Wearing my passion

[tombraider]

I'd been thinking about this for some time, so tonight we stepped up and made a start....:D

Decided to wear my passion on my sleeve so to speak...

Outline done tonight, 2 weeks to heal, then the details go on!

Other shoulder is getting something special too, in about 2 months!

Cheers

[spudboy]

Forgive my complete and utter ignorance, but what does the symbol signify? Have I been living under a rock or something? (I hope it's not something obvious or I'm going to feel even more stupid).

Very good Mike, but couldn't you have just got a pic of Lara....we can all recognise them......I mean her! :D :D

Here is was expecting a LR logo

[DirtyDawg]

Mike, I have only just stopped laughing, you knob, your just lucky it was a movie with a decent logo attached:D:D:D
I always wondered what you would start doing when you maxed out "Laras" mods and addons:D:D know I know..but no more logo Tatts I don't wanna see a OME long travel strut tattooed you know where:D:D:D or Mickey "T"'s on your feet:D:D
What does mrs Mike think or is she going the Suzuki symbol like a superman emblem:D
easy on the ink tho bro..It doesnt wash off;) get a henna one done first then see if you like it, if you do go the real deal, i;m due for another, I want my 4 kids names over my heart, I just haven't settled on a design...

[spudboy]

Thanks for clearing that up! I never saw the movie (or obviously any advertising for the movie either). Like Vlad - I was expecting a Land Rover logo when I saw the thread title.

No OME branding etc... But I truly love inkwork so theres another custom one being done in a few weeks on the other arm.

Personally, I can't imagine why anyone would disfigure their bodies with tattoos. I loathe them.

Can you imagine all these young girls with tatts when they get older and fatter? :eek:

Having said that, my son has quite a scar on his leg from where a car hit him. It's shaped a bit like a flame - so he had a cigarette lighter tattooed below it and a flame outline put around the scar. It does hide the scar.

Freemasons?! WTF. , the Freemasons & Celts don't get on (on account of the FM murdering so many Celts:eek: ).Love all the Celtic stuff in the background though

Lucky you weren't a fan of these movies - would make for an embarrasing tat. :D

Get a grip peoples....

Its:

A) Not a freemason symbol by any stretch.
B) The Celtic lines come from the ORIGINAL symbol

Tombraider

[tombraider]

Eye of Horace and the triangle of light represent other images.

The freemason symbol, whilst containing an "eye" is radically different to the eye of horace.

Eye of Horus

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_of_Horus#column-one), search (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_of_Horus#searchInput)
The Eye of Horus (originally, The Eye of Ra) is an ancient Egyptian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Egypt) symbol of protection and power, from the deity Horus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horus) or Ra (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ra).
The Eye of Horus,originally the Eye of Ra, symbolized royal power. The ancients believed this symbol of indestructibility would assist in rebirth. The Eye of Horus was found under the 12th layer of bandages on Tutankhamun's mummy.Horus was an ancient Egyptian sky god; one of his eyes was the sun and the other the moon.The eye represents a peregrine falcon's eye and the markings round it, including the "teardrop" marking sometimes found below the eye.
[edit (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php'title=Eye_of_Horus&action=edit&section=1)]

The Eye of Horus with fractions


In the Ancient Egyptian measurement system, the Eye Of Horus was used a form of fractional notation, each of the parts of the eye representing a different fraction. The parts of the eye were divided as follows:

1/2 was represented by smell, symbolized by the right side of the eye in a form of the nose. The pyramid text says: "Behold [the fire] rises in Abydos and it comes; I cause it to come, the Eye of Horus. It is set in order upon thy brow, O Osiris Khenti-Amenti; it is set in the shrine and rises on thy brow."
1/4 was represented by sight or the sensation of light, symbolized by the pupil. The pyramid text says: "Perfect is the Eye of Horus. I have delivered the Eye of Horus, the shining one, the ornament of the Eye of Ra, the Father of the Gods."
1/8 was represented by thought, symbolized by the eyebrow. The pyramid text says: "...the Eye of Horus hath made me holy...I will hide myself among you, O ye stars which are imperishable. My brow is the brow of Ra."
1/16 was represented by hearing, symbolized by left side of the eye in the form of an arrow pointing towards the ear. The pyramid text says: "That which has been shut fast/dead hath been opened by the command of the Eye of Horus, which hath delivered me. Established are the beauties of the forehead of Ra."
1/32 was represented by taste, by the sprouting of wheat or grain from the planted stalk, symbolized by a curved tail. The pyramid text says: "Come, the Eye of Horus hath delivered for me my soul, my ornaments are established on the brow of Ra. Light is on the faces of those who are in the members of Osiris."
1/64 was represented by touch, symbolized by a leg touching the ground. The pyramid text says: "I shall see the Gods and the Eye of Horus burning with fire before my eyes."

Bring on some more ink - this thread's lively at least!!!!

It's all good art work - too nice actually, bring back the skinny jailhouse tats - you know - the stick figure saint, the "love hate" on the knuckles, mum in a love heart, the half outline done dragon!!!!

