Video Game Related Tattoos

[AlexKidd86]

So far my only game related tattoo is Sonic the Hedgehog on the front of my leg.

Was thinking about getting Knuckles next to Sonic and a small, pixelated Galaga ship to fill up a spot on my arm.

Also, I remember about 10 years ago I wanted to get the whole TurboGrafx logo. As much as I love that system, that would've looked horrible and I'm glad it didn't happen.

I went through a period where I wanted to get an 8 bit pixelated mario tattoo. Kinda glad I didn't go through with it. My last tattoo I got was my daughters foot prints.

This 100%.

Like any pop culture...you want to own it but it doesn't work that way. Our generation was the 8-bit era...in my mind, 8-bit mario belongs to me and those of us who was there to go through the entire journey...but that's not how it works. Every hipster goofball born >1995 has/wants some tattoo of some pixel art made a decade before they were born. Getting one means joining those ranks in the eyes of the mass public and I refuse to do such a thing. It's not different than those morons and their NES controller t-shirt with "classically trained" written underneath it...you know, they guy who was born in 1998...

That's the comic that inspired me to eventually get an SNK tattoo! ^_^

Here's a picture of my latest one, Double Dragon inspired. Going to get it colored in, in about a month or so -

Mega man's crotch is shining.

There. Now you can't unsee it.

Vaginal.

 

[ResO]

Cool tat, everybody loves Megaman.

 

[GutsDozer]

Thank you! Still not regretting it even a little.

Here's mine. I got it yesterday.

Can I have permission to use your face as my avatar? It's a really good face.

 

[BlackaneseNiNjA]

I was originally going to get SNK done but end up with Neo Geo instead.

 

[Karou]

Oh yeah???




Sadly it is not actually mine just one of those things of look at all the 'bad'tattoos this person does from bored panda or some junk.

Would have just pmd but had to screen grab as they don't share nice and pm only allow url imagery

I want that one on my ribs. About 10x4 inches.
No bullshit.

I’m not into tattoos myself but if it makes you happy to have mega man art on you then right on. Good thing it came out well, I know a ton of people who have tattoos that their artist most of had a bad day and fumbled it. ( or they where being cheap and got a crappy tattoo artist?)

I got this one a year or two ago, I think it turned out well. This was right after it was done, the whites and blues looked a lot better after it healed.

That's pretty badass man, but I'm sure the filling for that was hell. Did you ever get it touched up?

 

[LoneSage]

I want to know how much that cost

One of the coolest cover art pieces ever! How many hours did that take?

 

[Tacitus]

Yeah... those of you with larger pieces / sleeves
How long did it take, what do you wish you knew going in?

 

[Azathoth]

Thanks. I never got anything else done to it. After it healed the lightning and Shielder's eye lost that red tint, plus it wraps to touch some stuff I have on the other side so I didn't have any room left to add to it. I can't seem to hold the camera myself and take a decent pic where it doesn't look distorted.

I don't remember the exact price, but the usual quote is $100 per hour.

Thank you. Two sessions, not counting smoke breaks and time spent bullshitting it was probably around 6+ hours.

Here’s a picture when this was super fresh 4 years ago. Was my first tattoo, took 4 hours.

I wanted this as a tattoo since I was 13 back in the late 90s, and I originally wanted it smaller. Artist told me the pixels would just deform after a few years, so we went with it bigger. Still looks good.

I’m probably not getting any other video game tattoos. Megaman is pretty important to me, and has been my favorite game character for nearly 30 years and I waited nearly 20 years before actually getting it done.

If i get a video game tat, you can bet it will be Koyori’s giant titties.

Closest to titties you'll ever get....

 

[andsuchisdeath]

I am still upset that the mods modded/edited my tattoo poll/thread.

I was planning on getting a video game related tattoo and I wanted the forum's feedback.

They ruined that!
