VEGA STAR

Filed under: 4x4, Double Decker, Knuckle Tattoos, Man Hands, Story — Nathan Black @ 10:52 pm



Today’s knuckle come at the hands of Josh, a piercer at True Blue Tattoos in Austin, TX.
He explained that he is a dedicated science geek and that the Vega Star is the closest solar system to ours. And yes those are fruits, vegtables and meats on the next knuckles down.

Josh is also a killer shot in the laser tag arenas. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

These knucks belong to Rat Bastard…Dread Pirate…a man of mystery.

PATIENCE

This comes from my pal Elan who was just up in Seattle appartment hunting. He popped into a cafe in Belltown because they had free wifi and noticed that one of the clerks behind the counter had some fingertats. So he told her about this project, got a photo, and asked her what the story was. This is Jessica, a barista at the Cherry St. cafe in Seattle (slightly paraphrased):

“So I was getting sober, and … drinking was all about instant gratification and getting what you want right now. So, patience seemed like a good thing to keep in mind. And it’s been working good for me so far!”

Thanks Elan and Jessica!

Mr. Lifto is a founding member of the Jim Rose Circus, a travelling performer and a bartender at Casino El Camino here in Austin, Texas. His knuckle tattoos were a 5th anniversary gift from his then wife April. Now a days he has been over heard telling people that they refer to a prescription drug he is taking called Luvapril.

We have our first email’d in set of knuckles! Here is what the owner has to say:

I got my knucks done by Rain at Deep Roots in Seattle. My name is ZOMBIEGIRL and I skate with the Rat City Rollergirls…team Throttle Rockets. Yes, I have a zombie fetish…hence the dead sexy.

Thanks a ton for send them in ZombieGirl. Oh, wait you are also our first roller girl knuckles! Sweet!

And to be honest, we share your zombie fetish…

DUMB LUCK

Jimmy here didn’t have much to say about his knuckles except that they were a statement about his thoughts on karma as it applied to him.
