks for sharing not only your art, but the story as well.