Don't get me wrong. I have nothing against tattoos or Masons or anyone,
Tombraider, mate go for it, I wasn't having a go just telling you what I see.

Yes the celtic eye is very similar to the Tombraider image, it is also very similar to the all seeing eye of the freemasons, The pyrimid another masonic symbol, the measurements on your eye of horus with fractions (masons lived with measurements, they were builders and artisans)

The circular images and sun symbols, measuring implements etc

Mate I am not Sh1tting you have a look yourself

Also do a google search for freemasonry in the movies. tombraider is mentioned so is the symbolism.

The circular sun image on Tombraiders tattoo, the Inca's worshipped the sun as the god of fertility, as to did the ancient egyptians who called rhaa (the sun god) the ultimate god. They also had the eye of horus as a symbol way way way before the the celts. The Freemasons (free masons) builders of the pyrimids.

[p38arover]

How dare people desecrate their bodies with Jewellery, Ear-rings... Bracelets...

I don't. I wear no jewellery, not even a wedding ring. I think body piercings are stupid, too.

[Yabbie]

The ancient egyptians must have directed the original screening of the movie TombRaider on the wall of the pyramid.

I think I have just discovered the secret of the pyramids ..... they were just some old rich bastards home theatre screen.

Glad you didn't get the Tattoo on your old fella otherwise this would be a really short thread and it wouldn't be allowed in the general chat section :)

that is cool , I personally have both nipples pierced and boy o boy when they are played with it is like a yogurt truck hitting a brick wall !
Depends on where and what the piercings are for , mine are purely sexual ...eyebrows well , i spose you could get one on each side and hang a curtain rod and save on sun glasses :D

Valid point....

But our not so young kids have been spoilt rotten!!!

So time for some more 'selfish' pleasures....

Itching, none.. Scratching, none...

As for a Scar, Scar tends to suggest wound healing / Unchoosen...

A tattoo is a Chosen mark... Something that the person wearing feels/believes and hopefully WANTS if they think hard enough!!!

A display of individualism no different to modifying our vehicles or painting our houses in colours of our choosing...

Its expression of the wearer, and therefore, I AGREE, personal choice.

Your not a mason till you learn the sercret handshake and the dancing jig of the grand poo bar:D

Mike the Tattoo is original and thats got to count for something..not a leaping leopard or some sceptre carrying skull that delights the rms of thousands of drunken serviceman ...:D:D

Sith( Brad) your a funny phukker, yoghurt...:D:D I just hope next sunday you don't get too exited at some of RichardK's natural wonders (obstacles) we don't want any yoghurt hitting the windscreens...:D:D
The thread depicts what forums are all about, everyone voicing their opinion whether for or against..it is comforting to see mike got the irish temper package when he had the celtic design tattooed..unfortunatley I was born with it;)
I'm also glad the tattoist wasn't ****ed when you asked for the the eye of whores **** in a fur-less triangle..would have been interesting result:D
well keep the **** stirring going guys it makes for an interesting breakfast read....

[dobbo]

I now of a workmate that has 2 triangles of pleasure pierced into her body with studs. One is in her tongue, the other...................



I tried "it never happened without pics"









it didn't work

I never knew that about yogurt trucks and pierced nipples. I just thought about the hazards associated with catching them on shirts or when lifting heavy objects.

It could lead to a very embarasing moment when out on the town or alternatively a trip to the emergency ward with a nipple in a hanky.

At least with piercings they can be taken out and the holes sometimes close up

[Frenchie]

Cool, this threads had religion, a bit of politics - now where's the sex......

We need a nude woman, in a bath.....with a bishop. :D

P.s> Working on the other arm in a couple of weeks.... ;)

[CraigE]

Entertaining thread.
Tatts are not for everyone and a lot of people look down their noses at you once they find out you have got one. Each to their own and tatts can look good. Dont particularly like them on the forearm, hands, face and neck though as there are times when they should not be on show.
Mike,
The tatt looks good.
:)
Sith,
Your just a sick puppy. Whens the Prince Albert going in.
:p
I only have one, but would like a couple more when and if I can afford it. One over my heart with my kids names and an 05 A9X on my back.
:twisted:

[tombraider]

Your right, and whilst I like some peoples tattoos I personally have a 'guideline' I follow.

1. Each tattoo must 'mean or represent' something in my life
2. Each tattoo must be IMHO tasteful
3. All my tattoos are on parts that can be covered if need be for more 'conventional' tastes - eg Upper arm etc, where a Shirt can cover them.

Thanks for the compliments! Colour goes on Monday morning...

Cant wait to have it finished so I can work on the other arm :wasntme:

Tombraider

[matt4x4]

And....... What might be going on the other arm if I may ask please?

Now there's an idea for a "Parking Lot" thread - tattoos.

When I was a young knock-about-fella, I was frequently told by older knock-about fellas to never get a tat, as this is a brand and coppers can identify you by them, also that any sheila with a tat is a moll. This was the wisdom of the 1950's.

Well now it's 2006

Shame times have changed so much, the police still look for identifying marks

Some can look good, but the wearers should do their homework before commiting to ancient religious symbols.

