Title: Zelda Tattoo
Post by: HylianKnight on September 25, 2006, 04:37:28 PM
I already have a tattoo of the symbol on the Hylian shield (the triforce above a bird holding the supposed 'fourth piece'), and I'm about to get another one and I kinda want it to be Zelda-based too. Anyone have any ideas?

How about the Sheikah symbol? Or any other race's symbol?

What do you mean with hylian text? Like, just letters shaped like hylian letters (TWW style)? And does it have to be Sheikah style?

Well, I found the thing on this site that tells you how to decipher the writing. Its a language, so I though it would be cool to use it to write something out. Its kinda cool.

What's wrong with that? I know someone with a Nintendo logo tattoo, seen pics of people with Warcraft tattoos and so on.

The best thing I ever saw was not a tattoo, but someone who had painted the ENTIRE Legend Of Zelda overworld map on his entire car. That looked so awesome.

Ah yes, I had forgotten all about that. It's pretty good, but the order is important too. I know a few bits of japanese, so I might be able to help. Any idea on the text? Sheikah related or just tloz related?

Well if you mean having someone else's wifes name for a tattoo let me give you a scenario.

Freind guy: Oh, hey Frank I see you got a new tattoo, "Susie" is that your new girlfreind?

Frank: Uh, no it's well uh my neighbor's wife...

Or if you mean the game heres two scenarios.

Woman: So what do you do in your spare time?

Guy: Oh, I play video games and stuff.

Woman: So what do you do in your spare time?

Guy: I play Zelda! Check out this sweet tattoo!

Woman:...

Awesome (both yours and the other one.) What does the text beneath your tattoo say?
