    Tattoos are pretty much the only time I'm jealous of my lighter skinned bretheren. Colors really pop on lighter skin!

    Got some more ink done tonight. Really happy with how it turned out. New (to me) artist and first ink I've had done in years.

    Is this true, or just another internet lie? Sounds super fishy to me, but I admit to knowing nothing on the topic. Figured I'd ask the experts.

    Try reading this to see if you get a suitable answer.

    If you TLDR, the short answer is that post is internet horse poo

    Not exactly that, but I've seen plenty of tattoos that are exposed to sun. That's why I figured that post was hokum. That didn't look like a burn, either. Looked like some creative photoshop.

    Haven’t gotten a tattoo in over 10 years. When the time is right I’ll add to what I have.

    I have/had a tribal skull on the back of my right leg just above my ankle I got it a long time ago when tribal was cool.
    If it ever really was....:eek2:

    I've had 2 removal sessions over the last several years.
    Probably need one more to completely remove it..
    But the older I get, my splotchy old man skin seems to help it fade away..

    You can just see the skull face and tribal top.
    It is also off-center..

    Here is a better, or worse, pic.

    t7u6f8ch_d511557be0364a8b71c8da57e5b0c1b50e82a0ed.jpg

    I have another tat on my left ankle of a bar, The Bone, I used to go to in Deep Ellum.

    I'd like to get it removed as well.
    I'm WAY OVER having lower leg and ankle tattoos..:eek2:

    Speaking of tribal covers, I have a few.
    I can't remember what I have and haven't posted on this thread.
    I can't remember what I might have posted on the forum yesterday..:eek:

    I got this 'dream catcher' looking cow skull feather tribal what the fuck was I thinking a long time ago.
    The only tattoo I ever got from a woman artist.
    She isn't to blame, she gave me what I asked for..

    100_0170_17cb67ffac8c8b97095f74da4c806c8ce68e5c61.jpg

    My last tattoo was a cover of it I got in Hawaii.
    Actually the guy that did my first tattoo, Robert Hackney, did my last tattoo a few years ago in shops almost 4K miles and 40 years apart.
    My first tat was an armadillo with a star on its back that looked like a rat, I got it in Tyler Texas in probably 1979.
    I clearly remember him saying 'are you sure you want this?'.
    I got another 1 or 2 tats in my late teens.

    I didn't start getting tats again until I was in my 30s.
    Robert had moved to Dallas and I found him quite by accident.
    I went into a shop to get the rat covered (didn't want my kids to see it) and he was working in that shop.
    He covered the rat/armadillo with a flash black/purple rose.
    He then did a lot of work for me over the years, including some stuff with my kid's names.

    Her first concert, of hundreds we've been to, was Green Day on the American Idiot tour.

    alexistatcrop_45e0559b47781974631fcef6f9ab5287f36a8c80.jpg

    My son drew this face when he was 9 or 10 or so.

    zachtatcrop_b93f41ff26c0c706e811d19145861bc8ee57373a.jpg

    Every year Robert used to take a month off and go to Hawaii to work and eventually moved there.
    When we went to Honolulu a few years ago I looked him up and had him cover the cow head..

    IMG_1966_4099f1c4bcd423e526388806a8a1b4fb415f5c45.jpg

    Sorry if I posted this before, I know I posted the kid stuff a while back...:cool:

    Love the ink journal man. Tats are little snapshots of our lives. A wise man once said "No ragrets"

    That's what mine are..
    This and that from 60 years..

    My son did it differently, he has sleeves on both arms that each has a theme that he planned out.
    Paid one of Dallas' better artists, Liz Cook, to do them, she is very picky about her work.

    Although I did take him to get his first tat, took daughter for her first too.

    He had a favorite band called Sleeper Agent.
    They would actually all hang out when he would go see them.
    His first tat was the logo stencil from their stage equipment, sounds like something I would do.

    photo4_zpsb5fe1ff3_520f7cdd25a6a830bd4afdd4bc38170e5e53d938.jpg

    Daughter's first tat, she has gotten several since..

    photo2_zpscf1e83ed_a391449e83709b61cb2464ad5bddc3d3cc828898.jpg


    I need to get him to send me some pics so I can post them here.
    He is taking me, his mom, and his sister to Twenty One Pilots tonight in Dallas.
    It will be the 5th time he and I have seen them and the first concert that he bought the tickets for..
    I'll get pics and show his tats off here..

    1st session done. Outlining and a little shading
    2 will be more shading and I believe she’ll start the other piece to tie it all together

    I was just about to ask what y’all are paying.

    My last tattoo was 8 years ago. Back then it was $100/hr. When I went this time I almost had a heart attack bc I didn’t ask cost before hand and it was now $180/hr!
