Tattoo idea?…..?
hey , ihve been thinking of getting a tattoo done for quite sometime now…. i have an idea of what i want but i cant seem to put it on paper….
im a pilot and i love flying , it means the world to me and i want to get somthing related to that….. i dont really want a bird or wings or anything.. unless its very different…. i want something abstract ….
.
the only image that comes remotely close to what im thinking of is the Kuwait Airways logo…. its a plain and simple pic of a bird in flight……
basically what i want is something , that when you look at it…. you think of flying.
can anyone suggest anything? it would mean a whole lot…. thanks!
“when once you have tasted flight , you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward ,for there you have been and there you will always long to return”
-Leonardo da Vinci
FYI phish…. i DID spell plain right…. idiot.
and also, i will be able to donate blood about 12 months after i get my tattoo.
thanks to everyone.

im suggesting u dont get a tattoo. here’s why:
if a really close friend or a relative is dying and needs blood donation and ur the only peron around with the same blood type, u cant donate blood to them and ur gonna have to watch them die. i kno this sounds mean but its the truth. u cant donate blood cuz ur blood is not clean/pure anymore.

if it means that much to you, then it seems like a good choice
just remember, it’s permanent, it might be great now, but u’ll have until u die, so essentially u’ll be a 80 year old with a bird on ur body

your wings pinned on your left breast pocket is the best taboo you could have and if you get tired of them you can take them off. Once you get that tattoo it is for life if you decide you don’t want it, it takes laser surgery to remove it and it will cost you a lot more than putting it on.

Well a bird flying past the moon maybe? I guess it up to you, u should at least try to skech a little something (but get somebody else to do the real tattoo if you arent an artist). just the idea of wut it would look like, that always helps me wen i draw (um… yeah im an artist x3). Hope i helped a bit ;D

I think you need to go to a tattoo parlor and have them help out with your drawing…and perhaps get that quote you have by Leonardo da Vinci underneath your tattoo. Whatever you get I am sure it will look awesome!

be original.. don’t get one! everybody’s doing it.
if you like a logo, have a shirt made, at least it wont be there on your body forever.
oh ..and “Phish” if you’re gonna accuse someone of not spelling something right, try reading the paragraph in context then you’ll realize she didn’t spell “plain” wrong

That sounds great.
Take it to a shop and they will draw it out.

Sure – how about a flying squirell. You get the whole “flight” concept without the usual “bird” or “wing” images that have become such a cliche. You can have it in different poses – like flying across your back and also poking its head out of your belly button. Pilots have important jobs – but it is always nice to have a sense of humor too.

I know it’s not what you where thinking but it’s an idea…something that’s ‘different’. I suggest getting pilot wings (or even the Kuwait Airways Logo) on the left side of your chest where you would pin your wings. Like where you place your hand on your heart….
Sorry I don’t have any pics. I would sketch one for you but i don’t have scanner. The first pic is the Kuwait Logo and the second is wings. Nothing really special, but placing it on your “heart” is original, in my opinion.

you should find a good tattoo shop with a good artist and take him or her your ideas and the two of you can bang something out, That’s part of what they get paid to do.
And yes you can give blood

Rather than the flight or wings side of it you could explore the sky and air side. You could have one of these words written or you could even have some skilled tattooist draw a ‘sky’ like scene with lots of clouds. You could even incorporate lots of beautiful blues and pinks and oranges. It would even be a nice idea to have the da Vinci quote on or near the sky scene in a lovely scrolling typography. You could even have the words in white. That would look amazing!
Hope it’s a bit of a different idea for you!! Good luck. Hope you find what you’re looking for!!
