Show off Your tats!

Jeff, who did that tattoo?

If I ever run into you, I will grab you in a choke hold and get an image, or should you grab me :main_evilgrin:

That tattoo has alot of meaning and that so ROCKS!!!!!

The guy that did it is Danny Craft from DNA Tattooing in Williamstown NJ on the Black Horse Pike. He used to work at Jersey Devil but opened up his own shop. I have been going to him since 1996. He is a good guy and a good friend :main_thumbsup:
I forgot to write why I got it. It is kind of a long story so I will shorten it the best I can. About 4 years ago my house caught on fire. I tried to get all my animals out while the house was burning. At one point when I was in front of the closet something exploded and blew the fire on me. I went to the hospital and almost died. I had to learn to walk and eat again. They bannana bagged me because they new I had a drinking problem and gave me meds and fluids and such to help me with the withdrawel. I came out of the hospital and had a few relapses where I would drink like at special occasions and such now I don't ever drink (super condensed version of this story).
I prayed and prayed to be able to stop drinking on my own to no avail. I honnestly beleive God gave me a TON of time to stop on my own. He IMO answered my prayers with the house fire and gave me the help I needed to stop. Reason 1 for the angel and demon.
I am a christian (although not always a very good one but I try) is reason 2 for wanting the angel/demon (something religious).
I incorporated mma in it as that is what I am into.
I had the angel winning in the sense that the good is winning in me now (at least fighting for me).
The angel demon fight also represents my good evil struggle that I have on a daily basis (as i am sure we all have, some more then others).
Anyways, the tattoo is very meaningful to me and makes sense why I got it when I break it down :main_thumbsup:

Here is one of mine! It's on my leg. I drew the basic design and my favorite artist ever who i had to move away from refined it for me.

I have another on my chest that is almost impossible to take a photo of, it's a line from a poem i wrote done in white ink. it looks a bit like a branding. it did very much right after i got it done. now that i've had it for 6 months it's to where it looks like a faint scar.

 

[nevinm]

the new one

 

[catvettech]

[nevinm]

Long story, but this is my best friend and I:

another one with the best friend:

another of my favorites, and kinda new:

(colorful area hehe)

I've also got this thingy on my back:

please excuse the freakish tan line, I wore a weird tank top without sunscreen one day. and i still have that darned tan line. grrrr.

I've also got a sun and a moon, on opposite arms, but I cant find pics at the moment. Eventually, the sun, moon, and star thing will be tied into one big piece

that's it, i think. lol
