Wile e coyote’s arm coming out of my butt holding a sign that says “help”

My goal is poisonous plants, I wanna start with belladonna on my shoulder, but later I also wanna get some oleander, and I haven't decided what else yet for the other limbs. It's expensive though, so I haven't gotten any tattoos yet. Soon, I have plans.

I do my own (they suck on purpose & are NSFW) so i was thinking of doing more swear words down my leg or an area i can still cover up when in public

My first tattoo was done in a shack with a DIY tattoo kit ordered online.

Afterwards we had DIY beer made with a Mr. Beer kit ordered online.

Probably in winter. I get a tattoo or piercing almost every winter since it's the best time to heal

First one was a simple tree. I like trees.

Next one is going to be a possum dressed as a medieval knight with a lance riding on a snail.

I've been fleshing out some naturalist motif of a skull on a pike wrapped in ivy growths. Or on a staff. Maybe with a snake, in homage to the Rod of Asclepius. Figure it's a good forearm piece.

Or a bird. It always comes back to birds. There's just a bird for every feeling. A peregrine in a dive, a phoenix taking its throne, a blackbird living life, a raven brooding, an owl observing, a hawk soaring, a seagull eating French fries, a vulture scavenging, a hummingbird hovering, a parrot shouldered, so many options.

I do not have any tattoos yet, but if I start, my first one will be the text "Don't panic" in big friendly letters. Probably somewhere on my lower arm, for me to read if necessary.

Do you know the concept of kintsugi? It's a Japanese concept where when a dish breaks, you don't glue it back together with super glue. You glue it back together with gold. The dish is reformed, but its flaws are also on display as a thing of beauty.

Anyway, I know that gold is not necessarily something that would be conveyed well or stay that way in a tattoo.

But I am wanting a kintsugi pot with a bonsai tree growing out of it. The only color will be in the cracks or the pot. The rest I want in black and gray. I'm wanting it on my thigh.

Problem is I have been putting off getting more tattoos for the summer because you can't swim for like 3 weeks ish after getting one. But I'm a very impatient person!!

Next will be a pawprint of my now-deceased cat. She had a cool pattern of black and pink on one paw that I think would be a nice tattoo.

My goal is to have one memory of each of the important animals in my life tattooed somewhere. But tattoos are expensive, so it's an ongoing project.

It's the mark of one of the secret societies I'm in. For obvious reasons, I can't say more.

My first and only tattoo is Captain America’s shield with a ribbon flowing around it that says, “I’m with you ‘til the end of the line” on my right bicep.

I am a huge Cap fan and what he stands for (e.g., the Dream, people’s rights such as minorities and lgbtq, fighting gov corruption including the US). My son was also superhero obsessed as a kid and so the quote is something said in the movies between Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes (best friends) and it’s sort of my mantra and promise to my family along with the shared superhero enjoyment with my son.

Another I thought about was for my left bicep and the Mythosaur skull with Aurebesh writing that says “This is the way” with it split between top and bottom and curved around the skull.

If I could think of a really cool D&D one, I might do that as a DM and player.

I have no intention of getting a tattoo, but will probably have a number tattooed on my forearm when I get hauled away to the Woke Detention Camp.

I have a 4cm long scar on my forearm. I want to have Asmodeus from Redwall wrapped around my forearm with Matthias beheading him with Martin the Warrior's sword. The scar will be incorporated as the line of the sword strike.

Not sure what will be next.

Left upper arm shoulder I want to have a set of hexagons and they will look like they are being pulled away with an underwater scene being uncovered.

I also want to expand my back tattoo which is Diablo themed. Angels up high, the dammed down low, with demons, the undead, etcetera, etcetera being killed by some of the different playable characters in the series.

I have a couple names to add on to my right upper arm and some different sea life to my left lower leg.

Just need some money to be able to get it. It's the only thing I have ever seen that I would be 100% okay with inking onto my skin permanently.

If I had it in my mind back at BLFC, I might have already had it. I had money, and there was a parlor right in the hotel between the stages.

