New Years Ink

Well, as promised, I’ve got a picture up of my tattoo. I know I said “pictures” but I decided to only get one because A) I don’t see the point in taking multiple pictures of the same thing and B) this isn’t MySpace and one picture of a random body part is enough for anyone thank you kindly.

At any rate, here’s the picture. It’s based off a painting of the USS Constitution. I’ll post the side-by-side so you guys can have a comparison.

All in all I don’t think it was bad work for just over an hour in the chair. This was the first tattoo shop I’d ever been into that had TVs set up in the workspaces so you could watch a movie while the artist worked, very weird.

I like it, and I’ve already found out that if I flex my bicep it looks like the ship is running with full sails, so that’s always fun to show people. I’ve never had a tattoo that did tricks before. I’ve already had it compared to Little Pete’s tattoo of “Petunia” on ‘The Adventures of Pete & Pete‘.
