Tattoo Me

masters24 · 07-01-2005, 11:37 AM

This was a post back at the "other" site...
But, back to the topic...

These are two ideas for the tattoo's that i am gonna get...

I will hopefully get it next week sometime, (if finances don't run too low)

I am leaning towards the top one, but which do you think...

Cheers guys... Masters

sorry to go off topic... but i'm also thinking of getting a tattoo done in a couple of years... i want the Metallica star (its actaully 4 M's joined together and designed by Hetfield)... and i want it black with blood red highlights.... would look awesome IMO... but you have to live with these things forever so you have to be absolutely sure its what you want

One of my mates has the metallica star on is right arm. It has white highlightsinstead of red. Looks pretty good imo.

Can I make a suggestion? Don't!

When I was younger, I wanted the Sepultura tribal 'S' as a tattoo. Luckily, I didn't, and I'm glad I didn't. A mate of mine did, and now regrets it - he hates it. When I wanted it, Sepultura were at their prime (Arise album) but now they are nothing like that. I think Metallica are well beyond their prime too, but that's a personal opinion...

I have both of my arms tattooed from the shoulder to my elbows, and amongst that I have only 1 small piece of 'flash' (pre-designed tattoo), the rest is totally custom, one of a kind art that none else on this planet has - and I like that stuff the best. Maybe it's not as good as some perfectly designed flash, but it's mine and that's the best thing anyone can do IMHO.

Find a good tattoo artist (I can suggest a few in various places...) and ask them to design something based on a theme and a style you want. Decide you want it and can live with it, and go with that.

well its often I can pick up on oversights. FordFan86 is definately male.

Definately go for the top one, it looks better with the longer neck.

FordFan86 · 07-01-2005, 11:46 AM

Oh btw.... the top one also looks better for the same reason Van Gelder said... i'd go for that one

blue fairy · 07-01-2005, 01:57 PM

The top image for sure! - The longer neck looks so much better.

07-01-2005, 02:01 PM

go the top one matey...

Twisted · 07-01-2005, 02:29 PM

Top one mate!

masters24 · 07-01-2005, 03:44 PM

Cheeps heaps guys,

where do u rekon, i love the idea of gettin it on the top of my foot, so i can hide it is needed, but i am gonna be in a wedding in sept... i hope i will have closed shoes...

TIKFD6 · 07-01-2005, 08:58 PM

DOnt get it in the top of your foot, it hurts soooooooooooooooo much.

Im hoping to get my new ones(two) soon.

champsky · 07-01-2005, 10:00 PM

lol am i the only one who likes the bottom one????

i think it looks better cause it is better proportion IMHO

but hey go for whateva you like, you have to live with it so what we say doesnt really matter does it??? :P

07-01-2005, 11:59 PM

I have heard the top of the foot is ssooooo painful...like major OUCH!!

But like champsky said, it's up to you in the end.

loxxr6 · 08-01-2005, 09:52 AM

Top looks good.

I'd love to poach your idea and get the same one done myself. As for your choice of location I think on your foot is a bit of a waste....i dunno, I never walk around in thongs or barefoot so I can't see the point in having it covered up.

Go for it mate, use it to ur hearts content!

I am having second thoughts about getting it on my foot now... I thought it was a good place though, because it is easily hidden and won't stretch out of shape!!

hip?
back?

champsky · 08-01-2005, 10:01 AM

oooh oooh on the forhead, on the forehead hehehehehehehehehe

Mike Gayner · 08-01-2005, 10:12 AM

They both look great, but I'd go top.

Yum-Yum · 08-01-2005, 10:29 AM

they both look great masters but as for location I'm partial for the small of the back for gals, that way you can add later with designs that suit the image, you can only add so much to a foot hahaha

champsky · 08-01-2005, 04:52 PM

at the small of your back just above ya butt :P

masters24 · 21-01-2005, 03:49 PM

Last night, I saw a bad thing... the local small town wh*re was weraing a tight black lycra top, revealing her flab and distorted tatoo's... she had them done at the place I was going to get mine, but I have been turned off for a while... I cannot possibly get myself tattoed with that image in my mind...
Please forgive me... IT WILL HAPPEN!!!

Discovery · 21-01-2005, 04:44 PM

Just be sure you REALLY REALLY want it and look around at tattooists before you decide. Don't worry about the pain, it's going to hurt anyway ;)

As for me, I don't like to be like everyone else so don't want the small of my back done, I went for the top of my back/bottom of my neck. Love it, and it wasn't very painful at all. I had a custom one done, once again, don't want to ever see my tatt on anyone else

masters24 · 11-11-2005, 09:59 AM

Well, 10 months later I finally got my tattoo! I am so excited now! I know that you are all gonna ask for pics, but my boyfriend has hidden his camera. I got the top one on my right foot, and MAN did it hurt, but i liked it!

Anyway, WATCH THIS SPACE FOR PICS!!!
