The Energon Pub

Got it back on Dec. 19th.

No surprise of what it is of.

Looks killer bro!

Dedication

I'm still waiting on getting a 'con emblem. can't decide if i want just the decepticon emblem or the cobra/con emblem from the crossover previews

Thanks. I've been contemplating getting a tat for awhile now and decided it was time to do so. Found a really great place 15 minutes down the road and it was the owner who did mine.

It is funny because at the end he said, "I'll see you later. Tattoos are like potato chips; you can't have just one." and now I'm already thinking about what to get as my second.

You started off with a combiner leader, this shouldn't be hard!

Technically, it is the combiner. It is the chest of Predaking from the Lithograph showing him pulverizing Defensor and Superion.

He's right. The second my first one was done, I called my bank to see how much money I had. Sadly, I didn't have enough money to get another one. I still only have one tattoo, but ever since then(its been little over exactly a year now, got it on 12-31-07) I've been dying for another one. Just don't have the money

oN THAT nOTE, tO ALL FRIENDS HERE ON sEIBERTRON WHO LIVE IN mIAMI AREAS, THEY HAVE SOME TATTOO PLACES DO "BUY ONE, GET ONE TATTOO FREE". I DONT KNOW ON WHAT BASE THAT WORKS, BUT IT MIGHT BE INTERESTING TO CHECK THAT OUT.

How much do they cost? I don't want one but I'm just asking.

This one cost $140. From what I hear, I got a good deal.

Mine cost $80. I gave the guy a $20 tip, so in total I spent $100. I've looked at the inks and equipment costs, its a reasonable price. Never go to someone's house to get a tattoo. No matter what anyone says, its just stupid to do that.

Agreed.

But the guy that claims his van is his "shop" is completely safe, i promise.

Does said van also have strobe lights, a disco ball, and is playing "Frankenstein"? That's the only way you know it is safe.

Well, when the Van will screech off its tires after You paid The man, then You know it was safe (Smirk) lmao.

Be careful...it's addicting as hell. I started with one, in one year I had four, and now I'm up to 17, and three of those are big tribal pieces. the only space I have left is my lower left arm...I'm saving that for a mural of a Wing Zero Gundam, G1 Megatron, and a VF-1S from Macross. Maybe an Eva 01 also, if I have room.

I have three (or four, if you count the mirror image one on the other side of my chest as two), and I have to say it really is worth a bit more to go to a well known artist, not just a legal shop.

One of mine got ripped off in an accident (right upper arm) but even before that, the inks had been starting to feather and blue. I'd gotten that in a 'decent' shop in California. Think the guy called himself 'Spud'.

The ones on my chest were done by Bill Claydon himself and show no signs of fading/feathering/bluing, etc. The ink depth is perfectly even, and they healed faster and better than any of my others. And he didn't charge much more than anyone else (he kept knocking down the price, probably because I had to be topless for him to do the work!)

Just my measly cents.

HK, inky.

Looks grrrrrreat! (Yeah, I know it's a lion not a tiger, but )

I have been thinking about getting one, though it'd be an Autobot. I just can't pick between a few select ones:

The Autobot symbol

Grimlock

Grimlock's head with his sword behind it

It's going on my bicep, which has significant room.
