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?

I had mine done purely for camouflage but I'm quite fond of it. Smile

Tattoonamechange that is absolutely beautiful! I'd love a mandala.

PixieMiss · 03/02/2017 21:12

I would love some watercolour artist recommendations please!

I've got my kids names in Morse code, kinda in a spiral? V identifying so no pic but I love it!

Mine was done by Jason Adelinia and Lianne Moule is amazing and worth a look. I am booking myself in with her soon

Tattoonamechange · 03/02/2017 21:27

Browneyedlady, thank you! It's much sharper in real life, done by the wonderful Pinky at Cosmic tattoos, Essex

Dragonglass · 03/02/2017 21:42

I've got 6 and I'm planning my next one. Ten years ago I would have been horrified at the idea of having 1! Here are 3.

This thread has just sent me down a spiralling tattoo rabbit hole Grin

I currently have two tattoos which I had when I was 18 and they are not visible unless pretty much naked (on my hip and lower stomach).

Now I'm thinking that after my wedding I'm going to get some serious tattoo game going....

My fave designs so far below.

I also would like a quote or two...faves so far are:

"Beware, I am fearless, and therefore powerful"

and "Aut Viam Invenium Aut Faciam" which means "I shall either find a way or make one"

Cara
then why are you on a thread where people are discussing tats and showing them off?
Kind of waste of time isnt it?
Nobody cares what you think of them anyway."

Cool. I am on the thread just to look.

QueenieMum · 03/02/2017 22:23

My one and only, for my babies who didn't make it

Queenie that's really beautiful Flowers

QueenieMum · 03/02/2017 22:33

Thanks Bluebird. I never 'got' tattoos until I had one and I love it.

BatShitTat · 03/02/2017 22:39

This is my latest one. It's the first bit of a sleeve so I can't wait to have more blue in the background and let it really stand out!

Name changed! This is my phoenix, with peonies just poking up from my arse, and García Lorca's signature, plus a bit of Art Deco lady on the left.

Willow2016 · 03/02/2017 22:47

Cara -
Cool. I am on the thread just to look.

Bollocks!
Just looking doesnt include sarcastic remarks. Get over yourself.

BabyTheCaveLion · 03/02/2017 22:48

Thanks everyone Smile

Brighton and pixie - I got mine done in Shoreditch 5th Dimension Tattoos by a lady called Souz

Willow2016 · 03/02/2017 22:49

Queenie
Thats so beautiful. So sorry for your loss. Flowers

BabyTheCaveLion · 03/02/2017 22:51

I bloody love these threads, I'm a wimp so live vicariously through others. I can get lost for hours on tattoo websites.

Cara, likes to bitchplop, from what I've seen. Sad really.

Kenworthington · 03/02/2017 23:15

I've got lots and lots but yesterday I had this done. I LOVE it. It's on my right forearm btw

Thank you Willow

bellabelly · 03/02/2017 23:27

I don't have any tattoos but I've always kind of wanted one. Love seeing all of yours - they're fab! I especially like the watercolour ones - didn't know that was a thing. I might be tempted to get one... do they really hurt? If you're a wuss like me, where's the least painful area to get a small one done?

millymae · 03/02/2017 23:29

I haven't got any but I love the flower ones - your roses are beautiful Lorelai
