I've got two, trying to get my camera to work but it isnt cooperating.
On my left forearm is a Tomcat standing on his hind legs leaning on an M-16. It was a going away present from friends in an F-14 Squadron in San Diego. In 1983 we went to Tijuana to party together one last time, the next morning I woke in a cheap hotel with a new tattoo and a fat ugly hooker. Surprisingly I still had my wallet, money, and all vital organs.
I have a Tribal Panther on my right shoulder. In 1998 I was stationed in Puerto Rico and met a lady tattoo artist out partying one night, she commented she could probably fix my Tomcat which had become pretty faded and rough by this time. My wife and I went to her shop the next day and ended up leaving with a repaired Tomcat, a Tribal Panther, and my wife got the Angel from one of the Led Zepplin albums on her hip. A few months later the wife went back and got a spirit scene tattooed on her chest from the same lady.
Some recomendations:
Dont get a real intricate design with close lines, over time the lines bleed and it'll get blurry.
Becareful of colors, some colors fade and if their a detail of the tattoo it will lose definition.
I personally prefer tattoo's in a place where I can show them if I want or cover them with clothing if it isnt an appropriate setting.
And be sure whatever you get is something you can live with, cause eventhough you can get them off it's expensive.

Looks like I'll have to be the one to break this thread in, and post a pic.

Mine was actually based on a comic character, I just redrew it.
The character's name is QTBunny, done by Joshua Quagmire. The Quagmire

The character was dressed as Marvel's Storm for a Halloween party in the comic, and I liked the look of it, so I redrew it one day while I was bored.
Someone suggested it would make a good tattoo, so I thought about it, and had it done. Of course I had it done when I was thinner, so as I've gained weight so has she

My one and only. Got it last year on a trip to Vegas with friends at the famous Hart and Huntington's in the Palms casino. I am a Taurus so it represents my Zodiac sign and it was my 40th birthday so it was my present to me, one purchase I can actually take to the grave
