Umm, actually now that I'm thinking about it, is it as dirty as I'm imagining?

What's on either side of the "cellar door" I have no fucking clue.

The writing on either side looks like either Elvish in the Tolkien sense or some nordic style rune work.
SoCal, care to chime in?

edit: I see you are a Tolkien dork as well. Nice, I'm actually reading it to my 8 year old right now.

I'm willing to drive the 6+hrs for a good artist. With as many military bases as we have around here artists can charge a fucking arm and a leg and it sucks.

On your chest piece the writing on the right is the Feanorian characters right? the Same used around the gates of Moria? (yes I am a fucking dork and I did just check my book)

Any way, nice tat.

All of that is fine, but she chose a different path, and did it very well. Because of that, I thought they were stunning. ~ H
