Now that's a tattoo!
Talk about the illustrated man......................
Do you get just one done?
Do woman get these too?
you get what your heart desires. Yes women get "murals" done as well. Tis a huge big world out there when it comes to tattoos. I have been to a couple tattoo shows those are facinating. If you look closely at the work, they are truly works of art. Take them off the body and put them onto a canvas and they are gorgeous.

What does it mean? I dunno... I've got pierced ears too, and I'm not gay.
I don't think it means squat anymore. Pierced ears just kind of happen these days. But don't get me started on Body modification now that is nasty stuff

No Jives wrong wrong, gross and wrong... I mean if the tat artist did his work on a canvas instead of a body it would look awesome. It would be art. Sheesh skin a guy that is just evilness at it's worst

I would kinda expect that of a man who was proud of his tats. Stretch & mount his skin after he's dead.

This is a picture of a lampshade made of human skin found in Koch's apartment.
The drawing is a tattoo that was on the man's chest.

Here is good advise from one of my most fave Tattoo Artists, he was my fave even before Miami Ink
Chris Nunez
1. Don’t play the name game.
Sure, it seems obvious, but Nunez says people still come into his South Beach shop desiring to be inked with the name of a significant other. It didn’t turn out lovely for star couples such as Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee, and Roseanne Barr and Tom Arnold. It won’t for you, either.
2. Turn off the flash.
Selecting a previously designed tattoo, called flash in the tattoo biz, rather than collaborating with an artist to create an original design is like hanging a paint-by-numbers painting in your living room instead of a Van Gogh.
“Flash is only good to give people ideas,†Nunez said.
3. Check out the portfolio.
“Look at artists’ work,†advises Nunez. “Ask them to show you these things. Say, ‘Show me what you got. Show me what you do. Show me your stuff.’ That gives you a fair chance because you’re gonna see the quality.†Nunez says a good portfolio includes both designs on paper and pictures of past clients’ tats.

Didn't he get it done after his "Raiders" movie? In the 80's a bunch of us pilots all went out and got it done at the same time. I think that was a year or two after "Raiders of the Lost Ark" came out. It's kind of hazy now, but I remember everyone was doing it at the time. One of the few times I got caught up in a fashion craze.
It's nothing gaudy, just a small diamond stud. Left ear ( the non-gay one.)

Isn't it hard to get rid of, they laser them off or something like that?

Clancy wrote: It's a form of cleansing, Minks He had the misfortune to have been in the military and be sent to every sh*t house on the planet. Strangely enough one of the most harrowing, was the aftermath of the Jumbo Pan Am Jet bound for the US ... the one that was bombed and fell on the town of Locherbie in Scotland.
Seeing children still strapped to aircraft seats in open fields was something he found particularly grim. The other campaigns were straight forward, them or him....thankfully for us it was them.
oooo sadly his memory won't be erased completely, well I understand to remove tat's by laser it is more painful than to get the tat. I wish him luck.
