Tattoo Blog
I don’t typically pay much attention to temporary tattoos. Why would I? Permanent tattoos are far better, of course. I’m also willing to bet that the majority of people who regularly visit the Tattoo Blog aren’t really interested in temporary tattoos either. But you know what? As it turns out,...
Billy getting PornHub on face My adventures in tattoo advertising continue with PornHub.com. This is a really great adult website. They are advertising on my right cheek, Just below my zoozle.com tattoo ad. I now have 9 tattoo ads on my head so far! I am looking for new websites to...
A recent news report out of Copenhagen, Denmark tells of a new ban on tattoos in the work place for guards working for the Danish Prison and Probation Service. The ban, effective as of now specifies that Danish prison guards are not permitted to have visible “biker gang type” tattoos....
The last time that I wrote about children being tattooed by their elders, I had hoped it would be the last. I should have known better because now not only is there more recent news about a child being tattooed, but it’s the youngest child that I have ever heard...
It’s really awful given the current popularity of tattoos and given that this is after all, 2010, that tattoo shops are still regularly closed down due to improper hygiene.

Aviatrix Scorned: Droppin’ the “F” Bomb Tattoo

Just PLANE Hip Ink: P-51 Mustang Fighter Tattoo
Normally I don’t like to post two tattoos of the same type of aircraft one right after the other, but since the P-51 Mustang WWII fighter is so popular as a tattoo and technique of this specific tattoo is so unique, I couldn’t help myself! (click the image above for the...
‘Stang Excitement: P-51 Mustang Backpiece Tattoo
One of the things that makes tattoos featuring aircraft so challenging is the amount of detail that many aircraft require to look accurate. As a result, airplane tattoos generally work better when they cover a larger part of the body rather than small areas… backs and torsos seem to work...

Poetic Memory: High Flight Tattooed Verse
For many who find their true home in the sky, flying is far more than a mode of transportation… it is an artform, a state of being, and the intrinsic spirit that propels them forward. The romance of dancing around clouds and soaring above the Earth moves aviators to poetry,...
