So l'd been thinking about getting a tattoo for a while, but could never find a design that suited me, and had an idea in mind but needed someone to make it work on the page.

And then a fellow Imgurian @thecommoncolor posted about how they wanted to design more tattoos ( https://imgur.com/gallery/bPrMYhO), and it seemed like it was time to see what an artist Could do. And boy did they deliver.

So I'm paying them with exposure! 

No, I paid them money. The exposure is just extra. If you need an artist, they are amazing, and work with you to really make it look as you imagined.

Here's the design they sent. I think my tattooist  did an amazing job getting it on my skin. Another shout out to @sinfulink on Instagram. If you live or are visiting Long Beach, California and want to get something done, she's amazing and friendly and I could not be happier with her work. Will be back to her again for my next one. I am officially hooked.

One last shout out to @ngugi for his Tolkien posts. I took a class on Tolkien in college, and thought I knew a lot, but he keeps surprising me with more I didn't know, and they're so fun and well done. Thanks for the knowledge dude.

That's it. Thanks for reading!

I like the design, but the text placement is triggering ocd. Why not run it along the circle with proper kerning?

The brush effect is really convincing from the photo. Big ups to the artist.

Yeah because they're spies or agents of the dark lord. That's what the quote references.
