Imwould need like 5 pics to show off and explain my sleeves lol
There is an ipad/iphone app https://m.facebook.com/ArtAndSkinApp?_rdr to do a 3D capture of body art for viewing in their app. I've seen VIMEO videos of the results, and it's pretty cool. But, only for Apple devices, so unless they port it I'll never use it.

Re: TATTOO's... Lets see what ya got!!..

Started on my half sleeve last year. Got some of the fill in done since then, but I probably need about six more hours to complete it...

Got an addition to my sleeve today... little something the wife thought up for our daughter (she's getting it too after she is done nursing). She calls our daughter her "little star stuff" so it is a star that fell from the sky and sprouted. The numbers are her birthday Jan 10, 2015

Picked up a cameo of my beautiful wife Thursday evening by Sarah Hurst at Vivid Tattoo in Knoxville. She used a photo from our honeymoon (34 years ago) for reference.

Re: TATTOO's... Lets see what ya got!!..

I've got a couple. I'm a fan of black and white stuff for the most part.

I've had the grim reaper riding the skele-bike out of the graveyard for quite a few years. I wanted the old school black and white biker tattoo look vs. the modern super slick clean lines for that, so I had a 30 year veteran do it. The lower part of the tattoo was done by another artist later and I love the way it blended. It's as best a photo I could take of my own arm lol.

Not pictured is a large Misfits crimson ghost on my right upper arm. I played bass for 25 years and was inspired by Cliff Burton, so I got the same ink in the same spot as a tribute and thank you.

I'd like to get a small one of the Black Flag logo, but with pistons instead of the bars, and "gear head" in place of Black Flag. Meshes my love of bikes with punk.

Hospitals make me cover the ink when I'm working, but the fire departments don't care 8)

Re: TATTOO's... Lets see what ya got!!..

My only.

I've always loved dragonflies. When I decided to get a tattoo, I felt it would be a perfect first. Dragonflies are symbolic of seeing yourself for who you truly are (good and bad), doing away with self-created illusions and inhibitions. They are a symbol of self-awareness and self-discovery, as well as living life in the moment.
The meaning behind it is deeply personal to me.
I wear the dragonfly as a reminder of who I am and where I came from.
:)

Re: TATTOO's... Lets see what ya got!!..

The MS with the seams, is for Mississippi State, where I played college ball at.

The rest, is a scorpion of sorts. My nickname in pro ball was "The Silent Assassin." I was quiet, went out pitched, and didn't speak much during my starts. Scorpions, were used as silent assassins dating back to Egypt.

The guy that did it, freehanded it. Took a sharpie, made a few marks, and this is what resulted, almost seven hours later.

This is my favorite one, I have two poems that are near and dear on my thighs, a koi that covers the back of my left leg from the knee to nearly the ankle, four kanji around my ankles (these were the young, dumb, have some extra money ones), a cross on the left bicep, and an armband of flames on my left arm (I was a flame thrower, topped out at 99mph off the bump, could run it in to triple digits with a crow hop). I got that one the night before a game, that was a bad choice, my arm stung the entirety of the 8 and a third innings I pitched that day.
