My 18th bday present to myself. nothing too special, just a tribal design

on the wrist... nice.

i posed pics before but they weren't very good...

I got it back in May, this was less than 24 hrs old


this was 5 mins ago

i like how tats look so bright and bold right after you get them. but then they start to fade with time

Not if you treat them right, from the very beguinning! It also depends on the ink/artist; ie. how deep they go, strength of the ink, vibrance of the ink, etc.

Yeah, I knew what the Yakuza were, and I've seen that style of tats before, I've just never heard them referred to as Yakuza Tattoos. That's cool, I don't have any though. That's a lot of work man. I've got a japanese piece i'm working on currently, nothing that big though, just the size of my chest.

I was thinking about getting this...

I photoshopped it on

That's cool, but why not get a deftones' themed tat? Instead of an exact copy of the album art? I think it'd be more worthwild for you as well as having a 1-of-a-kind piece of art on you! Just a thought.

-Triscuit

I like the album art, thats why Not saying your idea is bad, I just think this album art looks like a good idea for a tat, you can look at it and not know that it has to do with deftones at all. I think "band" tats aren't a good idea because who knows if you are going to like them in the future, its like getting a girls name tattooed on you.

hmm guess i'll need to post new pics of mine. i got self designed one on each arm

yeah mine is self designed too! weeee

I just need a place to stick it now Lol

post a picture of the design, so we can give u imput on where to put it.

edit: trampstamp ftl

Well I tried taking a picture via my cell phone of my design since im at work... as you can see it came out blury sooo I had my phone digitize it so make it crisp & clear woooo.

Its an A & an S merged together (my first & middle initials)









So that is pretty much how it will look...except it will just be black ink. If you don't like it ---> dont tell me LOL I'll be stuck with it not you! hehe.......

Anyway I have been doodling this little design for like 6+ years now & all these years I say this is what I would get if I ever got a tattoo...Sooo at least I have taken the time to think about it, right?!


I'm thinking about either putting it on my lower back, or ankle......maybe my upper back on my shoulder or somethin? I dunno! I don't know how big I want it to be either.

Cant decide *sigh*

Mine is not original, but its traditional. Just a souvenir from my 10 years of service. Planning on getting another tat on my other arm for balance, but not yet sure what i want.

[Valo666]

my tattoo since its finaly healed..its not bad looking, but it needs touch ups.


im gonna go out in about a month or so and gonna get another one with my gf. Shes getting a huming bird on her shoulder or neck and im gonna be gettin this on the back of my calf..


im gonna get it so that is just an out line but its coming out of the shadows kinda and only colour is gonna b the rose

you like the movie "Just Married"? Psssshhhh I fell asleep watchin that lol

So how much will the new tat cost you???

I will most likely be getting my tattoo this week some time. Just waiting to get my tax refund which will be between now & friday the 26th

[Valo666]

*shrugs*...my first one cost $60 and comes with free touch ups for life. So if it fades alot, i can get it re-done for free. But im gonna go to a diff tattoo parlor cuz i wasnt happy with my first one, but im guessin probably $150ish...im doin it step by step. Im doin that one next, then after that im gettin a portrait of my grandparents from their wedding day. Hes been really sick lately so its gonna be a memorial for him.

[amysmojo]

*gulp* I did it I did it! Best part was I barely felt a thing, I was like your kidding me... my cat bites harder than this haha. So either that spot doesnt hurt when u get a tattoo ...or I have a higher than normal pain tolerance

anyway here are some cell phone shots:
