I called a friend of mine with a full back and she said I definitely won't lose out on work. She noted a few girls who have full backs, including herself. She got a centerfold in Premium with her back as the main focus...

Like I KNOW this is a DAMN cool tat. Even the parlour was excited to see it and loved the idea... and they tat everything!

It's in my head...has been for YEARS.... I just...

I don't know if I can... I... I'm freaking out.

I won't lose work.

But I keep feeling like once I finally make it to the point where I have VERY visible and virtually uncoverable tattoos...I won't be beautiful anymore.

I don't either. :(

I also feel bad going up to the guy and saying, "Look, I just can't do it. I'm too freaking chicken. I want to wait until I retire from a looks-based industry." Like, I know even HE was looking forward to it. He kept saying it'll be his best piece yet. He was so excited.

I know I'll get it done someday. I know it. I just don't think now is the time.

I think I'll get my power button fixed up instead. I'm ready for that.

I hope he doesn't mind suddenly having a few full days open. Someone out there will love that.

I always visualized this tattoo as my reward for making it through this industry.

I made this appointment 6 months ago (he's a busy freaking artist) and thought I'd have calmed down on the idea by now. I guess I didn't.

I think I'll keep it as my reward. It'll be how I go into the business world - with a very large memory of who I was and who I'll be.

THAT'S when I should do it.

Only then.

One of the dancers invited me to go out with her and her friends Wednesday to gamble. To celebrate her birthday. Her 23rd birthday. She prolly won't text or call but I'm just flattered she'd think to invite me.

OMG! I just found the tattoo (or well it will the inspiration) that I will eventually get done in re Bibs.

Thank you Darcy!

Don't worry Lysondra. I don't have one tattoo because I like the fact that I'm one of the very very few strippers with NO tattoos (virgin skin).. and it works for me in the clubs as well.. so I'm also waiting for a time when I'm not dependent upon my bare body for income.

I have them all planned.. have had them planned for many many years now.

A daffodil with 26 feb 99 written on the stem in memory of my mother.
A cat (similiar to the image above) in memory of Bibs .. with her name and birth year/death year written as she was a huge part of my life for 14 years plus the first ever cat I had 100% responsibility for .. and everything.
The scorpio zodiac symbol as I'm very much my sun (star) sign
A black outline of Australia with "Australia Made" written within over my birthmark as I've always said my birthmark looks like the map of Australia! :) without tassie as tassie "floated away" (by which time i'm pointing to my vagina lol!)
The HORSE chinese zodiac sign or even just a horse somewhere.
A butterfly as unlike a lot of other people it's meaning is lifelong.. Vanessa means butterfly.. any baby names book will tell you plus it is a huge animal totem for me.

Yet I want to get all this done as a way to mark my transition from one part of my life which was a big part of my life into whatever.. as like you Lysondra.. I will be able to cover these tattoos up :)


Congrats on making the decision that is right for you. I agree that you should wait to get such major work done as a way to 'mark' a milestone in your life :)

I said INSPIRATION ... I wasn't going to use the actual picture itself as I'm not a fan of "cutsey" tattoos ... It's the crown, with the swirls and banner that inspired me.. As I always referred to Bibs as Queen Bibs.. and other "Queen-ly" mannerisms.

I'm not stealing. I'm using it for inspiration. I might use the crown and banner.. not those swirls.. and not exactly that cutsey cat face as that isn't Bibs..

now stop fuming.. people use other peoples' images and tattoos as inspiration for thier own stuff all the damn time.. jeeze people.. calm down!

:)

Darcy Foxx
02-26-2008, 01:42 AM
hmph. the cat with a crown was still my idea.

going to have to find something else now.

GoldCoastGirl
02-26-2008, 01:47 AM
OMG.. are you joking? You're chucking a hissy over something like this when you said YOURSELF most of your tattoos don't have much meaning...

I was thinking about a crown over a cat (a black cat side profile sort of thing) with banner underneath ANYWAY in memory of Bibs.. jeeze!

Besides, what would you do if someone saw your tattoos on GGs and loved one or two of them so much that they got the exact same ones?!?

That does happen.. I've known people who have seen tattoos on other people.. gotten hold of an image of that tattoo.. and gotten the exact same one...

Don't be so childish Darcy. Go get it. I won't be getting my tattoos done for years yet anyway... and by that time I probably would've changed the design again.. yet have the banner and the crown above the cat ( a queenly crown ) is on the cards.

I can't stop the fact that I did refer to my beloved (late) cat as "My Queen" and "Who I Gladly Serve" etc.. sheesh.

*sigh*

Tattoos, even when they don't have meaning, are very personal, Vee. I would be really upset if I posted a pic of my tattoo and someone said thanks for the inspiration when they were getting it themselves. Hell, a friend of mine copied my power button... I know a FUCKTON of people have ppower buttons... but the fact she did it a mere 3 weeks after I did mine and used me as an example when she got it just PISSED me off. And it's a pretty common tattoo.

It's an etiquette thing more than a 'stealing' thing.

