I actually have one on my left leg....I got it my sophomore year. It is about 4/5 inches tall and is the crest of the coat of arms for Phi Delta Theta, with the fraternity name written in an arch over the arm and javelin....the writing actually begins at the middle of my shin and goes all the way back to the middle of my calf. Originally I wanted it very small, but the guy drew it on...and I figured...what the heck....so I went with it.
The tattoo has a lot of symbolism for me (obviosly) and I got it in honor of my brothers who really stuck by me and got me through a difficult time in college.
One of my other brothers, whom I was close with, got two other portions of the coat of arms on his arm. He has the helmet of armor with a sword going behind it...that can be found on our coat of arms.
