I've been lurking for quite a while and figured I should share mine...it's on my left forearm.

Looks great, Aaron! Any chance of a full sleeve photo? Congrats.
My tower tattoo. Yes it hurt, so well worth it though.

Very nice mrcooms. Very talented artist.
Hi all,
I've been browsing this forum for years looking for the perfect tattoo and finally decided to get my own...
So, it was the perfect occasion for me to suscribe and join you :-)
Here is my tattoo (first one). We worked quite a bit with my artist and I think he did a pretty good job....
That is just, well, freaking awesome and original! I love how you combined the rose, the universe/everything, and the turtle all into one tattoo. Fantastic!
Love it
Wish List:
Any of the following flatsigned or inscribed-
It, Shining, Salem’s Lot, Mr. Mercedes, The Stand
Brother ARC, Seed ARC
Thankee sai :-)
I actually wanted to have the turtle and the rose, and either the ka sign or the sigul. My artist was the one who suggested to use the rose as the turtle sheel and I thought it was brilliant... We ve then settled for the sigul as background and ive added the text as a link between the two pictures.
Took only 3 hours to make, was worth every second... i especially like the red and the shadows used on the rose. ho and yeah, the turtle seems to be the accepted representation of skollpda, so I thought it would be the perfect choice :-)
I like it a lot. Good job!
Thanks all. I am going to get KA, some Blaine tattoo (I haven't really seen many of those), turtle and some lettering too.
Blaine is a pain, and that is the truth.
Go then, there are other worlds than these.
Not sure what else, will be a work in progress for a while I think.
I design tattoos and I have two unrelated to King, but I've thought for a long time about getting an Oy tattoo... I've always loved King's work, but from the very first time I read about Oy, I just felt like he was something special. I actually began to collect raccoon stuff, because it was as close to Oy as I could imagine anything in our world. I looked through pretty much of the thread, but not all of it.... does anyone have Oy ink?
Dave (oythebrave) does. Rather special as I believe it's his Michael Whelan original.
I still love those tattoos, Clay!
I LOVE the Oy tat!! I think I'll get an Oy to celebrate after my husband and I start a family. We already plan to have an Oy/raccoon nursery theme, so I think the Oy ink will be appropriate.
I dreamed it one night, but I saw a turtle with the form of the Eye Of The Crimson King. Would you consider the Eye sigul to be a "warning" symbol as well as an icon of discord. Given that I sing with the Turtle Creek Chorale, have always wanted a turtle tattoo, and the Eye symbol is very nearly the shape of a turtle, do you think this could be used without the alliance to the Crimson King. I know it's just a bunch of books, but hey, I'm a GOOD guy.
The Ka and Eld symbols don't quite strike me in the same way as the Eye does.
