1. Im going to get U and 2 on my respective feet ala Edge's rings from Achtung Baby

  2. well, my tattoo is two weeks old now! healing process is coming along nicely. the tattoo is still in its "shiny" stage with some light discolouration going on beneath, but I suppose it's good enough for a picture

    the morse code concept stuck with me since that one time we saw edge wear a beanie with some mysterious morse code on the side (some time prior to the nloth release, I believe). originally, I wanted the tattoo to say: u2, bono, edge, adam, larry, one love. but that would've have been quite a few lines, so I changed it to something shorter... and added bono's handwriting from the "one" lyrics instead. personally, I love the purple part the most! might do some touch ups on the blue part on the far right, though, as it's a little too light/blurry for my taste, but all in all, I'm very proud of it

    Verry nice one! Love the purple and blue.
  4. Pretty nice idea! Love watercolor style, just nothing I would get on my own skin, I'm all for full colors in a tattoo's case
    I agree, the blue on the right might actually disappear more once it's healed, so I'd get it pushed a bit too.

    It's beautiful! Happy not to see another Joshua Tree on another arm/back/leg

    (the morse code on Edge's beanie actually said exactly this - their names & U2, just in case someone is still wondering)
  5. thanks, guys! it certainly won't be my last one!

  7. The NLOTH U2 logo on the wrist is really cool.
