Firebreathing tank of doom and destruction

In WWII, the British had a "Crocodile" tank that was outfitted with a flamethrower.





I hope this was at least partial inspiration for Vector having fire abilities.

How long is tattoo school? And is that the cost for the entire schooling to get your license?

Yup, entire schooling with books and fees. And it can range anywhere from 3 to 7 months depending on if you go full time or part time.

They train you on the theory as well as practical (you do something like fifty tattoos for free while training);some basic art things, sanitization, skin types/pigment/diseases, etc.

They also prep you for the state license exam, but I can't remember if you pay for that separately or not. I think separately.

Probably separately, but that is pretty awesome. From what I've heard, the licensing exam for that is mainly about blood borne pathogens, that sort of things. Shiz you'll get down easy, I'm sure.

Fifty tattoos is nice, too, to have done for a portfolio. Sounds like an awesome deal. I can't wait to hear your progress. :D

It'll be pretty bomb.

By the way, did I ever show you IGN's April Fool's Day video?

Nope. I shall bookmark it to watch later.
