    Pricey?

    It was £400 and he done it it 3 hours. I showed it to Joe Myler in JMDs who had his back piece done by Louis and he was amazed at how quick he did my phoenix. Also, my appointment had to be bumped up due to louis obligation to do London ink at the time so they ended up paying for my flight over. I want to get my next one done off either Chris Garver or Brandon Bond.

    Hello!

    New to this forum! Both my tattoos were done by Brenda Kelly in Impulse Tattoo, Maynooth. I think she's brilliant!!

    First tattoo of a butterfly

    Looks really good so far! Really interesting use of colour, I'd be well chuffed.

    It's the DHARMA Initiative logo for the Swan Station, not "the thing" ;) And it represents and depicts a hell of a lot more than that too.

    I see many more uses of that phrase in your future, each one slightly more exasperated than the last :D

    Tell me about it!:rolleyes:

    "Ohh, its from that silly tv show, that's a bit foolish of you, don't you think?"

    Erm, no seeing as it's something which I've obsessed over for six years, the symbol itself is a ba gua, the the trigrams represent 8 family members, mother, father, three daughters and three sons, although one of the sons and one of the daughters from my family have died, as well as depicting a swan, which is sacred to the god Apollo who is the god of music, poetry and arts (I love music, and studies "arts" in college ;) ), as well as being a reminder of all the wonderful experiences I've shared in and the amazing friends I've met and kept due to "that silly tv show". :D

    Ignore what other people think, tattoos are personal to the owner. They have meaning to the person, not to others.
    I think it's fabulous and very nicely done!
