Tattoo Guide : Where too & Where Not too
How To Choose Your Tattoo’s
Many people talk about having tattoo’s and how cool it is. Some have butterflies, some have dragons, some have names and the list goes on. I have a few myself and each of my tattoo’s mean something to me and that calls for the need to ink myself with these images. What i havent done very well is linking them together in a way which looks awesome together.
I checked out Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) who has a awesome tattoo on his left arm. Little did i know that each and every detail had soo much meaning to it.
Check it out ->
A) These are coconut leaves, or niu, which denote a Samoan chief-warrior.
B) This is the sun which brings good fortune.
C) This isa/ga fa’atasi (three people in one), That’s me with my arms open. As it continues on my chest, it connects to my o lo’u to’a/ua (my wife, Dany) and my o lo’u afafine (my daughter, Simone Alexandra).
D) These descending swirls represent past, present and future, with the future becoming ever bigger. The pattern continues under my arm, where its meaning is written: “It changes in the place where it is found to be gone.”
E) These two eyes, called o mata e lua, represent my ancestors watching over my path.
F) This is the Great Eye, It’s an intimidating symbol that allows its user to possess the spirit of his enemy. The eye is used to distract the enemy in a confrontation.
G) This broken face, marked by shark teeth—a symbol of strength—is my spirit protector and a symbol of my struggle.
H) This is the priest and spiritual guide, who raises a warrior to enlightenment and supernatural power under the eyes of the warrior’s ancestors.
I) These are stones of achievement and abundance. They’re the foundation of my life and symbols of my dedication. They bring the right to stand and speak with honor as a Tula Fale—a high talking chief—and they maintain mana, or supernatural power.
J) This is a tortoise shell, to deflect evil spirits. Warriors used shells as shields.
How about that! Just to remind you that it cost more to remove a tattoo and twice more painful. So if you are going to get one or add to a existing one, think and plan .. Its going to be there for your lifetime so take your time in deciding what you want to get.
Delirium’s Guide To Picking A Tattoo Design
More and more people get tattoo’s these days , some due to peer pressure and some do it because they simply love ink on their skin. Well i personally have a few of my own and itching for more and in the process of looking for a design, i already knew what i wanted to achieve of this stint. I pretty much have a few on my arm and wanted to find for a design that would merge these tattoo’s in a form of a sleeve.
While looking for a design i looked up some designs online and spoke to some friends and realized that some dont really realize that tattoo’s will be there for the rest of your life, unless you plan to spend more money that it cost to have it in the first place should you decide to remove it.
What should you consider BEFORE getting a tattoo?
So here are some of Delirium’s tips when picking a tattoo [Read more...]
Tattoo Convention 2009- Kuala Lumpur
Tattoo Convention Kuala Lumpur 2009 will be at PWTC (Hall2) from the 6th till 8th November 2009. All thanks to Borneo Ink and gimmelovetattoo for sponsoring the event.
Its always awesome to check out lots of tattoo artist in one space and showing off new techniques,art work and trends from around the world. I think that the tattoo community in Malaysia is rather small and it be nice to see who else is there that could put some more ink to my skin! I have been warned not to put any ink on my skin this year but next year onwards ….

I Need INK!
Ive been itching for a tattoo lately! If you have been reading my blog, yeap..my tattoo artist is dead! If you didnt know that…SHAME ON YOU!
Anyway…ok time to move on and get a new “INK MAN”
Thanks to TheDaneshProjects i found this nice list of tattoo shops around Malaysia but the who is good and who is crap?? I dont want someone who will take something off a book and tattoo it straight to my arm, i rather have someone who you could give your idea too and he gets creative and comes up something that says YOU more then anything else
Its weird, when you go to one guy for your ink, you form a bond..Its like he knows whats best for your skin and naturally being a repeat customer,price is under control too!!
Anyone knows a good,reliable and creative tattoo artist??
I plan to get a sleeve done on my right arm, basically finish up some un-finished business!
This is going to be one that i do then im going to stay off the ink for a while….i hope!
