I've got a couple of smallish ones, both are personal things and mean a lot to me.

I'm personally not a fan of styles of tattoos for the sake of it, though I do have a friend with full tribal sleeves and upper body tribal stuff, looks great, and she adds to them for significant events, so each is personal.


Slightly crappy from knocking scabs off (falling over with a fresh tattoo is bad), but for me that's part of the personality of the tattoo.

My wife's got a little seashell tattoo'd on the inside of her thigh. It's very realistic. If you put your ear to it, you can smell the sea.

Use Bepanthan cream to stop any scabbing

I second that, works a treat. I had no scabbing and it had healed just after a week.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

I have 3 tattoos, all have a distinct meaning to me, i thought long and hard about each one, 2 or 3 years between each of them, im a believer in going for it if you want to, its your body.

Another thumbs up for Bepanthan, no crusty scabbing with that, still get itchy after a few days though, my most recent one has fully healed after just a week.

Ive got 3......... one a dragon head (coloured) on left upper arm chosen randomly on a semi drunken night out in Wan Chai done at Ricky and Pinky's, second one a Tazmanian devil for my wife Tamsin "Taz" top of right leg (coloured) done on a semi drunken night out in Wan Chai at Ricky and Pinky's again, 3rd on my upper right arm of a Seahorse (black)chosen randomly with a hangover in Pattaya while on a weekend of RR with a few mates.

All a bit random and unconsidered but all with memories and dont regret any of thm. Only regret is not being able to chose something for my back.

thanks for all the input guy,s. This is something that has been in my mind for a lot of years, so not a spur of the moment decission. its only now i feel ready to hav e something done. Going to do a little more homework regarding tattooists, and check on some of the links you have left.
Donny race course show is a good call, did'nt know it was on, so thanks for that.

I've got two kanji, one on my shoulder and one in the centre of my back. Have quite personal meanings but a little boring..

I'm trying to find an artist who can incorporate my shoulder symbol into a complex/shaded quarter sleeve.

Brecon Beacons for the week bud. I'd like to say that I was doing my final selection for the marines but I was pootling around in a canal boat.

Sending the exhaust away tomorrow to get a cat fitted. This car will be effing finished if its the death of me .

Im doing my DAS before I go back to uni (in a month) and would love a kwak zx6r.. May even chop my car for one.

Had a flick through... some nice pieces - some very bizarre ones too (ain't there always!). I.e. why oh why would someone want to have a picture of Charles Manson tattooed on them!?

The ni**les look very realistic on that one.


On a related note to color tatoos, I had one made with white accents and all these accents were rejected by my body....

Actually it doesn´t look that bad...
