Yankee Pride | My New Tattoo

Yankee Pride | My New Tattoo

Friends

For those of you who are my friends will know that I have been a New York Yankees fan for a long time, since Don Mattingly actually (notice the Yankee Blue in the header?). As with any team there are ups and downs and this is no different for my Yankees. I will not give up on them and why should I, we have the most money!

Forrest Pope

I really wanted to send everyone to a kickass website full of great tattoos and artwork, but unfortunately Forrest Pope is an artist without a webpage. Oh well, he will have to start with my tattoo.

I really wanted the Yankees logo on my leg, so I gave it to Forrest and let him come up with a design. I am very happy with the detail and finished work.

Thanks Forrest.

    looks nice…how’d it feel?

    The top part was the worse. It took less than 3 hours, with little stops to change ink color. Shading the red on the top, ouch..

  3. I know I told you somewhere I love it. Bright and vivid colors. I like the scene with the letters. Very creative.

    It is yours for a lifetime…enjoy! You will.

      Yeah, I had a lot of messages, so I couldn’t get to them all. Was going to try this morning. I am really happy with the tat, and the city inside looks great. So you’ve been playing a lot of golf lately?

  4. Dude, that is SICK!

    The city scape and sky are really cool.

    And that’s coming from a born and raised Bostonian / Sox fan.

    Jim, You just left a comment on my blog so I’m reciprocating.
    I really like your blog theme that you just created yourself.
    There’s only one big problem I can see with the whole thing.

    I’m a die hard Red Sox fan.

    Just a little kidding between the biggest rivalry in sports.
    Really, nice tat.

    Later,

    @Adam – Thanks man, I am really happy with it and going to try and talk Forrest into a website…

    @Jeff – Thanks. Let me know when you update your theme. I lived on the Cape for a while and have quite a few friends who are my sworn enemies, but only for half the year!

    Great cityscape, I like that..

    Very nice work!

    Hi Jim – I’m not a huge tattoo fan. I change my mind about stuff, so I’d wind up trying to change something I didn’t like anymore – kind of like how Johnny Depp had to Change his Winona Forever tattoo to Wino Forever.

    But I like this one – it’s v artistic. I like how he’s incorporated the buildings of New York into the lettering.

    That’s a good one. I don’t think I will hate the Yankees, so I should be good. I was really happy with Forest’s design..
