My tattoo blog.

I really need to get my current in progress finished. But first I need to nail down how I would like it coloured. I went to the tattooist and get her impression but didn't really like the ideas she was giving me, and I'm pretty afraid that if I don't have it solid on how I want it she'll do her own thing, so I need to decide.

A big reason that I want to finish that one is so that I can go on to the next ones I want. Namely being, something like this

And this text:

Let it go,
it is not a sin to fight for the right cause
there are those who words alone will not reach.
I know how you feel, you are gentle,
you do not like to hurt.
I know because I too have learned these feelings.
But it is because you cherish life that you must protect it.
Please, drop your restraints, protect the life I loved.
You have the strength, just, let it go.


Extra points if anyone can tell me what that speech is.

Seriously love the ink. What colors were you thinking of? I keep thinking reds, greens and blues with black accents.

Not sure if you boys will come back this way to read my response, but, oh well.

My other tattoo, and others I have planned are all black, but I feel that bird NEEDS to be in colour. It's kind of a phoenix/bird of paradise and symbolizes my escape from something truly horrible. I wanted it to be big and bright. That's why I'm stuck on colour. The tail makes me want to do it in peacock colours, brown, blue, teal, greens... But the brown gets me.
Boot, I like your idea, black would be much better than brown.

As for the speech, yes, it is a translation, it was originally Japanese, and I think if I could find it in Japanese somewhere I'd love to see it, but I had to self transcribe it from TV to get in in English. It's from DragonBallZ.
