I FINALLY got a photoset together of all my (good) tattoos.  Some of these pictures are quite old (and from about 30 pounds ago so whatever) but I’m still quite happy with how everything’s turned out.

Oh yeah, this could possibly be NSFW because there’s a lot of skin/underwear showing.  No naughty bits.

L-R, top to bottom.  These aren’t chronological by any stretch of the imagination.

1. Sledgehammer - the banner reads “Saber es Poder” which loosely translated means “to know is to be able” or “knowledge is power.”  I spent a month in Argentina doing geology field work a few years ago and upon my arrival home, I got the sledge.  Homesickness is a bitch.

2. The Fine State of New Jersey is just that.  I’m Jersey born and raised and it means so much to me.  The banner text reads “My Ancestral Homeland,” a nod to the World/Inferno Friendship Society song of the same name.

3. My hot pink lobster is a bro tat with my best friend Claire in Scotland.  I got it when I was there a few years ago and she got hers a few days later.  Clearly, we’re awesome.

4. Teacup, my trilobite, may be my favorite.  Don’t tell anyone, though.  Teacup is also in a book, Science Ink.  Weird name, fabulous book.  And not just because I’m in it.

5. My wings are my first big piece and still my favorite.  I got these back in 2008 when steampunk wasn’t that ~*big*~ yet.  I didn’t know about it, at least.  These were my undergrad college graduation present to myself, a take on the Brownie fly-up ceremony.  It was all downhill from there.

6. Randy is my straight edge cobra.  I’m 25 and still edge (shock and awe, I know) and I’ve always kind of wanted a trad cobra.  The two seemed to fit quite well.

7. Jirachi is the start of my Pokémon leg sleeve that I’ll finish when I have money.  Which I hope is sooner rather than later.

8. Tattoo #10 is fresh today, hence the red.  I love the little Friday the 13th umbrellas and liked how cute and little it was.

I have two other tattoos, but they are very old, very stretched, and very probably going to be covered someday.

All pieces were done by Chuck at Revolver Tattoo in New Brunswick, NJ with the exception of the lobster (done by Raf at Yankee Tattoo in Dundee, Scotland) and the 13 umbrella (done by Evan at Revolver Tattoo, same as above.)
