Falcor and the Auryn Symbol

by Glenna on April 12, 2013

In full on color color we are presented with a half sleeve tattoo from The Neverending Story.  Both Falcor’s face and the Auryn symbol are represented in a 3D style.  The Auryn symbol is popping off the skin in glossy blues…which is odd since the story tells that one is black and the other is [...]

Mr. Miagi Portrait

by Glenna on November 4, 2011

Hey, not only is this a good portrait tattoo…it’s a pretty sick tattoo of Mr. Miagi and tribute to the Karate Kid movies in general!  Done by Bob Tyrrell of Detroit, this is a tattoo on the forearm of a fan of Mr. Miagi’s wisdom and wit. He’s seen here fairly serious, but that’s because [...]

R2D2 Tattoo

by Glenna on September 27, 2011

ET – Phone Home!

by Glenna on August 29, 2011

Wow!  The realism of this portrait is awesome.  The skin on ET looks very realistic and leathery just like it did in the movie.  His eyes are glossy as he looks up into the sky – he points as he says his famous line “Phone home!”   The dimension and feel on this are top notch [...]
