I just posted this over at the http://www.V2-Forum.com. I wanted to post it here too because there's a lot more traffice on this board. I thought it would be cool for people to post pictures of their skin art. I am looking for some idea's for myself too. Not that I'd copy exactly anyone's tat but just a theme or an idea is all I'm searchin' for. Have fun with it and let's see your TATS!!! Even a sketch you made or someone else made of a tat you are going to get would be cool too. :smoke

My tats are original works from my brain to my artist's pen and then his gun. I avoid posting them because they then become public domain but I will just cause.

The "T" is for my wife's name and has a rose with a barbed wire stem.

And the other is a pair of crossed Colt 1851 Navy's (Hickok's weapon of choice).

The next one is in the design stage. Dropped off my idea a couple weeks back and he's working on it. But that one is going to cost some serious duckets, even with the break he gives me.

I have my daughters name on my chest, but it is just hand written letters, and a tribal sun in the middle of my shoulders (below the neck lineof course...I am thinking of gettting another one inhonor of myPlt in Iraq this last time. A couple ofthe guys already have different versions of "grizzly" tattoed on them. I am going back again wiht a different Plt inJanuary though, and will most likely go again after that theway things are going, so I amkinda holding off.

Excuse the quality, cause it's a digital camera self portrait... kinda awkward...

here's my first (well, first couple).

http://www.gigabikes.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10081/TatDead.jpg

This tells a story. It started out as a Grateful Dead Dancing Bear Riding a Harley... (back when I got it in 93 or 94)...then when I got back from riding Route 66 with the HOG national tour in 96 I added to it... the Route 66 sign and the buzzard


This one's on my leg. It's the Tora No Maki (Tiger in a Roll, or Master Scroll/Text). It is the artwork on the cover of Gichin Funakoshi's textbook on Shotokan Karate (they style I've trained in the most since I was a kid, and the style I still train in/teach today... actually, I'm leaving for a training in a few minutes). I always promised myself that I'd get one, I mean, like when I was 13... I didn't get around to it until 1998...

http://www.gigabikes.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10081/TatShotokan.jpg



This last one is my wife's... she and her two oldest sisters (they're 3 of 8) got matching toos before the baby of the 3 left for the Marines (she's in Ramadi right now, due to rotate home soon after being their about a year). They each got it on different parts of their body... my wife wanted the stripper too God bless her :D



http://www.gigabikes.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10081/TATONLYIMG_0393.jpg


That's all for now... but I've been thinking for the past few years that I'm overdue for another so we'll see.

Gotwa
I have a similar tattoo on my back.
I hunt bear in Northern Maine with a .44 Mag Ruger and my life long hunting partner (who lives in Maine) carries a Ruger .45LC
So I got a pic of each some years back and redrew them crossed like an X.
The Tattoo guy put that pic on my back and on my pal's arm. Then he ripped up the drawing.
Very similiar to other logos but an original and meaningful tat for sure.

A flying eagle on my back
a tiger's head on left arm
a Harley shield on left arm
a dragon on right arm

12th October 2005, 15:09
I have to agree with Gotwa, My tattoo is based on a couple of MC Esher woodblock prints. One from early in his career, and the last woodblock he did before he passed away. I combined the two together into a workable tat that my tattoo artist could work with. The overall tat is 3 interwoven snakes in a circle. The background of which is a chainmail mesh of ever smaller rings toward the center. Where the rings got to small for the tattoo artist, we overlayed a black oak tree in the center that Esher did as a young man. This tattoo was done in about 10 inches across my left shoulder blade.

My wife has two large tats one on each shoulder blade. The first is a Saddle Bred horse taken from a wonderful watercolor painting. The second is an English Setter on point in the tall grass. Both are very realistic in their rendering. I feel the need for more ink, but I just havent settled on any new ideas that really hit me yet.

