Tatoos?

[Spinach]

How many, where and what kind of artwork do you have?

I have 2 tatoos, actually my 2nd was added today, nothing special, just a cover up of another from a long time ago. My first is an image of Popeye, drinking a can of Budweiser and the letters U.S.N. under neath, this is on my upper right arm. I had this done when I was still in the Navy in 1988. My new one from today covers up another one from the early 90's. I'm not sure how to describe it, other than it was just an image that fit real nice over the old one.

All my work is done by Mike at A-1 Tatoo in Oakdale.

As soon as they both heal, i will take some pictures and show you all, i forgot to mention, i had the Popeye tat redone today, being that is was almost 20 years old, I wanted to bring him back to life.

Lets hear about yours and see some pics, if possible.

Only one so far but would like to have some more done. I have a Gargoyle on my left shoulder done at Bear Nasty Tattoos in Becker.

Here's my only one so far.  My next one will be a white tail with an arrow under it.  Each consecutive deer I get, I'll get an arrow or a bullet under it to show how I bagged it.

Thanks OJ.   :rock:  
Momma Grute was kinda (happily) surprised at my choice.  So I told her -- my first one should represent what is most important.  She replys "FIRST one?!?"  Yep.  She arranged us both getting inked as a Christmas gift "so she started it."  

By the way,  I got mine at Mitzy's in White Bear Lake.  Alice did the art work and Lana (her daughter) did the actual tattoo.

got my first one this winter (at age 42) of an awesome cross that is blended and shaded with a crown of thorns hanging from it...and my kids' initials at the bottom....

represents obviously Christ dying for me, but also the cross that I bear after weight loss surgery last summer and losing 170 lbs, I want to remember the cross that I bear the rest of my life....

Wanted a tat with meaning, waited 18 years for one I wanted

[icebanger]

big d that sounds like a great tat...congrats on losing the weight keep it up brother....icebanger

Added pics of my tats at the beginning of this thread. I'm going to add 1 or 2 more very soon, other upper arm and maybe a chest piece. The chest piece scares me though, besides the ribcage, thats about the worst spot for pain.... Anyone else have one on there chest?

How about we turn this into a contest? Who's interested?
