    I hear George might have some new ink.

    Can anyone confirm the logo above on George’s left bicep?

    HAHAHA. HAHA. Naw, not quite :D

    I got a celtic design on my right arm.... To celebrate the Irish and Welsh in me.

    Not quite as detailed or cool as my coffins on my back, but still cool.

    I was thinking about getting the eye of horus on my upper arm. I'm still not sure though.

    My wife and I are going to Curacao in May. We have a 4 hour layover in Miami. She joked that we should go to Miami Ink and get inked during our layover. I don't think we'd have the time though.

    You don't just "walk in" and get inked at Miami Ink.. You have to submit your plans and pay them a non-refundable consulting fee, and if they decide to do your tat THEN you arrange to come in and have it done!

    You'll get far better results from a local shop you can trust anyways.

    Preferably go to a shop that does custom work only. The place that did my coffins will not let you say "I want this one" from their portfolio book, and he got everything about them the way I wanted. Took a few times for it to be right, but it's right.

    I'm the one that has to live with it after all :D

    Hey Modly,
    Is all of that "ink" what makes you so smart about these Toughbooks?

    Doubt it. :D I'd aim the answer closer to my lack of social life and/or girlfriends. :eek:

    During this season it also has to do with the cold weather that makes me stay inside more.

    Maybe when I'm not so cold that I'm wearing 20 layers, and it heals I'll post up photos :D (It's at the scabbing stage)

    My brother is now 2 square inches away from a half sleeve, so he's more inked than I am in a concentrated area. His latest is a dagger that appears to have cut through his skin and comes back out, and the point is just above his elbow. Looks really cool.

    Mine is still healing, so it'll still be a few days to post up pictures, but I do enjoy it. I see a few areas that it'll need to get touched up though, but shading that large of an area isn't easy.

    That's my brother's ink, I've only got one on my arm :D

    The rest of my stuff is on my back, but I can't seem to take a picture of that worth hell, but I've got some really nice looking coffins back there.
