Forum MVP gr8fulpair Posted March 25, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I want to get my first GD related tattoo. I have a kokopelli on my leg that I had done on my 40th birthday. I want to get one of the two images shown below. I'm looking for advice, other ideas, size, placement, etc. Due to the permanence, I want to do some diligence beforehand. If you don't have any advice or ideas, just vote for your favorite image. If your advice is not to do it, save it, I can get that advice from my wife. Just the skeleton playing the violin and maybe the circle from this image. Just Bertha in the rectangle from this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP found Posted March 25, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I'd vote for the skeleton but I'm a sucker for Blues for Allah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP VincentPuleo Posted March 25, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Are you going to get a color tattoo or just black and white? I guess the most important thing is having a great artist. I've seen a few mis-proportioned Steal Your Faces... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP VincentPuleo Posted March 25, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I think Blues For Allah would be wild.. especially if the artist could create that image of space with the skeleton getting lost in it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted March 25, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I'd vote for Blues for Allah but I'm a sucker for the skeleton. How about the back of Mars Hotel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP FunkyBass13 Posted March 25, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I like em both but that Blues for Allah would look so sweet.................. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subcooler Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I'd vote for Blues for Allah but I'm a sucker for the skeleton. How about the back of Mars Hotel? Definately Blues for Allah ! I got the Banjo terp from Terrapin station (right arm, below shoulder)-Going for tamborine terp later this week. Be careful on placement, if your thinking of adding any other GD tattoos in the same area(1st terp. is centered & other one will be outta position somewhat !)-not a big deal as they will eventually be part of a ring around arm. Best wishes on your tattoo, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP GratefulFred Posted March 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 I have Blues For Allah on me. My friend just got a Fred tattoo yesterday. I'm pretty flattered by it. I think you should all get one of those. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Not a terribly picture of it, but this is my BfA. (And some of my others.)

Rusty the Scoob Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 how 'bout Rosebud?...or, what's his name? the do-da man? that faceless, invisible guy... You mean the guy in the green zoot suit? I never knew he had a name, but he rules. Hoping this will work, it's all I could find.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted March 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 I think he made a cameo appearance in the Grateful Dead movie. Now that could be the source for some serious ink... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
