I'm in the illuminati

*but seriously, I used to be real into graffiti when I was younger and would sleep all day and then go out and paint at night. I liked the idea of owls having the same mentality and became fascinated with them. So that's why I have an owl tattoo

Now I see why you commented about loving the Hannya mask 3D printed cap I did a while back (at least I think it was you).

On an unrelated note, does anyone know someone who does good tattoo art for tattoo artists to work from?  I want another tattoo and have and idea of what I want, but cannot draw worth a damn.  I've wanted a Don Quixote windmill esque tatoo (I know, it's trite) with an ivory tower instead of a windmill now for a while.  It's kind of a reminder to me about how ****ed up and terrible academia can be.  After getting my M.A. and leaving the program, I realized that academia can be my windmill dragon.

Since I'm straight, I don't like to interact with anyone else's penis anyways.

I may kiss a dude if I'm drunk and egged on, but no tongue and no penis action, dammit.

Stop being so suburban

Stop being so suburban

I'm white and grew up in a middle class family.  It's my birthright.  I don't think the hood or rich people will adopt me at this point.

Back on tattoos, anyone have any good ideas for tramp stamps for demik?

Hey! That was me! Yep. Tattoo Artists should be able to draw it themselves. My artist was inspired by Shige.

[nubbinator]

They should, but I like to go in with an idea of what I'd like.  Sometimes you find an artist whose style you like, but he draws a mock up and you hate it.

That is forsure! Thats why I have stuck with my artist for years now.

My Ubuntu tattoo.

That's great! I have an apple logo and a Microsoft power button. I'd love Ubuntu. Thought of getting it before.

I got this done tonight in a 2.5 hour session. It was a mistake to make my first tattoo a rib tattoo (last 20 minutes were brutal).

Sick mascara brushes akimbro. And props for a 2.5 hour rib session. That looks hella painful.

Rad dude! I have my ribs and most I could handle was 2 hours each session. Knees may be the only spot that was worse...

Sweet ink Akimbro! The best part of getting a tat is when the artist cleans the tat with that feel-good stuff at the end, lol...feels so good. Go grab a beer!

Is that what it is? I have no idea.

Green Soap and A & D is what most use.


Aftercare, Fragrance Free Lotion. I use Eucerin.

Witchhazel is what they put on you at the end to reduce swelling and redness.

I'm using H2Ocean right now for aftercare.
