I need inspiration. I have 2. I will have 3 by tomorrow. If they're not that identifying can I please see photos? Or descriptions?

More than happy to share - I love mine!
The Phoenix was after I split up with h and the tiger just because I finally found the right artist.
What have you got and what do you fancy?

Mungobungo · 02/02/2017 17:43

You're having a tattoo tomorrow but haven't decided on a design?
Is that a good idea?

I have two but both took a lot of thought, design and mean a lot to me. Perhaps you need to rebook when you e made a decision on what piece of art you're going to put on your body to keep forever.

SaorAlbaGuBrath · 02/02/2017 17:44

I'd agree with Mungobungo I spent a few years deciding what I wanted and making sure I was ready to have it on me permanently. It's a very personal one, which means something to me but isn't necessarily obvious to anyone else.

CharlieDimmocksbosoms · 02/02/2017 17:46

Ah don't worry Mungo I know what I'm having tomorrow! This is for next time Grin

gin I love your tiger. Is the black bird a Phoenix? I'm on my phone. It's hard to make out.

It is a Phoenix and is picked out in purple around the black although I don't think the pic does it justice. I also have a dragon on my hip but it's over 20 years old and is a little fuzzy round the edges Smile

GinismyTonic · 02/02/2017 17:51

So actually, that pic was prior to the purple!

charlievictor9 · 02/02/2017 18:05

This is my most recent on my thigh. I've got 7 altogether including a dreamcatcher on back of neck / upper back and the inevitable teenager-of-the-90s lower back tribal

They are mine. Second picture is terrible I know!

Stormwhale · 02/02/2017 18:17

The others are too identifying, but this is my butterfly on my shoulder.

Sorry for bad lighting and my cellulite :)

It was a coverup, I had a horrid faded thing that I stupidly had gotten in my teens and I'd hated it for years, I spents years trying to find a design I liked but in the end I just told the tattooist to do whatever he wanted, figuring worse can happen is I won't like it, but anything would look better than what it was covering.

I loved it the minute I saw it. I had planned to have it extended all the way down but honestly, the bit I had done hurt like fuck and I don't think I could do it again :)

GinismyTonic · 02/02/2017 18:23

I love these! They are so personal aren't they

ememem84 · 02/02/2017 18:24

This is mine.

These are most of mine, I've got another on the bottom of my back but I haven't got a decent pic of that.

Gin The tiger is amazing. I struggled to work out where it was to start with, I thought 'she's got funny legs' Blush

ApollO88 · 02/02/2017 18:33

Photo of my current WIP

GinismyTonic · 02/02/2017 18:34

Haha Kath! It was the most pain I've ever been in

Place marking. Shall come back later under a name change.

pictish · 02/02/2017 18:43

You need inspiration when you have a tattoo booked for tomorrow?

Way to go in getting some random nonsense you're going to end up wishing you'd not bothered with. Good one.
