Well... just the outline. I have to wait 2 weeks to get the color. I chose this one because the bear is my native american totem.

Well, I couldnt find my camera cord, so me and my wife took some pics while we were down at her moms house.

ok here we go...

Here it is.. just the outline of course. Not my best pic :shock:

This is a pic of the tat my wife Jenny got while I was getting mine. It is her name, my son Devon's, and mine in chinese characters.

Great looking tattoo, Sam! I thought about getting one, but I prefer keeping my artwork on paper (less propensity to sag in time... :hehe: )

Sorry to hear about your run-in with the bear Phil, but glad you made it okay!

I was attacked by a bear when I was 17 and lived to tell the story. i would never get a tatto of a bear, but I suppose you got a good reason!

P

Ive actually had two run in... Once left me with a scratched knee.. the other left a nice dent in my truck. The area(s_ I live and camp at have a high bear population.

graywolf... I am a body builder, although I am some what skinny right now, my arms get to be twice the size they are now. I asked the guy that did it how that will affect it and all he had to say was that it will look bigger and the color might fade.

Oh, and by the way I am jewish and it is against my religion to get tattoos or piercings... although I have both now. As you can see... Im not very religious...

My mom is going to kill me!!! D-:

repent and accept JESUS!

Not to start a religios war, lol, but Jesus was a jewish rabbi... I accept him as that :)

Make sure you keep that thing lubed up for a few days ;)

Preparation H or else a vitamin D lotion. when washing it DONT scrub. you need to pat it.

and in a couple days when it scabs up and starts to itch..leave it alone. pat it if you have to but DONT scratch it.

Congrats :)

I have 9 myself...its been awhile since I got one though so I think ive covered the basics for aftercare.

I'm not a fan of tattoos (on me, hehe), but if I ever get one it'll be a personal symbol; something that has a deep emotional connotation or meaning. Your choice looks great, and has a meaning. Good! :).

Nice tattoo. I think it would look better without the claw, but just my opinion.

Yeah, I'm with ya on that. :)

Not to change the subject completely but since we're talking bear attacks, totems, Jesus and Rabbi's... did anyone see that movie "Grizzly Man?"

Did you already get the tattoo? If so can you take a pic of that?
I think the actual drawing will look different than the finished product.

But, a nice tat for sure.

My wife took a few pic while I was getting it done, but I cant find the usb cord for the camera so I can upload em. I may have to go get another one.

Pretty cool, I'm thinking about getting one too but a smaller b/w. I just don't know where to look for designs, do you guys know websites for that?

http://tattoofinder.com is a good place as well as http://rankmytattoo.com (just to get ideas). Also, if you go into a good shop, they will have a large selection of pre-drawn tats and most will draw custom designs.

Before you start searching for a design, know what you want. It will mean more if you find one that you've really been looking for
