Go for it! I would say go for a stylized one if you can. Make it more personal!

I really dig that one. That is about perfect, in my opinion. I would approve of having that on my shoulder.

Sweet ink.

 

[Jayhawk]

Awesome

Thanks, I think I'll keep her

I'm working with Stu @ Mercy Seat. He's done some work on my wife as well. He's really talented and a great guy. Most of the guys @ Mercy Seat are cool though, so I don't know that you could go wrong there.

BigOldHarry,
the biggest complaint from non-inkers is "you'll have to live with that the rest of your life"
Guys our age are half over anyway. Do it and enjoy it for the second half.

Absolutely not!

I have an artist that's working on some sketches for mine right now.... and I just turned 48.

Make sure that it's classy, quality work and fits your persona and you'll be fine.
