I've always wanted a tattoo that would symbolize my favorite games I've played throughout my life. Games that have meant something to me or remind me of fun times. I've been playing games since the Atari 2600. I wrote down each system I owned and what games really stood out or made an emotional connection with me. As the list came together I realized that while I grew up on Combat, multiple C-64 games, Mario, Zelda, etc. none of them really made me want to have a tattoo with then on me. I also wanted something different. Most gamer tats I see are Mario, Zelda, etc. I didn't want that.

I choose a mix of older and more recent games. It was done at Cast Iron Tattoo in Orlando, FL by Larry. It took a total of six sessions lasting an average of three hours each. I went the past six weeks every Thursday. My artist is a gamer too so he had a real passion for this work.

I found all the source images on Google or on box art. I post them if anyone would like to see them. Thanks for looking. Great forum BTW.

My picture taking skills are not the best but I think I've done a decent job of capturing the work. Thanks.

Nice tattoo man. I love how you chose Malek from KOTOR instead of Revan.

Bitchin.

Hard to choose Revan when the player chooses the characters appearance. Malak is always the same.


Great tat though. I don't know if I could do that, but more power to you. Noticed the Jedi Outcast bit, loved that game. Still break it out on occasion.

Yeah what Dag said. Reven could look like anyone. Plus I like Malak, great character, even though he's a direct Vader ripoff.

Nice work. How many hours did that take?

Six sessions, three hours each.

That's awesome. Must have cost a pretty penny.

Nice, I don't have that many hours with all the ink on my body. How far are you going to go with it?
