KONVCTN
i just got a new tattoo this evening at Black Cat Tattoo Studio, this time i got Kevin to work on it, Kevin has got enough skills to just impress you. the idea struck me on friday nite when i was talking to Carol about the idea of having conviction in every decision that you make. as i was thinking about if further, i recognize that its really one of the principles that i have based my life on. i decided to get it inked permanently on my knuckles...im basically into oldskool design tats, but i really didnt want oldskool fonts tattooed on my knuckles as i felt that for lettering as strong as the word 'conviction', you'd really need a font which was really bold in black shading. so i went looking for fonts and i found a russian text-styled font which i felt was really bold and strong. i decided with getting the word 'conviction' by dropping out all the vowels...cos i only have eight fingers (minus the thumbs), i only included the first 'o' so that the whole word became more obvious. check it out...

Out of curiosity, does it bother you that you have 4 letters on one and 3 on the other? :)
hey,
actually it doesnt, it was actually meant to end on my middle finger cos i wanted to leave my ring finger clean...
it was sposed to be CNVCTN, which is conviction without the vowels..
but in the end i felt it looked better with the 'o' inside...thats why it ends on my ring finger...

dude - scale of pain? 8? 7 1/2?
