Nah I've been wanting stuff for like 4 years but can never manage to scrounge up the money to do so

 

Ahhh, that sucks. Someday though, right? ;)

 

Took this picture when I had my first tattoo done 2 and a half years ago. It's an eye piece done by Alex Grey for the album Lateralus by Tool.


The next piece I want to do on my back is from the album L'enfant Sauvage by Gojira, and the artwork is done by their drummer Mario Duplantier.

 

I can't seem to insert the image or link properly so I'll just upload it

 

Gonna be getting a Brand New tattoo on my back soon, and I want to get some lyrics with it. What are your suggestions?

(The design is the Devil and God characters minus the girl)

I was thinking about
"Died for you one time, but never again."

 

"Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face"

 

Or just get "yeah" tattooed. Haha

 

"it's coming to an end"

 

I was gonna leave it all in black and white and thinking about "Do you miss the blend of color she left in your black and white field?"

 

Cool idea. What about "takes a while to grow anything" ?

 

That's not a bad idea either. There are so many good choices. Ugh. I will share it once it is finished.

 

I say just put LP5 and be done with it

 

Started the removal process for two unnamed tats. Expensive and necessary.

 

Couldn't cover up?

 

Not on my fingers

 

Sounds painful

 

The method they are using puts a chemical under your skin that pushes out the ink as it heals. They remove the two top layers of skin in the process. I need to have it done twice.

I don't think I've ever felt pain like I did when I took off the bandages. It's cool though. Once they are healed up, I'll feel a lot better about it.

 

That sounds pretty rough, hope it turns out alright in the end

 

Modified my heart and got the Copeland tattoo this afternoon!

 

It bugs the hell out of me that I still can't come up with a Springsteen-related tattoo.

 

Should be finishing this up in a few weeks.

 

Looks so good!

What was the reference photo?

 

Amazing dude!

 

That's awesome, keep us posted. How many sessions do you think?
