I left the choice of colour entirely up to him and I'm really glad I did. I've done that with my last couple of tattoos and I'll probably do the same with any I get in the future

I think I might do that for my cover-up. I love seeing what he can come up with.

can someone tell me what exactly is the significance of sugar skulls is? I honestly have no idea what they're all about.

I just love that the design translates so well to a tattoo (not just mine, I mean in general). I'm developing some sort of fetish for traditional styles with bright colours, so this was pretty much tailor made.

Sugar skulls are becoming the new tribal arm band. Just sayin'

Looks good though.

 

[Rizla]

U mad.

letters on wrists have never been done!

i have both my wrists done w. script.

 

[Buttons]

U mad.

Not mad at all... you're saying that sugar skills are the new "in" tattoo yet you're getting a tattoo that has been the "in" tattoo longer than tribal armbands. You have very little knowledge of the tattoo world... stick to science.

 

[Rizla]

I'd say the script i have on my collarbones is more "in" than a sugarskull, but whatever

 

[drewzilla]

I dig it, here's mine

A sugar skull is a design.

The letters I am getting say something very few people are getting. Something related to a personal achievement. Again, Umad. I could give a fuck less what you get if you like it. I was simply making the observation that I see a lot of people walking around with sugar skulls. Especially that style.

Oh you got scientific principles on your wrists? "It consists of letters! It's been done!"

So much mad over a simple observation. Do you all look down on people for getting tribals if it's what they want?

 

[CorpseStreet]

I dig it, here's mine

I'd call yours a catrina

im wasnt saying there is anything wrong w. what you are getting. but to call sugar skulls the new tribal is dumb.

i dont look down on anything someone gets. if they are happy with it thats all that matters. i may share my opinion on liking it or not but its their body, their choice


also, not every sugar skull looks the same. so if your argument is that the symbols you have are not the same as what i have......
