This is my first tattoo, I got it done at Carpe Diem in Macclesfield, England by a guy names Simon.
I took in my own design and asked him to do what he could with it to make it worthy of being tattooed on me. He got back to me a few days later with a picture of my tattoo I decided that day to go have it done, it took about 4 hours in total done in 2 sittings, I’m very happy with it and can’t wait to get more, hurt but so worth it.
My first piece done by Ryan Groebler at Stay True Tattoo in Dublin, CA
Second session, more to go. The animals in the roses represent my family members (elephant:mom, fish:dad, owl:sister). They surround passport stamps scanned right from my own passport (Turkey, Australia, Finland, Iceland).

This is an original design by my tattooist Nicola butler in the pretty hot and tattooed studio in Pencoed South Wales UK. She has done several of my pieces and they always turn out exactly how I want them.

second tattoo done by Yadie sanchez,
So these are my first two tattoos- most people seem a bit taken aback when I tell them that, because they’re such big pieces in very high-visibility locations (and I’m military to boot). But that was the idea. The roses on my left arm represent my wife and I (our last name is Rose), and I have ‘always’ written in her handwriting with it, because we’ve been in love for almost ten years now, and always will. I got the piece done in a watercolor style because it’s something I haven’t seen a lot of, and it really stuck out to me.
The lighthouse on my right arm represents the storm that is my life, and the stability that family and friends have always helped provide no matter how rough things got. No matter how crazy life gets, I know there are people who will help guide me in the right direction.
me, boba fett and my inker Luis Lopez, from Lima Perú.
In memory of my grandfather.
Done at Les Martyrs du Quai / Strasbourg / FRANCE by Freako Rodriguez
My boyfriend got this tattoo, this photo was taken only a few hours after it was done and there’s still one more session to go (the colour of shirt/skin etc).
It’s of Ash from the movie Evil Dead (1992) and has been his favourite movie for years.
This tattoo was done by Shep at Body Art Shop, Adelaide, Australia.

Just got this today at Chroma Tattoo in West Bloomfield, MI. I call it my “Escapist” tattoo because the idea was inspired by the song by Nightwish called Escapist. No matter where I am, whatever I am working on or doing, I always long for something bigger and better. I’ve always been a dreamer, and the song lyrics, by dealing with escaping reality into a fantasy paradise, were the perfect ingredients for a great first tattoo. Huge thanks to Jason James Benci, the artist who gave up his only day off this week, to make this masterpiece a part of me!
