Hi all,
I recently joined the halls of ridiculousness, and got myself an EVE related tattoo.

Just wanted to show it off :)

At the time of finishing (3 hours) it was sore as buggery!
I'll be going back soon to have some light shading on the crest Big smile

At first I laughed.

Then I realised you're stuck with that monstrosity on your body, and I laughed harder.

Coming to the EVE forums hoping for praise... really bad idea. You could find the cure for cancer and you'd still be flamed for it.

I can't agree enough. Also you look a bit pasty, go outside once in a while.

I think it looks nice, make sure you post more pictures once you got the final work done on it. Smile

It's a weird mix of EvE, Gothic Lolita and P*rn.

So uuuuh... How drunk were you when you came up with the idea?

Honestly.

On a sidenote I could go into detail about the social implications of tattoos these days but ehhh no.

On the lower back of a male, there really isn't any social implications. As for the other comments. Tbh its not that bad considering its the initial run. Granted its not something I would get myself but I've seen a lot worse.

Judging from the skin pattern that tattoo probably go well with your obnoxiously large gut

Good stuff man, welcome to the club!

edit: and don't worry about the haters. Seems to me 50% of the population will tell you a tattoo is hideous, no matter whether its an amazing artwork worthy of the Sistine chapel or a great homage to something important to you.

What they are recoiling from is not the art work itself but the thought of being so committed to something that you'd be willing to have it permanently engraved on your body to become part of your identity. These are the same people that keep the divorce statistics high.

If you've decided to get an eve tattoo, then its definitely part of your identity anyway, so why not show it proudly?
