Ink

[BKBridges]

My Grandfather had a lot of tatoos... As a kid I thought they were bruises as the ink had done a lot of migration over the decades... I finally asked him (in his 80s) what they were: butterfly, mermaid that wiggles when you flex and a heart with his first wifes name in it (not my grandmothers)..Good thing you couldnt tell what they were anymore IMO....I decided that Im not going there.
I personally like ritual scarification... go into the machine shop, set up a piece of .125thk 316 stainless, and try holding it in your hand while you plunge a 3/8" bit through a 1/4" starting hole...very impressive results for life...Or mig weld a cage while your sitting down and "let" the slag fall onto your ankles...

Buy a painting and hand it on the wall instead. That\s my opinion

Mom's cousin's hubby came back from the navy with Betty Boop on his arm... I used to love watching him make her shake her hips by clenching his fist... It was a sorry sight when he got old...

when i was a young man I was gonna get a great white shark on my back, now that shark would look like a wooly mamoth!!
I didnt know i would have a hairy back :O so id suggest drawing it with a sharpy and seeing it for a couple of days It doesnt
matter if it makes you happy! Im not against tat's, I never had anything I wanted on me forever. get a good artist
with a clean shop, and get some refrances!!! take good care of it when its fresh!! been around lots of tats my family and both wifes
had plenty of them.
