(Please excuse the redness, not really sure what that was, but it disappeared a day or so later).

is that ogham script or something?

This is my newest tattoo. It says Muay Thai in Thai. I'm really happy with it. As I'm getting older they seem to hurt more and more.

It's Sanskrit. They say "peace" or "tranquility" and "strength" or "power," depending on the context and translator.

Some very nice artwork here

I am not opposed to tattoos, in principle. I have just never seen one I like well enough to carry it to my grave.
I think tattoos fall under the heading of "Different Strokes..."
BTW, nice skin art, Silver.

Thank you Brother! I really should get around to posting photos of my other 2 as well as this thread seems to have sprung to life again, thank you all.

I have a bunch of tats. Arms sleeved, shoulders, chest, ribs, both lower legs done. I also got a brand done on my back. The ribs being tated was very painful compaired to anywhere else. The brand hurt less than a tat getting done, but heal up was alot worse than getting it done.I would like to get more tats but the prices are very high. Its $140.00 a hr. in Sacramento Ca. What is the cost every where else? I would like to know.

I pay around 250€/session, and I go for about 5hr-sessions.

Yup, the ribs hurt. I've had them done so many times... once for 9.5 hrs straight.

Our artists charge anywhere from $150/hr to $300+/hr. Unfortunately good tattoos aren't cheap and cheap tattoos aren't good.

here in Dallas, a clean and reputable shop will charge about that much for HALF an hour.
