Never thought I would get a tat. This was my mid-life / divorce tattoo. Probably about the only thing I would get.

The original is by Walter Anderson, a fairly well-know artist. His great-grandson did the ink work.

I've been a member of this site since 2008 and I have never posted a message here. But I feel it is important to point out that I love this site. I've learned a lot. I've figured a lot out. And I've even come to appreciate my mac even more so because of this forum. I've just never been much poster. But I enjoy looking at pictures. Of other peoples computers, cars ect... and then I saw this thread!!!! So here are some of my tattoos! :D

Curious.. how many hours and how much $$ did you spend? If you don't mind me asking.

Outer right arm

from a lovely artist I found on myspace

Inner right arm

A slightly modified Mark Ryden piece
Obviously cleaner now, with no red pen or washy ink on my arm.

Both are finished as is. I have room for one more around the back of my arm, and am thinking of something from the artists Miso and Ghospatrol

I have one large one on the front of my right leg that doesn't really look like what it is supposed to. I made the mistake of going with a slightly cheaper who actually reproduced a fantastic Geiger piece on my friend. I guess I should have inspected his portfolio of "original" pieces...

Nice piece. Props to the artist....nice lines and shading.:cool:

Thanks! Yeah, he's incredible. He also did my first tattoo for me, the one that's in my avatar. Actually, time to change my avatar. Here is a pic of the first tattoo.
