Best Movie Tattoos

Blood In Blood Out - From the small cross tattoo Miklo (Damian Chapa) gets tattooed on his hand to the large detailed prison tattoos blood in blood out portrays tattooing prominently. The fake tattoos where designed by Freddy Negrete and Gill Montie both are tattoo artist and both had small extra roles in the film. The main tattoo design is a snake wrapped in a circle eating its own head, it signifies entering into a gang that you can only leave threw death. There are also several characters that have full sleeve tattoos everything from traditional Aztec tattooing to Nordic images. Also released under the name Bound by Honor, Blood In Blood Out is truly the gold standard of movie special effects tattooing.

Eastern Promises - Also prison style fake tattoos but from Russia. Nikolai's (Viggo Mortensen) tattoos where intricately designed to tell the life of a Russian gangster each image being a sort of badge showing his rank in the Russian under world. There where 37 individual fake tattoos designed for Eastern Promises, from larger back pieces to small detailed finger tattoos. The tattooed images while appearing religious in nature are actually symbolic of a criminal lifestyle. Eastern promises uses the fake tattoos as a plot vehicle and the story could not be told without the tattoos.

American History X - Arguable the most powerful scene in the movie takes place as Derek Vineyard (Edward Nortan) pulls his shirt down showing the swastika tattoo on his chest and spouting "see that..that means not welcome" a scene that could not have taken place without the fake tattoo. The charterer has several upper body tattoos all nicely done. The tattoos are well done and look very realistic with over ten separate pieces designed and applied.

5 Sexiest Places Females Get Tattooed

Behind The Ear - Size is very important when placing a tattoo behind the ear. A small tattoo, generally smaller than the size of a quarter or smaller, will look best behind the ear. Tattooing behind the ear is one of the trickier area so a good artist will have to be sought out. When a tattoo behind the ear is sized right and tattooed well it is one of the sexiest place a female can get tattooed

Under The Bra Strap On The Rib Cage - This is a very sexy for a woman to get tattooed. Basically the placement is under the armpit at the top of the rib cage. It is a large area so a tattoo as small as two inches or as large as ten inches would look quit natural there. This area takes tattooing well and a competent artist should have no trouble applying a quality tattoo there.

Hip - The hip is a classic sexy area for female tattoo placement. On most woman this is a large enough are to do substantial tattooing but even smaller work will look nice. The hip takes tattooing very well and even intricate tattoos should have no problems healing nicely when placed on the hip.

Back Of The Knee - A well sized tattoo placed on the back of knee can be sexy. This is hard skin to tattoo so a skilled tattoo artist must be used. The area itself is fairly limited in size so smaller pieces will look the best behind the knee.

Top Of The Foot - The top of the foot is a great place for a woman to get tattooed. Not to be confused with getting a toe tattoo which never quite works out. A smaller tattoo under four or five inches looks best on the foot. It is a fairly hard area to tattoo and will require a good tattoo artist to insure a proper healing tattoo.

Best Tribal Tattoos For Men

The Tattooed Poets Project: Gina Myers

Today's tattoo comes to us courtesy of Gina Myers, who is the third poet this month to come back to the Tattooed Poets Project after appearing last year. Check out her 2009 contribution here.

Gina sent along this tattoo, which graces the inside of her left wrist:


Gina explains that this tattoo:

"... was done by PJ at Old Town Tattoo in Saginaw, Michigan. In addition to the word bird, I have several other birds tattooed on my body: a pigeon named Franklin, a phoenix, an eagle, and a number of swallows. "Ginabird" is one of my nicknames, and "bird" is a nickname I share with my best friend. I always thought it was weird when people got either their own names or their own nicknames tattooed on themselves, but this seemed okay since it was a shared nickname. It's not really about me. My best friend said she is getting the same tattoo in the same place, but that hasn't happened yet."

Be sure to head over to BillyBlog and read one of Gina's poems that she picked for us here at The Tattooed Poets Project.

Gina Myers lives in Saginaw, MI, where she works as the Associate Editor of 360 Main Street, the Book Review Editor of NewPages, and the Reviews Editor of H_NGM_N. Her first full-length collection of poetry, A Model Year, was published by Coconut Books in 2009.

New girl tattoo fiesta 2010

Pete and his sister sure love tattoos.

Hillary Wentz showed us the fashionable side of tattoos..

I love unique people like this!

New Tattoo's: pretty tough

new tattoo inspiration: Chanel

I'm pretty decided to get a tattoo and I hope it happens soon. I want something very discreet on my hand, something characteristic for me, but I haven's made my mind yet about what it should be.

Main inspiration: Chanel's S\S 2010 Collection. I think Lagerfeld couldn't get it more right. The tattoos definitely give a chic yet grunge touch to the entire collection. Love, love, love!

The bad side about getting a tattoo is surviving the terrible pains. So firstly I have to prepare myself physically, to endure the suffering.

How about you? Do you have any tattoo\ intend on getting one?
