Tattoos

@ dakin : my family crest is a snake wrapped around a sword, so I have asked him to do something along those lines, obviously bringing his own style to it. I quite like the look of that thumb cobra he did, so maybe similar to that but on a larger scale. My right arm already has some other stuff on it so the space is a little crowded, I hope he can work with it. Putting in a sword might be too difficult so it's probably just going to be a long bladed knife.

• What's your real name Tenderloin ? Are you also booked in with more from Liam ?
  

Not trying to be a heraldry pedant (which, sadly, I can be...) but do you mean the actual crest, as in your family coat of arms has a helmet on top and a crest on top of that and the crest is a snake wrapped round a sword? Cause that would be pretty rad in itself. Or are you using crest to mean coat of arms?

quick bit of googling - ooh, are you a Moriarty, then? Cause if so, then you do mean the actual crest. Cor!

I've been swooning over it all day.
In the future I want a medieval castle full back piece by him..

no, not my back

It's unbelievable!
Can't wait to get work done by him..

^^One door is open

I'm just not a fan of back pieces.

The top of a mans arse is one of the most stomach turning things I can think of (mixture of embarassment/ugliness) - this is probably why

Kevin, my names Joe btw

Dale, your tattoos are brilliant. Props for choosing a theme and sticking with it. Ace.

No. Nor do I want it to look too much like that.

That's his name on her face. They'd been together a week, apparently. Story here and here and a raft of other places around the web...

Awful stuff.

Awful stuff.

she seems to like it

NSFW?

it seems that she has no other tattoos apart from the two on her face. slightly odd.

on top of that, who cares. live and let live, isn't that the whole point of tattoos other than showing off? Most tattoos won't appeal to most people, right?

(I don't have any [yet?], but I love the art...)

this. also, she got the tattoo the first day they met after an extensive internet relationship.

She was ugly before, so it doesn't really matter.
