Taking it too far

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I know some of you have Sisters tattoos, which, I'm sure, reflects your love of a great band.

And likewise, fans of other...things, do the same. But, don't you think you can go a bit overboard?

Especially stuff like:

It's a bit over the top. But it's his back, not mine. Now really over the top was the chap I saw in Soho....His entire FACE was a tattoo!!! :eek: :eek: NOW that is taking it way too far!!!! I would have loved to buy him a coffee and ask him what Inspired him. And on another thought, what kind of job do you think someone like that would have?

Most decent tattooists won't do face or hand work.

He found someone to do it! It was amazing to see...I had to keep myself from staring as he was rather ominous looking, but I imagine probably a very nice guy.

Well, he's obviously good, but it's amazing what some people want on their arms. I'm far too fickle to decide on one thing - I change my hair style and colour every other week - bit difficult with something like a tattoo.

I recommend you get one too!

That's almost tasteful.

But what if I lost my hand in a freak accident? it would serve as a constant reminder of what I no longer had......

You see? Dangerous game tattoos.

that first one,is ok,be better i think tho if used more colours.looks like a transformer or something very like it.

be some tales behind them all i bet.
something to tell the grand kiddies at the fireside anyway.

as for the piercing,whatever floats your boat.
certainly dont find it offensive,or off putting.

Scary Guy has full facial tattoo and the odd puiercing too.tours the world visiting scholls and such talking about his experiences,reactions,his whole ethos.

I saw a guy at the Derby tattoo festival last year with a big sisters tat on the back of his head :eek: (New style symbol) full maori face tat and heavily stretched ears (Big bugger too)

Funny thing is I've never seen him at gigs? :?

years ago (my student days) i was a fan of Arts & Crafts Movement, William Morris, Pre-Raphaelites etc.
that pic seemed really familiar but meanwhile i looked at some books about that subject i got and also some websites but i couldn't find exactly such painting.
a couple of them were similar but not exactly the same.
maybe it wasn't a painting but a drawing (from a book for example) or something like this? you know, those guys did everything - books, carpets, furniture, stained glass etc etc etc :notworthy:
