my soon to be new tattoo
« on: July 02, 2010, 08:19:10 am »
a little info behind the tattoo
17 1/2- 18 hr surgery and my docs name is Chang and i called him and his crew the "the chang gang", I would have been dead in 6 months if i didnt have the surgery {hence the clock,} CAS is a friend of mine that drew the tatt for me.
being that my AN was 8 cm should i circle the 8 (its sort of covered) ?  any ideas ?
the tatt reads-
 I fear no reaper for I have seen the devil and sent him on his way, this eighth day of april 2007

Pretty cool..............I have a clown named Howard.  I got him after my house was burglarized and vandalized and my clown collection smashed beyond recognition...no one can mess this one up!  He's cute, orange hair, green plaid suit and big shoes!  I like tats with meaning

I agree, shrink the skull a bit. Looks a little scarey to me, but then I'm not a tattoo kind of gal.   ;D Where are the butterflies? :D

VERY cool, Satman!

Love the design - and the meaning.

IMO, all tattoos should have meaning to the "wearer" - without meaning I think tattoos are "fluff".

I think this is very cool and think it will be especially wonderful when people ask you what it means.  Won't it be a pleasure explaining it?! :D

I agree that the skull is a little big (even though I totally get why it is), but that is just me...DEFINITELY think that the 8 should stand out in some way!
