my tattoos

Okay so someone suggested that I make a blog of all my tattoos, and you know what, I figured "why not?" I actually have a whole page on my Tumblr for my tattoos so most of this is basically copied and pasted from that page.

I have a grand total of 18 tattoos. I have 2 collages of 8 tattoos each and then one mini-collage of the last 2. I would love to make a long post with individual pictures of all of them, give a little explanation about all of them (eg. why I chose that tattoo, that location, etc.) but frankly, that will take a lot of work. So maybe one day I will take the time to do that, but in the meantime, since I already have these collages and this Tumblr page, I'm going to use them.

Following each collage, I have added a list of all my tattoos in the order I got them. The tattoos are not listed in order in the collages, since the collages were based on sizes, location (eg. if some were close to each other, they're in the same frame), orientation, etc.
