If that's part of your commitment, then fuck yeah.
I think "wait til black belt" is saying to you, you may not follow through
with this thing. A tattoo is about passion and commitment, not mastery.
And shit, if you don't follow through with 10th planet, then you know yourself
a bit better and won't do that next time, and you can always make it a sweet
space scene.
You've been brown all along brother.Quote:

*get into some shit
Be creative.
Choose the best tattooist not just in your area but the best you can find online and travel to them if needs be.
Go for something cool that looks good and will stand the test of time. Why not go 10th Planet related but not 10th Planet specific?
Avoid branding of any kind, I am sure if down the line Eddie wants to update his logo and designs he does not want to have to break the hearts of dozens of his students who have an exact copy of the existing logo on their skin for life.
My idea for a cool looking sleeve would be something along the lines of a planet, a zombie, a spider, empire state building (new york), a butterfly and maybe some chainlink fence holding it all together.
This is mine im not done with it yet. I just dont have time to not b training to get anymore work done to it right now lol. Im gonna do a sleeve from the knee down in time.

There is always the chance in life if you get a piece of art to commemorate something that the something wont be there forever. I have tons of tats that meant more when I got them than they do now. Ive trained in a multitude of arts and thought it best to get something generic like Bushido on me (which I have). But on the same note I kinda look at the art work on me as a time line of my life, I dont regret getting them because they inspire memories for me. Its my personal thing though and everyone is different. The only thing I regret about any of my art work is that I never went bigger sooner hehe. Bigger is cleaner and better looking.I ll post some of my good martial arts inspired tats :). Wait til black belt, and you will probably extend the wait again. I dont see it as a lack of commitment to the system, I see it as a lack of commitment to the tattoo. You just dont know if yo want one really .... or your reasons for having them are different than mine. I love the art work and the memories.Quote:

It was the education and philosophy I received from the discovery of the system and how it opened my mind in life. Jiu Jitsu has been a major part of the last 3 years of my life and it has given me something I love, OG Kush and chokes.
Damn, well said!Quote:

Yeah. Im doin it. goin to wait til income tax time though =p getting a more simple tattoo in the meantime. By the way, I'll NEVER leave 10th Planet, its where my heart is.
Nothing is smarter than tattooing your current girlfriend's first and last name onto a visible part of your body! It means the relationship will last forever!
No really though lol, please don't get your girlfriend's name EVER tattoo'd on. I thought I'd put this disclaimer on here since this IS a forum of people who can dismantle a body in about 10 seconds. A 10th Planet tattoo? Brandon W's is pretty nice.
You want to express your loyalty but you don't train at a moon and your not even willing to drop 5 bucks a month to get instructional videos straight from HQ. If I thought I was dedicated enough to get a 10th planet tattoo I would pack up and move to Hollywood and check shit out first. At least take a week vacation out there. You just found this website 3 days ago and your down for life already!Quote:

It was a long 3 days! When you know, you just know! I think he should do his whole back 10th Planet: since he's down for LIFE!Quote:
