I have several as well. I am in the tribal design-mode; my body seems to absorb the color red, so I am sticking with black ink these days. Years ago I had the reaper from the cover of Blues For Allah tatooed on my forearm. Within 45 days all the red was gone. I had it redone, but the red went away again...

Nice Olie.  
Ben, I didn't know that could occur. So far so good with the ones I've got (3 1/2 years).    
I'm planning the next one now.

Agnus Dei (Lamb of God) Bill. I wrote out the score and the artist did the work.  
 
This tattoo was the inspiration for the inlays on the Alpha Omega bass.

Art,
 
Some people have that issue and some don't. That particular tat is almost 30 years old. Some of the colors have remained, but some, the red in particular, have disappeared.

My Tattoo represents my 2 passions: Music and Medicine. The bass is my Alembic SC. The neck of the bass stands in for the Rod of Asclepius. The banner contains a line from the Hippocratic Oath: May I Enjoy My Life and Practice My Art which (I think) applies to both medicine and music.

Very nice indeed Mike.  
 
Both of mine represent something I am very passionate about.  
This is on my left arm.
