I recently got a tattoo on my left shoulder, and have intended to get one on my right shoulder to represent the two sides of my family/heritage. I decided I wanted a third tattoo on my right bicep just under the sleeve to represent my 3rd family - clan TA.
Whether it's another one by poor CheekyDuck, who has to drive 1.5 hours each way to get to the tattoo parlour, or someone else I need to find a design that will look effective as a relatively small logo on a curvy area like the bicep but don't have much experience with tattoos. The obvious options are the TA logos but a whole new design would also be acceptable.
I was hoping some people with an artistic eye or experience with tattoos could help me out and think of some ideas for a sc2sea house clan themed tattoo that will be with me forever! To me it will represent not just the players in TA as SC2 teammates, but as some of the best friends I have ever and will ever have. The fact we play the same game doesn't matter as it could be any game but events like the TA retreat have cemented this bunch of guys as some of my best and closest friends on or offline.
Hopefully someone takes interest in this, and I will post my own ideas here too, so to start you off here are the general themes and logos of TA, and what kind of things I am/am not looking for in the tattoo design:
Themes: TA letters, snake/serpent, Australia, simple, small, black
Do not want: Plain text, too big/intricate, colour, SC2 theme (we were originally a BW clan and it doesn't matter what game we play)
A good starting point may be the TA logos throughout our history, though only the latest one is a realistic tattoo choice. Even then, the perfect circle and some of the fine detail may mean it will not turn up well in a small tattoo.
TA logos
Thanks for your input and I look forward to seeing some new ideas!
