Anybody on here had their eyeball tattooed? I've seen it on TV, not a fan I must admit. Do they just inject the eyeball?
The Fear
A Wise Man (once sat next to him)
Was talking with the tatooist the other day about it. It beggars belief really doesn't it? With that said, so do tattoos for some and it is each to their own. The guy said it was done differently, as you say more an injection. What is a worry is how will that be long term (ink can fade etc) plus if youngsters do it, then have to try to get jobs...
It was one that made me cringe I must admit but again, I am aware tattoos do that for others so again, each to their own.
The other one is the ear lobes that are stretched. I know villabrownie used to warn her students about that and visible tattoos (when you are young you think it is all fine but you are judged by how you look and if you can't cover tats it can mean you don't get certain jobs... it's getting better as the world is slightly less hung up on such things but still, it is something they don't seem to stop and think about)

Ear lobe stretching I can live with as long as it's only small. I have to admit I do watch the tattoo programme on CH4 that covers up embarrassing old tattoos. Great artists but not keen on the latest bright colours they use.

Yes, must admit I have stopped watching that and also another conversation I had at the tattooist this week who agreed with my assessment. They cover ups aren't particularly good. Also, some of them once they settled you'd still see the old one plus others apparently they'll have been sent away to have laser removal first, I tend to agree that might well happen. I've one black tattoo covered with a bigger one and at times you can see the first one (for me where it is it doesn't actually matter and only shows in certain lights!)
Must admit I love some of the newer watercolour looking tattoos, not for me but still lovely bits of art.

I'm a huge fan of tattoos, as I'm sure you are.
I heard a rumour through a friend at MI6 that Kefkat's got a new one. I'm sure it's another work of art, as all tattoos are. I'm sure I can speak for everyone when I say that we'd all love to see it.
Come on, Kefkat, get yer tats out for the lads.

The last one I got was of Bacuna but I'm not that happy with it. I probably should have gone to a professional.

That McGregor king monkey chest tattoo is going to look great on you.

I didn't end up having the lion; my transfer from DLA to PIPS arrived. I just couldn't warrant spending over £200 at this time on it.
You just never know how it is going to go with them now and holding on to every penny I can incase we have to go to appeal.
I will win the appeal as it's in law I am entitled to it however given the way the assessors are behaving I am being cautious.
Anyway back to tattoo's. I did have a small one done, which is attached. I shall be having the lion done once monies are confirmed as transfer done with no appeal.
Yes I will post it them. Meanwhile meet Tinkerbell

That looks like a great tattoo.
You know, you can get them done for next to nothing if you have an artistic mate. Don't get my cousin though. He fooked up my Bacuna. It looks like a golly wog. What are they teaching these fools in GCSE Art?

LOL your tattoo took me back to the days of ''The Black & White Minstrel Show''
You best be careful who you show that tattoo too! It could lend you in trouble with Bacuna legal
A good friend daughter did do some of my tattoo's a few years ago. She was mobile and really good at it. However she got into fitness and trained as a dance and zumba teacher. That has taken over her life now so had to find a new tattooist which has been a pain

What do you mean, Kef? Bacuna legal? You can't sue someone for getting a tattoo.
My cousin reckons he fucked up the nose but he thinks he can fix it. Hopefully it will be much better soon.
