    Been looking at a pair of these myself, but all black. Having tried a few on though it looks like I need the child models to not look like Spider-man.

    Sweet dude, Same for October, November and December! full left sleeve 6 years in the planning and refining :thumb:

    After that I'll stop for a few years, I don't feel its wasteful (Although I can't keep throwing cash at them) in fact these tattoos have made me feel more me than ever. definite confidence booster

    Serengeti and Randolph Engineering do Aviators in multiple sizes, both better made than Ray Bans too.


    Matt Chrome Randolphs in particular are lovely.

    Better than spending little and having a mess on your arms, I'm in the same position now.

    I know how much i want done visibly to be happy with the work and the aesthetic. Knowing i can show it off or cover it up for the right situation. The sleeve was always a risk but if I really needed to i'm usually good with long sleeves.

    Went out last night with some ripped jeans (i ripped them, £25 jeans... three figure tattoo the decision was easy) which revealed 70% of my knee tattoo... Such an awesome response. After a few drinks people are more inclined to just speak their mind and walk over to you. I thought most would hate it and give the 'Why would you do that?' which In a weird way i wanted.... Because it reinforced I was doing it only for my own happiness. But yeah got loads of people saying it looked amazing and they wanted to do it now...

    I have some script across my chest that references wolves and sheep (It has quite alot of meaning actually)... Part of me feels I need to get the other knee done with a sheep/ram.... I'll give it a while but it'll probably happen sometime next year :D

    I'm just really pleased with it, guy done an amazing job :clap:

    B&B in Hornsea, B&B in Edinburg, Virgin train tickets from Edinburgh to York and from York to London for October. Staying at a friend's house in Stevenage for the few days I'll be in London. Now just missing flights which will be booked soon.

    Two great weeks in Britain ahead. :)

    Nice bit of kit you have there, I'm still running a D3000 contemplating an upgrade or just getting a more modern body and keep what I have and run the pair.

    Yep that's a really nice camera and I did virtually the same, although I upgraded from a micro 4/3 Olympus. The D3200 is a fantastic little camera and gets even better when you get good glass for it. I've been using the 50mm f/1.8D with much success, the only downside being no AF.

    My latest purchase (secret guilty pleasure) and not as cheap as I'd have liked thanks to the crappy GBP:EUR exchange rate, but still cheaper than the various company livery versions that are also produced.

    Oh, that's awesome. How are you planning on having it displayed? Mobile or deployed?

    I'm really impressed with it.

    I got an 18-200mm lens as an everyday walkabout - other than the 18-55 kit lens, I don't have any others. The 50mm f/1.8D looks like a nice prime, but the £70 premium for AF-S on the G is a bit steep.
