Refused a tattoo

[HHazeldean]

I'm not usually a fan of tattoo's but that looks Awesome!

OP: seems very strange that you'd get declined to do a tattoo for that reason, but all good that you've got it sorted

This is one of Firecrests tattoos.....

Outstanding, would need to go the gym though

 

[mrcharly]

To be fair a cursory look on Google images did take me to two English supremacy websites..

Ditto.

It seems that the tiw image from sutton hoo has been adopted as 'their' symbol by at least one far right English nationalist group.

"All the world is mad but me and thee. And sometimes I wonder about thee."

People can believe anything.

I had a sobering reminder of that when I tripped over this the other night

Here is lindseys work, the owl is awsome.

That bloke with the tribal tattoo that dave put up, doesnt go gym. All men around here look like that, it is a darwin thing, if you aren't built like a prop forward you get either drowned at birth or dont survive nursery school.

And don't tell him about the cheese chase!

Seriously though, you should tell your local rag about this, something amusing for a slow news day, and if it costs the tattooist business...well, we don't need bigots.

I see a turtle and a shark.. but im sure there is a third one but cant make my mind up ?

Yep, symbol for the sun.

Only reason I can think of off the top of my head. Hate when symbols get corrupted like that. Wasn't the swastika originally a religious symbol before corrupted by nazis?

It is not a long story, you went to a tattoist you had known long enough that he may of been slightly upset with you. You asked for a om symbol, he drew a scat in the shape of a backward 3. Lindsey corrected it. Wasn't he the same tattoist that did a boss eyed bulldog on a skin heads back, because the bloke was really irratating. Saying that the turd was well a drawn turd.

Hi Firecrest, just tried to pm but your inbox is full.

Much of today's tattoo art, general art, architecture, religious symbolism and just about everything else may have its origin in this:

Is this the origin of the ancient Hindu swastika symbol and Isle of Man Triskelion? The Sutton Ho symbol too.

I know some who think they know better will scoff but perhaps they can keep their opinions to themselves and let people absorb information and make their own judgement. I think we will see much more tattoo and general artwork directly associated with this in the future. All is not as it seems, is it ever?

My family migrated from Northern India about 200 years ago and we just found the flag of that region and at the base is 2 swastikas.
