That is sooo nice, I'm getting the inners done on the small of my back, after I'm done having kids cause I am so not giving birth with out an epidural lol

may I ask why you picked to get a sailor moon tattoo?

Well I got it of her transformation as a metaphor for my own personal transformation. If you've watched all 200 episodes, you would notice how Usagi matures gracefully throughout the series. I find that the tat is symbolic of my personal transformation, perserverance, and maturation I have endured over the course of the past few years. I find that I identify personally with Usagi and like her believe strongly in "standing for love and justice". I also would do just about anything for my close friends.

:)

I can't wait to see pics of your tat when you get it! Be sure to send me a note my fellow moonie <3 :glomp:

will do and that is a very well thought out reason, definately worth the permident factor of a tattoo, and ya I made my fiancee sit down and watch all 200 episodes in japanese with me so he'd understand what I'd be talking about when it came to sailor moon LOL Ya I'm a lot like usagi, with the naive and believing in love will conquare all, and as little violence as possible thing, but Sailor-V is my favorite ^_^

Hehe a lot like Usagi you says? The two of us would get a long well then! :D

Sailor V is pretty cool...I like her little theme song...

And she was in charge of training all the scouts via video game ownage...heh

Do you plan on getting a tattoo in honor of Sailor Moon? If so, what of and where?

I am getting the 5 inners, on my lower back. The image I'm using is one from the one of the artbook collection's I have. All the girls are only wearing their necklaces and it's shoulders and up. But I'm making the colouring different from the anime colours I'm doing it so mar's hair is red, jupiter's green, venus orange-yellow, moon's white, and mercury's blue. But I won't be getting that tattoo until I'm done having kids because I want the option of an epidural LOL. I am also getting a sailor moon "themed" braclet tattoo with my daughters name in it. She also loves sailor moon (she's 2)

oh wow awesome I like the idea for coloring of the hair to match their signature auras...make sure you get a tattoo artist that is familiar with anime...because it is easy to botch up their faces...i've seen some less favorable SM tattoos in my day...that's why I took the safe route and got a silhouette....if I find someone who I really trust and has done anime work before then I might get that image of Usagi whose nude with wings...with a pensive expression...ala this one [link]

but I am definitely looking forward to seeing the sketch you come up with and then the actual tat!

Awww she loves SM too! She already has good taste :aww:

How will the bracelet be Sailor Moon themed?

ya my new tattoo artist has a fair bit of samples of anime tattoo's (probably part of why I picked him) and the whole tattoo parlor is japanese themed, it's like, heavenly, I wish I could show you, maybe I'll ask to take some pictures lol!!!

That pic of usagi is one of my favorites

my daughters braclet is based off this [link] I asked blkmagic if I could use it for that reason and got the okay, it was so perfect cause my original idea fell apart when I tried it out in sharpies on my arm, twas not as "elegant" as I wanted, but when I saw that it was perfect!

and the one on my back will be based off this pic [link]

Wow that bracelet tattoo is going to be awesome! You should post some pics! :: hands you digital camera::

Me too, doesn't it reflect how mature she becomes in the last season? She just looks deep in thought...

I think the one on your back is going to be really pretty, :)and I look forward to the finished product. Although it's based off of Naoko's art and I find the Usagi in the anime cuter hehe ^^;
