Hey guys,

Im looking at getting a couple of tattoos soon and would like to get one to represent my love for minis.

Basically I want this sign.

Image

but want to change the wings to flames. The problem being i suck at drawing.

Was wondering if anybody could draw one up for me. dont care about colours. Would prefer black and white as its less painfull that way.


Cheers
Heath

No no no - if you change the wings to flames it will have changed so much that anyone who sees it will think you are talking about your burning mini dick.

Keep the wings - maybe add flames behind it but keep the mini car identity

I'd agree with having your tattooist come up with a design, I'd just take in the pic and try and best explain how you'd like it to look and let them be creative, after all thats why they do it :wink:

I just told my tattoist what I'd like it to incorporate with mine and he came up with a design that was way better than i could have imagined.

It doesnt really cost anymore either and they will probably enjoy it more too making it a better experience for both of you!!!.......a good thing if you pass out...hehe

^^^ Like Mike Byron said :D :D

Tattoo in haste,
Repent at leisure!

It could look pretty nice in colours.


Hope you really like minis!

If it what you want go for it it sounds like you have been thinking about it for a while...... they dont hurt that much..... i think it hurts more after, feels like sun burn.......

i say go the shoulder area (only my opinion)
