Satman, dear,
Love the tat design! As a former T-shirt and graphic designer, I would flourish up the lettering a little--it's kind of cold. And you know me--I luuuuuurrrrves skulls!!! It would make a great story for LA INK--you should contact the show's casting producer here:
http://tlc.discovery.com/tv/la-ink/casting.htmlThey are always looking for unique stories and yours is one of the best. You are certainly a hero around here.
I love tattoos but have never gotten one as I always think of the Buffett song "A Permanent Reminder of a Temporary Feeling." However, having an 8cm AN is no temporary feeling! I have sworn to get inked for my 60th birthday--I want a leatherback sea turtle on my shoulder or upper arm as a reminder of my father, who passed away 12 years ago. We used to participate in the leatherback protection project on St Croix--guarding nests, measuring laying leatherbacks (which can weigh up to 2000 lbs) and releasing straggling hatchlings. The leatherback mamas come ashore under the full moon and the whole process is spectacular and ancient.
Send us a pic of your final design and the tat!
Hugs,
Capt Deb
