Ashes in Tattoo Ink

Hi, I am more of a ghost on here and have been for a while but here and there I like to post and this is something I thought was cool. A guy I work with just had a tribute tattoo for his father done on Friday. What has made it unique is he had the artist mix some of his old man's ashes into the ink. She used the ashey-ink for the outline only. I took a look at the tattoo today and its healing pretty well. (except that he is using H2OCEAN which i do not prefer, but different strokes for different folks i suppose.) I thought I may have seen a previous post like this on here but I could not find it so maybe its deja vu.

do a search for ashes in the main forum search box, should find a lot of old posts I imagine.

I guess it wasn't deja vu. I ran the search and did in fact find an old post that pretty much covered the entire topic. And here I was believing I brought up something ground breaking.
