im getting and i dont know what it will be?!
A nice range of tattoos, good collection of simple and more detailed stores.
can you draw if so pm me
Why on earth would you tattoo a baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????!!!!!!!!!!
I thought the same thing. I hope its fake :(
Some great samples to get an idea for a tattoo. But always think before you ink!
well im only 16 and im getting my 1st one when im 18 its going to say chase the rainbow insted of taste the rainbow :)
Im trying to get a tattoo that will represent me an American woman who meet an mexican man from mexico that i would never think id mix with who picked me up &helped me change my lifelong addiction to drugs around& didn’t judge me and we had a beautiful son together who also picked me up as well as with jesus who also stood by side after all I did. So im looking 4 a tattoo that could represent all this &I am not creative at all so I was wondrring if theres any artists out there who could design me one incorporating all this? Can someone help?
I cant draw it, but how about the outline of a man and women half hugging and craddling a baby, there could be a slight hazing smoke around your heads which turns into a halo and there could be an eagle on your shoulder?
I had another look at this list as it had so many great designs, but what I did not notice first time around what their was a baby with a tattoo have to agree the above commenter on wondering why someone would get a tattoo on a baby-isn’t it best to wait until they get a fair bit older
Thanks for the awesome compilation of inspiration and for giving credit where it’s due! Great article :-)
“A tattoo design should be well researched…” What you have labled as a “Spider Chip Tattoo” is actually a squid. It’s the slightly modified company logo for Laughing Squid (the eye/mouth in the middle has been removed).
