Very cool tattoo.  Does it hurt more getting it so close to the bone?

I have my sons name done in the theme of the Lego logo and am planning a larger upper leg lego tattoo (based around the 80s pigtail minifig).

actually the pain on this one was nothing compared to some parts I have had done. Gets annoying with the buzzing of the tattoo machine in the ear.



my piercing booth is done with a lot of lego inspired art work. I have the anatomy of a lego man wall decal some pieces friends have a done for me and a spray paint stencil I did. along with my new minifig display cases I just got. Sadly kids always think my piercing booth is a play area.

Cool tattoo...  

It made me explore google for what else was out there... and there are some truly amazing lego designs done by various people. I think graphically the lego minfig lends itself very well to being done as a tattoo, it adds a different dimension to a normal design.



... and conversely some really cool tattooed lego designs too...

I have seen that one and love it I already have a stormtrooper helmet with crossbones on my stomach so another would be overkill. I do want to get a full minifig thou

I'm diggin' your tat; nice and clean and nice placement. Lovely new school/cartoony style.   
I would like to get something like that. A classic pirates minifig skull, or my favorite part.
But don't know how my work will react; got 13mm stretched ears, but they're alright with that.

Would have been great going to a hardcore or metal show and bumping into a guy with LEGO tat! No offence if you prefer other music genres but i figure you'd be one of the guys who like that sort of music. i mean you totally fit the profile ..beard,plugs,tats, hehe.   Just a while ago i was thinking of getting some tats, like a hardcore show with someone jumping of the stage or just a bunch of people singing along, done with minifigs ofcourse haha. But then again, i rather spend money on actual LEGO sets  

Anyways, ink looks great mate.

I am that type of guy. I played a a couple hardcore bands since high school and am curently in a punk band called A New Hope. I have gauged ears and I am sleeved in tattoos (sleeved means having tattoos that cover my arms like sleeves from wrist to shoulder) and have a lot of my body covered. my job really doesn't care since I work in a tattoo shop and go to college.

I work in a tattoo shop and own the shop. It cost me nothing lol. Lego has been apart of my life since childhood and into my adult years. So a small part of my skin and some pain is a small price to pay for a life time of fun.

I am actually in the process of getting a larger Lego inspired tattoo piece.

thanx for the compliment! always feel good to know its appreciated by other AFOLs.

[lorax]

That patriots tattoo is also awesome, that is the style I want for my next tattoo (but I want top of my leg, (I am a public servant, I need to look a certain way in public, so I can't have visible tattoos).

I think people are either tattoo people or not.

I would have posted this one but... I was in a pretty bad motorcycle crash and its on my arm. The road rash did some damage to the tattoo and my arm

its always a personal choice and I respect yours as much as you admire mine so thanks for the compliment!

[agentofchaos73]

I've got two tattoos at the moment, but neither are LEGO related. I'm planning to eventually get a LEGO Joker tattoo, but I'll have to figure out exactly how I want it to look and where I want it before I do it.

Love the Bender.  I've wanted to get a zoidberg tattoo for a long time, but pretty sure my girlfriend would kill me.  I have a huge Red Sox logo on my chest from when I was 18 and said "Hey I'm 18 I love the Sox and I want a tattoo! Also I'm 18 so I'll never regret it" I also have a heart with my ex wife's initials in it that I just got filled in...so yeah nothing new from me without running it by her...

[H_ero]

Hi great tattoos going on here

Here's my own that I had done a month ago following my passion for motor sports
