I adore bird tattoos. This one made me spill my tea :eek: well done, it's gorgeous.

Realised my new phone has a camera so here's mine.

About 8 years old and I still absolutely love this.

I realise there's a lot of flaws with this and I reackon I'll probably get this covered up at some stage.

I know this is not a great tattoo especially when compared to a lot I have seen in this thread but I got it for my own reasons based on the above pic and am really happy with it(itching aside)

Wait till next year when I (hopefully) blow you away with my jungle based sleeve.

Thanks everyone who has posted tats in this:D

Having seen this in the flesh (Hi Uncy Viv!:D) I can safely say the pictures don't do it justice. Each of the feathers has a petroly/oily look to it - it's a brilliant piece of work.

This was my first that I got in jmd's in waterford by joe. I was just a tribal design from a t-shirt that i liked. No special meaning or anything just liked it and wanted a tat

And then these are one or two stages of a rib piece i got done by sammy in swineline in waterford. Hurt like a bitch but delighted i went through with it.
Got both done a few years ago. Leg about 8 and the ribs about 5 I think.

Rich11 · 01-09-2012 3:16pm

my new tattoo, one more sitting to go and, its on my ribs woooooo hooooooo;), and a bit above the star aswell, hopefully get it done tomorrow, depends how hungover i am in the morning:D

16mm plugs... Absolutely love them... And my scaffold... Still haven't changed it since I put it in! I got the jewelry from BAF! I'll post other ones when I get pics of them! :-D

Thanks a million to Stefan in Wildcat (Jervis). He's been brilliant for this. Just one sitting left to go.

Got this done the other day, its a quote from my favorite book, excuse the armpit hair.

My tattoo i got 4 months ago. Its a family tattoo where each symbol represents a person i care about. Motorbike represents my dad, the flowers my mum, music notes my sister and the hearts my fiance. With the quote " you are my strength" in the middle cause its true

Saw those on Facebook today. Very impressive! What's the going rate from Ching?

Well after months of planning to get a tattoo, I finally did it. I initially went to just to get a quote and ask a few questions. When I asked if I needed to make an appointment, the tattoo artist said, he had an hour free straight away................ so no time like the present!
Here is the tatto just after it was completed (last Friday). The artist is Michael in Wild Cat Ink in the Stephen's Green Centre. I am very pleased with the results. I put the design together myself on photoshop.

Has been about 3 years since I got anything that wasn't a touch up, finally booked in for the end of this month to get some fresh ink and I can't fooking wait now