[Bigbjorn]

I asked two Worshipful Brothers of the 31st. degree, Preceptor of the Coral Sea and Most Wise Sovereign, how to give the handshake by keyboard. They decided that as Freemasonry predated keyboards, then keyboards do not exist.

The term anal-retentive (or anally retentive) is essentially a vulgarism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulgarism). "Retentive" has been added to an original Freudian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freudian) term "anal," implying that any person so described is so uptight they have difficulty defecating.


Mate I'm from Scotish heritige, so I'm fairly sure it should be watertight

And yes If I wasn't a BFC a 50c piece probably could hit the back of my head if I dropped it.

But WTF has this thread got to do with the muscular capabilities of my sphinctor?

Lets just all be friends

Just show us your colouring in of your new tough scars


I for one am dying to see it

Settle pets, or i'll start culling some posts, that is unless we get pics of the coloured tat that is ;)

[p38arover]

And some should stop being such Anal Retentive Prats....

:2up:

Truly there are some people in here who need to stop being such idiots.

BTW - For the record, my heritage is Celt.....

What the hell caused that outburst?

Well now it's 2006

Shame times have changed so much, the police still look for identifying marks

Some can look good, but the wearers should do their homework before commiting to ancient religious symbols.

I know a guy who owns a specialised warehousing & logistics business at Acacia Ridge, Brisbane. He tells employments agencies not to send prospective employees who have "tough pictures, hardware, and purple mohawks" (or other ugly hairstyles).

In this day and age of anti descrimination it's hard to imagine but it does happen a lot.

It is a shame, but thats life

OK.... Enough....

1.. He only had 2 hours free after all that so the band has been blacked in that is all. Next visit is 24th October

2.. I dont consider my artwork TOUGH or a SCAR

From Wikipedia:

Scars are areas of fibrous tissue that replace normal skin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin) after destruction of some of the dermis (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermis). A scar results from the biologic process of wound repair in the skin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin) and other tissues (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_tissue) of the body. Thus, scarring is a natural part of the healing process. With the exception of very minor lesions, every wound (e.g. after accident (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accident), disease (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disease), or surgery (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surgery)) results in some degree of scarring.

Which is totally different to......

Scarification is a permanent body modification (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_modification) that uses scar tissue (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scar_tissue) produced by the body to form designs, pictures, or words in the skin. Scars are most often formed by cutting (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting) or branding (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branding) the skin. Scarification is sometimes called cicatrization (from the French equivalent).

Which is different AGAIN to....

A tattoo is a mark made by inserting pigment (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigment) into the skin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skin): in technical terms, tattooing is micro-pigment implantation. Tattoos may be made on human or animal skin. Tattoos on humans are a type of body modification (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_modification), while tattoos on animals are most often used for identification.
Tattooing has been a nearly ubiquitous human practice. The Ainu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ainu_people), the indigenous people of Japan, wore facial tattoos. Tattooing was widespread among Polynesian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynesia) peoples, and in the Philippines (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippines), Borneo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borneo), Africa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa), North America, South America (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_America), Mesoamerica (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesoamerica), Europe, Japan, Cambodia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodia) and China (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China). Despite some taboos surrounding tattooing, the art continues to be popular all over the world.



But I'd definately appreciate if this thread could be locked....



Some people seem to have no tolerance of difference, or are over voiced, over opinionated persons.

In this instance I need no chill pill, but choose to end this topic before I get banned or moderated.

Tombraider........ Please dont have the thread locked. I for one, AM interested to see the final result. I agree that all members are entitled to our own opinions, and at the same time agree that some went too far.

Mate,

don't take offence - it's whatever your floats your boat.

You like it, it's yours, if others don't - they don't have to ;)

He doesn't consider it discriminatory but rather self preservation. He believes he is keeping antisocial d--kheads with head problems off his payroll.

A CES Senior Case Manager once told me how he classified tats.
(1) Professional art. No spelling mistakes.
(2) Home art. Usually done ****ed or drugged. (Both of them). Poor quality linework and bad spelling.
(3) Gaol art. As per (2) but done over a period of years and showing variations in colour, and skill level.

This guy, a CES operator of thirty years experience, was adamant that very few employers will employ a moving picture gallery.

https://www.aulro.com/afvb/images/imported/2013/09/470.jpg Wearing my passion
I'd been thinking about this for some time, so tonight we stepped up and made a start....:D

Decided to wear my passion on my sleeve so to speak...

Outline done tonight, 2 weeks to heal, then the details go on!

Other shoulder is getting something special too, in about 2 months!

Cheers
Tombraider

This is Tombraider allowing those that want to an opportunity to see his new tattoo which he is proud of... it was not meant to be a debate about peoples feelings on tattoos, whether people should have them, or any other topic than showing of His Passion.

The debate that has been happening is now finished as requested by the author of this post which was hijacked.

[Outlaw]

Now that's all over and done with... can't wait to see the new pics Tombraider once the colours in place so will expect something in here after the 24th :D
