Egyptian Tattoos

Egyptian tattoos are very beautiful in nature and with such a variety of artwork to choose from, it can be difficult deciding on simply one design.

Some of the most common Egyptian tattoos include, The eye of Horus (sound eye, Wadjet) which is believed by many to possess power, prosperity, protection and wisdom.

Other popular Egyptian god tattoos include, Hathor the Goddess of love, music, dance and is represented by cow horns and a sundisk on the head. Anubis is know as the god of embalming and is represented by the head of a jackal. Ma'at is known as the goddess of justice and is seen with an ostrich feather in her hair along with winged armed.

Enjoy these beautiful pictures of wonderful tattoo ideas.


Cats were highly regarded by many ancient Egyptians and were better known by the name "mau". Its quite common to see Egyptian themed cat tattoos.



These type of tattoos are seen on various locations of the body, with the back and arms being the most common areas.



Other Egyptian tattoo designs that are quite popular is the Scarab Beetle, which is often seen in the form of an amulet. And of course the very common Ankh (Cross) which is perhaps the most recognizable symbol of ancient Egypt, along with the mysteriously intriguing hieroglyphics.

Eagle Tattoos

As we mentioned before, if you are an animal lover and seeking a bird tattoo of any type, you are in for a treat, because bird tattoos are hands down some of the most captivatingly beautiful works of art on the market.

Not surprisingly eagle tattoos are perhaps the most common of all bird designs, which comes naturally for those of us in America, when you consider that eagles go hand in hand with the American flag and are symbolic of freedom, prosperity and patriotism towards the United States.

Enjoy this picture gallery of fantastic eagle artwork which will most certainly help you come up with a few ideas.



The most common location for an eagle tattoo includes the back, chest, bicep and calf area.



As for the details of the actual design, it seems that many people like to have the eagle donning open wings to appear in flight or perhaps swooping or striking its prey.



Some people choose to combined multiple designs into one piece of art, however unlike many other tattoo ideas, an eagle is such a prominently beautiful creature they look exceptionally bold as a stand along piece of artwork.

Bringing the dead back to life

Many people have extinct animals tattooed in their bodies but not everyone notice it. Some people think extinct animals are strictly dinos and never realize there's more to it than a reptile. Here are some examples of those who are no longer with us.

Dragonfly Tattoos

The dragonfly is an exceptionally beautiful creature which seem to possess a certain mystical quality, perhaps because of their resemblance to what a fairy is imagined to look like, or maybe its because of the ancient Asian myth that a dragonfly represents virtues including happiness, success and victory among other positive aspects.

Dragonfly tattoos are also enjoyed by both men and women, unlike butterfly and fairy artwork which is most commonly seen on women alone.

Checkout these cool pictures which will most certainly give you some great ideas for your dragonfly tattoo masterpiece.



Dragonfly tattoos are very rangy in both style and size, as we see a few of excellent designs above, one being a large back piece and another much smaller ankle pic.



Some other common locations include the foot, which is perfect for very small tattoos, and the hip which is popular among girls.



The is no color restrictions for this type of tattoo, in fact we've seen just about every color under the sun, but perhaps more commonly, blue, purple, green and black ink are used.

Excellence

This is the type of tattoo that the person wearing it proudly displays. The detail, style and artistry of its creator can be well appreciated.




Girly sleeves, why not?

In our society there is a group of people with a lack of knowledge about the Tattooed Community and they simply can't picture in their minds anything related to tattoos and have a misconception (perhaps they're just intimidated by the aggressiveness) of tattoo enthusiasts and still in 2010 I believe those kind of people have a limited brain when it comes to anything outside the environment they're used to or they simply want people to live.



I've heard people say tattoo don't look good on girls or girls with sleeves don't look feminine at all. It really make me ask myself "what the hell they're thinking?". That proves how full of shit those people are and how ignorant certain group of people can be. I believe they should do some research before they open their mouth and if they don't feel like digging into it to learn one thing or two then they should close their trap. 



This were some examples of ladies with sleeves and yes they do look sexy. What make them different from the typical, boring, ass showing ladies is the art in their bodies which also allow people to be more creative at the time of the photo shoot. This ladies here show Ink and skin, the others just show ass OR simply promote what they sell. If anyone think this girly tattoos looks manly then let's see a man wearing the same tattoo in their bodies.
