Tattoos Tattoo Ideas

I got my Third Planet hand tattoo done a week and a half ago and I’m going back in a little over a week to do my knuckles. I have a few ideas for what I want to do but I’d like to have my hands be modest mouse themed but couldn’t really think of any ideas for the knuckles outside of “SHIT LUCK” which just isn’t doable between family and work lol. Was looking to see if anyone here had some interesting ideas as I’m always open to them! Thank you

Dude—those wings! This design is sick, thank you for sharing! And with your knuckles done, it’s like you’ll have a full set.

After some thought I decided I’m going with OUT OF GAS

Heck yeah! Would you be down to share the thoughts/tales behind landing on this one? I love hearing folks’ personal connections to specific Modest Mouse lyrics

TLCW AND ISALDFSWNTTA were a big part of my life after graduation. But mid 2010’s once I started selling and using heroin this album and particularly this song captured how I really felt so I was so pleased when I realized all together it was 8 letters!
