Too Young To Worry
Yeah, I've long been the worrying kind, but in a bid to stop myself worrying about stuff, I've taken a leaf out of Martha's book and put a reminder of my new mantra on my forearm, for easy access, in the form of a sugar-skull tattoo. Click the pic for a closer look.It took just about 2 hours 15 minutes, which is super-quick. One of the first things Xam told me at the beginning of this year was that he works fast, and he wasn't kidding. I'm mad pleased with the end result and have also made my first appointment for my backpiece...
So, while this one heals and we get through Christmas (without worrying, of course), New Year, and the wife's birthday, I can also be looking forward to yet more ink. Jeez, how much fun can one guy have?!

Hot damn! That's gorgeous!
Frankily Yours
wow, that's amazing that was done in 2.5 hours. unless you are on some sort of metric time system over there that my dumb american noggin doesn't understand.
Beautiful work. And only 2 1/2 hours? Impossible I say! My leg took 6 and it was much simpler than this beauty!
And only you can say how much is too much!
Cool. Wish I had the guts to have a tat.
love it. and i'm going to join the chorus of i can't believe this took so little time!
i don't know if i'll ever have the guts to get something vibrant and detailed like that... so i'll just live vicariously.
and i hope it serves as a strong reminder for you. i know mine does.
2.5 hours? what is it...rub on? or maybe you just have tiny forearms. looks good.
Very cool. How funny is this going to be when you're 90 and your family members need to lift your sagging arm skin to read that what it says?
ace
That is a seriously cool tattoo. I love the colors.
Thanks guys. Seriously 2 hrs 15 mins (that's 2 1/4 hours, not 2 1/2, so even quicker than you thought!).
Nope, no metric time system here. This beauty was done in the time it takes to watch the standard-length version of Terminator 2.
yeah man...thats pretty awesome. I mean really awesome.
2 1/2 hours for that yikess. But cool work though. How big is the back piece? Your whole back or just a portion of it? A neighbor that just moved had his whole chest done. The only reason I know that is because he was running around without a shirt. No i wasnt looking at another man. I am happily married thank you... LOL.. Well talk later.
Shea: Yeeaaaahhhhh!
Tweetey: Back piece will be whole of my back, yep. Lots of hours...
That is magnificent. Couldn't have one myself though. It says 'too young'. Everybody would laugh...
Whew...that is a beauty!!! I love it and it is unique yes!
I hope it works. I am a fair bit of a worrier too it comes and goes...
Yes, it sounds like you have lots offun events to savour and look forward to and all of those good things.
4D: I'm already pushing the boundaries, I think, but youth is a mindset. And the way I figure, one is always too young to worry.
Candy: Thanks. Worrying is no good for us, y'know?! Yeah, gotta have stuff on the horizon.
Ouch. Are you having that done all at once or in pieces where you can sleep on your back? Just a curious reader.
Cool tat. I have one small tat (in a more private place) and I have thought about getting one more. Don't think that I would be brave enough to get one that big, though.
Here's to no more worries! Have a great Christmas!
A seriously cool tat, man.
I wish I had the guts to have have one that says "no, I'm not here to fix your fucking computer" on my forehead. Or somewhere more appropriate, maybe.
I often dream about what I'd have tattoe'd, but have never managed to think of summat original enough.
Story of my life?
Very cool tat though. Fucking ace, in fact.
I like the colours!
That is so damn gorgeous!! Oh *Aste, if your tattoo guy is an artist with ink, you are a genius for choosing this design. Really, it is very very beautiful!
dude... that's... a lot of tattoos. still have space?
Tweetey: The back will be done in several session, perhaps as many as 10 of varying length.
Biddie: Yeah, this is quite big, though probably not my biggest.
Soupy: Cheers, mate! You should get one of Aaron Kwok or something!
Mr A: They're certainly vibrant, right?
Milla: Ah yes, genius. That's me!
_z.: Plenty space yet!
Oh ok. I was wondering how you were going to do that all at once.. LOL.. Thanks for sharing your tatoo's though. They are neat to look at.
That is quite an achievement, what a talent. I love it. :)
Tweetey: No worries.
Suze: Thanks pet.
