My tattoo days were retired decades ago. I just admire other people's ink now.

I think I'm probably too old to have any more now but never say never.

The watch, of course, is my D-Blue which feels incredibly weird on my right arm in the second shot
Looking absolutely amazing my friend!!! Love tattoos with solid background life experiences! Come over to VN and I will get you covered Don't tell the Misses

I can't recall ever hearing anyone get upset discussing tattoos. Whereas that other topic rankles some people to no end. Let's leave the rancor to forums not named TRF.

Not sure how Tattoos = Guns but okay (for the record I have both lol, so I have 0 problem with either.) Are you trying to say something about Tattoos?

Congrats to all who have made the commitment.

I have something similar on my shoulder made 30 years ago.

I have no tattoos. My wife has 2, one came with her and the other is a Celtic cross tramp stamp (can I say that when it is on my wife??). Very basic.

This may be not cool to ask and if so, just say something. But something like that sleeve that LazyDaniel has above. With the amazing color and rather large. How long would that take? And what the heck would that cost?? I know it probably depends on who does it and how famous/good they are. But ballpark?

I have had a tattoo drawn up since 2000 when I lost my mom to cancer. I have never had it done. It will be my midlife crisis in a few years.

Your watches and your ink?

Personally I'm not into tattoos and I tried to dissuade my cousin from getting a Rolex tattoo.

Amazing work. Who did that? I ask because I've got a 3/4 sleeve done by the Japanese master Horimitsu and yours certainly looks like it was done by someone from the Horitoshi family. What I mean to say is that is LEGIT!
