theres a lass in our gym, shes stunning,,,, absolutely cracking body, hour glass without an ounce of fat..

but shes covered head to foot, all pretty colours,, but she almost has a full suit, what a fucking waste, i always think, one day youl wake up in 20yrs time and be almost suicidal at the reflection in the mirror


in the same context, there was a scaffholder i used to work with who was in his 50's, started to loose his hair only to reveal a bulldog with union jack tattoed on the back of his head ( obv skinhead in his teens), he must feel stupid at that age taking his grandkids out for the day etc

If you have to ask this question to random people on a web forum, its prolly a good idea not to even get one.

I wouldn't worry too much about what you have. If you live a while it will eventually look like a blob of faded blue shit anyway.

The pharaoh pic you linked to is way too dark. It will be impossible to see any detail in it. Go to the library (more than once) and look over books and books of art, and any topic that you are interested in. If you see something you like take the book over to the copier and pay the 10 cents. After getting a shitload of pictures that you feel your REALLY like then go through them and start purging out ones that don't look so good.
As far as the comments about 20 years from now they look like a blob, not true. I have had many of mine for over 20 years and I get compliments all the time on them. And tattoo's inviting trouble, not true. But they are for life. They are much more accepted now then when I began getting them. 4 years ago I was promoted to corporate manager of a Fortune 500 company with full sleeves and other visable ink. I honestly did not think when I got all the ink I would make it this far because of them but I made the choice.
I totally understand the negative remarks, it is really hard for people that are not into them to think they are a good idea.
Oh and that "lass" at the gym in the body suit, please send me a pic, I love tatted women!

Don't overthink it.  Go out, get roaring drunk, and just pick something really big.  I guarantee you will be happy with your choice.

NO.  Do not get that.  You will be making a fool of yourself.  You would be mixing Roman/Greek and Egyptian Mythologies. 

Anubis is the Egyptian God of the Underworld.  Cerberus (the dogs) is the Greek Guardian of Hades.  Do you see where this is going? 

Now, instead of using Anubis with the dogs, you could use Hermanubis, who was a Greek combination of Hermes and Anubis.  Anubis later became Osiris by the way.  Use Hermanubis and make him hold the chain of one dog but with three heads (Cerberus).  But, before you do anything like that, study and know your Egyptian and Greek mythology, the tattoo's and symbolism will mean a lot more to you.  You might also find out what they really mean and see if the whole thing even fits you.

But don't use Anubis with Cerberus.  Cerberus being a Greek creation or myth, would conflict with Anubis.  The Greeks thought the Egyptians were primitive and ridiculous because their deities wore animal headdresses.  So putting an Egyptian God with a Greek myth offshoot (the dogs) wouldn't make much since.  It would be like getting a tattoo of Jesus fighting Hades when it should be Satan.  See what I'm saying? 

Now, I know the dogs your posting are not necessarily Cerberus, but those dogs are an offshoot of that, especially with Anubis holding the chains or like your wanting it to be.  Study your mythology closely.

I'm Thoth, the God of Wisdom adorning the Baboon headdress, but I like to think of myself as a Vanilla-Gorilla ;) with some serious wisdom, HAHAHAHAHAHA

Pretty sure if you are on here asking GetBig members what to get for a tattoo, you are are about to get a terrible, regrettable ink job. So go for it man, that awesome tribal you picked out will look great ;D

getting my first tat, i dont want some dumb shit so im gonna get a half sleeve on my left arm..

i want someting that looks badass, not some gay pussy shit.  but i dont want something that will draw too much attention at work or make me look like a thug...

i was thinking about going with an egyptian thing,,get the egyptian cross,,,a big pharrow head on the side delt,,maybe with a skull in it instead of the basic one,,,,and maybe this but im unsure about it...

basically instead of a reaper holding two pittbulls (too gangster looking),,,maybe the greek god anabius holding two pittbulls...

so something like this,,,but without the reaper
