Den Rookie Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Hello I don't have any tattoos, i'm 24 and thinking about getting some. To start, i'm thinking about getting them places you can only see if i don't have a t-shirt on (shoulder, chest back, etc.) I like the art styles of a lot of my favorite bands albums. So i'm thinking about getting something like it. It's not bands i always listen to that often, i listen to a lot of different music. So it's not because the bands themselves have that much of an impact on me, i just really like the style. Some of the album covers i'm thinking about is: Mastodon, only the beasts head, no text and only greyscale Mötorhead no text either Them Crooked Vultures, greyscale And a picture of someone who have a "Them Crooked Vultures" tattoo, which i think is really cool. I don't want tattoos because they each should have some kind of meaning to me, i want them because i think they look cool. And i know it depends on the eyes of the beholder, but i still like to hear what you think? Also if you have some tattoo idea that maybe fits my art style i would love to see them. I'm not a huge fan of coloured tattoos, but i saw this one recently and thought it was pretty cool. I think it looks cool when a person have a bunch of different tattoos and they look a bit worn out. Ok, i stop my blabbering now 😛 Thoughts? 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SStu Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I'm not specifically in tune with artists with that design work - especially in specialty areas of Europe, but I'd be surprised if with some research something close by doesn't pop up.

Synesthesia Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I'm big into music also, but unfortunately a lot of bands I like, I just don't really want their logos or album covers on me for aesthetic reasons. I have the Minor Threat black sheep logo, and some day I want to get the black cat AFI used for some merch (https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61CZ77FtGZL._SY450_.jpg). I also have a piece inspired by some album artwork. I went to an artist who does, imo, great skulls and armor, and I showed him the picture and told him to come up with something inspired by the cover. Attached is a picture of the album and what he came up with for me, the picture is pretty old and taken I think before he finished the background 100% and did some final touchups (artist is Sam Warren in Lancaster, PA). I say go for it! SStu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
