C5 Photo Shoot w/New Tint - Memorial Tattoo Pics Too

I know this forum's for our Fbodies but you all know what the Z28 looks like with the Gazillion pictures I've posted!
I just finally did my first mod to it today and got some good shots of it in the sun.

As far as my tattoo goes, some of you probably remember me posting pictures of the portrait I drew and said that's what I was having tattooed on my chest........well I didn't get that one. The reason why is that I didn't really know my dad back when he looked like that. I was too busy drinking and drugging and we weren't on very good terms.

The other reason (which is the most important) is that the tattooist said it didn't have near enough detail for a true portrait tattoo. She was right....and yes I said she! This gal IMO is just as good if not better than KAT from Miami Ink. Anyway, I found a good one of him just before we found out he had cancer, so I used that one.

Well, as always.....I'm rambleing again!!! So Here's Da Pics Meng..........







.


























And here's a few pictures of the Memorial Tattoo I got in memory of my oldman dying. Sorry they're so big, I had to take them in the high pixel setting to get the clarity.

Thanks Bro!! I had that done by a little short gal no taller than 5 foot nothing at a place in Seattle. She's actually an award winning portrait tattooist that barely does an outline at all. She free handed 90% of it just from the picture I brought in.

I do have to make one more appointment with her though the next time I'm back up there so she can add a little more hair to the right side of his head. When I first got it (Sept. 25th) it looked like there was plenty of hair there, but after it peeled I was already down here in Southern Oregon.

No biggie though, she'll whip it out in about ten minutes. I plan on cruisin the Vette up there next month to take care of a few things I didn't get done before I left.

Thanks my Brutha!! I figured with you being into graphics and all the stuff you do, you'd definitely be one to appreciate the artistic aspect of it with all the detail it has.

The car's not too bad either I guess!

I envy your vette. B-e-a-utiful.

And from the point of view of another artist, that ink is superb.

Thanks guys, I do have quite few things planned for the car,.....the problem though is when it comes to buying them, I have to pay twice as much for everything. I can't believe how money they want for mods on these cars. I can get a Turbo Charger for the Z28 for around $3500, and to buy one for the Vette it's at least $7000. Oh well, I guess the more you play, the more you gotta pay.

the vette would look so much better if it were lowered like an inch and a half, the tattoo looks amazing man.
