So, we took a lil trip to Salt Lake City today in hopes of going to the Museum of Natural History. Turns out everything in SLC closes at 5 pm, sometimes earlier on Sundays.
That also meant we couldn't go to the zoo.
So our third option was getting tattoos, and so we did!
Tara's is on her left ankle and hers is the first pic.
Mine's on my right wrist.
(Posting this from my phone so I hope the images turn out!)

AH! You guys stole my <hope> idea! Now I have to get one to catch up!
They look AWESOME!
Remember the Animorphs Sanctuary? Where you got the little necklace thing to identify yourself as an Animorphs fan to other fans? This tattoo is like a cooler version of that.
-
Do it. We hope you're not upset it was just such a good idea!
Actually that was my original idea was to copy the pendant hehe but I wanted more than that
-
No, it's awesome. This way if I'm too chicken to ever get the tattoo the idea has made it into ink form regardless. :) I'm soooo jealous. I actually want exactly what you got, Patty, except in a brown color so that it looks more like henna. Same place and everything.
-
Oohh just do it!
Let's do it! ;)
It only stung a little and parts I didn't feel at all. Don't chicken out!
-
That is awesome! :D I think I'd get an Animorphs tattoo if I weren't worried I'd realize I hated whatever I got afterwards. XD That would just happen to me. :P

New Years RAFcon at Tara's. Then I can force Jess to get it with me so that we both don't chicken out at the last minute. :D
-
haha nice. i was going to go for <hope> as well (if i didn't get a goomba).
-
Ok. We're doing it Jessi. New Years trip. colorado. Tara, find us a tattoo shop.
-
what's the age limit for tattoos? 18?
-
I don't think it's 18. A friend of mine got one at 15, though she had her parents with her. Maybe there's an age limit sans parentals.

This should be interesting. XD
-
Yeah, if you're under 18 you need parent/guardian permission.
-
Yeah most places will allow 16 with parental consent.
Omg do it guyyysss!
-
Im gonna have to get an andalite head and tail if I get one
-
Awesome guys, if you wanna go ahead with it I'm already scouting for good artists in the area :)
-
Yeah, that's awesome! I love the Yeerk ^^ I didn't think a Yeerk could be so great as tattoo, but in fact it's really cute!
-
Yeah the Yeerk was kind of a last minute thing, I drew one and the guy made it awesome with the shading...plus, I think he's going to read his four-year-old the Animorphs books to see if he likes them :P He seemed very interested in the shades of grey and morality that Animorphs has...and it clearly made an impact on us if we're getting tattoos of it! XD
-
Yay for animorphs tattoos! Anitats? Anitoos? Hmmm...
I like that shop and the artists there are super talented. For me, it will be worth driving 5 hours to have them do larger, more detailed work.
I think ima have Schmo do the hbc pic on my thigh I was talking about.
Can't wait to start bonusing at work.. I know where my extra money is going!

i'd like to see the drawing he does before he puts it on (can he do that without you going there?)
-
I wrote a review of the place on Google, it was THAT good x3 Hmmm now to find someone just as good here in Bouldah...
EDIT:
Sent in the tattoo design to Michael Grant and K.A., they liked it! I can now die happy, lulz. ;D
-
what'd they say? nice :D
-
"Okay, that is pretty cool. I just showed it to Katherine. She's stretching out on the floor while I sit here watching the TV news and drinking Bourbon. (Oh, yeah: it's total glamor.)
Hey, did you know Scholastic is re-releasing Animorphs? The first 2 books come out in spring of 2011 with something called "lenticular" covers. Yeah, we don't know what it means, either. But they tell us it's cool.
Nice tat.
MG and KA"
Hope they don't mind me reposting e-mails of super secretiveness! I e-mailed them back and told them I'd sent in some video for the Scholastic meeting and yadda yadda, thanked them for the reply and all that :)
Yayyy :D
-
The pic link is broken for me, but y'all sent me the pics right after getting them, so I know what they look like... which is awesome. :D
And also awesome that they wrote back! Yay!!!
-
Yay! And they don't appear to think I'm a total nutcase! XD I love their sense of humor, they're so totally normal yet they always manage to make me laugh :P
I don't have Patty's (repost it my dear!) but here is mine:

just have to say: love this.
-
Yayy! Thanks patric! ;D
-
I'm jealous. :)
I can't wait to get my RAF tattoo.
-
Nice ink Tara, I love the <Hope> quote too. :)
-
I am so getting an Animorph tattoo now.
-
Haha, well if you do, please tell us about it! :D Do you have any tattoos right now?
-
I sure will! Yeah, I have two. A wonky looking raptor on my wrist and two snails looking happy on my right ankle :)
-
Ooh, neat! :D By raptor do you mean bird of prey, or Velociraptor? My other tattoo is an Archaeopteryx on my back xD
-
Like, a veliciraptor. I've always loved dinosaurs and last December I was just pissed off with somebody and (naturally..) thought, "Screw it, I'll get a tattoo."
(http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x62/redpinioned/DSCF7935-1.jpg)
I just googled an Archaeopteryx. How awesome is that! I bet it looks great :)
-
Oh, your raptor is totally epic! I study vert. paleo. at CU-Boulder, great to have another dinosaur enthusiast on RAF! There's probably a picture of my Archie tattoo on the tattoo thread...can't quite remember where the thread is...general board maybe?
-
I wanna get so many tattoos... I just need money.
Thats a cool tattoo btw Red. :)

-
Oh, sweet Patty! Yeah tell us what you're getting!
On the 23rd (this week) I'm getting my Archaeopteryx tattoo touched up a bit, just a few fixes and additions to the skull, feet and wings to make it a little more like the original skeleton.
-
Uh. So jealous. Still trying to decide on my tattoos, but I have to say I LOVE the < hope > font and sentiment :) Awesome, guys!
