Good place, that.

 

You must have a vague idea for what you might want.

 

Very vague.

 

I used to only want a word/s. As pictures are so likely to turn out horrible.

 

But then I realised symbols/symbolized pictures (that's not a phrase, but you know what I mean - i.e not trying to emulate a portrait or anything) could be nice.

 

So I thought I might get the X-Men "X" (in the circle). But wasn't sure.

 

Now I think I want something to do with Scotland. But dunno what. I hate everything I see when I investigated Scottish tattoos for ideas/inspiration. I'll come up with something when I'm back home in Edinburgh. There're certain streets that make me feel something I can't describe. I'll just stand on them until something comes to me that can visually sum up that feeling.

I would suggest looking at what Scotland means to you - I'm guessing home and stuff, say a certain memory that might have a good meaning for you to get something.

 

I'm still stuck on wanting to get a small gaming symbol behind my ear, but I think I might book in for my infinity symbol and magpies first, I've completely changed placement with those as I no longer want them on my feet. So that gives me more space.

What about the X-Men logo in blue and white.

 

Or Moira MacTaggart for stunning win/obscurity.

 

YES>! I've never considered.

 

"Muir Island Research Facility" just unassumingly on my arm. As though I was an escapee. Proteus 2.0.

 

I need to read my copies of the Proteus storyline (set in Edinburgh yesssyeyssys) and see if any images stun me.

Thanks guys, haha, will try - its the angle; it being on the side of my left bicep, so the tattoo curves around my arm. The back end features the same feather design of the feathers at the bottom - but will get a better shot. :)

 

Anyone from London; BRILLIANT tattoo artists near the centre point at West End, called 'A True Love'.

Back here again.

 

I need Mystique. She is everything. I hate photo-realism in tattoos since I fear shit-looking things, so I've been looking for tattoo-able images already made (though I will likely make my own alterations).

 

This is crying my name.

Lovely image, I'd change aspects were it to become a tattoo...I might like just the figure, but the Art Nouveau feel is because of the background. Not too bitty or detailed, just solid and colourful. Dunno if I'd have her with guns or not.

I've never got why girls seem to love having family members names on their bodies, especially like "Dad" or whatever on the back of their neck or somewhere...

Anyway, my point is: Are people so stupid they forget about sex when it comes to tattoos?...

 

Name tattoos are always a bit tricky, but if a person is so fickle to not have sex with someone who has a name tattoo...jeez.

 

:indeed:
