Share your tattoos (no triggers please 🙏🏻)

Thanks Daniela! I’m very happy with it! For me line work tends to heal so much faster than work with shading so that’s a big plus :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::call_me_hand:

This is beautiful @Scorpn and so meaningful. I’m so glad that you had it done. Hoping that your valentines was a good day and each day going forward will be also as much as possible.

@poppyfairy Thanks again for the cake! Thought I’d share this as it was relevant! I have mad love for my boy Saitama :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::call_me_hand:

This is on my right ribcage! A spicy location for a tattoo, this thing is only about 2 inches tall and I almost tapped out. Maybe a 7/10 on the pain scale? It’s been about 6 years since I got it but I still remember it being a rough one!

No shit! So it was really good shot with that cake :slight_smile: I remember you posted that there is new season and you like it. Im not a huge anime fan, Ive seen few classics like Dragon Ball, One Piece, Tsubasa (I’ve watched it ~30 years ago but still remember)… One Punch Man is also in my top, it was so funny to watch. I heard Attack on Titan is very good but haven’t seen it yet.
Super cool tattoo btw!

It was a direct hit :sweat_smile: thank you for remembering!

I grew up watching DBZ, Pokémon, and YuYu Hakusho so I can relate to loving the classics!! Now that I’m an adult I collect the manga for a lot of my favorites as well!

Attack on Titan is a great series! Demon Slayer is also a really solid option if you’re looking for a newer series to get into!

Thank you, definitely all credit to the tattoo artist! This and that Michael Scott tattoo were done but the same guy, his ability to be super detailed in a small area is second to none! I’ve got three other tiny portraits by him of Rainn Wilson as Dwight Schrute, Joaquin Phoenix as Joker and Ryan Gosling as K! I’ll try to get some good pictures of them and post next week! :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::call_me_hand:

I wish there was a :fire: reaction option!

Avoided the full spiciness of the kneecap. But will get something directly over the other kneecap at some point

I love it! It’s unique.

Just get the word kneec

Over your kneecap, and if anyone asks, tell them it hurt too badly to finish. :joy:

Speaking of silly tattoos, I got this one done a few years ago and I can resolutely tell you that it’s one of the most useful ice breakers I have in my arsenal

When meeting someone new and learning their name I can say “I’ve got your name tattooed on me” and be right no matter what their actual name is :smiling_face_with_sunglasses::call_me_hand: only works if I’m in shorts though as it is on my right thigh and I’m not trying to drop trou in front of strangers!

See, that’s where I’d think it would be a fun conversation starter.

“Wanna see a tattoo of your name?”

Funny on paper for sure, but in practice it may be misconstrued :rofl:

Exactly! I appreciate a good joke but not at that cost :sweat_smile:

Question for ya’ll how do you decide tattoo placement? I have 2. Both on my back. Now i want a tattoo i can see everyday but not be visible on arms. Ok, now that im writing this out…

I was thinking left thigh. Could entertain calf or foot. Do feet hurt? Im thinking a large tree of life

A tattoo on the foot will fade quicker since your feet exfoliate more there. But, I know many people who have beautiful feet tattoos; and depending on the line work, the fade can make them more beautiful as they age.

Personally, my calf was the least painful part of my leg. I almost feel asleep while they were tattooing me!

I love my thigh tattoo.

It’s like my little secret, that sometimes peeks through when I’m sitting down in shorts.

Then I can be like: my eyes are up here.
