Some lovely ink in this thread!
here are some of mine:


Pink leopard star on my wrist, Malice Doll and I got matching tatts done:)



Pawprint on my thigh






At the top of my back


Ankle bats!


my faves ..I want three more kitties below these at some point:)

I have four more too but I am not overly pleased with them TBH, need some re-wroking done when I have the money!

I love this arm piece, it's gorgeous.

Thanks

Haven't decided what to do with it yet...I always wanted it coloured but its been a year and I like it this way now.

So many lovely tattoo's, can't wait to have my new one done

I had mine done in 2006, the day after my last test, to celebrate graduating from high school. (I knew I would graduate, since I could get 2's and still graduate ) I designed it myself a couple of years before.


After it was just done.
I still need to have it touched up, since some of the lines aren't perfect and the color has faded here and there.

I really thought it would be my first and only one. But as everyone knows, that's silly to even think. Somewhere soon (once I have the money) I will have my calf done, I have the design and I know what it's cost me. I just need the money and the tattoo artist will need to fix some of the lines, maybe add a little easy coast style .

Sorry for the crappy picture, but I do not have a scanner, and apparently my camera is terminal, so I used the webcam.


Later I would like to add the pieces sign (neck), a large tribal/flower-ish hippiece and maybe a giraffe of some kind, somewhere.

Got these done for my 21st Birthday, based on Brian Froud drawings, but re-done to my liking by me. I love these!


Newest tattoo: designed by me - it represents my family (there are 4 of us - my mum and dad are the bigger hearts at the centre, and then the smaller ones are me and my sis). Done by my friend who is an apprentice so its not perfect. It's on my right wrist because my family is my inspiration - im a right handed artist!!

I've got more but they're pretty shit ones, I'll post if I can find some pics. Just going to book in my latest ones asap - birds on my feet.

my first one which i am getting shaded in

[my_purple_skys]

OxiTrash iv never seen anyone who has had every tatoo be absololutly perfect and look amazing. did you use the same artisit for each piece because they seem to be a very similar style. gorgeous work

[OxiTrash]

Most all my tattoos where done in the same shop Southtown Tattoo in my state of Arkansas :].. side from my leg which was started in my home stat of florida but that's pretty much a complete reconstructed cover up done by Eddie at southtown.. along with most all my piercings as well. So all credit to my work goes to them.. :]

The spine piece, which is not finished, is by Chris Allen @ Divine Machine Tattoo in Buffalo NY. It original concept is mine, which I had been developing for about two years.

The bottom tattoo "Zombies Are Scumbags" is by Geno (I no longer know what shop he works in) Unfortunatly, I wish I would've made a better choice on this one. I was blame it on 17 year old rebellion ^_^

The photography is by Ray Sopczuk

That is soo sweeet
I wish i could come up with something that creative!

[Killaya]

And here we have it!! My first tattoo <3
The outside circle is the Nine Inch Nails "Lights in the Sky" song logo, and the inside character is an om.

Picture taken immediately after it was done, and I was sitting at an odd angle so it's not the best, but I couldn't wait to show it off. I'll have better pics tomorrow after I remove the bandage.

[ANNloses]

I love your om!

OxiTrash, your armpit tattoo is wonderful.

[absolutebrutal]

oh go on then...
[i'm so pleased to see other ladys with My Ruin tattoos on here, btw!]

here is my half sleeve from the front:


and here it is from the back/underneath:


you used to be able to see the progress of me having it done on the myruin.com website, but the site is down now and they haven't started updating the new one yet.

[MrsEss]

[PrettyRaveGirl]

ok...my first one, my dad did it when i was 14 then i got it re-done for my 16th birthday...and i still don't like it *groans*


and my second, which i like a lot more haha. this was my 17th birthday pressie to myself...as i love all things Predator and my name means "famous woman warrior"...i thought this was appropriate =]


im in the middle of planning my 3rd and what will probably be my biggest. im thinking huuge feathery angel wings on my back...the planning is taking sooooo long but i know it's going to be worth it. and im also hoping for a half sleeve featuring lillies (my birthmonth flower) and a couple of other bits n bobs lol

OK - I'm sorry about this, and please don't flame me for it - but your dad tattooed you when you were 14???? I don't often get het up about things as I see myself as a fairly calm, and open-minded person, but this has got me quite riled. Tattooing is illegal under the age of 18, and I honestly think that people should wait until this age before going under the needle (perhaps this is another topic for the debate section?); but the fact that a family member flouted this law is quite shocking to me.

Again, I apologise for any offense caused by me saying this.

Actually i have found that most places YES you do have to be 18 to get a tattoo. BUT with a parent present or in some cases even a signature or phonecall, you can get one done as young as 12 years old.
