Stargate Tattoos

[T3rmin4l]

Is there another place you can put it without conflicting with the current one?

For a tattoo design, gate addresses look... well, kind of bitty. Like the people who have their kids' names tattooed on their arms with as much care and attention as if it was a shopping list, as if they're going to forget which one's which if they don't have their names right there.

If you wanted to use just one, you could get it done within the bounds of a cartouche - the rounded oblong-y 'border' used in ancient Egypt.

Here's a really nice pic of the cover stone from Stargate the movie, with a gate-address cartouche in the centre:

Notice (DJ did) that the point of origin glyph is included as the 'tails' of the cartouche.

You're putting the Ancient alphabet on your body? May I ask why?

I like the outline and the text itself.
And i am a big fan of the stargate story..

was thinking of the same thing!
Glad to see another stargate in Maine!

hi guys! ima stargate fan of old and i loovveeee the idea of getting a stargate tatoo. although ive never gotten a tattoo before. i would love the Symbol of Moloc because of the power of the women of the Hak'tyl but a symbol doesnt do it justice. i want the Symbol for Moloc and something else in Goa'uld or something but i want it written in that script and language not just in english letterin you know what i mean?? Can someone please help me out? also is there an alphabet for any of the languages? like for the ancients or anything? so i can form my own words??

I think it is great to get a tattoo of what you like. I wouldn't mind getting one for SGA.

Looks cool. Makes me wish I had at least one SG tattoo

I've considered getting tattoos for just about every science fiction franchise I've ever been obsessed with (Star Wars, Firefly, Stargate...) and decided after a while that I'd probably have to get tattoos for either all of them or none of them, because my obsessions are multiple and change on an unpredictable basis. Kudos to those who have managed to pick a science fiction franchise to be so faithful to as to get a tattoo! I'm a little too indecisive.

I'm partway through my SG-1 Stargate - it's part of a back piece comprising ships from Firefly (Serenity's already done, next to the gate), Star Wars, Star Trek, Farscape and Robotech. The piece will be finished off with an SGA gate.

Please excuse the swelling, this was just after the last session. Event horizon is in the process of being filled.

I love my tattoo artist, he's done such a great job with the detailing.

I am extremely close to getting my first tattoo! Im considering getting a simple Earth Point of Origin on the top of my right foot, or a Stargate Cheveron on my left shoulder.

Either would be a great choice. I tend to like the chevron idea more but I also know that it's because that was what I got for my first tattoo so I'm a bit biased

[Hallnavy]

May I see it? The only reason I'm not too sure about the cheveron, is because I cant picture it
