Thanked: 194You gotta see this :) Just got it, not a razor well literally that is but its close!!
I love straight razors and shaving and everything to do with it. I have wanted to get something like this done for ever, well today I finally took the the plunge. I do draw myself so I drew up a razor design with a saying that very much suits my life as well as my razors...enough talk here it is. A tattoo to show my love and dedication
The last pic with the ribbon around it with the saying "never a dull moment" is the one that I got. I am really sorry but I can't upload a pic of the real shot till 10:00 tonight. thats when the bandage is allowed to come off. these pics don't do the tattoo justice at all. It came out better than I could have ever imagined. A tiny drop of blood was supposed to be falling off the end of the blade but decided at the veryyy last second not to do it. but like the tattoo artist said, I can always add that on. Please share your comments, I would love to know what everyone thinks. It is located on my left forearm

Thanked: 194I most certainly will you have my word on that, I am kind of considering just quickly taking the bandage off for two seconds too get a really quick picture. I don't think it will cause any problems, if anyone thinks otherwise about that please let me know asap cuz i really want to get a pic of the actual finished tattoo for everyone here!

Leave the bandage on for the prescribed period of time. Usually 3 or more hours. It makes a difference in the healing and the final outcome. It will be there tomorrow for the picture. I like to leave mine bandaged overnight. YMMV.

I like it, clean lines and well proportioned. Looks good. I'm interested to see the completed tattoo.

Thanked: 1184Almost makes me want a tat. Will wait for the actual pic but I bet it's like you say. If I made custom razors I would make you an offer you couldn't refuse and I think the animated look of your design would look nice in real steel also.
Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

Thanked: 194Funny you say that because of the couple custom razors I have had mad for me the tattoo design I drew is based on one of the customs I own from one of our own members here at SRP. I did change it of course to make it my own but the inspiration came from the custom that Stu made for me from Australia
