First Tat!

Took me 45 years to figure out what I wanted, and tonight I spent 3 hours in the chair getting it. Not a bad experience at all. Would and probably will do it again sometime. Its a Valkyrie, that carry the Vikings that died bravely in combat to Valhalla. The shield she holds is the family crest of my grandfather. My fiancee drew the original design, and the tattoo artist touched it up and did a fine job.

Sorry its kinda shiny, but he used lots of lotion when he finished. I am also very tan at the moment, and the colors will be much brighter as my tan fades.

The words translate to "God save them from the Wrath of the Norseman"

Right on man, good choice.
 
Born and raised in tacoma. I live in Phoenix right now. Moved here in Feb. I went to college in Montana. MSU Bozeman.
 
I hope my guardian angel looks like that.

I've been thinking more and more about getting another tattoo. The one I've got right now is a Celtic Knot beside my family clan motto in Gaelic. It's on the inside of my left bicep. I'd like to get another on the left side of my abdomen, basically on my obliques. I'm thinking of a clover filled in with the tri-color and have it say "South Side Irish" around the top. (I'm from Chicago South Side).
 
I want to get a big ass wolf's head snarling like right between and underneath my shoulder blades on the back. Something like this but just the head of the wolf...

Hey cannon... Anything Irish makes for a pretty bas @ss tatoo anyhow. I'm currently rough sketching my first one. It's a shouldercap/1/4 sleeve and it contains a shamrock.

Righto. I'm considering a South Side Irish tattoo on my left oblique area. I've also wanted to get the outline of Ireland done, filled in with the tri-color.

If I had to get a tattoo, this would be at the top of my list.

You could have some fun with one like that! Run up to some lil' kids and make some weird grunting noises. WOULD SCARE THE LIVING **** OUT OF THEM! You wouldn't even need a mask. Hahha
