Though honestly I could never understand "sleeve" tattoos. While they look interesting up close, but from afar they look horrible.
Same here, I have a (fairly) simple Biohazard symbol on my left shoulder (the same one that has a metal rod in it from a car accident). It has a bit of a 3d effect to make it unique, but overall.. simple = good.
When you get too complex, or try to be all "cool" with it (like putting mediocre porno barbies on it), it loses meaning. 3 years from now, you'll regret that tattoo. When you get married, you will be wanting to get another tattoo just to cover that one up.
Tattoos are meant as a form of PERMANENT self-expression. Anyone who gets a tattoo for any other purpose, or without the intention of something being permanent, is an idiot. Yes, your convictions about EVE are strong right now. But think back to 20 years ago... nobody would even consider the scope and depth of EVE as it is right now. That was pure science fiction. 20 years from now, I can guarantee that EVE won't exist, and I can also guarantee that you will regret that tattoo.

That actually doesn't look half bad.

I have the 3 Amarr bloodline symbols on my arms, and got similar responses when I posted them on the forums. At the end of the day as long as you're happy with your tattoo then that's all that matters.
I'm still just as pleased with mine now as I was when they were first done. The sky didn't fall, EVE is still here and I'm still playing.. the reasons behind me wanting them are still the same, and still remind me of why I had them done in the first place.
So kudos to you, I look forward to seeing the end result, and as someone else said, welcome to the club  |

Thankyou for the props.
As to the various comments, yes it doesn't look straight as i am kinda twisted so i could take the picture.
My waistline is 21 inches, hardly a huge gut.
I wont regret it, i love the styling, i also love EVE.
I have many tattoos, some are more geeky than this Eve one, but they have been done artistically, with care and attention to detail.

What I never seem to understand is why people take tattoo's for these kind of things. Try to explain what Gallente is to someone when 20, 30 or 40 years have passed. But well maybe it is just a lack of my mind not being open enough.
Anyways if you are happy and stay happy, I will be happy

Yet another person that I'll immediately dismiss if encountered in real life. People with tattoos scream poor decision making in life. I've thrown peoples resumes into the trash immediately after an interview based entirely on their showing up to the interview with uncovered tattoos. |

Nice shallow decision making process. I shiver to think of the talent you're dismissing out of hand, simply for someone having decided to get a bit of ink. I know many a fine, talented mind that has gotten a tattoo, covered or not.
Just FMI, where does your narrow-minded ass work, so I can not bother to waste my time? Not that I have any tattoos, I just don't want to be subjected to your little view of correct/incorrect. |

Not sure where you work where people show up to interviews with their shirts off... can't be that prestigious at least. Maybe a NMCF facility?
I've always talked buddies out of getting tattoos visible while wearing t-shirt and shorts, and I think the OP's tat is on his back as well.
I think people who have children show poor decision making, but that hardly applies in a lot of cases. If someone wants body art, I don't see how that is a bad life choice. It is definitely one of the things that is becoming more and more acceptable in this current generation. I suppose you are the type that waves his cane at the rascally kids on their skateboards listening to their rock music?

It's on the left side of my stomach. All my tatts are easily hidden, with maybe the exception of one, on the back of my neck. But then, if i had a collared shirt, you wouldn't notice. |

I hope that in 60 years, when I'm in an old folks home, people will ask me what those tattoos mean. Remember, in 60 years time, I won't be explaining it to your grandad, I'll be explaining it to your best mate. It'll be our generation in the home, and it'll instigate one hell of a reminiscence about our teenage to mid-life years, because this sort of thing is what we did. |

Sociology and Psychology have both shown that a first impression is very often right, meaning you can judge a book by its cover.
Also getting a Tat just to cover it up is demeaning to both the wearer as well as the art of tattooing, but that's just my personal opinion.

Except that thats bullshit, because everyone has a different first impression of a person, and not everyone can be right, not even close.

What about those darn coloreds and those pesky women trying to take away our jobs. Don't forget to toss the fresh from school and the over thirties as well. Check the hair too for gods sake. Too long or too short and they're out. A turban, nose ring or yarmulke is a definite no hire.
Keep America white, 20 something, conservative and male. Right?

I'm not doing the search for you but the relevant articles are out there.
If you make a bad first impression while applying for a job it's your own damn fault. Tattoos don't make for a good first impression at most companies. Do the math yourself. |

hence why you dont get them in stupid places
and why you dont uncover them when you go to an interview cause thats stupid too.
you shouldnt pre-judge all people that have tattoos on the example of a few people that have no idea of how to interview.

I'm not denying that tattoos make a bad first impression. What YOU said was first impressions are usually correct. I've already linked a source that says 40% of the population has tattoos.
You are telling me 40% of the population conform to every bad stereotype of the tattoo wearer?

Stop jumping to conclusions then.
A tattoo puts you near a certain social environment and it's only natural for "normal people" to assume that yes, you might not be good at long-term decision making. |

Anyone who isn't a sailor or an ex-con? You yourselves immediately associated tattoos with criminals, after all.
Generally speaking, although I admit this might only be true for Europe, casual, fashionable tattoos are sign of the lower classes.
It wouldn't surprise me to find them on 40% of all Americans, what with your 3rd world economy right now. |
