Just talk about anything tattoo related here! May it be tattoo's you have, want to get, possible ideas, help for ideas, etc etc etc!
I'll start this off. Personally im not long turned 18 but im looking into getting a tattoo very very soon. I've had 3 different ideas in mind now for a few years so I guess ill start with those! Eventually I will get all 3.
1) Tree
-Location: Forearm or shoulder blade (not sure which one)
-Meaning: My dad was never around when I was growing up and my grandfather kind of took his place. Every time I think of my grandfather I think of a tree because he has always worked in the outdoors and my first ever job was with him planting tree's. That job helped me to grow as a person and I am thankful for him helping to mold me into the person I am today. It also symbolizes the amount of growing up I've had to do in the past year. Between graduating High School, joing the military reserves and finally starting to shape into a man.
2) Weeping Angel:
-Location: Top part of arm (shoulder)
-Meaning: In December one of my best friends committed suicide and he was the best guy in the world, nobody expected it. He was such an amazing guy that the day of his funeral it was a rainy, dark day out and I imagined that even the heavens we're crying for the loss of him. It also generally symbolizes everybody else I have and will loose in my life.
3) Something for my dogs
-Location: not entirely sure
-Meaning: My dogs are like my brothers to me. I have 2, one yellow lab (6 years old) and one chocolate lab (2 years old). They mean the world to me and coming home at the end of a long hard day when I get to see them always makes me smile. They truely are a mans best friend.
-This is the one I need the most help with. I dont want a portrait of them, I want something else. Im thinking a quote but if anybody can think of anything that would be great!
I'll post pics later!!! Also just tell which ones you think are the best ideas and add reccommendations and suggestions or w/e!
