hey fellas, im gettin a tat on my elbow here in the next week or two and im havin just a hell of a time decidin on what im gonna get. i got it narrowed down to 2 things, either a chaos symbol or a spider web made of barb wire
I get tattoos to represent something in my life that…
will NEVER change until death
means something very deeply to me
is a powerful image and a strong reminder of the subject
Symbols - cartoons - skulls with flames - all that sort of crap is akin to drawing on yourself with a texta in high school, basically an attention grabber that will look pathetic as the years go by.
What the hell does a spiderweb on your elbow represent? That you’re turning into a superhero?

yeah i hear that. im not really relying on what anyone says, ultimately im gonna do what i feel, but i just kinda wanna see what people think.[/quote]
Cool.
In that case, if it were me, I would be getting the option in the second post. But that is partly becuase it would go great with my big flame covered dragon on my forearm.

I think that was 5c worth, sorry.[/quote]
actually all 5 tattoos i have thus far do represent significan events in my life. i have odin on my knuckles cuz its my middle name, i have the chinese symbol for 12 between my thumb and index finger for the hour i damn near died, that wreck greatly changed my life. i have a cross on my back with my deceased uncles name and dates above and under it, ive got a sun thats smiling on my shoulder to represent my attitude on tryin to stay positive even in darkest times, smile even when the lights not shining, then i have a tribal tat down my left arm basically to go over the scars that cover it.
that spider web that i showed above i designed about a year ago and my bro got it done before i could. the chaos symbol i like because its wicked looking and i think it shows the chaos thats been goin on my whole fucking life. i guess it was my dumbass mistake even making this post cuz i knew someone was gonna give me shit. like i said im gonna do what i feel is best for me and best represents me, but i just thought i would show you guys so when i get it i could show it off, but fuck that ill probably get trashed on anyway

Are there any tattoos that don’t have something to do with white supremacy??
Every time someone starts a thread asking for feeback on a tat someone has to reply “Don’t get that, people will think your a skinhead.”
