Wheel of Time Tattoo

[macmoney]

i definitely agree about the dragons. especially the point about the metallics. i cant really decide between the wheel icon or a quote. but the quote will probably win out..not too sure.

I've gotten some more work done to my WOT tattoos. I actually won a contest w/ the tattoo shop and got a free hour of ink.. took about 30 minutes to decide what I wanted to do. My wheel / serpent looked unfinished and I wanted to add the spear, banner and andersova (sp) leaves. I left it to the artist to figure out how to make it work. Though it's not 100% identical to the compass icon I am very happy with the result, and it unique to me all the more. We decided the proper phrase was "a rendition of the logo" I still have to get it colored - left it in black / gray until I can decide what I want to do with it.. probably just going to go w/ brown haft and green leaves though I have half a mind to go blue with it too (favorite color) Also got a couple of spots on the dragon touched up... this is from when it was a day old.

That is freaking amazing! I think it looks good enough just black and white.

If I'd get a WoT tattoo, it would probably be something like this, only the snake being different color.

 

WoT has a lot of nice symbols that one could get as tattoos and still not appear as nerdy fantasy geek if that's what you're afraid of. Good examples in this thread are the Aes Sedai symbol and that snake & wheel symbol xD

 

I'm putting this on my shoulder, its my next piece I'm getting

[bloodyflamingthisandthat]

I have 11 tattoos but no WOT yet. I've been planning to get the Aiel Vow in full down my left side for years. I'm running my first marathon in December and plan to get that done after the race.

Also, about HepC in US facilities. It varies from state to state but most states that license facilities require the artist to put the ink in a seperate container and then use a fresh needle each time and to throw away the unused ink after each tattoo. If your artist does not do this then find one that does.

First time posting but I've been lurking round this site for years, figured I'd share my WoT tattoo. I've had it for just under 6 months now, so its still fresh. Let me know what you think!

[JenniferL]

Dude, where were you Thursday afternoon when I was writing my column?

[flafro]

Hah, my bad. I've had a lot of compliments on it from people who don't even know what it is.

[EpitomyofShyness]

Hah, my bad. I've had a lot of compliments on it from people who don't even know what it is.

 

 

Oh my god that is the most badass thing I have ever seen. My jaw is on the floor.

[NicholasFallon]

well - call me impressed. Very nice... I really like how the different parts are all incorporated with each other. Was it drawn / designed by yourself or was the artist a WoT Fan ?

Very, very well done piece of ink. Great work and very cool design. Love it!!

[Puny]

It´s beautiful flafo. I especially like how the Raven is cluthing the Wheel and it´s nice that it´s grey. =) Really sweet tattoo

[pminze]

Flafo that is Great ink, it makes me want to go out and get another WOT tattoo. Thanks for sharing it.

Thanks! The artist had no idea what it was, which I think made the sleeve turn out as amazing as it did. If you couldn't tell by now it's an homage to Matrim Cauthon, which I just took in a few pictures and my artist told me to come back in a few days to see what he put together.

[Chriswot]

flafro I gotta give you some props for that man. You should think about adding the clan chief dragon to finish off the sleeve on your forearm. Would look sick imo.

[FizzLiz]

This is my husband's arm with our daughter Nynaeve. He is planning to add the dragon and the dice to the other side of his arm in the up coming year.

[Windstrider]

Wow that half sleeve makes me not even want to post my measly spear and wheel. That is an amazing tattoo man.

Holy crap that WOT sleeve is AMAZING!!! I would just sit there and stare at your arm all day. But in a cool, suave way...not a creepy stalker way.

[Windstrider]

I've got a good pic of my wheel of time halfsleeve..... How do I post it?

[ZeshanHamdani]

i think drag and drop can work. or the insert media button when u r typing. it shows up as three different color windows in a small box all the way to the right of the smiley face

[Windstrider]

Hopefully this worked, again, if the size or quality is bad, chock it up to me being much more book smart than computer smart.

[Louise]

Holy @*!#

Flafro, dude that is freaking awesome!!!

 

Once again, holy @*!#

 

Wow, just... WOW!!!

 

I'm planning one too, just as per usual, I can't make up my bloody mind.

I think I want an Old Tongue phrase at this stage.