I can't seem to edit my post on page 3 of this thread, but I recently changed the pic of Jenn's tattoo substituting one of slightly better quality, so I thought I'd repost it here with the new link

Here was the story

"This last one is my wife's... she and her two oldest sisters (they're 3 of 8) got matching toos before the baby of the 3 left for the Marines (she's in Ramadi right now, due to rotate home soon after being their about a year"

Of course, her sister just got back from Ramadi a week or so ago, but the facts remain the same...

http://www.gigabikes.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10081/JennsTatclose6021.jpg

and here she is with her sisters... (this was the night at dinner when they showed their conservative Christian parents their new matching toos... a good moment)

Here's about the only pic I have where you can get a good look at some of the work on my left arm.

Actually, now that I had a look of that pic, maybe I should start taking pictures of my art. Because it looks like crap in this pic, you can hardly tell what they are.

Right shoulder blade a Scorpion with Scorpio underneath. the lower head has a fish tattooed for girls that don't eat meat on fridays - that was a hell-of-a-night in Hong Kong about 35 years ago. All my ink is old, and don't want no more

Guy and Michele don't have any children, but his sister Hannah is a really good tattoo artist. Her work is exceptionally nice. He's still doing seminars at the conventions and his book is doing well. It's a manual he sells to tattoo artists at the seminars and on his website.

Here's one with a story.....

I like to keep mine simple. Originally I was supposed to have USMC with a bulldog underneath. However on the way I drank the bulldog money so all I got was the USMC. (Back then you could get a tattoo drunk)

Anyway, this pick isn't me, but I have the same USMC part, I think I'm going to get this bulldog to finally finish it off. For me it's perfect.

Of course I'll leave off the 0311 part though, I was a 6521.

Here's my first tat, which I got last November. It's about 8 1/2 inches tall by 4 inches wide and is on the rigth side of my back:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v12/screaminmeanie/tat.jpg

My avatar is the basis for my second one, which is on my left upper arm.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v12/screaminmeanie/celtic_dragon1.jpg

It is still in progress and is very brightly colored. Don't have a photo of it yet.

I go back to finish the one on my left arm at the end of this month (he also wants to "brighten" my first one since he's not happy with the colors - I'm fine with it, but I figured if the artist wasn't happy, I should let him do what he wants - he's not charging me for the touch up), and will start my third one, which will be a Phoenix on my right calf. The first two I brought him the image I wanted. This third one I'm going to let the artist design (same guy for all three) because he's doing one for my husband that he designed and it is awesome.

here is mine. 10 years old and never looked like I wanted it to. Glad I can't see it. I like the sleeping dragon with one eye open. Just wish you could tell what it is. http://images.snapfish.com/346528476%7Ffp345%3Enu%3D3233%3E48%3B%3E7%3A5%3E23 2448%3B896%3B67ot1lsi

Just saw this message thread...

Anyway here are my tats..

This first one I got back in 93, its a gothic looking rams skull with my initials in it:

http://www.az-stoltenberg.com/albums/tattoos/left_arm.jpg

This next one I got back in 2000. Its just flash art off the wall, but at the time I really liked the art and still do. Its on my right leg. (yes it goes from my knee down my leg to my ankle... lots of pain behind the knee, I tell ya

http://www.az-stoltenberg.com/albums/tattoos/right_leg.jpg

This one I got last spring. I wanted a cool looking dragon atop a castle tower breathing fire... The tatoo artist drew this up for me based off of a dragon head that I liked.. I think it came out pretty cool. Its on my left Leg

http://www.az-stoltenberg.com/albums/tattoos/left_leg.jpg

Been thinking about getting another one soon. Would like to get my daughters names in a tattoo somewhere.. Have considered a double bladed battleaxe, going from my shoulder to my elbow, with dragons twined down the hilt and my daughters names, one on each blade, in some cool looking script... still running it through my mind on what I want it to look like before I have some draw it up..

Hey Jason, if you like Celtic designs check out this website. www.luckyfish.com. Her name is Pat Fish and she does the best Celtic tattoos I've seen. She's in Santa Barbara. Lots of good designs and ideas on her site.

