    Remembrance Tattoo

    Hi Guys (and gals)

    Was thinking of adding another tattoo in remembrance of my mom.

    any thoughts or suggestions will help. this is my fav so far, but not sure where it would go. without the word ANGELS on it of coarse

    i got one when my mom passed also. get one that means something to you & only you-that will symbolize or make u think positively.

    I got the chinese symbol for strength- to help keep me mentally strong as well as physically...& reminds me how strong she was.

    well the only other areas that spring to mind would be forearm, or just above your belly button

    Yea bro, your runnin out of canvas! I think the design is sick, but it's hard to say how it would turn out after being drawn up (different colors and shading). I think it would look good on the chest if your ready to do that. If not, mabye the forearm like these guys said, but that would just be becasue you have no more room, not becasue of top choice. My boy got a large collage of an angel on the entire inside of his bicep (his dad passed), and it looked really good. Have them trace it out and throw it on the different areas and see which looks best.

    btw, your current work looks great, especially the right delt

    thanks.......there is the possibility of doing it on calves or side of calves, haven't gone there yet.

    I worry about forearms for professional reasons, so far I can cover up all the ink and look professional when needed but forearm would me long sleeves all the time and that just aint me

    Yo, SMAN, The only problem i see is that you might need a dark back ground for the mid section, under the wings, and face, and yellow is a hard color to maintain.. Also the eyes looking up might be a problem to see, i was thinking maybe to color it black/grey, but that might take away from the beauty of the tat and dedication.. You could also put it on you rib cage ( painful as a m/f'r ) For six months ive been looking for a tat for the same reason ( mom, dad, and my brother ) but im so sick of the dedication tat's... It is a beautiful Angel..

    yeah, i think i may have to break down and take the virginity of my chest and put ink on it!

    I thought about the colors stuball, and I figured it would have to be in black and greys...... I will have to take it to a tattoo shop and see what they think,

    let me know if you get it inked and show how it turned out !!

    The reason i ask for the picture was that it looked like a great dedication piece ( different ) But also a friend of mine wants to get a tat of an angel, ( thats his name ) but he or i cant find anything then i seen this.. If i find time tomorrow i'll shoot over to one of my guys he's only a couple of minutes from me.

    Your ex ???? Get a tatoo that you miss your ex, WTF are any future girlfriends or wife gonna think, IMO a very stupid idea..

    She died. So its not like she is running around some place and they have to worry.

    Would you think it was bad if it was a just a friend with that died?

    Oh sorry bro, no i think thats great idea... What you get has to be something you want and like, i woudnt let other people tell me how to dress no less tell me what kind of a tat to get.

    OK. I thought by the r.i.p. in my other post you knew that.

    I want something that reminds me of her. That why i was thinking the same tat "princess" but adding the miss you or rip. She had it on her shoulder so i was thinking the same spot.

    Calf would look good, I wont get anything that I cant cover in short sleeves and pants, never know where life will turn and what kind of job you'll need to get. But like DNOMAC said just have them put it different places till you find what YOU like best.

    No disrspect, when you said RIP, i though you wanted her dead, then you said miss you i though you were a little pissed and confused, once again sorry.. I personally like the idea of the same one she had in chinese.. And to me RIP looks like it belongs on a tombstone..IMO

    No need to be sorry bro. I guess i wasn't clear. I meant if there was a chinese symbol for R.I.P. If not I'll just stick with her tat. Maybe I'll go this weekend.

    I also like the ribcage idea like stuball suggested. Gixxer-I think RIP is a little raw, espeically if you put something like princess next to it.

    Im tired of the rest in peace, in loving memory, its played out, im thinking i would put Mom the date of birth and the date she died, but even thats overkill, i want to find a nice piece and put Mom, Dad and John ( my brother ) But ive learned i have to take my time, till im really sure..
