Any shumppers hardcore enough to have shmup tattoos?...

[Klatrymadon]

Excellent tatts, folks! Especially the R-Type one.

(Incidentally, I have almost no interest at all in doing anything I mentioned back in 2005, now. Just goes to show that you should give these things time! )

Not mine, but still cool though.

Ehh...except for the fact that with that Font the A and the R look identical

[Ebbo]

To be fair, they look very much alike in the game too

Thanks, here's one off topic, but just because it's cute and I found it along with the others:

Is anyone here hard-core enough to have twins?

what kind of cab is that with the red CP? looks like an modified egret 29 with a more upright monitor.

Gah, you had to make me notice. Looked totally fine till you said that.
But that is still an awesome tat.

with the spacing between the letters been so bad, im sceptical that it is a real tattoo. also that square doesnt seem right but it could be the skin streaching it out of place. i hope someone can prove me wrong though

yeah, it's an egret with an upped monitor section plus high on some big wheels. I went through a phase where I was into US style cabs. Might be pics at http://www.rest30.com/vids/vids.htm er it's this http://www.rest30.com/vids/arcadestuff.htm but it doesn't show the other side and how the monitor was raised

I don't have a shmup tattoo but I do carry a boom box everywhere and blast WARNING! A HUGE NERD CAPTAIN PAIN IS APPROACHING FAST!

[chempop]

Guwange sleeve is under way as of 5min ago. Starting with centipede outline in this session. Will either get it colored in the next session or get the spider cat started

Can't up pics from my phone to this site for some reason. I'll have to do it when i get home. Have actually had a second session just last week on this project. centipede is actually scabbing over now and the red fleshy color peeling away looks so rad. It's nowhere near finished but it already rad as hell

[nash87]

it's had a coloring session, but this is just the outline prior to that. outline by itself looks super sick. i should probably share this over on the shmups FB group too

back of the leg


inner calf


edit: not shmup related but, you see my avatar? that's tattooed on the back of the other leg. shark sweat drop and zoom lines included

[Stompp]

Wow, nash87 :O Beautiful ink work!

all thanks goes to my artist for drawing it up on the spot. dude has a mame cabinet in the shop and when i said Guwange he responds with "i know that game" and goes over to set it up. has me get to the centipede and stop shooting so he can study it move around. He has some serious passion for what he does. the old arcade knowledge he has is a great coincidence and bonus i never would have expected the first time i walked in there years ago

[trap15]

Damn, that's pretty cool.

[emphatic]

The tattoo is great but the fact he knew Guwange almost tops that.

[nash87]

The tattoo is great but the fact he knew Guwange almost tops that.

he bested me in an obscure psikyo argument too. his gaming knowledge is only surpassed by his art it seems, especially his shading. the red legs he colored in are actually scabbing off right now and look so meaty and fleshy.

[Stevens]

That looks dope. And the Haggar with the shark is probably dope too. Enjoy them!

[Stevens]

How is the sleeve going Nash? Moar pics?

6 days from now the centipede should be fully finished. I'll upload a pic of it before it starts to scab

[Stevens]

Looking forward to it!

Also I may have something for you later..

[Stevens]

It was going to happen at some point..

One week healed:

Spoiler

I have another 6 to 9 hours of work ahead of me so you'll notice things missing (like the helicopter's rotor:). My next two appointments are this upcoming Friday and the 19th.

[LordHypnos]

Sweet!

[nash87]

all clean and pretty


all bloody and vicious. this may be my favorite photo ever, something about how metal and raw it looks...i can stare at it all damn day





i have another appointment just 10 days from now, get hype for spidercat. my wallet is gonna be hurting just as much as i am at this rate.

i forgot to get a pic of it's tail which he added some classy stripes to. i'll get it tomorrow when the sun is up

[emphatic]

That's quite the looker!

[Blinge]

Stevens that's fucking awesome man.
