Hi. I’m Animal.
I have seven tattoos right now, with the intent of covering almost every piece of skin below the neck and between the wrists and ankles, minus the section covered by boxers. And potentially a cummerbund. Not sure how I feel about tummy-tats.
Each of my tattoos are symbols, taken from either an entertainment medium or spiritual source. In order, the Sigul of Eld from Stephen King’s Dark Tower series (right wrist), the Triforce from Legend of Zelda (inner left arm), Captain Jack Sparrow’s signature tattoo from Pirates of the Caribbean (outer right forearm), the Endless Knot – a Buddhist symbol representing the infinite recurring circle of karma (outer left forearm), the Myachi Glyph – a modern symbol and the logo of my company, representing the Mind and Body as connected by the Spirit (outer right forearm, front side), a waning gibbous moon (left ribs), and the Aces of Aleister Crowley designed, Lady Frieda Harris painted Thoth Tarot (right ribs).
I have a mohawk.
I play Myachi for a living. Most of you have probably never heard of it, but it’s a really interesting game. Similar to hackysack, but played using the back of the hand. Perhaps you’ve played a game with a lighter where you toss and catch using the fingers, but no palms? It’s the same thing, but with a softer, secret sauce filled rectangular bag. If it’s allowed, I have some videos on YouTube that I can share. My account on there is the same as this one.
I’m 23 years old, a college graduate with a BA in English, minor in History. If you know a good book, I’m interested. I like reading, especially graphic novels – Marvels is fantastic, painted by Alex Ross, so it’s absolutely beautiful.
Didn’t mean to pen a novel, but yeah. Now you know more about me… but I need to meet you.
Hi Animal
Saw the clip and looks damn fun, just wish I was fit enough to do it.
Well what can I say about me?
I am a 32 year old fraud investigator from England. I am currently studying for my PhD and I am doing research into a book/dissertation into Tattoos and Taboos – a collection of ink and personal experiences so if you want to share any I am more than happy to listen.
I am an absolute nut/geek/fan for all types of tattooing and art – drives my wife mad.
I guess my biggest faults are talking/typing too much, been hot tempered, and an utter bastard in my job – yes it is true we did sell our souls to knighthawk.. I mean Satan 😀
So there you go a bit of show n tell.
Enjoy the forum.
Take Care
Matthew
