hey just wnted to put this thread where it belonged, since i got shunned from the art works topic place. Just wanted this to be a thread where people could share their tattoo's (preferably from video games) for the world to see. I posted this in the other other, now locked thread, but i will show it again. This is my zelda tattoo... comments? views on gaming tattoos? Anyone have any other tat's to show?

    You are going to regret that so hard.

    Also you should probably think of a lie ahead of time when girls ask what your tattoo is of.

    That's the exact tattoo I've been planning to get for a few years. Do you mind if I use that design?

    That's really not much better.

    Actually, I'm pretty sure it's much worse.

    That tattoo looks really nice. But man, that is going to be there for the rest of your life.
    Good for you though, I don't think I could ever gone through with it.

    I have a triforce on my right forarm. Just the three triangles in black that I've had for a few years now.

    I tell most people it's from a video game, but when I'm not in the mood, I'll just tell them it's symbolic of the balance between courage, wisdom and power.

    I suppose so.

    Although really would many people react negatively to a small, monochrome, abstract tattoo like an all-black triforce?

    Wear a glove? Couldn't be any more of a fashion crime than having a triforce tattooed on your hand.

    A TINY bit of flesh?! I'm talking about the circular ones that expand your earlobe so you could stick a pencil, or a finger through them.

    Do your ears hang low?
    Can you toss 'em to and fro'?
    Can you tie 'em in a knot?
    Can you tie 'em in a bow?
    Can you throw them o'er your shoulder,
    Like a continental soldier?
    Do your ears... hang... low?

    With regards to covering up tattoos, a friend of mine has an amazingly intricate tattoo over his upper arm, right down to a couple inches past his elbow. Why does it stop there? Because that's about how far one would roll up their sleeves in a business environment.

    You think of a tattoo that you want, and in 10 years, if you still think it's a good idea, you get it.

    I figured so. The figure I heard varies, but is usually less. Between 2 and 5 years as I usually hear it.

    Not that I stuck to any variation of that.

    The greatest gaming tattoo, or indeed any tattoo at all is :

    I know you feel like you've been drinking a few kegs of
    Styx wash, but you need to CENTER yourself. Among your
    possessions is a JOURNAL that'll shed some light on the dark of
    the matter. PHAROD can fill you in on the rest of the chant, if
    he’s not in the dead-book already.
    Don’t lose the journal or we'll be up the Styx again. And
    whatever you do, DO NOT tell anyone WHO you are or WHAT
    happens to you, or they'll put you on a quick pilgrimage to the
    crematorium. Do what I tell you: READ the journal, then FIND
    Pharod.
    Don’t trust the skull.

    The only tattoo's I have still wanted for about 5 years are the jedi knight symbol from Jedi Outcast on my left upper arm in black or the Spider-Man chest symbol on my chest with 1:1 ratio. It's just while I'm not a fatty but my chest isn't anything to give a hoot about at present time.
