Today seems to be a day for getting shit done

[sweetprince]

Remember how I said I was getting a tattoo? Well, I did. It also turned out much cheaper than I think any of us were expecting, so, HAPPY DAY.



My tattoo artist came up with a song along with Meredith something like "You're getting a tattoo, you're getting a tattoo, you're getting a tattoo...and it hurts." The other artists were like "SHUT UP KEITH."


This also randomly turned out to be the guy who does all of Rihanna's work, which incidentally I did not know until Misha looked his portfolio up. He had a new tattoo on his leg and I figured out when I looked at it that it was an umbrella and the letter R so clearly he had let Rihanna tattoo his leg. This turned out to be fact. He got in trouble.


And there it is, my heraldic bird. It's based off of John Tenniel illustrations from the original pressing of Alice and Wonderland, which yes, I know random, but I LOVE HIM, so.

Also, I'm curious how much it cost. And did it hurt? And how long did it take? DETAILS!

That's gorgeous!!! I love how it circles your wrist; really nice!!! I have mine in almost the same spot, but it doesn't come around like yours does! Beautiful!

You have a bird too? That's really awesome.

[immoralilly.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I debated for years, so I'm glad it culminated in something good.

[out-0f-habit.livejournal.com]

I love it!
I got my first tattoo a few months ago, and I've been dying for another one. It really is addictive.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Hahaha, my first thought was definitely WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT?

[hkath.livejournal.com]

That is SO AWESOME. I love the way the wings wrap around your wrist, too! Two totally different angles, it's almost like two tats in one :D

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Thank you! It's not as awesome as yours, dude!

[karmicunderpath.livejournal.com]

Thats so excellent! :D

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Right now, I'm definitely going through the HOLY SHIT I'M STUCK WITH THIS phase! But I'm sure in the morning I'm going to be happy.

[one-2-3-4.livejournal.com]

Gorgeous! Am so happy for you. Getting it colored/shaded in at all?

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Does it look unfinished? *sadface* No, it's supposed to be linework.

[rawkin-ur-sox.livejournal.com]

That is so cool! Love the idea and it turned out awesomely.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Thanks! I'm really quite fond of it.

[miss-begonia.livejournal.com]

That is so cool! I'm excited for you. And it'll be cool to see it when you're here in person.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

I STILL HAVEN'T SEEN YOURS. Also, when you went ahead and did it, I was like, WELL, now I have to.

[nasus221.livejournal.com]

Love it! It's so cool that it looks good in the far away picture and close up. Like someone could get a glance of it and not know what it was but still like how the pattern of it looks.

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Alot of people keep telling me they think it's a bracelet rather than a tattoo. :)

[elsmoka.livejournal.com]

That looks awesome!!!

[dark-reaction.livejournal.com]

Thank you!
