Zelda tattoo design!
Hello wonderful people.
For a long time I have been contemplating a tattoo, and knowing generally what I would like to incorporate.. but never coming up with a solid design and I figured maybe I'll see if anyone would like to design my tattoo for me! In return I would like to offer credits (however much I can - a LARGE portion of anything that I win in the 6 tournaments I'm enrolled in. I'm hoping several hundred thousand), maybe playing a song for you on piano... the honor of having your artwork permanently on my body.. and would be willing to discuss anything else if you'd like something from me! The tattoo will be on my right arm (side of bicep, or right where would be covered by a short-sleeved shirt) my preference is color, and I don't have a favorite or choice of colors. Your artistic eyes are better than mine I promise Firstly, I would like the artwork and Zelda related pieces to come from Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and Windwaker (less than the N64 games, but maybe a little bit from WW would be okay. We'll see!) Items that must be incorporated 1. The Hylian crest: This could be more decorative, be creative with it, I'm allowing tons of artistic freedom and will give feedback! There are lots of them online so anything could be cool I suppose. 2. Something music related (doesn't have to be Zelda related music - could just be a treble/G or bass/F clef honestly..) I know this is very vague, but that's because I'm open to see many ideas. I am a classically trained pianist and fell in love with Zelda for a lot of its music. So any ideas that could potentially be incorporated would be awesome! Ideas that I've liked/think are cool - This one is a Hylian Crest (with TLOZ written across it obviously, which is pretty cool) and it has the Kokiri, Goron, Zora, etc symbols across on each branch. I kind of like the idea but I'm not entirely sure I'd want it. - This is an example of incorporating some sort of musical tidbit into the tattoo/hylian crest. This one is just Zelda's lullaby written in the Zelda music notation. This is all I have for now but I may update with more ideas and thoughts as it comes, and I will give feedback as soon as I can to anyone willing to help me get this thing out! I've had the idea for almost 3 years, and I've never taken enough time to piece together a design that I'm completely happy with and I would love if one of you could help me bring it to fruition. Thank you ahead of time - Sam Last edited by dell2150; 09-22-2014 at 08:56 PM.. |

Re: Zelda tattoo design!
as a person with 0 experience in tattoos but lots of experience in how to make your dog sing la donne e mobile, I can't say much but I personally think tattoos are cool, just as long as you're comfortable with having it on you for the rest of your life.
maybe someone on here or someone you know in person or a friend of a friend of a friend of a fiend of a friend can help you out with a design

Re: Zelda tattoo design!
My dad mentioned 2 weeks ago to me that he had a partner at his work that did airbrushing or something along the lines of that, and they are supposed to feel just as real tattoos and wear off in 2 weeks or so, to see if it's really your thing. You gotta make the call whether you would be embarrassed to have it or not when you're 70-80 years old and it changes with age in your skin or something.
Can't stop you if you've already made your decision, just trying to open options of not having regret/grief down the road. Not a fan of tattoos myself, but it's a great choice. Last edited by gold stinger; 09-23-2014 at 09:13 AM.. |

Re: Zelda tattoo design!
Me too if anyone takes up the offer... xD several hundred thousand credits at stake here!!! Winning design of course gets a ton but I will even give people credits for offering their artistic skills (in any serious entries that is)

Re: Zelda tattoo design!
If I could actually draw artistically... I would help. It's funny though, cause I also am thinking of a Zelda tattoo. Although, a whole sleeve for me.
Picture this: The Triforce on my hand, (a smokey look), then flowing up my arm, all of the Medallions from OoT (in color), in a spiral type deal. Then adding some of the major characters, and maybe some bosses and the horse who hates water (Epona) thats all i have thought out for my tattoo thus far.

Re: Zelda tattoo design!
I tell you what though, would you be willing to drive to Indiana? I am friends (well it's my sisters friend) with this girl and her (ex?)husband that own a tattoo shop. Called "Blood Money Tattoo". You can find them on facebook, they may also have a website or something. Check them out. They do great work.

Re: Zelda tattoo design!
All my tats were spur of the moments and I still love all of them. It's been 12 years since I got my 1st. I want more, but they're expensive.

Re: Zelda tattoo design!
My very first tattoo was done on Friday the 13th, for $13 + $7 for the effort.
