My tattoos have faded quite a bit, but then again, so has the rest of me.mamabearCali wrote:Those are so pretty (very colorful)--do the colors stay like that or do they fade like the old tattoos of yesteryear? Sorry if I am showing my ignorance here--my experience with tats was on my grandad's arm from WWII.
I respect your choices and will never "Judge." Matt. 7:1 "Do not judge, or you too will be judged."canvasbck wrote:I, along with most people who have tattoos, totally respect that.

I was just stating why I would rather they not be on me.
Many who don't have tattoos tend to judge those who do based on "the old laws".
Part of my reasoning has to do with two knee surgeries in five months.canvasbck wrote:I don't recommend the zipper.......the artist did too good a job of covering the scar, now I have to explain it to anyone who looks close enough to recognize that it's a zipper.jimlongley wrote:I will admit to considering a zipper over my knee scar, or a choo choo train.canvasbck wrote:I have four tats, tribal art on my right leg, a cobra wrapped around my left leg with his hood spread on the calf, a leather arm band with feathers on my left arm, and a zipper on my right shoulder. The only one with a real "story" is my zipper tattoo. Following my third major shoulder surgery, I had a pretty ugly scar down the back of my shoulder. I got the artist to cover the scar with a zipper, hopefully that will make it easier for the next surgery.
For those of you asking about the cost of a tat.............NEVER budget shop for tattoos or a taxidermist, it's supposed to last forever.

Man, I never knew Ozzie had tattoos, I wonder what Harriet thought of them.glbedd53 wrote:Ozzy said it best. "When I got all these tattoos I was tryin to be the outlaw with tattoos. If I had known everybody and their grandmother was gonna get tattoos, I would have just been the outlaw without tattoos".

Just two examples, a vest I did for a friend, the rest are on another computer.
Then I have no idea who you are talking about.glbedd53 wrote:Pay attention. I said Ozzy. Not Ozzie.
I do a lot of other stuff, that was just the pics I had on hand - yes, for money, but not much, and we stay busy, but not enough to make a business out of it.speedsix wrote:jimlongley wrote:BTW, I DO embroider (with a machine) which gives me LOTS of temporary "body art."

Sounds like a novel I once read.danpaw wrote:What?? jimlongley don't know the Prince of Darkness?
some pretty inspirational "tats". We haven't made up our minds yet of what, and where we want 'em.
