DangerousBeans Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Working in a tattoo shop it always raises my spirits when people get geeky tattoos. Fav's recently have been a pixellated mario, a vault boy and discworld Death. Anyway, who here has any tattoos of the geeky variety? I've got the Cryx faction symbol and Greebo (Discworld) and will post pics when I get home. Share share! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEiRD sKeTCH Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 Oh man... AoM's gonna love this thread. The only ink I currently have is a barcode on my left shoulder that reads as a personal reminder to myself about some stuff and things.

maple Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 I consider the first 5 years of my tattoo-ing to be geeky, cause I only got wall flash back then. So I have had to spend the last 10 years getting them covered up with stuff that I actually like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 In my circle of best friends I am the only one that does not have a tattoo. They all have at least one nerd Tattoos. I'm as nerdy as the next guy but not really the type to get a Tat, plus it would have to be something really meaningful since its gonna spend the next 30+ years living on my body. I have debated getting my sons name written in Arabic on my arm though. Either that or a Samurai holding a Pizza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maple Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 @Bugking, I didn't realize having your nickname tattoo'd was nerdy... cause I have had "Maple" tattoo'd on my arm since I was 17. Crap... I guess it is kind of nerdy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DangerousBeans Posted November 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 Bug King - well done sir! Fangrot - I have your album! Worked with Kenny for a while when he moved to Glasgow. Small world. 3Wolf - I hope your tats have the same affect as this (read the reviews) http://www.amazon.com/Three-Wolf-Moon-T-Shirt-Medium/dp/B000NZW3J8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=apparel&qid=1258199316&sr=8-1 Tattoos don't have to mean bugger all, look at Bug King for example. It's pure hedonism! I just realised that my facehugger and pumpkinhead are pretty damn geeky too. GEEKS RULE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brushmistress Posted November 14, 2009 Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 I may win the nerdom contest here - I have a tattoo of a Neopets Faerie Kau just above my left ...er, um, yeah - looks just like this, without the animated sparkles of course. Very girly, I know, but hey - I'm a girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DireTrollJake Posted November 14, 2009 Report Share Posted November 14, 2009 Here is my only tat: And then I got some scarification done: (Warning, early pix are graphic, video is EXTREMELY graphic.) http://s966.photobucket.com/albums/ae144/Pain_Giver/ I am more of a piercing guy , but I've had to limit them and I am down to 9.

DangerousBeans Posted November 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2009 Well, here yaz all go's. I've affectionately named the facehugger "Scamper" and he generally raises a lot of comments. My favourite one being "Why's your spider got a tail?". The Cryx logo, well, I always wanted the Mark of Slaanesh, but since GW went and screwed their games I'm glad I didn't. This doesn't just show my allegience to the Nightmare Empire but also to wargaming as a whole. Pumpkinhead and Greebo were done by a friend of mine during his apprenticeship, hence why they're not so good. Pumpkinhead is especially rubbish but I'm working on getting him tarted up.

Good thing you didn't. You'd be getting a cease and desist letter in the mail for infringing on their IP... then they would require you to remove the skin their IP image was tat'd on.
