Cyclone tattoo suggestions

[minnclone99]

I want to get one when I graduate. I have thought about getting a tattoo that has to do with the "science with practice" thing on Hilton. (I'm an engineer) or maybe just go with good old Cy. I have a couple years to decide anyway...

You really can't go wrong with the electromagnetic wave equations...

That turned out pretty nice. Clean artwork.

If we go to a BSC bowl and elite 8 in the same year, I would consider getting ISU tatted on my man thing in big letters.

Your not a sissy. My brother in law was almost in tears when he got his on the shoulder blade. Ripvdub got pics of his bros face on the camera phone. Priceless.

I was thinking about getting a Cyclone tattoo but what I am not sure about is where I should get it. Any suggestions?

That would be my next question: where? I'm in M'town so the Ames/Des Moines area would be easiest but I'd be willing to travel a bit more if it meant the difference between a really good tat and a bad one.

Thanks for all the suggestions so far.

Yes, anywhere you have bone closer to the skin than muscle, it will hurt worse. Shoulder blades, ribs, and feet are good examples of where getting ink will hurt.

I have 3 tattoos: on my back (between the shoulder blades, but slightly overlapping them), on my left upper arm, and on my right upper arm. The only one that really hurt was my right upper arm, as it was on my tricep and near the tender spot of my arm pit.

I hear that MidAir and Ink in Des Moines is the best around.

If you are a little unsure about your tattoo, some suggestions:

1. The larger the better. No point in going back when you realize you should have gone large in the first place.
2. Make sure it is in a very visible location, like your forearm, neck or face. Why get one if no one can see it?
3. Don't pick it out ahead of time. The best decisions are made spur of the moment. Drink heavily before going, it will help open up your creative side.

Follow these guidelines and contented bliss will follow.

Unfortunately, I followed two of those suggestions for my first one Fortunately, the one suggestion I didn't follow was 2

I have one on my shoulder blade and one on my ribs. The shoulder blade felt like a massage from 30 swedish women with very tiny hands compared to the jack hammer stabbing me in the chest 60 times per second for the one on my ribs.

I have one on my back left shoulder and have been waiting for the next tat idea to arise, but I am such a perfectionist I am waiting on the perfect tattoo, my friend and I did make the pact that if Iowa State ever won a National Championship in football or men's bball that we would get tattoos of State's logo.

I have one on each foot. They aren't horrible. But, they aren't huge. One is the size of a 1/2 dollar and one is the size of an average cookie.
