tattoos

Raul, I wanna see your ink.  Back in school my whole art project was based around Giger and I'm a huge fan of his artwork.  Man he did some filthy stuff but done in such a way that you might not see it at first.

I've got a few of my own but no pics.  Dragon on one arm, dragon on the other, a freehand polynesian style sleeve from wrist to shoulder and round the back/top/front of my shoulder, across my collar bone to my neck, and two stars on my chest (before stars were the "in" thing to have!).

Lol at caddy_rik.  At least your honest mate!  Some have meanings, others don't.

I'll try and get some pics on soon. I don't have any of his erotomechanics tatted on me but i do have lillith and lanscape 7. I've always been a big fan and i keep meaning to go to his museum at some point.

That would rule!!

ok here you are

I'm glad you know what I'm talking about!  I borrowed one of his books from my art teacher (never did find it to buy) and it was all about him as well as his art.  Really interesting reading.

Didn't realise there was a museum but I can imagine that would be top notch.  Somehow that reminds me.  Last time I was in the ink shop there was an issue of Tattoo mag and the front cover lady had some giger inspired alien sleeve (iirc).  That was one hell of a good tat.

There is a good shop in Prague called alien tattoo, those guys really know their Giger. You can get his books pretty much anywhere.
Necronomicon 1 and 2, and also landscapes is worth a flick.

Interesting looking chairs!

It was a particular book from one of those cheap book stores and I've just never found it since.  Better stop talking about ink or I'll be tempted to get more!  Need the money for the dub!

here is a couple of mine guys.

round the nipple always hurts!!!!!

Heres a random shot of a part of my sleeve, only shot i have at the moment.

Yeah round the nipple was'nt my best tattoo experience.

Raul i love that sleeve how many sittings did it take? ive been thinking of getting one started in fantasy art.

Round the old nips is pretty nasty but the ribs and collar bone for me is worse, much worse.

Also whats more painful line work or shading??? Shading for me!!

The whole sleeve is 20+ hours so about 7 or 8 sittings.

ive had all the outline on dragon redone as the first guy messed it up i found that pretty painful going over old scaring still got to go back and get it finished.

Scarring is never nice to tatt, i have a large scar on my forearm covered up and that was really really horrible!
