The general thought is to slowly accumulate an ongoing mural of all the things I've done that I've found interesting, meaningful, or just plain awesome. The Honu, or sea turtle is a common sight in Hawaiian mythology and story representing long life and reminding me of the enjoyable time I spent there, the shark, along with being a shark, is for the time I have spent working with these immense prehistoric fish, and Lobster Kahn, is...well, Lobster Kahn and this ruthless and sadistic crustacean reminds me of my friends that are slowly spreading out across this country. I realize that somehow, all these animals are marine in nature, and could just as easily be construed as being a sign of my enjoyment of my job, which is also completely true. I'd also like to try to add in something for the summers I spent in the Amazon, but can't decide on a tapir or maybe a macaw.

gonna need to explain it a bit more if ya want feedback :) I've found that 1/2 the beauty of a tattoo comes from the story and significance so sell me on that WITH the design.
I agree, but I can see that it's sort of a Life Aquatic theme, which is certainly what you do.
And I like that the original Lobster Khan design made it in there.
KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!
The shark is beautiful. Where would you get it? It looks like it's for a long part, like an arm or a leg.
