As Tattoosport seems to have had a few tattoo threads over the years, I thought i'd post my new (first) one up.
Got it yesterday here in Australia.
It reads 'If you're going through hell, keep going" which is a quote by Winston Churchill and has lately been used in a song by The Streets (who I hate).
The quote to me means a hell of a lot and its something that ive wanted tattooed on me for years now.
Dead chuffed with it even if it is a bit bigger than i'd first anticipated.

The lines look really smooth, I would be happy.
I wouldn't worry what Balling thinks to tbh, he posted up a friends convinced it was photoshopped the other day, bit strange..

You've kind of got your facts wrong, but I'm sure it'll be massively reassuring either way.

It annoys me that the apostrophe in you're and the dot on the i look like 1 and 2. And that there's no continuity between the dots on both i's and the swirls on the g's.
To be honest, I just don't really like it haha. Sorry.

I dont expect everyone to like it. Its mine and i love it. I guess thats the broad spectrum of opinions that tattoos seem to create.

Exactly. Just like modifying cars, if you like it that's the main thing.

Looks like the sort of thing a 15 year old girl would like on her wrist.

Since stan mentions there's been several threads over the years about tattoos then I assume he knows the way most of them go
It looks ok. Not a quote I would've had with that Streets association mind, but looks well done anyway and the 'continuity' thing wouldn't bother me.

Reminds me of call of duty. Seen the quote a few times on the loading screen after dying whilst playing it on veteran difficulty.

Messy looking tattoo. Far too fussy.
Chop your arm off. It's for the best...

Nice quote I guess. Maybe a different font would have worked better

I quite like it I prefer script that doesn't have continuity, my only gripe with it is the bit under hell and keep ,it's not needed/ill placed, and I'm not a fan of the shadowing on the letters, just personal opinion though I've been trying to learn tattoo script and it's really difficult to master.
