ALL TATTOO POST
sethimothy 's been talking about getting a tattoo- so I've been wasting what precious little free time I have browsing a website gallery of tattoos. More specifically, just the "religious and mythological" section, to look for egyptian-style tats for Tim to compare what he likes and doesn't. End result: A crazy mix of wtf and awesome.
First, some awesome:
This is the first one that I liked. It's not Set, but I like the style and thought it might suit Tim.
This is probably my most favourite tattoo I have ever seen in the history of me looking at tattoos and either liking them or disliking them. So much awesome, St George vs the dragon.
This is the only sleeve design I've ever much liked. It's a neat idea, the execution's good, and it just looks nifty. That's not actually the finished version- he filled in inbetween the constellations with black. I liked it better without the filler, though.
This is the only tattoo I've found so far that is actually a tattoo of Set. Here is a closeup of the Set.
And I just like the colour in this one.
Now, some wtf:
"Yeah, it was totally necessary for me to pose nude to show off my tat. I'm so bad ass and cool- hey, is it kinda nippy in here, or is it just my CHILLED NIPPLE?"
I'm sure that this one has some deep meaning and is terribly important to the person who got it on their body for ever and ever... but I can't stop thinking how badass you'd have to be to get a VENN DIAGRAM drawn on you.
This one is just the most confusing combination of tattoos I have ever seen. "Yeah, I want a tattoo of the Virgin Mary- but she's a cat- and don't mess with my Angel SpongeBob. Yes, I'm completely sober."
BONER UNICORN?
This one isn't as confusing, but I still really want to hear the story behind it. Dalmation wtf? Similarly, lawn gnome?
I've always toyed around with the idea of getting a tattoo myself, but I still haven't figured out anything that I'd want to keep with me forever, or even something I wouldn't end up hating when I hit forty. St George and his dragon aside- but I'm too poor to afford such badassery. And I couldn't wear the tube tops to show it off, either.
