Just doing some research. But look at the detail on that Cowboys helmet :wow: And the Dwight Clark "The CatcH" tattoo... that's brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thito_da_skins_fan Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 I have the logo on my left shoulder/arm. I have the feathers on my right leg. I was very impressed with the detail of mine. Go for it, DH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was very impressed with the detail of mine. Go for it, DH. You got a pic? I'm putting the logo on my left arm too (shoulder). But I'm starting off with an arm band tomorrow (attached below). I might get the Redskins logo the next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thito_da_skins_fan Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Here's the one on my leg right after it was done (hence the shaved no hair). I couldn't find a close-up of the logo on my arm, but I put a small picture of it on the bottom left corner of this picture. Not sure if you'll be able to see it clearly or not. A few people on the site here have seen it and I've gotten numerous compliments. Detail is everything man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die Hard Posted September 24, 2004 Author Share Posted September 24, 2004 Those are awesome. But why no color? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thito_da_skins_fan Posted September 24, 2004 Share Posted September 24, 2004 Originally posted by Die Hard Those are awesome. But why no color? I'm not a fan of color in tattoos. I was also a little worried about the burgundy turning out burgundy and the gold turning out gold. They would have had to mix some colors together to get burgundy and gold. Didn't wanna take that chance. Dave, skinsfan44, has the logo on his arm and it has full color. It looks great. I have a Bob Marley tattoo on my back as well. It's in black. One dreadlock has color. It fades from red to yellow to green (Jamaican colors). That's about as much color as I'd get. Another thing is color fades easily. I was a little worried about the burgundy looking pink and the yellow looking white as I got older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die Hard Posted September 25, 2004 Author Share Posted September 25, 2004 Well, at the last minute, I decided to get the Redskins logo instead of the arm band. I think I'll get the armband next week. The result: AMAZING. I couldn't be happier. It's bandaged up right now... so I won't be able to show it until tomorrow... but here's a couple of pics of the process.

Cskin Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I tried to get the word "mother" on my forearm.... but could only stand the pain for M-O-T-H. I ask people if they've ever heard of the Mothman Prophecies.... than give them a furled eyebrow and a devlish grin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarhog Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Cool DH You always struck me as too cerebral for a tat, but then again, I've got one and, as far as I know, I'm not an idiot To me a tattoo says 'this is what I love and I don't care who knows about it'. Very few things I'd engrave on my body. I've thought about one like yours though..... Looks like they did a nice job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very few things I'd engrave on my body. I've thought about one like yours though..... Looks like they did a nice job. I can't say I've always wanted a tattoo. I've always thought about it... but it was never a necessity for me. If there was ever something that played a large role in my identity... it's the Redskins. Win or lose. It's really not that big... and since I wear tshirts and long sleeve shirts all the time.. it won't be visible to the public. Only my wife... and whoever I decide to show it to. Same with the arm band. I've always said my 30's are going to be the best years of my life. No regrets. After I get my arm band next week... I've closed the chapter in my life to do with tattoos I can't wait to unveil the tattoo tomorrow. It far exceeded my expectations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Looks nice, Tony. Good job. Like that arm band image as well ... do it. My canvas is clean, but if I were ever going to get inked, a nice Skins logo like that would definately be on the list (in 3rd place, right after my kids' names).

lucky*13 Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 DH,im a tattoo artist working out of L.A. and am generally dissapointed in the execution of most redskin logo tattoos that i have seen. But i must say that your tat is outstanding,i hope you tipped your artist well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskns21 Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 Thito, That one on your arm looks sweet. I had a tattoo designed by somebody on this site that I'm going to get that was different than the standard logo. It's different than yours, but I like yours as well. Do you have any larger pictures of that? DH, I must agree with everyone else, she did a great job on your tat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted September 25, 2004 Share Posted September 25, 2004 I'm thinking of getting the script R or the two feathers just off to the side of my right shoulder blade, pretty much in the middle of my back... But, like thito said... I fear color for the fact that it's difficult to get the right shades... Right now I got a tribal with my initials blended in that sits on my upper left shoulder that arches with my muscle... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any larger pictures of that? Thanks man. Unfortunately I don't have any larger pictures. If you ever make it to a game, stop by F-51, and I'll show you in person. Or if I get a closer picture before then, I'll post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cskin Posted September 27, 2004 Share Posted September 27, 2004 Diehard.. now that you've got the tattoo, which looks great by the way, how about getting some sun on that spindly arm and finding yourself a bicep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
