Anyone have any good sites to get a basis of other tattoo designs? Ive been on tattoo.com and a few others. Noone has any celtic's i'm after. There either massive arse crosses or colour small ones. Apart from the one i found. Might have to get one drawn up. Part of the reason i want celtic is because it does relate to where some of my family were from which is pretty cool. When i went to Europe i was blown away by the designs of celtic symbols in churches and stuff ever since then when i was 10 i wanted one. Quick questions. I know going for jobs with VISABLE tats on forearms,etc usually gives a bad image. How do normal people react?? Some people look down on them obviously i just don't want to have a girlfriend and the first time the shirt comes off she flips at the sight of it. Any experiences with this? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Here ya go 304OVQ. And here is the Aussie flag for ya Unknown. Wish I had of gotten the Aussie flag bigger. Would have liked it to cover the whole back of my leg. But it was my first and I was on a budget The Aussie flag is meant to be ripping out of the skin. Hard to see. I was gonna get more done to it. Like extra rips and tears around it, but never got the chance. I will one day. Man the flash from that camera makes it look like I havn't been outside in years Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Some people look down on them obviously i just don't want to have a girlfriend and the first time the shirt comes off she flips at the sight of it. Any experiences with this? Both my tattos are covered when wearing clothes. I think this is the best way. Ned is covered perfectly by a shirt and the flag by the leg of my shorts. You would never know I had a tattoo untill I went for a swim. So job interviews are covered that way. Soon I will get that ned tatoo continued down my arm. I am getting a tomb stone with RIP DJC under it for a best mate of mine that died. All I need to do then is wear a long sleeve shirt to an interview And as for girls. I don't know one girl who has flipped out at my tattoos. My ex chick liked em. Many other girls I know love tatoos. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I�m not taking sides, if tats mean something to you, go for it... But you guys were saying how not everyone has the same tats and they are all appropriated etc... Then you go on to say that�s the exact same tat? Flaw in the argument I say...

Thanks guys for all your opinions, etc. Defiently keen on the design i posted. Will keep searching although if i still like after new years/summernats, etc i will bite the bullet and go for it. Can't believe it. Mum and Dad are actually supportative even though they have none themselves Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

the 3 symbols are Tae kwon and do which means: Tae - jumping or flying, to kick or smash with the foot. Kwon - to punch or destroy with the fist. Do - the "art" or "way" of. Literal Translation of Tae Kwon Do The art of self defence using your hands and feet. The reason i have this is i have been involved in TKD since i was around 6-7 years old and it means a great deal to me, major part of my life.

i hate how ppl get celtic and chinese tats e.t.c!! Love the idea of the made in australia tat, havent seen it but i reckon its one of the best ive heard of Honestly i wouldnt mind one, but i dont have the skin for it.. since 2 years ago when i started doing weights its became truth i have ****house skin as i have stretchmarks running ALLLL down my arms and its a mess, i always wanted some evil looking animal with big horns, like a ram or a bull on my back, but knowing my luck ill start to get stretch marks there and kill it then ill be stuck with something resembling an alien on my back. something like this ram pic below is exactly what i woulda liked tho Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Not really keen on tats anymore. Every **** has them these days... unless it's actually going to mean something to u I rekon they are common and lame. I have a mate who's sister passed away when she was only 3 and he has a huge picture of her on his back, looks absolutely awesome too.. but the point is it has meaning... Are you gonna look at the chinese symbols on ur arm in 50 years time and still like em? Doubt it...
