Kewl- you hear a lot of people doing it as memorials. Glad your daughter can enjoy Daddy's love.

Very nice... looks like a "KAT" tat.

Actually it was done in Gastonia,NC. A great guy that does awesome stuff. He was featured in a magazine.

I've been meaning to get a piece of work done for the last two years, but have been hesitant from not being able to find anything so meaningful thats to stay with me for life. That above is as meaningful as they come. - monochrome is also the way to go :)

Thanks. Go for it. I am gonna go back soon for a tat of a tiger ripping thru my skin kinda look. Just remember as people told me tats can get addictive.

I am not expert on tatoos but I would say the artist did a great job.
