Tattoos --

[Boss Mare]

I know many of you all have tattoos, but how many of you have horse related ones and are you willing to post pictures? I am just curious to see how many of us horse addicts have actually gotten them inked on us...

I am a fan of tattoos and piercings (I have both), I had "Fantasy" tattooed on the back of my neck in honor of my first foal born here. I loved it, but I wanted something that had more of a statement. Since the lettering was small I had it covered up with a rearing black horse with shading.. It reminds me so much more of my Fantasy baby, more so than just the name.

I'll have to get someone to take pictures for me so I can post them since it's not exactly in an easy spot to get a picture of yourself.

I already have another tattoo in the making and this one will be linked horseshoes.

Oh, I like the linked horse-shoes idea.

There is supposedly a heiroglyph for the "Keeper Of The Horses". I've been looking for it for years, but have not yet found it. Once I do though, that will be my next tat, just not sure yet where it will go yet, probably ankle.

Here are my horsey ones..............

This one is on my upper back right in the middle right below the bottom of my neck. Got it in 2002 I think.

This was my very first tattoo, got it when I was 15 (Mom went with me). My old gelding Barney that died in 03', his registered name was Legend, like the movie. So I got a unicorn with his facial marking, a crescent moon. It's not blurry in person, it's extremely detailed.........but it's a little hard to take a picture of your own ummm........buttock

:

This one is on top of my right foot. Again, it's not blurry, the horseshoe actually has detailed nail holes.

This one is on the outside of my left leg right above my ankle bone. Again it's extremely detailed, including brown strands of mane and a purple outline.

And this is my newest, I got it in October of 2004. It's above my right breast. On the same day, my best friend Erika got the same tattoo on her right calf.

I have 2 more that aren't horse related. An Aries symbol, and a gecko. I might get one more someday but I don't know.

Charmed- Could you post a pic of your aries tat? I'm getting my glyph done and am interested to see how you did yours.

[SIZE=18pt]I got my first tattoo on the day my first foal was still born. It is in memory of my aunt and it's a flower. I'm getting a foal with a halo in memory of my first and only foal that will be born at my farm.[/SIZE]

I have a horseshoe on my left shoulder blade! I got it when I was around 19 (I'm 32 now).

No, none for me but I think your alls are neat. I am sitting here thinking that if I had gotten one done right after high school in a specific spot or two, I coulda grown it from a mini into a full size horse :no:

How badly does it hurt to get a tattoo? What is the pain comparable to?

I was thinking of getting a horse related tattoo after I return from farrier school.

 

[Casnos Minis]

[SIZE=18pt]Everyone told me it hurt, but I didn't think it did. It felt like bee stings. It actually wasn't bad at all.[/SIZE]

Jill im laughing so hard!!!

 

[woodnldy]

Jill I am afraid I was thinking the same thing.. Those are all so pretty ,I just never had the nerve to have one done.

I LOVE getting tattooed, the feeling almost puts me to sleep. The best way I can explain it is it feels like someone is writing on you with a sharp pencil. I think the pain is overated. The only part that's even somewhat hard for me to get used to with both tattoos I've gotten was the vibration of the tattoo gun. Especially since they were on the back of my neck I could feel the vibration travel into my throat and rattle in my lungs, but that subsided pretty quick.... I'd love to get a full back piece one day and sit through the whole thing at one time... once I have the extra cash and decide EXACTLY what I want.

I wanted to get my zodiac sign on my ankle over the summer but never went in. Been thinking about it and i want to get a horse related one somewhere after i graduate. I'd like to get a simple black detail of a horse rearing on my ankle when i gather up some extra cash.

I remember meeting someone who had a ring like tatoo on there finger that was tinytiny horses nose-to-tail that went around her finger like a ring. You had to get up close to see the horses. I'd like to get one of these but on my toe or something, lol. Prob wouldnt be to expensive either, its small!

OMG...that is too beautiful! My best friend just got 2 done, she's about to get a third. She has the japanese character for "dangerous" on her left lowerback, then a bright pink hibiscus in the center and is about to get the word "little sister" in japanese on the right. She wanted to get a horse but couldn't decide on a pretty one. If I show her yours she'd be so jealous!!!

The horse in the front will be made to look like my first horse. and the horse in the back after much thought will be made to look like my dream horse (min black roan pinto, with high stockings and a bald face, Clyd

). My First horse was a miniature Palomino. When the time comes I'm going to ask the Artist to play with the image a bit. I also want some words under it "Our Greatest Glory is not in never falling, but in rising when we do."

This will mean a lot to me, having my first horse on it and all. It also reminds me of the pecies smybol witch is mine

: And the qoute is something that helped me through a lot after I sold my horse (I really did not want to but it was for the best.) It will be between my shoulder blades, any horse that i get I will have put on my back after that.

I also want gold fish on my feet making my birth sign, one fishy on each foot. And me and best friend have agreed to get a pin up girl together.

Hubby has two awesome horse tattoo's I will try and get pics..........they where coverups to other tattoo's he had and they are AWESOME! One is a horse head with feathers in it's mane and the other is a horse and eagle the eagle is blended in with the horse, it is pretty neat! I will try to get pics, or find the original that it came from.

I have two tattoo's one is a red and purple roses on my right thigh with vines around them and the other is a tiger laying down on my ankle............I really want a horse tattoo also, but not sure if I want anymore.

The thigh tattoo was my first, and I love it, it didn't hurt as bad as I thought(probably becasue there is padding on your thighs!LOL)

But the ankle one OWWWWWWWWW.......I am boney with no meet on my ankles so that one hurt!!!!!!!

Probably the only one I wouldn't get grossed out at is a horse one. Sorry, I hate tattoos, especially on girls.... call me an old fart.... I am
