Well I just had work done on my huge side piece tattoo that I got. And I figured, we had a thread about peoples pets, which by the way was awesome they are all very cute, so I figured, why not have everyone show off their ink! I will make another post with my pictures attached, I have to get them off of myspace and take a new photo of my fresh ink, but while I do that, why don't some of you post yours and maybe the meaning/reason behind them? Sailors love their tattoos!! Lets have fun with this one!

Sorry no tats for me.
What are your plans with the ship, keeping it as is or adding color like the water?

Adding color to the whole thing. The clouds are going to be a purple/pink with lightening and who knows what hes doing for color on the ship. I love color, not that big a fan of just black and white

This one is a stylized letter "F" For my last name (Its how it looks when I sign my name). I am going to get it outlined like the skin has been pealed back, and the metal is what is under it. |

This was my first tat. It is how my last name is always pronounced, so it became a nic-name, and well, here you see it. |

And on my other arm is this one. It's a phoenix. It is there to remind me that when things get rough, shake it off and do what I have to do to get myself together and keep going, just like the phoenix, who when old and warn out, flies into a fire, to emerge refreshed, young and new.
The artist was not very good on this one, so it's not perfect, but I think it gives it character.
The pics are not the best, hard to take pictures of your own arms.
I would also like to mention that I draw my own art. No flash copies for this guy. |

OMG! Michelle I love the ship!!! Seriously, I've had the tattoo bug ever since the baby was born. I want to get another so dang bad and this just made it worse. I got 3...I'll post pics later on. I want to get another on my back sholder-Mae's birth flower is a rose so I was thinking an old style tattoo "art" theme with roses around an anchor-the anchor of course is for Marsh. I however LOVE black and grey...so thats probably the direction I'm going to go.

Lol its hard to shake the tattoo bug when you got it, isn't it Cassie? I like the idea of the roses and anchor. My buddy wants to continue the ship down part of my thigh with a compass rose or something. We'll see. This one hurts bad enough as it is lol. He eventually wants me to be one of his convention show girls but I told him only if its close to where i'm being stationed next lol. I'll post my others in the next few days. I just got home after driving 7 hours in the damn snow and still have to go get groceries. Virginia can not come fast enough!!

All your tatoos look great, but i've never seen a Coast Guard tatoo. Anyone have any? |

Thanks for all the great comments guys! I will be going through more sittings for it while I am on leave in March. Also, along with the ship, on March 2nd I will be getting a nautical star on the inside of each arm, red and green for port and starboard.
