I only have two, but I like 'em big. Here's one, a Japanese style dragon half sleeve. The other has been updated a few times, I don't have a current pic, but it's a thigh piece, about half the leg on the outside, wraps some a little on front and back. A rearing Celtic style horse with a Newgrange type triad spiral behind it, done by Pat Fish of Tattoo Santa Barbara. I drew the horse, she fitted the knotwork and basket weave. I want another, a snake, but I'm spending all my spare change pimping my moto right now...

There is some great designs there.

I have 7.

freddy krugar on the inside of my left leg
A demon roboty sort of a guy on the outside of my right leg
A demon sort of monster on my left shoulder
A demonguy on a dragon sort of a motorbike on my calf
my husband and sons name on my right arm
My 2nd sons name on my left arm
And erm f*ck off written on my lower back, erm my silly sense of humor shining through

AWESOME! The black and gray calf piece is especially nicely done! Thanks for sharing, cool work.

I love your Tattoo. The colors are awesome. I love dragons.

Nice ink! Yeah, it's not fair to call it just one when it's that large! I have what would be considered 10 tattoos, but one is very large and took more than 8 hours total to complete. And one is an added onto/redo job of an older tattoo. So it's hard to keep count on those types of tattoos.

I'm getting a new tattoo tomorrow - I'm so excited about this one as it will commemorate my service as a Firefighter/EMT.

Cheers,
Loonette

Definitely some nice tattoos.

I've been getting more work done on mine over the winter, but haven't been good about the progress photos. I only have about an hour and a half left probably (after 15 hours), but I should have some up soon.

Loonette, you're going to have to post up after you get it.

Yes, please post more pics of your tat - I know the finished product is going to be beautiful!

I was going to post a pic now, but my arm is still too red and angry. I'll post a pic tomorrow evening - before the healing really begins, but after it calms down a bit. All I can say about this new one is that I absolutely love it! Well worth the five hours of needling. Later!

Cheers,
Loonette

Well, please keep in mind I'm still healing and some of the color still needs to settle out. I have one more session to finish touching up some spots, and color in the rest of the flowers/tail.

Here's my crappy pictures (i hate adjusting things and the flash is washing my leg out a bit):
