Hey y’all, I found Caleb here in the Rio Rita, one of my favorite watering holes in Austin. He was really nice and sent in his story and picutre:
My homeboy David Wofford did it for me. I just had to buy him a couple Sparks first. Why did I pick SOUTHERN? Charlie Daniels said it best man…”‘Cos I ain’t askin’ nobody for nothin’, if I can’t get it on my own. And if you don’t like the way I’m livin’, you can just leave this long-haired country boy alone.”
I spent last weekend at the Lonestar Rod & Kustom Round Up soaking up the sun talking to people, and admiring all the amazing cars and trucks. There was music, vendors, pinstripers, artists and more types of pomade than you can shake a stick at. But most of all for me, there were tons of beautiful knuckle tattoos. Check them out after the jump:
Cody P. shows us true Texas loyalty. His knuckles above, his story below:
Yeah just a born and raised texan. I have some other texas inspired tattoos. I got it done at gill monties shop in beaumont from greg votaw
Ryan H. sends us these double deckers and here is his story:
Here is a picture of my knuckle tattoos. I had my hands in a weird position so the picture looks a little weird, but it’s the best picture I have of them. I got High Five on my knuckles because it’s a really Positive statement. My tattoo artist didn’t think I really wanted it on my knuckles until I came in and asked him to do it in complete sincerity. I have High Five on my upper knuckles, and just to somewhat contradict the phrase…
I originally got STR8 HATE because one of my favorite bands (xBRING IT DOWNx) has a song called Straight Hate with a pretty strong message in it. Although it may be a really negative one, it still has a lot of meaning lol.
Andy B. sends us these tattoos.
My knuckles say “DEUS VULT”- which means “God Wills It” in Latin. I am not a bible-thumper (although I am from the Bible belt), it’s really just a battle cry.
This classic set comes all the way from New Zealand:
Hey my name is Karla and I am a tattooist from New Zealand. These are my husband Alex’s knuckles. He was basically trying to find something funny and completely ridiculous to tattoo on them, there were a few choices such as sandwich, bungface, mukpuddy (which is the name of his animation studio) but we decided on “knuckles” enjoy!
Artist: Karla Hansen
Studio: Streetwise, Newmarket, New Zealand
