Calling all NS artists: Tattoo designs

I've just turned 18, and I'm ready to cut the reigns from the padres and get tatted up.

I was wondering if someone could draw up a design to put on my body... forever. I'm thinking a K with a crown on it, on either my right side rib cage or my right side peck. My last name is Koenig, and in German it means King (hence the crown). I was thinking something similar to this

I want the K to be slimmer, and preferably diamond logos on the crown like thisClick for larger image

Also feel free to post your tattoos, and the ideas behind them and the stories that have come with them

Thanks NS!!!!

So, I'll just put this out there and it should go for any tattoo. Tattoo artists much prefer doing work that they designed rather than a sketch from, literally, some dude on the internet. If this is something you really want, be prepared to wait a bit. Find an artist in your area and make an appointment for a consultation, tell them what you want and let them sketch it up. Let them know how you like it and then get it done. The artist will be more stoked to do it and you might even end up with better responses than NS.

Go to a good artist whos style you like.
Go 'Hey this is my idea, do what you want with it'
Hey presto, sick tattoo. The best tattoos come from letting a great artist work with your idea, not some idiot on NS.
Most of the time when a kid comes in with a drawing the artists are like 'K, but I wanna redraw it'

Why doesn't anyone understand that tattoo artists can actually draw extremely well. Pick a tattoo artist, and work with them on what you want. That way they will have experience drawing it before they put it on your body and it will be the exact product you want. Having someone else draw it then take it in then re-draw it is just a waste of time when you can get a better finished product than from someone on a skiing website

Most german names were un germanized in america during the war so they wouldn't be raped by the neighbors, so they spell it koenig

Most names in general were changed during/after the war not just german names.

When I have more time I'll put a little more fur on the balls and really detail out the veins in some nice thick black lines... What kind of colors were you thinking for the shaft and tip?

You are absolutely free to get whatever tattoo your little heart desires, but I would judge the shit out of anyone I saw with a crown and diamond tattoo. I would imagine someone who gets that would also wear affliction T shirts and carve designs into their buzzcut.

Lose the crown: "Koenig, pronounced "Ko-nig," is a Jewish surname that originated in Germany. The word itself refers to a servant for the king and can also mean the leader of a craftsman's' guild."

I'm getting a tattoo of my maiden name because I'm losing it...but I see what you're saying to OP-- unless he is going to take his spouse's last name, he does already have it forever.

If two people with similar resumes show up to interview with me for a job, I'm going to hire the one without the neck tattoo.


Don't get a tattoo on your neck.
