One of the highlights of STLV for me this year. Got a NX-01 assignment patch tattoo at Count’s Tattoo (at the Rio) in honor of my late grandfather who passed in 2025.

EDIT: Included the year.

    There are probably those who would say it’s cringe, but it means something to you, and that’s all that matters. Nice tattoo.

      Everyone at the con loved it. Not a single negative comment. There was a separate space set up in the convention hall for flash art that worked for Creation (or they are a regular vendor) but I didn’t know about them. Lots got tats there. I wanted it specifically at Count’s plus this was a custom.

          There are sizeable number of people who don’t like all kinds of things but I don’t make it a habit of pointing it out when I see someone with those things permanently etched onto their skin.
