They are very beautiful and well done. Along with the kanji. It's best to get a Japanese artist for things like kanji, so they don't f*ck it up. I'd like to meet Ai =]

while this is on the topic of tattoos, anyone here with the ability to draw dragons[asian type dragons] really well?

Yea i understand if your from a different country then they are strict about certain things. The thing is my Father is not the average Vietnamese man.

He was labeled a traitor to his country and a rebel for not fighting in a war he did not believe in, also the same war which took most of his family including my grandfather.

He was always the type that would break the boundaries of what would be deemed normal in vietnamese culture.
During my entire life, he never put any rules or boundaries on me. I could do what ever i want, w/o consequences.

But he would lecture me in his philosophies in life and spend a lot of time with me being my friend and a great father figure. At the same time he came to America not knowing any English working multiple jobs just to support my poor family who lived in a trailer park in Pa.

So it was never in my nature to disappoint my parents and just finding the right thing to do my self. And what ever i did, i knew they supported me.

The tattoo was a lil big in his opinion but the meaning behind it justified it.
Nice tats Housetek^^ I'm loving 'em.
And my deepest respect for your father. He's a damn hero who believes in what he chose to do. We need more people like your father these days^^.
Take care and we'll talk again.

Be careful cause when you get pregnant it might stretch causing stretch marks afterwards( messing up tattoo) Waist is a place that gets wider during pregnancy, I know many girls who had stretch mark problem .







I try to run away, forget it all…
The years pass, but pain remains.
These memories are like a thorn
Embedded deep in my heart…
It’s draining me drop by drop.
I can’t stop thinking about the past
The pain is too great, to just let it pass..
