Random Request

Really really really random request, I've decided what i want for a tatoo, being someone that lacks any form of motivation and lacking any real resistance to pain. I was going to go for something smallish, but I was wanting to incorporate eyes i dunno why, but was thinking more along the lines of a grim reaper style character with a misty haze over his face with just purple eyes shining through, or I wanted something similar but involving fire and red eyes shining through, help me give my stupid uncreative mind some help. Also if anyone knows of something similar or has pics that'd be phat with a capital PH, as apparently you need to take a copy of the image you want done with u.

i was thinking if you want to incorporate some kind of coloured eyes and a grim reeper kinda look, what i was thinking was something like a "ghost rider face" seeing as he has a skull face and those kind of glowing eyes.

Skull symbolism is instinctive in human nature. The human mind is primed to recognize faces, and so eager to find them that it can see faces in a few dots and lines or punctuation marks; the face that looks back from a human skull cannot avoid recognition as having been once human. Moreover, a human skull, with its eyes much larger than in life, displays a degree of neoteny, which humans often find visually appealing. Yet, a skull is obviously dead. As such, human skulls have a visual appeal beyond the other bones of the human skeleton, and can fascinate even as they repel.


Get a tattoo that you wont regret for the rest of your life.

Thats actually a really really really good bit of art there tbh. the reason I want a tattoo with the reaper on it is mainly to symbolise and remind me that im not immortal, with friends dying when i was at school and recently a family friend was diagnosed with lukemia for the 3rd time, and if i had one i'd just like to be able to remember that at any point I could die, and to appreciate what i have. In the same breath I dont want it to be dreary like death is, as like you say it has to be good enough so that you dont regret it for the rest of your life.

You want eyes and u want the reaper effect eh?

Well I got this idea. You could get the eyes done and in the eyes you could put in the flame effect. That will give life to the eyes. Regarding the reaper effect - you could put the devil's spade in the background with a creepy hand on it..just the hand and the arm a lil bit if you wish to. Depends on the size you are going for. For small sized this would be better and a little of the abstract wont hurt I guess.

Tell your artist about what you want. He should be able to come up with a good one.
