Pics of your tats and the stories behind them

Here is one, this is about a year old now. story its my step-dads name. he raised me from the time i was 1.5 yrs old and was never able to adopt me so i figured this was the best i could do at the time.

got this towards the end of summer 07, had my buddy design and draw it for me..
obviously im catholic lol
but im also 100% lebanese, which explains the middle part, its the lebanese flag.
the writing says "the truth shall set you free", wish is one of my all time favorite quotes and mottos to live by..
 
Damn nice Killer!!
How long did it take you to complete those? I'm sure a few of them took more than one session........pain and sting give me pain and sting.
That's the way I probably would be if the wife would let me. She got pissed at the tiger one because it was too big and I had to sweet talk/compromise with the cross add on. She doesn't want me full of tats,but I like them. It's a form of art and yours are great.

P.S.
It's also nice putting a face to the name Killer.

Many years and many sittings, thanks so much for the compliments! As you can see i like the "Old School" look.

Again, thanks.

Great design. It's original and nobody else will have the same thing. Looks cool and another great tat!(bowdown)
 
Here is one that i got on my 25bday right after my daughter was born . I always wanted a back pc done . and my dragon wasnt cutting it anymore. the dragon needs to get redone so bad.

Nice work,but ya do need to get the dragon touched up to match the new work. The tat above my cross is about 11 years old. My guy reoutlined it cause it was faded so it would go along with the new one. The tiger I just had redone by the same guy. He does great work.
 
ive got 3 tattoos all with very personal meanings behind them. i love to show them off but i dont really like to get into details behind them. all three have to do with my thai background. the one on the back of my leg says "family" in thai and its written from top to bottem. then i have a two traditional thai figures on the back of my arms, guy on the left and the girl on the right. and my brother designed all three.

Don't know what to say,but hope they're not gang related.:confused:
 
haha, never been asked that. if you concider my family as a gang then i guess you could call me gang related.

ps i dont think you need to quote the whole post with the pics and all. i think ppl can conclude you were referring to me;)
 
Point taken
By the way I wasn't trying to affend you in any way. That was a stupid thing to say on my part.
