Branded... again.


It says "Loyalty". It's a very important word in my life.

It's not just external for I believe if you are loyal to your own beliefs then you can be stronger, faithful and above all happy within yourself. I see loyalty as a virtue.

OH MY! If I wasn't married, with four kids, fat and you know, female the things I would do to you with that tat...

swoon

I also have deep admiration and absolutely no understanding of putting yourself through that level of pain for body art.

Monty said...

OUCH! The redness looks painful! But I, like Kim, admire your courage in doing that, and in putting your beliefs out there! And I admire the quality itself - you are an inspiration Muz! Seriously!

Unlike Kim, I dont have four kids, am honed (hmmm.. ) and male. (ok married). Swoon Swoon.

Was it painful? Do you have other tats? And if so what and where.

Kookyknut: It's a custom font I put together in Illustrator. It's base font is Fette Furter then I added the flourishes by hand with the pen tool. I needed something a little unique. I'll show you the detail at your APEC BBQ. MMMMMmmmmm. Looking forward to that.

Dave: The flesh is willing!

Crystal: Unlike my other tattoos on the shoulders getting a tattoo in this position really bites. I can expect some bruising too.

CuteCTguy: I have a gargoil on the right sholder and a black ink pattern on the left shoulder.

Monty: Thanks buddy. :)

Kim: Thanks. I'm a pain junkie. That's why I work in Govt. ;)

OMG! You don't realise the lengths I'd go to, to sink my teeth into a sexy chunky bicep!!

I also really, REALLY want a tattoo - always have since travelling but I've never been able to decide what it is that I want, seeing as it's going to be with me forever.

How does one decide?

Great tattoo!!

MMMMmmmmmmuzbot.
Have you been in prison because that tatt is very prison like! It's also very sexy. A friend of mine got a tatoo on his bicep and he said it was a most painfull experience. He described it as being burnt with a hot iron and once you start with it there's no backing out, you just have to grit your teeth and go with it. Well done.

I totally agree...Loyalty is key. Great tatt!
