David Côté sends us these knuckle tattoos and the following story:
Here’s my tattoo. It says Bros B4 Hoes and think some of our friends forget the meaning of these words of wisdom. I did this with 4 of my friends (we are a “wolfpack”) and I’ve done it in a place where I see it everyday so i’ll be sure to remind me the whole meaning.
Paul Batchelor sends us theses knuckle tattoos all the way from London, England:
I’ve wanted to get my knuckles tattooed for years but have always been restricted by working in the corporate world.. Until I was diagnosed with a long term illness I couldn’t work any longer due to stress triggering my illness and the symptoms of my illness. Last year I met Gordon a tattooist here in London he covered up a mistake I made the year before and since then he has done a full sleeve for me. Through out my break down and my illness I have been supported by my wonderful caring parents and I wanted to honour them by having them put on my skin and the idea for my knuckles came to light.. I got the heart because I love my parents dearly and the star at the end because they both truly stars in my darkest of days. I now volunteer at trojan tattoo and love the work done on my knuckles they are my pride and joy! My mum loves them my dad isn’t too sure but appreciates the sentiment :) They are still currently healing and the pictures where taken right after the work was done.
Alex Colding-Jørgensen of Denmark sends us the following:
Just had my knuckles done after about a year of thinking!
I chose STAR WARS for several reasons:
- being that they are the most awesome movies ever made (Episode 2,3,4,5,6 that is.. i still don’t really dig episode 1)
- my mom and stepdad just split after 20 years together, and my stepdad was the one to introduce me to STAR WARS, so this is my way of showing him that he will allways be a big part of me even now that his not with my mom.
The picture is taken 2 days after they where done, by Thomas “el rondo” Lock from Stigmata Tattoo (Copenhagen, Denmark)
Hi, My name is Casy Diaz and i have wanted my knuckles tattooed for a long time, I am an artist at Horns & Tails tattoo parlor in Rochester NY. I grew up loving Michael Jackson, and Thriller is my favorite album, so when i realized it fit on my knuckles, that’s really all it took to make me do it. ME and my boss made a date to close down the shop and tattoo each others knuckles, they were done by Christine Erickson. The picture is old and the red fell out a bit, but i plan on outlining it in black next time. i do not regret this tattoo, its a great conversation piece :)
Corz of Queensland, Australia sends us these knuckles and the following explanation:
Pretty self explanatory, got WHAT UP YO because its something I say a lot and thought it would get a smile when people saw it. Also have an 8 and 3 on my thumbs. They were done at seperate times as my favourite numbers. But also make up the year I was born. Faded to hell now and need redoing though.
I met Dan today at the skatepark. We skated for a while and then I noticed his knuckle tattoos. When I asked him about them his story was basically, he was hanging out with his friends and one of them had a tattoo gun, so he has a variety of small home tattoos. He got drunk one day and woke up with HELL BENT. He guesses that maybe they were listening to Judas Priest.
