I have 9 tattoo those are very old pics of my biggest ones when they were freshly done, I think they look nicer once they have settled down but I haven't got any more recent pics.
 
This is my most recent. Tattoo #9 ... took some working with the tattooist to get something that felt right but was close to what I had in my mind.

I love it. DOB is my grandma's who died in jan and was like a mum. <3

Love this thread :)
I've got quite a few and will get more. Next up will be to complete a 3/4 sleeve.
Love tattoos. Worked in a tattoo studio for 6 years and it was the most fascinating job ever.
You think you can stereotype people who has them done but you really can't!

Thanks! I'm looking for something really specific which is probably more of a mans tattoo! I want a realistic girl, modern look and in black and grey only. Want her to be sexy/sultry & be wearing lingerie, I have a really clear idea in my head but can't seem to find it!!

Find an artist you like and get them to design it. Always better than copying someone else's if you want it to be original.

I've got a modern day pinup on my leg. Tried to take a pic but it ended up very weird since I couldn't be bothered to get out of bed &#9786;
She is a bitch really..

That's a bit more like what I have in mind!

Yeah of course it would be designed for me and would be original but I'm trying to find some inspirational pics to help me explain to my tattooist exactly what I'm thinking!
 
This is on my rib at the side, it's the date I got married in numerals & the writing under means "May it last forever" xImageUploadedBySalonGeek1404334160.518597.jpg

I'm thinking of getting an elephant tattoo on my right rib. Has anyone got one? I'm looking at these 2 designs:

I think I like the second one best. It's more me I reckon. Any advice as this will be my first tattoo! :) x

Just my opinion but I would choose the first one. The second one looks a little too cartoony and I think a few years down the line you might regret it.
The first one to me looks more grown up and will not look out of place as you age.
Obviously it's a very individual thing and you need to go with what feels right for you as when it's done it's done.
I had a dolphin on my ankle when I was 16 ish. It was quite a small tattoo and have now ended up with a very large tattoo to enable to original one to be covered up. Just something to bear in mind when choosing that you will not regret it. I was young and never though I would regret it!! That was not the case. Haha.
Good luck with whichever design you choose. xxx

Thank you. I do really like the 1st as it is very nice and is grown up etc like you say but I just feel the second one compliments my personality better. I know people say you'll regret it when you're older but that's why I want it in a place I can cover up too. I was having this discussion last night and I don't ever regret things as I believe I make those decisions for a reason at those times. But that's just me I guess.

Any advice on pain relief as I'm a wimp and am fully aware it's going to be awful on ribs lol x
