HTGTH tattoo thread (questions, pics...)

Yeah, huge tattoos on women are a put off for me. Small ones like the ubiquitous butterfly in a strategic location are sexy.

Tattoos on women = Trash city

..and men with long hair are fags?

Did you know that the butterfly-tattoo's origin is from jail, it represent freedom and bi-sexuality?

I don't mind if a girl has a lot of tattoos as long as she hasn't have any work done on her face and got style on them. I mean these dolphins, roses, haywires and or these tribal thingie with some flowers or stars or buterflies on her lower back, real orginal sis.

I don't particularly care what they represent. I was just giving an example. It could be anything as long as it's small.

For some reason this comment made me think of some cute small kanji-letter-tattoo with a meaning "whore".

Once again, hardly a problem if the tattoo isn't visible normally. I don't think you should be getting too bothered about the 'inner meaning' of a tattoo on someone else's body.

[Sin Cut]

Well, if you're going to have some ink on your body for a lifetime, it's propaby wise to do some research of the orginal meaning and history of the symbol and not just taking something because it's pretty or cool.

Then again, I don't take a tattoo from a list, beacause for me the tattoo should be something orginal and new and not something you see on everystreet corner.

If we take your point of view a bit further; it would be ok to have a japan 16-ray kamikaze flag tattoeed on you? What about swastika? Or maybe take something that you actually don't necessarily link to nazis, a runic symol The Wolfsangel (German for "wolf's hook"). I mean it probably would've been a good idea to do some reasearch now, wouldn't it? (unless the tat is hidden, right?).

Or have a watch with no hands done "because you're in no hurry" or somesuch and never did it occur that it's origins is among inmates serving a life-sentence.

And for me people who have some kanji-lettering meaning noodle soup just strike to me as idiots.

Dear God, you're off on a tangent. Of course, I would research a tattoo I'm getting on my body.

When I saw GN'R in Lisbon (Rock In Rio) in 2006, as I was waiting in the airport. A girl came up to me and said something in Portuguese, and then she showed me her arm. She had a tattoo of Axl in black and white, and she was very proud of it.

I was wearing GN'R clothes, so that's why she approached me. I remember being so happy at seeing that, it was my first ever time seeing GN'R and that sort of kicked the adventure off.

After 5 years i though i'd better proceed further with my (what will eventually be a) sleeve

I remember that GN'R tattoo from when you first posted that pic of it still sealed and then clearly visible. Really nice tattoo, and that dragon is a nice touch too. 

I've always loved that version of the GN'R logo, it was used on the stage banners during live shows in 2006.

I'm definitely going to get one of many GN'R tattoos this year, I'm 22 and feel it's the perfect time. But I might go to London to get it done, seen a good few tattoo shops down there.

I'd rather travel a few hours to a place where the artists are better, than my own area.

Last time when he got the lower part colored in he was crying

[fear the juggalo 2]

cried? i actually dont mind getting inked at all. some of the shading didnt feel fantastic, but cry, no! anyway, were starting to see the light at the end of this long tunnel of a tattoo. as badly as i wanted to start new tattoos in this process i said "i will complete this one first"! its weird watching the video because i cant see the tattoo, so when i do watch the video i'm like "holly shit, is that really my back"? anyway if you like it so far give the artist a little love! thanks!!! oh yeah, tony your up next. its only a needle, man up!!!!!

[dont_damn_me]

wow, that tat is simply amazing, great call to get it done all on the back like that, one of the best i'v seen!! and the artist, he's got some major skills.....great stuff!!! and damn thats alot of physical pain to go thru, how many sessions and hours did that take so far? great stuff!
