MrToby Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 A quick search around on the forums here produced nothing so I thought I would start this thread. Basically let's see all your geek tattoos from fossils to crazy lizards as well as computer games and circuit boards to the tree of life. Anything that could be counted as geeky/nerdy or anything in between. Unashamedly I am a bit of a geek about a few things. Anyone that knows me will tell you how excited I get about rocks and I think it's something to be celebrated. So I will start off by referencing my own ammonite tattoo that I have up in my gallery. Interesting and cool tattoos of any sort are always fun. gougetheeyes, TaeTae, ChrisvK and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4722-geek-tattoos/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

passive jay Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I am pretty sure my tattoo counts as a geeky tattoo.

MrToby Posted January 21, 2014 Author Share Posted January 21, 2014 Very cool there @passive jay Here's a few other as well. Firstly some planets by Tim Kern and Gerry Carnelly respectively and then a Hammerhead with the Tree of life by Jason Corbett.

MRCL Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I got Kratos from God of War... 1st tattoo, about a year old. Not good to photograph. Quality of the tattoo itself is also a bit "eh", but who cares, first ones are allowed to :P Born Without a Face and LadyGabe 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4722-geek-tattoos/#findComment-83871 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boiled Dove Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 So would a large TARDIS count as a geek tattoo? Zillah, iowagirl and LadyGabe 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4722-geek-tattoos/#findComment-83875 Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutOfIdeas Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I have a friend with at least 3 zelda tattoos, and plans to possible devote an entire arm to chronological peices from the zelda books Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4722-geek-tattoos/#findComment-83916 Share on other sites More sharing options...

bugxjuice Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Has anyone else seen that Science Tattoos book? Tons of geeky tattoos in there, nearly all of them are bad though. Some are good ideas executed poorly, some are just straight up bad ideas. I have a black and grey trilobite tattoo, I suppose that qualifies.

Born Without a Face Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I dig your Deku Scrub Ducky ^. Awesome thread! Here are three tattoos I have done. One is a Charmander from Poke'mon, one a helmet from the Dark Souls videogame for PS3 and one is a Papou fruit from Kingdom Hearts. I actually look forward to doing more tattoos like these.

I think you are referring to Carl Zimmer's book from a couple of years ago. I was hoping for better tattoos in it too. Some were ok but I agree - most were not great.

Harlot Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I am so happy there is a geek thread. :) I just got a tardis tattoo not long ago and I'm trying to decide what else to add to that arm. I'm not sure if I want a DW theme or just scifi. I'm a big Star Trek fan (original & TNG, not the reboot) so maybe the Enterprise? But then I would want to work in Firefly and Alien and my arm isn't that big. lol Zillah and LadyGabe 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4722-geek-tattoos/#findComment-90027 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I briefly thought of getting a space scene with the TARDIS, the Battlestar Galactica and Serenity it it...

taylorn Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 So would a large TARDIS count as a geek tattoo? I'm so tempted to get a Tardis! In the meantime while I ponder what style and where, I might just get a small 11 tattooed for Matt Smith on my wrist or ankle.

I have no idea how it will hold up over time as a tattoo, but they sure are nice to look at fresh and new.

polliwog Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I liked this Princess Mononoke tattoo by Melissa Baker. I've seen a lot of really illustrative Miyazaki tattoos that don't do much for me, so this is a little different. cltattooing and Zillah 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/4722-geek-tattoos/#findComment-91056 Share on other sites More sharing options...
