Hey Bounce, that's the coolest necklace I've ever seen. What the hell is that thing on your arm? :shock:

I just have a friend who has that exact tattoo, so I was wondering if it were a specific cultural reference.

I once read that this is Larry's son and tattoo...but honestly, I don't know if that's true.

Either way. It's one of my favs.

Okay, that's easily my favorite Burn tattoo to date. :) I took a shot of the Man in 2008 from a few feet below with the same angle/perspective!

I've just been Informed of a pending pay raise. My boss rocks.
So with my new found wealth I've decided to get some ink done
Next week I am doing a back piece,
" We the People... " in Sepia in tribute to my true patriotic beliefs.

And A BM Tat on the back of my calf, so I'll be watching this thread fo shure.
I really like Bounce's Perhaps something like the City Grid ? dono. so many options.

And Way cool Tat Peterkabob, simple succulent and dare I say, Classy?

Post up some pics of your existing tats, and projected size. this would help any of us interested in helping you on your Idea. And perhaps some of your "Idea Sketches" as well.

I've been working on an Idea of mine I think it Involves the City Grid, I kinda want it to be a bit cryptic; intriguing to the muggels , yet recognized by Burners. I also like the Idea of the man from an unusual perspective, I may go as far as creating a 3-d CG model, and finding a good angle that way, then working it up into a sketch.
