A Sylvia Ji portrait:


The Sheer Terror bulldog:


My kids' piggy bank toy (with the words "I LOVE MONEY"):


A Routemaster w/ "Summer '09" to commemorate the trip.

Agreed, those portraits are rad! And you don't wanna bite off my ST bulldog piece while I'm still getting sessions on it, do ya? And no, I will not consider the possibility that anyone else could possibly have a similar tattoo already....

That piggy bank Idea is rad, but not sure it would work.

XHonusWagnerX - 6-26-2009 at 08:30 AM

the top picture is pretty awesome and most likely what I would go with. Guess it depends where you want to get it and how much time you want to put into it!

this sylvia ji picture looks great. would be cool on a leg.
if you like this style, check out this guy, he has some great artworks and the style is a little bit similar.

The piggy bank wouldn't be exactly as you see it in the photo, that's just the only image I could find online of the actual toy.

I want the pig, w/o the door, big and exaggerated, almost like a Thanksgiving Day parade float, with the big colorful coins floating all around it sitting on big swatches of background color, with the words "I LOVE MONEY" worked in real big. This piece is meant to fill one whole side of my lower leg.

When my daughter was two, "I love money" were her exact words while playing with that toy. My son said the exact same thing recently. That sealed the deal, it's just a matter of when.

BDx13 - 6-26-2009 at 09:06 AM

oh, yeah, i'm familiar with florian's work!

there are a few sylvia ji tattoos out there.
most are not so good.
mine, of course, would be dope.
if i go with that piece, i'll be asking Piotrek Taton to do it:

holy shit that guy's amazing.

barc0debaby - 6-27-2009 at 12:44 AM

Pig all the way. :thumbup:

BDx13 - 6-27-2009 at 05:47 PM

actually leaning toward the routemaster, or some other england themed piece.
i can get the other stuff at home.
i'm into commemorative tattoos, and one in honor of the trip should be done here.

my daughter thinks that the 50p piece is a picture of the queen and her brains.
maybe i'll get that instead.
or maybe the queen and her brains should drive the bus.


XHonusWagnerX - 6-27-2009 at 10:39 PM

if you want to get it in England than maybe the comerative one is the way to go, but dont wait to long on the pig cause I wanna see it!

BDx13 - 7-9-2009 at 06:34 PM

This tattoo was meant to commemorate our family trip to London, so it took precedence over some of the other ideas I've had. It needed to be London-themed and done here in London. AND it had to involve the kids in some way, hence the bus. Those little people love them a double decker bus!

So we've got the old-school Routemaster bus, bus line 35 (since i turned 35 on Sunday) and destination "Frith St" since that's our friend Danny's shop where it was done.
