GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ Tattoos?

Posted by: Adrian Figallo Apr 13 2010, 09:14 PM

Hey guys!, i wanted to post this last week but my internet connection died on me biggrin.gif, i just have a new tattoo! and even it is not finished (one more session of pain is missing for the background) i wanna share it with you!

And also i'm wondering how many of you rockers got some body art?, please post some pics cause (as you can tell) i'm very into tattoos (and all kinds of arts really)

Here's my new one, it's a lotus flower:
Once the background is done, my whole right sleeve will be done !

Very nice Adrian, awesome tattoos smile.gif

Posted by: Dennizzz119 Apr 13 2010, 09:42 PM

Thats a piece of art Adrian!

Posted by: relaxenjoy Apr 13 2010, 10:30 PM

That's awesome Adiran.

I was tempted to ask to see closer shots of your work when I saw them in your lessons.

Do you care to share the meanings behind your ink?

I don't have any tattoos at the moment. Although I'd like one someday, I don't know what it will be yet!

Does it wash off easily....... laugh.gif tongue.gif

thanks man!, well behind my ink there is not much meanings, i think the meaning start to grow (or reveal to you) after some time, once the tattoo is getting into something organic with your body, but right now i'm focusing on cover the natural elements on my arms, right arm water and fire, and left arm earth and wind, obviously it is my own interpretation of em, i'm saving the nack for ancient designs inca/maya? and the chest for "mind" designs. smile.gif

Sorry all - But I have to show you a tatoo for REAL men!!
Got it 3 days ago from a 3,5 year old Tatoo expert who happens to live in my flat. laugh.gif
I dare you to top this! laugh.gif

And YES! - it IS a monkey dancing on a rhino - how cool is that, huh?!

 

Posted by: Bogdan Radovic Apr 13 2010, 11:55 PM

Wow great tattoos Adrian! I like your idea of elements theme you have going on! smile.gif

I would love to get some done in future, I'm just waiting for some really important "meanings" for them smile.gif

thanks man! good luck with that man!, but let me tell u, once u get one it is impossible to stop, so get prepared to be a meaningful person biggrin.gif

Cool, I've been thinking of making a tattoo thread for awhile but never got to it. Your tattoos are great, from what I've seen on your videos!

Here's my first, I did it roughly 2 months ago and I love it! It's Eddie of Iron Maiden for those who don't know it. I've drawn it myself, but the artist freehand tattooed the skin and flesh around the ripped skin. I'm on my way on becoming an apprentice for a tattoo artist in my town at the moment actually smile.gif

I really envy you guys! I'd love to get a tattoo, but my girlfriend wouldn't really like it, plus I work in the public sector and a tattoo is a no-go there...maybe some day, I won't give up my dream so easily. I' d love to have a dragon or a succubus with a guitar on my right shoulder.

Posted by: Santiago Diaz Garces Apr 14 2010, 08:05 AM

Yes, I know, but I think it's just a matter of trying it

Posted by: mhskeide Apr 14 2010, 08:31 AM

I really want to have a tattoo or three, but I don`t want anything random on my body, so I guess I just have to wait until I know what I want to write/draw tongue.gif

Thanks Adrian! Check out the artist if you like, his name is Noby, his site http://tattoozone.se/

Yeah, absolutely, that would be very cool to do! smile.gif

Posted by: antonskv Apr 14 2010, 07:16 PM

hehe, Tattooo sharing! Word...

here are my two cents, i took this when i got it:


(I know my forearm looks kinda bloated, but its just the angle. Im holding camera in my arm while snapping the pic. )



Not much, but its done nicely, and i like it.

I'm planning to get some tribal on my right shoulder. When i do, i'll post photos.


Rawk.

Awesome! smile.gif

Posted by: Sensible Jones Apr 15 2010, 02:01 PM

This was my first one from my own design. It was done by 'Uncle' Vic Windsor of Hells Angels Windsor MC. He did it for my 30th Birthday present.
This pic is taken from the HAMC Windsor Yearbook and was in a 3-page article about Vic's Tattoo Parlour called 'Fantasy Fineline'. It's still operating in my nearest town!
[attachment=20682:My_1st_Tattoo.JPG]

I don't have any pics of any of my others, but will get some done when i get my next ink done. On my left arm is a self-designed Aztec Sun Face which will be surrounded by some Polynesian style. Whilst my right arm will retain the Celtic theme in honour to my Half Viking/Half Celt ancestry!


Posted by: Canis Apr 17 2010, 02:20 AM

That's some awesome looking tattoos.. Especially Berglmir's!! tongue.gif

Talking about ancestry, I'm gonna get a tattoo of my name written in nordic runes! Can't wait ^^

Finally someone with great taste! laugh.gif
Carefull with the runes though - altough I enjoy nordic mythology a lot (see "Berglmir") - here in Austria you might easily get confused with some Neo-Nazi Crap blink.gif
Hope it´s better in Norway and not so biased!

Looking forward to the pics! smile.gif

Cool tattoos, guys!

I was thinking about having one myself but I always reconsidered when I thought about having to wear it for the rest of my life... tongue.gif

Posted by: Sircraigery Apr 24 2010, 06:42 PM

I got one, it's a gargoyle with a nasty looking face.

I got yellow highlights in it because he is parched on a building, and I want to be able to add the nights sky around him. Then it will appear he's looking down on to a busy street.

I got it about 6 years ago, and haven't gotten another. I will one day when I'm out of school and have a little more spending cash.



Sorry for the bad pic quality, it was from my cellphone when I first got it. The good 'ole 1.3 MP camera.

Wow!! Nice man!! It's really well done!!

Posted by: Azzaboi Apr 25 2010, 03:01 AM

Woah awesome tatts, Eddie of Iron Maiden ripping thru the skins is a favourite of mine! That's some freaky stuff!
I wouldn't mind the dragon one as well, that's pretty kewl.

As a kid I always wanted that 'Stevo' tattoo, lol:


This one is nice too:


Not allowed to get a tattoo yet, parents too over protective gees, probably was a good thing, but still... sad.gif

Do temporary tattoos counts? lol


And your never too old for a tattoo, lmao:

Very Cool and I think for a guitar player the natural elements theme already has a strong and very fitting meaning since they are wielding the axe.

All others are awesome too.

None here yet. I alway wanted to do something with the amperex bugle boy image (vacuum tube with horn) with a mixed design around it to make it more interesting.


Posted by: Gitarrero Jul 22 2011, 08:16 AM

Ah,this thread is up and running again...so let me throw my tattoo in:
I got my guitar tattooed on my right arm (you should all do that wink.gif ), something I have wanted for years but the ex was always reluctant to let me have it. After she broke up with me, one of the first calls I made was the tattoo studio xD. I'm glad I did it, I think it looks just awesome and it's always funny to see other people's reaction to it, since I always get to hear "I never thought you were tattooed and a metalhead..." laugh.gif