I've been thinking for almost two years about getting a severed hand holding a glowing gem; specifically, as told in The Silmarillion, Beren's hand holding the Silmaril Gil-Orestel, having been bitten off by Carcharoth, the great wolf that guarded the entrance to Morgoth's fortress Angband. later when the wolf was killed and his stomach cut open to retrieve the gem, his insides were burned and charred by the light of the Two Trees, that harmed any evil creature that touched it, but Beren's hand remained whole, still holding the Silmaril

the issue is it's a pretty specific custom design for my first one, and I don't seem to be able to find artists willing to even let clients see the design before sitting in the chair to have it done. I'm willing to pay for design services separately before booking an appointment to actually do it, but that doesn't seem to be how the industry operates

I have lots of tattoos and am in my dumb fun stuff era. My next is either going to be a Wild Rainier (Rainier beer bottle with legs used in their weird old commercials) with a shot of whiskey, or American trad animals on my kneecaps.

I have plans for a piece on my fore arm of a stylized 3 headed rat. There will be a fancy crown hovering over the arch of its back in blacklight ink so in the right setting it glows.

The Ratking is my favorite mythological creature, in myth they keep and deal in secrets as their rats work as spies. My favorite part though, is that the mythical Ratking is created the same way as the normal one, rats getting stuck together. It's that mythical from the mundane that I love so much.

It would be the Cheshire cat from Alice in wonderland. Guess why if you want, it could be very, amusing and most certainly be wrong.

I've always wanted something Boards of Canada related. But I can't commit myself. I have thought about it since I was 18, and I'm 36 now. That's half my life ago. Maybe I'll be able to convince myself I really want it soon.

My girlfriend has a lot of tattoos. I always get asked "Do you have any?". No I don't.

I've been thinking of getting a little calf (cow) tattoo on my calf (leg) so I can say "Yeah I have a little calf tattoo"

My grandmother loved cows, my grandfather loved ice cream. My other grandmother is from Finland, my other grandfather is from Mexico. So it would be a calf eating ice cream made from reindeer milk wearing a sombrero. Then it would represent all my grandparents.

Any more ideas to add would be welcomed. My girlfriend's favorite flower is a peony so I was also going to put that in there to help set the scene around it with some grass.

A menu that has only frogs on it.

I have wanted a larger piece for a while, an astronaut to memorialize my brother. There's an artist up the street from us that has a really interesting style but he's always booked. In the city there's an American traditional place that my wife and I have been to multiple times. I think I'll just wander in one day when I have nothing else to do lol

If I ever get a tattoo it needs to be physics or math related but I have no clue how it's possible to not be terribly cringe. Maybe a clever geometric argument/proof of something important in physics/math.

First tattoo. My dog, difficult because he's a Tibetan Terrier with lots of hair and I believe that's hard to draw, but I'll get it one day.

A star trek communicator badge. Still thorn between tng and coffee trek.

A full sleeve, front and back of the shoulder, with two intertwined dragons in viking-age mammen style.

Something dumb and stupid probably lmao. So far I have:

• A bandaid
• A bass clef
• The name of one of my favourite bands
• An open safety pin
• A capybara
• "it" underneath my knee (in my language it's the same as the "Dis"knee and "that"Knee joke except I ain't have a corporate bs tattoo on me)

I have an idea for the next one but my needles and ink have expired so I'm gonna have to wait till I have enough money to buy them fresh. It's something spongebob related tho

I started a sleeve dedicated to music. So far it's just a Staff with a Quarter Note, Whole Note, Quarter rest, and a triplet made of two eighth notes and a quarter note rotated -90°. It spells out LOVE. It's on my wrist.

Once I have some more money I will have the staff continue with as many bars as I can wind around my arm of the vocal sheet music of "O Death Where is Thy Sting?"

Then I will have all the instruments I can play added in the blank areas.

Then I'll work on my Space Sleeve.

I'm planning my next one will be a cybersigilism style tattoo with the text "keep moving forward". I struggle with depression and rumination, so this phrase would help me avoid thinking about the past so much. These are the ones I designed (I am an illustrator).

right arm goals: pixelated Charizard and Kirby and a minimalist solar system in color (blue Earth, Red Mars, etc).

Never tattooed in my biological existence, although I kind of... already tattooed something myself using... Let's say, an inkless manner... But sometimes I think of reinforcing it, which became a scar in my upper arm, through an actual tattoo, the name "לילית". I didn't do that yet for a few reasons:- I know no tattoo artist/professional, and I know this must be done with proper apparata- I know no tattoo artist/professional that would have the proper spiritual resonance- I'm not entirely certain She wants me to tattoo this specific name, for She has many names and She may decide to begin manifesting through other name and/or through other specific language (e.g. 𒀭𒊩𒆤𒇲). - Also financial reasons.I sometimes also think of tattooing Her seal/sigil and/or the crescent moon and/or an owl.!asklemmy@lemmy.world