I am just starting out, so not much here yet. I want to get a lot more done. The truck and flag was my first, and I was not too impressed with the artists. I wish I would have researched more before having him do it. The two scrolls with my kids names on this, I think turned out great. The girl that did it is one of the best out there, in my opinion. I have one more blue scroll to add when my 3rd kid is born in October. After that I am going to have a background put it.

Hi All,

Well here's my newest and probably last tat. I've been thinking about it for a long time, finally decided it WAS time.

http://xlforum.net/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=11495&cat=500

The artist was only 26, but preferred to do "Old School" tattoos. I took one look at his portfolio and knew he was the right guy.

Regards,

Here are some pics of a new tattoo I got last night.

It is not complete or healed up. I will go back in ten days for color and touch-up.

If you look close just above the dragon's head, you can see an old tat that I had covered up. When this tat gets colored the old one will disappear completely.

I'll post more pictures when it's completely done.

Nough said - where I come from, we draw on paper and not on each other. (JOKE - typical South African humor)

Anyway. I have a 2005 XL 1200 Custom - Black of course. Now, I know that this side is pro-Sporty and that is why I want to ask the question.

I want to upgrade to the new 2007 Softail with the 1584cc motor and the six speed gearbox. It also comes standard with the 200mm rear tyre and new custom all in one seat. I am six feet two inches and weigh in at 105 kg. I feel the sport is a bit small and that I could get better performance, two-up, on the softail. Good/bad decision?

Thanks!

In Philly, I recommend THESE GUYS (http://www.myspace.com/oldecitytattoo). Anyone in the shop is fantastic from the pieces I've seen. I've only had work done by Jason Goldberg, though. He did the turkey tattoo, which is unfinished. Once it's done, I'll post a pic.

Most of my tattoos were done HERE (http://www.myspace.com/scrantonmarcs). Chris Jones (Jonesy) and I.J. Hosey (I.J.) are 2 of my best friends and 2 of the most talented tattoo artists I've ever had the pleasure of meeting.


If you're not from either area (Scranton, PA - Northeastern PA or Philly), it's definitely worth the trip to get tattooed at either place!

Cheers,

I'll post pics in a day or two,But has anyone here with tattoos ever been stopped by the police,Had your tattoos photographed,Then the officer asks...'whats your gang affiliation?' what the hell is that? I got stopped in NY on 684,and thats what they asked me.All of my tattoos are ones i got in the navy maybe i could have said 'the engineroom gang? lol! They were very interested in the Tats of my kids names, which are In Kanji,as my kids are 1/2 japanese so i have their names in Japanese tattooed on my arms and neck.I told them what they characters meant but they didnt seem to buy it. what gives??

No,I was stationed in Pearl Harbor on the USS Robert E.Peary FF1073,My ex was born and raised in Hawaii,Her parents came to Hawaii from Shibuya I think.I remember the MIDWAY,The first time i ever saw an aircraft carrier! that was in the sea of Japan,Too big for me,I'll take a 'Tin Can' anyday lol.I never did get tats in Japan,I got mine in Australia,Singapore,Hawaii,Phillipines,And then i got transferred to the Atlantic Fleet I HATED the Atlantic fleet.I got tats in Crete,Italy and spain.I dont have any 'GANG' tats,But i think thats what the troopers thought they were looking at lol! never been a part of any gang,Unless you consider the engineroom guys a 'GANG' or at times with the way my kids getting at each others necks you could say i feel like i'm in a gang.

I got part of this about 4 years ago, then I added to it about 3 months ago. Didn't turn out too shabby. It was all free-hand drawn on me, then the guy just started in on it.

The fella with the Dragon is my handsome husband, Mike. That dragon was also free-handed on his arm by the same guy right after mine was done.

This is the beginning of my Dante's Inferno. The work was done on Saturday (April 26th) and is only the beginning outline of what will eventually be a full leg sleeve.

And the individual scenes. The first is the first few lines of the Inferno, and the scrolls between the scenes are comprised of the warning inscribed above the gates to Hell. Sorry for the beastly big pics.

Wandrur that looks like the making of a sweet collection, I especially like the fact that all of it is one flowing theme. Keep us updated as it progresses.
