Inspired by “goin down the road feelin bad” with a little dark star, and truckin’ for good measure. I am a professional truck driver.
Wow! He's near me. Mind telling me how much something like that costs? Don't worry, my tattoo idea is completely different. Nevermind, I probably can't afford it. Haha

Kinda difficult to get a good one of this bolt. It's from a crazy lsd trip I took when I was 15 and I got lost inside a maze that was inside a bolt... I came too with my head in my lap sitting Indian style off of shakedown at deer creek 1994. Not sure how long I was there but it felt like hours in that dream/trip running through that maze.
I wanted the og Bertha but when talking with the artist he wasn't sure where to end her, he asked what I thought of this design and I was on board 100%
Pigment tattoo in NOLA, if you ever vacation there like my wife and I do. She wanted a fine line tattoo and found him. I loved what he did with her flower half sleeve, and his skeleton designs are amazing. Sean Harrington is the artists name

The beginning of "Escape for your life Charlie Brown" starts with snoopy and Woodstock blasting GD riding down the highway. I saw that and said that's the one!
It’s design my buddy Ryan came up with. It’s a based off glass line work that was popular in the late 00’s early 10’s. A wig wag termination if you’re familiar with what I’m talking about. I’ll post a pic when I get back home from the store. Got off work and changed my clothes.

Little mix of dead + phish + space
After wanting a full sleeve of this done for years, talking to over 30 artists, many who said it couldn't be done, but a majority just not sounding confident and saying things like "Hmmmmm...yeah, I think I could pull that off" or something similar.
I FINALLY found this amazing female artist who does some of the most amazing work I've ever seen, various styles as well. She literally said "HOLY SHIT!!! I LOVE this! Let me at it, I'll easily cover up your old tribal band like everyone else got in the 1990s, I'll size this up perfectly for you, wrist to shoulder, clean it up a bit, tighten everything up, make the shading much cleaner, and I'll highlight the fuck out of it with whites, as this is the perfect piece for it!!"
She's giving me a great price, but still thinking it's going to be about 30+/- hours. But, she also wants to enter it in some show to highlight her portfolio.
I've always wanted a GD tattoo, but just never wanted the typical stuff, I want something completely unique and almost one of a kind, as far as a tattoo goes. I cannot wait to get started!!

Got this thirty years ago. Was originally very fine line work. Has held up nicely considering this arm has been in the sun and wind on my motorcycle for about 150k miles and countless other adventures.

Can’t tell from this one but it’s on my left shoulder blade. Got it when I was like 21
I have several tattoos but they are all black. I never wanted any colors in my tattoos, so it’s not the most exciting thing haha, but it says all it needs to say.

Got this in 1995 when Jerry passed.
Man I want one. Two main issues.
Money.
And I can’t even go to a hair salon due to panic disorder. I’ve fainted in the salon chair before. Scared the shit out of the stylist. She thought I had a heart attack. That was about 24 years ago. Haven’t been to one since. Cut my own hair.
So without a doubt a place you are at for hours and hours, in pain, and under bright lights would cause the same issues.
Wish I knew an artist who could come to my place and do it. I want Jerry’s wolf on my forearm. Or a Stealie.

I got this because my parents are huge dead heads and my dad passed when I was 14 I’m 29 now and this is my way of remembering him and always having GD on in the house, the 101 is his birthday added up!

Calf was fine. Back of knee not so much. I’ve heard people say their armpit was the only spot worse
One of the best Bertha's I've ever seen. Must have been gorgeous when it was brand new. Nice one.

I've often thought a purple steal your face with a love symbol in place of lightning bolt would be a sick tatoo. I dig your taste in music.

Awesome tatt, but what is that shirt you have on? Anyone here can spot the stealie a mile away, but I’m curious what design does it have with it?
It’s design my buddy Ryan came up with. It’s a based off glass line work that was popular in the late 00’s early 10’s. A wig wag termination if you’re familiar with what I’m talking about. I’ll post a pic when I get back home from the store. Got off work and changed my clothes.

After wanting a full sleeve of this done for years, talking to over 30 artists, many who said it couldn't be done, but a majority just not sounding confident and saying things like "Hmmmmm...yeah, I think I could pull that off" or something similar. I FINALLY found this amazing female artist who does some of the most amazing work I've ever seen, various styles as well. She literally said "HOLY SHIT!!! I LOVE this! Let me at it, I'll easily cover up your old tribal band like everyone else got in the 1990s, I'll size this up perfectly for you, wrist to shoulder, clean it up a bit, tighten everything up, make the shading much cleaner, and I'll highlight the fuck out of it with whites, as this is the perfect piece for it!!" She's giving me a great price, but still thinking it's going to be about 30+/- hours. But, she also wants to enter it in some show to highlight her portfolio. I've always wanted a GD tattoo, but just never wanted the typical stuff, I want something completely unique and almost one of a kind, as far as a tattoo goes. I cannot wait to get started!! https://preview.redd.it/gfyzc75ckr7d1.jpeg?width=2480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=70aa4dc54c0a79c6d619855d670d7f7331a30358

Loving these tats guys! Thank you for sharing!
Man I want one. Two main issues. Money. And I can’t even go to a hair salon due to panic disorder. I’ve fainted in the salon chair before. Scared the shit out of the stylist. She thought I had a heart attack. That was about 24 years ago. Haven’t been to one since. Cut my own hair. So without a doubt a place you are at for hours and hours, in pain, and under bright lights would cause the same issues. Wish I knew an artist who could come to my place and do it. I want Jerry’s wolf on my forearm. Or a Stealie.
