tattoos are addictive (the official tattoo and body mod thread)

[GingerBiscuit]

Ok, so I have plans for my next two tattoos already- the kitty and crossfish I talked about earlier, and a zombie pinup on my thigh. Which should I get first.

[Shpepper]

tough choice but I would do the kitty and crossfish. Just cuz I's a Kat too.

Just got the outline done on my phoenix. All I could afford. Pics up when I don't feel as though I've been run over.

Ow. Ow. My back is on fire.

But at least my wings are finished. £250 in total, 51/2 hours in total, three sessions and they're here. I feel like me. Properly me.

Getting my ears pierced on the 30th.

So I take it you're already planning your next one?

Ginger~

I want to see pics of the finished product. Im sure theyre gorgeous. The outline alone was very nice.

I need advice on what to get next. I'm probably going to a local parlor tomorrow to talk to one of the artists. and maybe ask what they think. Here is a pic of what I currently have..i want to get something on my left shoulder and maybe creeping out over to the front. I want it to somewhat go with whats already there. Any advice anyone?

It's a very unique design. If you're going with something over the left shoulder, maybe a thorny branch with rose blooms?

[GingerBiscuit]

Oh GOD yes. It always leaves me with the best possible high.

My wife has her next two planned. She has a cutesy dragon on her ankle right now. She wants a star on her wrist and a panda holding a bamboo heart on her shoulder blade.

Me, I have a few ideas after this phoenix is done.

I was thinking vine-like but Im not too into flowers or leaves...if that makes sense. And I like stars. LOL. Im confuzzled.

[Nurian]

Hmm...I'm not sure. I was never too good at visual arts

A quick search on google images brings up these various beauties. I'm sure you could adapt them to be a little more individual...
