Casey Shockley [3] shows off his rendition of the Red Line at the Andrew-JFK/UMass tunnel, done a year ago at Karma Tattoo in Somerville. He explains he used to live in the Polish Triangle in Dorchester. See it larger [2].
He joins Dot rat Adam Myerson, who has the Ashmont line on his leg [4] (more [5]) and Josh DeCosta, who has the Orange Line at Sullivan Square [6] on his arm.
Kaitlin Maud, meanwhile, has the entire MBTA map on her arm [7] - both subway and commuter rail (in the photo, north is at the bottom, Green Line on the right):

Meghann [8] also has a system map - but just for subways:

Georgy doesn't want something so permanent, so is thinking of a temporary Night Owl tattoo [13]
