Tattoo - Help Fishoholic Choose
 
So some of us had brunch today with Ms L. We all agreed that she needs more excitement in her life, maybe a new direction. The first thing to do was to get her a tattoo and Ms L thought that might be interesting. We need you canreefers to make some suggestions. Some of the ones that came on the table:

1) A Canadian Flag
2) the Phrase " Suck You " with the Rolling Stones Trademark
3) No Mas

You Get the idea...but keep n the bounds of civility or the mod police will shut us down

SPS frag(s?) prize for the best idea(good or bad) ....gotta get it at the reefers meeting:mrgreen:

Location of Tattoo...TBA later or where appropriate

MODS: This is okay with Fishoholic...check with her too

Oh Laurie what have they talked you into? Run girl. :behindsofa:

I have a few tat's now and looking to get another soon. I have a 6" scorpion on my right calf, and eagle on my left shoulder blade and a mid-evil battle axe maltese cross with a willie g. harley skull in the middle. Looking to get a grizzy bear head on my left calf, as if it was ripping through my skin. All my tat's have a very definite meaning in my life, so with that said fishaholics tat should be her MOST favorite or most wanted fish. I would love to see a Volitain Lionfish tat all fanned out.

"2) the Phrase " Suck You " with the Rolling Stones Trademark" I like this one but I'd replace the
'S" with an "F" :)

I have a couple ideas for a new Tat but I'm keepin them to myself,cause thats just how that goes:)

Lance 06-27-2010 01:09 AM

fowlr Right on the small of her back above her butt. (Sorry Laurie I couldn't resist):mrgreen:

DiverDude 06-27-2010 01:27 AM

Ummmm.... I don't know the lady in question -and tats are very personal things- but in keeping with a reefy theme, how about something like "Salty!" or "I Sin on the Salty Side". Perhaps with a fish with an oversized tongue licking the 'y'. Or hey....use the Rolling Stones lips with "Salty" underneath !

If you want to go on the nerdy side, simply tat her ideal water parameters somewhere !

why not keep it simple and just give yourself a tat of a King Angelfish :)

noirsphynx 06-27-2010 04:35 AM

How about a tat of Fireflight the fu man chu? Nice color and salty theme.

:lol: Wayne, Steve (from little oceans) and I had brunch today. I mentioned how if I ever got a tattoo I'd want a maple leaf or Canadian flag. Needless to say the conversation went into a whole new direction with (lets say) "interesting ideas" of what they would tattoo on me :lol:

This is were I thought the tattoo ideas would lead :lol: and since I could use a good laugh, and this is supposed to be more fun then serious, keep the "interesting" (but appropriate for this forum) ideas coming.

My king angel (pic. in avatar) is my fav. So while it's a great idea for a tattoo I think I'd just barely be able to handle a small maple leaf on my arm, never mind a whole multi coloured fish.

Lance 06-27-2010 05:28 AM

Laurie, I think a little "Nemo" on the ankle or back of the shoulder would be kinda nice.

lockrookie 06-27-2010 05:43 AM

you could do a couple of theses on your back....

OH come now Laurie, if I can do 3 fairly large tat's you can do a little one, as I have a MAJOR HUGE phobia of needle's.

I would suggest you put it just above your ankle, you will hardly feel it.

lastlight 06-27-2010 06:28 AM

Good thing you're a saltHead already. I nearly had a cichlid needled into my skin about 10 years ago. I'd be regretting that a whole lot right about now.

You into Roy Orbison?

I'm not scared of needles, one single needle poking you in the arm doesn't even hurt, however one little needle poking you many many times in the same spot over and over again, I think would hurt....a lot! Somehow, from what my friends who have tattoo's tell me, I will definitely feel it. Also years ago I watched my friend Jay get half of his arm tattoo, and while he was trying to show that it didn't hurt, every time he flinched you could tell it did.

:lol: Nope, but now I want to watch Waterboy, it's been awhile since I've seen that movie.

If I ever got a tattoo I want to make sure I wouldn't regret it 10-30 yrs from now. I know I wouldn't regret a maple leaf or Canadian flag.

However after seeing the lionfish tat. and thinking about what Dawn said about getting a tat. of my fu man chu, I can't help but think that would look cool, but I'm not sure I could handle the pain of a larger tattoo.


Edit: meant to say I would not regret a maple leaf/canadian flag :redface: oops!

:lol: obviously! However I want one just like it.

Ok I got it a King Angel holding a Canadian flag by it fin or mouth. :lol:

reefwars 06-27-2010 08:23 PM

Do the full on reef with as much coral and coral as can be plastered that would be cool but would cost a fortune I'm sure lol

anaitari 06-27-2010 08:27 PM

How about a small clownfish with a white maple leaf like one of it's stripes

Hummmm...that's a pretty cool idea. I like maroon clowns, so maybe one of those with a white maple leaf type stripe on my ankle would be neat.

This could be great, one of the strips could be the bar and then the leaf.




Personally though, think nothing wrong with just a leaf :biggrin:

Ya I was just thinking the maroon clownfish could make a cool looking flag.

Side profile, the maroon body the thin while stripe around it's head then the middle stripe a white maple leaf then the thin white stripe around the tail. Ohhhh.....I like it :biggrin:

Cool leaf tat. Mark. I still love the waving flag like Mike's though, but I also really love the uniqueness of a canadian flag (only white maple leaf instead of red) clownfish which I think would look good on my ankle.

RedCoralEdmonton 06-28-2010 05:11 PM

I like the idea of an SPS covered reef, not too big but having it look like an arm band or a leg band and have it wrap all the way around, sort of never ending....
