And here's my new Tattoo!

Recommended Posts

Okay, so I go to San Antonio on business and since I'm coming into town, who do I call for some nig-noggery? Jessica, of course!

During our call I mention that I had always wanted a tattoo but never got around to it. After much grumbling from the other side I gave it some more thought over the next few days.

See...the issue was that I knew I wanted one, I just needed the right design. Then it hit me! It was perfect, but could it be drawn...

So, I basically checked every review of every tat shop I could find in SA and ended up at Dandyland Tattoo last Saturday to meet with an artist and discuss the design. There, I met Brandi. 85 pounds soaking wet and one of the coolest women a guy could meet. She assured me she could pull it off and set my appointment for 1:30 on Wednesday (yesterday).

So, with Jessica in tow, I headed to the shop for my first tattoo. This place is really nice and the staff put me at ease pretty quickly. I met with Brandi and she showed me what she had come up with. It was perfect! She gave me the price, I paid, and back we went.

Brandi gave me the tour of her area, showed me the equipment she would be using, that it was one-time-use sterilized by autoclave...etc.

So, she starts. I'm not going to lie, the shading wasn't bad, the outline on the other hand...well, that fucking hurt. I thought the outside of my calf would be nice & fleshy...apparently, not fleshy enough.;)

I never looked to see how she was doing, I waited until she announced it complete. Wow...I was impressed.

Now, here it is!

So why does that canopy have 10 cells? :S



Haven't been counting long, have we?;) Count again. It's the same color pattern that I have on my Stiletto. I was very clear on that part when I had it designed.

I liked this design better. The looks on their faces along with both of them under the same canopy just really grabbed me.:)

It's behind Calvin & Hobbes


No, I was originally going to have them in a two-stack with Hobbes flashing the peace sign. That's the Kanjii for "Tranquility". I thought it appropriate.B|

Noice! That's a nice tat. Now take care of it as it heals and it'll look good for a long time.

Next one you get, I've got to introduce you to my tattoo artist. He's fucking AWESOME! B|

What he said.

Accelerate hard to get them looking, then slam on the fronts and rollright beside the car, hanging the back wheel at eye level for a few seconds. Guaranteed reaction- Dave Sonsky

Hey there Little woman. Did you think sticking needles in your body tickled. :P

Seriously depending on where you get it depends on how much it will hurt. A boobie will hurt real bad. B|

A better person to ask would be Chuck though. Then again he has learned t o ignore pain as I have so who knows.

Anyway Watcha getting? Is it going to have Blue in it? ;)

The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!

My sentiments exactly...[:/]
You can get a lot more done with a kind word and a gun than with a kind word alone.
