    i printed out the versions george inverted, cut them out and stuck them to my back above the cross, then wiggled around in front of a mirror for a while. then i sent the frontrunner (#6) to sindri at the tattoo parlor for icelandifying; he felt strongly about making it a bit simpler so that it would age well. he's seen more tattoos than i have, so i concurred.

    Excellent collaboration - always trust your tattoist (or you probably shouldn't be doing it).

    Your new tattoo is the toast of two continents! (I’m saying a nice “Search & Destroy” at the shoulders should be next up but no rush.)