GoldCoastGirl
02-26-2008, 02:02 AM
Um. I must be weird or something as I was raised to believe that if someone used you or anything about you as inspiration or copy-cated you... it's a compliment. I would have been honoured that I inspired someone else in re some 'ink' .... it means I made a mark in their life or something.

So.. mentioning the fact that I was planning to do something similar ANYWAY last year long before she posted that picture means nothing?

I just explained a whole heap of my tattoos and meanings... yet if someone did something similar due to my post.. that my post inspired them.. I wouldn't be insulted.

Have you just NOT read a word I've been "saying" .. I used it as inspiration. I don't want the cutsey cat face nor the swirls (most likely) tho' the crown was most likely the only thing I would take away from that image and use as I was ALREADY PLANNING TO USE the banner and picture of a cat of some sort on top of the banner.

The crown just reminds me of how much I adored "serving Her Highness Queen Bibs" :) I adored that cat.. she left a huge imprint on my psyche and life.. and I want to honour her with a tattoo eventually.

It is also years away. You will most likely have forgotten about this conversation by that time anyway... so really.. everyone is making a bigger deal of this than I expected.

:O

Lysondra
02-26-2008, 02:10 AM
Yeah but that's you and not the general tattoo population. Tattoos are very personal and lifelong. Copying someone's hair, dress or lipstick shade may be a compliment (if not borderline creepy), but in the tattoo industry it's basically ripping off 'art' as people view their bodies are their canvas. To steal an idea from an artist is wrong, as well. And with Darc planning her tattoo (art) to be on her body (canvas), it's an insult to use her as an inspiration. I'm just trying to explain how the tattoo industry sees it.

I would be highly offended if someone stole my back piece idea and might even remove my mention of it. It's my art, my meaning, my idea.

And saying you're going to use the image and omg thanks is different than just saying, "Oh I've thought about getting something similar to that to honour Bibs!'.. you just blatantly instead said you'd be using that image for better visualizationa nd inspiration instead.

GoldCoastGirl
02-26-2008, 02:33 AM
I shooted my original reply from the hip which means that i typed it without thinking .. i reacted so strongly because i was always planning on a tattoo to honour Bibs anyway.. and that image just reminded me so strongly of my whole "Queen Bibs" thing.. and the crown (a queenly crown) was the missing piece of my tattoo for Bibs.. that's all.

( i realise that now .. and i'm sorry .. i do thank darcy for that pic as she has helped me.. why wouldn't she take that as a compliment ? i would!)

As this thread progressed, I thought about my actual tattoo more and more ... and came clearer as to what I wanted... and thus I did use it as inspiration.. it helped me cement in my mind exactly what i want for a tattoo in re Bibs.

Something I have always wanted and is close to my heart. Gosh.. we all know by now how much she meant to me... *sigh*

I will have a queenly crown on top of some sort of slender black cat image (as she was a slender brindled yet black cat) with her name and birth/death years in the banner.. I may change it yet again when i finally get it from a banner to something else... however that is definitely the tattoo i want to get in re Bibs. ;D

Oh.. I forgot to mention i want a garfield tattoo-ed on me as well. still deciding on the image for that one.. suggestions welcome :)


ETA: If people did view their bodies as a canvas then why are there just so so many common tattoos? People do and will always copy tattoos they have seen on someone else onto themselves for whatever reason. I'm not copy-ing that tattoo.. as I explained above.. it helped me cement what I exactly wanted... so where is the problem here? I still think a bigger deal was made of this than should have been made.. *sigh*

If its a Ragdoll or has Ragdoll or similar breeding in it... don't be alarmed.

Otherwise, no harm in getting a check up for the cat.

I think I might have to do so for Tiger tomorrow :(

She just hasn't been putting on weight.. I'm afraid that the AWL (shelter) will eventually help her transition due to it.. Sooty the other foster kitten is healthy... Tiger is still so boney... and not putting on weight.. and not eating a heap.. and now is throwing up.. argh!

I was joking. It's Mogget. the 'flop cat'. She's really super insanely floppy. And not a ragdoll! She's a Moggie... a floppy moggie... and flops... and bends...and longflop is long.

Yay for going to work with only 4 hours sleep.

Sure, other people do that all the time. But not me. Not me!

Ugh. At least I'm super funnier when I'm super tired. Or my friends laugh at me more. That's the same as being funnier, right?

Looks like everyone is having sleep issues this morning. Must be in the water. And by "water" I mean "The Random Thread".

Nothing in the fridge for breakfast. That means coffee and cinnamon roll from the coffee shop down the street.

I hope you still get this one - it's super pretty. Where were you thinking of? I used to be all about the symmetry but I'm starting to get lopsided.


i'm thinking maybe on my chest now. a cat on each side of my chest, and saving the pirate swords & leopard print hearts for each shoulder blade, so i can a) get them bigger and b) use them as a cover-up for a shitty tattoo i already have there!

Yes, this isn't usual for me. If I hadn't taken the keys to the work van home with me by mistake, I would've called in. But they're going to need the van today, sooooooo, off I go.
