in remembrance of her father.....this has been harder than we ever thought it would be.
it has to be truly hardcore american...she wanted all of his medals included in the design....9 total.....besides his 2 purple hearts....we found out his bronze star for bravery was OLC also...we didnt even know that....the military provided documents of that just recently....we still have not found the OLC yet...but paper work says it was awarded...and he had possesion of it....some of his stuff was stolen a few years ago...maybe thats why.
but anyway....its been a search for what she wants....she has looked at everything on the internet...looked at thousands of tattoos....she talked to the artist....she doesnt want any thing off the common list like you might see in the studio.
she and the artist agreed that an eagle with his feet extended downward with medals hanging from them are a killer possibility....but he{the artist} says only 1 medal per foot would look correct....he doesnt want to try more than that....plus it would be hard to get in the design the text she wants.
text in the way of.......in loving memory of...... served 1961 - 1990 blah blah blah.
these are stolen from the internet....not sure if we can get in trouble for that ....she likes this eagle design possibly...with modifications of course to image to allow text.
click
then we found this by mistake...its actually a wall mirror....it will allow a lot of text right in the middle....and portrays america ....she really likes this also.
click
what yaw think...she is giving her whole back right shoulder for this....and she is gonna do something....if yaw wanna throw an idea out here....go ahead ;D....kev.
