Disney Tattoos

[Tinker_]

Alright so I'm new to the board but I'm looking for help. I'm an 18 yr old male and all of my friends have recently been getting tattoo's. It's tempted me enough to at least start thinking about some ideas. I really have no idea on where to even start so I was wondering if you guys could help me out.

I play baseball, I'm Irish, my favorite character is Stitch.

Any suggestions are helpful. Thanks

Here is my advice for you Make sure you LOVE what you are getting, dont go pick something off of a wall. And make yourself wait at least 6 months before you get it.. if you still want it in six months, go for it. AND I am just speaking from experience, bc when I was 18, it seemed like a really good idea to get the Barbie logo tattooed on my butt, lol!

My tat in the works is Walt Disney's siggy, for my shoulder. I dont want black ink though, and was thinking more of a skin tone type color.. any ideas peeps?

Well here is my new tattoo. Keep in mind I just had it down like 3 hrs ago so some of the stencil can still be seen in the pixie dust. It will look a little different once the stencil washes away. I love it though.....look I am a hidden(kinda) mickey!

LOVE it!!!

I couldn't agree more. My brother and I got "matching" tattoos to honor my grandfather...I am really hating mine and going to have it covered up. I love the rest of mine but didn't put enough thought into this one. BE SURE!!!

ha! Yeah, it's embarrasing- and I really did get it to, I am just thankful it is where no one see's it!

Argh, you guys have really got me thinking about adding another tattoo! I LOVE the idea of a Mickey tattoo. I love Disney and I'm a former Cast Member! I already have 6 (my newest tattoo is my son's footprints from birth) so I've already been inked!

So I got to thinking about the Mickey ideas and I thought of one I have doodled. Here's my doodle, and I'm thinking it's a start. What do you think? (Sorry it's so small, it's doodled on an index card and I cropped out my confirmation info for our next trip to WDW!)

That would make a really cute tat,i think.

I just have never figured out what melody I wanted on the staff. Hmm, I could do it on the front of my left ankle....thinking, thinking.

"When you wish upon a star...."

Boy U do have alot...LOL I like them where I can see but where they can be covered, formal wedding reception this friday and not really the occassion to have it show. I am thinking something cute for my other foot and small. U are the second person I heard did footprints from their child. I think that is so cool....wish I would have thought of that before, way cool!

I was going to get my kids foot prints for my last tatoo. I wanted my son's with the toes light blue and then progress to dark blue, and my daughter's toes light pink and progress to dark pink. Didn't know how they would turn out though. Although I love my new castle tattoo and I am so glad that I went through with it!! I love how my husband's Maleficent dragon came out too. They healed up very nicely too!!

The melody I was thinking of for my music staff was either "When You Wish Upon a Star" or "A Dream Is Wish Your Heart Makes" to go along with my "dreams' tat.

I'm going to go tomorrow and get an opinion on a sketch I made today. I'm no artist, so I will see if I can get some help with my idea.

Thanks a lot for the advice. I've come up with one Disney idea and another idea for a Back to the Future tattoo. I really like my BTTF idea because it's my favorite movie. The only problem with the Disney idea is that people keep saying "Isn't that kind of childish?" I kind of expected that from most of my friends though since I'm kind of a jock and I listen to Hip-Hop mostly but whatever I love disney, and I always will so most likely this winter I'll get them both done and then I'll post some pictures up here.

No way! I think it is cool that you want something like that! We would all love to see your pics when you get them!

I got the ole "isn't Disney childish thing " too. But I said "NO" I love Disney and always have. I want to get another one...maybe on my other foot. Want it to read " All U need is a little faith, trust, & pixie dust!" with pixie dust around it! I just love that saying. Ok well that is my idea, unsure where I want to put it for sure...though I love the foot!

Why worry about what your friends think. My family is mostly "from the old country!" and they think tattoos are a disgrace, yet the one that I have of my parents pays respect to them and they cant even realize that. And as for anyone else, well i belong to a motorcycle club and when we are out i sometimes get ribbed for a disney tattoo until some of the girls see it and say things like "oh that is cute (like me LOL) or they tell the others to shut up because it is a sign of respect, or they even admire me for having the guts to have one and show it off! Just remember as long as you like it is all that counts. Think of it as hanging up a piece of art, some may like it and others may not, but its your house and if they dont like it they dont have to look.

I really like the Mom and Pop tattoo, it's nice. Yeah, I don't mind what my friends I probably won't talk to half of them in five years anyway. The sketch I drew isn't very good, I need a tat artist to sketch one out for me. I couldn't decide on a particular character so I just went with something to represent all of Disney, so I took the castle logo of Walt Disney Pictures. It also has my initials (BD) ,in the Disney font, overlapping the archway and the fireworks are the colors of the Irish flag. It should look pretty good once I get a professional to do it for me. I'd show you guys the sketch but I cant post any images until I have 10 posts.

Sounds great. Good luck with it...and remember if you have someone draw up your idea, dont settle for anything until it's exactly what you want. Cant wait to see it.

I took the tattoo artist my sketches today and he drew up some awesome designs for me. He saw I attempted to draw a castle and decided to draw one, too. He looked up the castle online & found the castle that's used for this year's Celebrate theme. So, I got my tattoo today...It only cost $30. He was awesome and said he enjoyed doing the castle for me. He's never been do WDW but would love to.
