In my absence I've been working my ass off, I barely making it to RHPS and getting my second and third tattoos. I know they are small but I really love them. Recently I got into a car accident, rear-ending someone in bumper to bumper traffic. Don't worry I'm alright but my car is currently at the shop since the poor thing was towed away, radiator fluid leaking all over the road. I'm super excited for the new year and I can't wait to see what it brings. Hopefully this accident was a bad omen and 2014 is far better than how 2013 treated me. O.o
These really mean a lot to me and I hope you enjoy them!
This one is my first tattoo. To all you folks who didn't read newspaper comics in the 80's this is Opus, the anxious penguin from Bloom County. Honestly this has to be my "mom" tattoo. She rarely finds comics she likes and is very much like the character in personality. I love her to death and made sure this painstakingly 45 mins to do this because I wouldn't stop squirming is to show her I love her and think about her every day. Even if I donn't always show it. :)
These two I got for a bundle. Both are my fandoms, one is a very subtle homage to the great John Hughes while the other is nostalgia. I LOVE Hughes movies, they were the best way for me to prepare/ experience High School growing up. I was a loner and it help to know Molly Ringwald had just as many problems as I did.
I also watch a LOT of disney and after the realization my first tattoo ruined any chance I might have had to be a face character, I said screw it and got that one. I know it's a crappy picture but It's in this really awesome shade of purple and Tinkerbell is dotting the "I" with pixie dust, just like in the old days. I know I could've gone with a subtler tattoo but I couldn't find anything that expressed ALL of disney not just the parks(which I've never been to,) the animated features, the Classics like Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Homeward bound, and everything that has happened since a young Walt decided he was fond of a little sketching in his free time.
I promise once everything settles I'll start posting again.
