But just dropped enough on Hayden and Martin, so the hype is in full swing! Anyway, I had a quick question. I'm very familiar with the proper way to store flat autographed items. I've got my acid free sleeves, my archive quality storage stuff etc. But does anyone have any advice for storing 3D items (action figures, footballs, props). I always want to get something more interesting than a poster signed, but am always worried about the auto's long term viability. Thanks in advance for any tips . I would have thought the whole 'keep them away from the sun' advice would still be very important. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenaciouspirit Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Thanks both :) I feel more confident about 3-D items now :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris1970 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 A general question. Have any of you had a body part signed by a guest and later had it tattooed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met someone at lfcc last year who was getting Superman actors' signatures tattooed on himself. Looked cool :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EllaBlair Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I would be tempted to do it. I remember seeing a guy on the Graham Norton show a few years back that had all the doctors names tattooed on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurdamoni Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Personally I wouldn't let a guest sign my arm for instance and have it tattooed on there. Not really my cup of tea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris1970 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) I have no tattoos. No other decoration either, not even a wrist watch. I was asked at work if I ever would get a tattoo and I said no and if I ever got one it have to be something extra super very funky special. As I havent come across anything of that yet I am inkless.

Wrong Name Posted July 3, 2019 Author Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) I just know what I'm like and if I got a tattoo, I'd probably change my mind about it a year or so later. If there's something I like, I'll just get a t shirt of it. Much safer that way! Edited July 3, 2019 by Wrong Name 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I deliberated for about 20 years on what tattoo I wanted precisely because of what you say, wanting to make sure it's something I definitely wanted forever. And when I knew what I wanted I researched into a lot of artists to get it in exactly the style I wanted. Got my first tattoo 3 years ago and so far still in love with it :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broo Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 So, with lfcc being just over 3 weeks away, that means schedule in roughly 2 weeks or so which means the fun part: Planning!! Can't wait to get stuck in! (Note: not asking when it's being released ) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you just ate bread, it would be rubbish, so you need to put stuff in the bread like ham or cheese or ham and cheese. It's a metaphor for life.

Oh that would be all kinds of awesome to get it early like that, but given that there sounds to be a good amount of announcements still to be made I'm thinking it'll be later :) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
