hey soulshine- that metatron's cube and flower of life are simply amazing. i have wanted to get both of these for some time myself but have yet to find an artist that could pull it off right. ....you seem to have found that artist....  as for myself- i've got a few pieces....i'm not sure if they quantify outright as 'psychedelic', but i have enjoyed them immensely while in other dimensions of consciousness through the use of psychedelics so i'm going to roll with it. green tara, kincara, blue lotus. L&G!! antrocles attached the following image(s):  GREEN TARA.JPG (88kb) downloaded 1,123 time(s).

Thanks Ant, You've also got some very nice work, lots of detail and color in those. The ankle bone must have been the worst...ugh. A good friend of mine has been doing ink for 6 years or so, and really hooked me up when i showed him the design and told him some of the history behind them. Not to mention the fact that i introduced him to the spice a few months ago (  ). Its been really uplifting for him as an artist as well as spiritually i think. Been lovin looking at them when i fade back in from a journey. Peace The tragedy of life isn't that it's too short, it's that we take too long to begin it...

I'd really like to be able to draw well. I would really really like a piece of a place in hyperspace I've been to. Was thinking of blasting off with my artist and seeing what we can come up with. My name is love, for I am without fear

AND, i had to have them done FOUR TIMES for it to finally stay in!!! yes....no tattoo will even make me blink after that adventure... hey! i just got one last night. seed of life surrounded by the masculine and the feminine. stylized, colorized, galvanized and super-sized..... on the crown chakra. of course.

Yet another nice piece Antrocles. How long did that one take? The vibrating needle on the skull must have been sweet , not as bad as the hands though huh (nerve endings)? A friend of mine also has tatoos there on his hands which he has had to do a few times.... Ah the good pain  The tragedy of life isn't that it's too short, it's that we take too long to begin it...

i have another appointment at the shop with a different artist on jan 2nd. think we're gonna start my chest plate and it'll probably be psychedelic as he's into the trip, also. the guy doing my chest is the same guy who did my ego death tat, the first pic i posted with this thread. we're aiming to have back done by spring so that we can start entering it in tattoo festivals. there are some big ones within a couple states of us june/july, so we're hoping to be ready for them! going every two weeks (sometimes every week) should make that totally doable. this back piece is gonna be totally tripped out!!! embrace your nothingness...it's all you are...

Oh man, some of this stuff is so fucking rad.
No way I could afford a proper tattoo right now. I want something big and colorful. Someday...
For now I'll have to work out some ideas...

Freaking great arts everyone! Just... wow 01:13:08 ‹Ellis DEmpty› I met the people living in my head... I disturbed them while they were sitting down at the table.... They were as shocked as I was!

These are awesome guys. Really great. When I started reading the thread, I didn't expect to be blown away by so many ridiculous ones. Keep 'em coming "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind" - Albert Einstein
