There is no place like home and the Chicago Train Map Tattoo really shows this sentiment on an ultimate level. Posted by brr-itscole on F*ck Yeah Tattoos, this veiny ink art is pretty impressive.
Inked by Jerome at Tatu Tattoo in Chicago, Illinois, the Chicago Train Map Tattoo is an actual mini representation of the transit lines in this particular city. The beauty of getting them tatted on his arm not only lies in him showing his love for his hometown, but also in how it creates a link between him and his other fellow Chicagoans.
When strutting down a street in Chicago or, better yet, a different city all together, the Chicago Train Map Tattoo will be easily and immediately recognizable by other Chicago natives.
