Here's the one I mentioned. This is designed by me and the artist Nick Skunx (who has tattooed Joey Barton, Chelsea Clinton and others) and was actually done by him.

It's Huginn and Muminn – Odin's ravens – and the design above them is a symbol for Odin, being three interlocked drinking horns.

I am currently planning more work – particularly cover-up stuff. So if you want any ideas/advice. please contact.

Quote: DGM "That's my thoughts on it too.

With tattoo's, you either get something personal & considered like Mintball speaks about, or something that's fashionable at the time.

My mate about 12 years ago went for the latter. A huge tribal design down one arm, shoulder and chest, when tribal/celtic designs were all the rage. Looks dreadful now. I remember lot's of girls getting the "deer antlers" at the bottom of their backs too.

These days its "sleeves", which I reckon in 5-10 years will look pretty naff too.'"


Tattoos used to be a symbol of individuality and personal expression; they seem to have been appropriated by the mainstream now, to the extent that not having any is more of a symbol of individuality and free thinking expressionism than the ubiqutous sleeve or sailor tats.

I'm not especially ar$ed, and I certainly don't favour curtailing people's right to do what they like with their own body, but I can't help thinking that the 18-25 year olds who are covered in ink now as a fashion statement, will have some serious buyer's remorse when they enter the grown up world and want/need to be taken seriously.

Fashions change and a lot of the tattoos I see on young'uns these days are purely fashion statements. Will those full sleeves down both arms or the retro sailor look still look good in 10 years time, especially if they decide they no longer want to work in a barbers shop or be an expressive creative?

I mulled over a tattoo about 12 years ago and did pretty much the same as what Orrell Lad advises. It took me quite a while to decide what I wanted but when I was set on it I gave it a year of thought and decided I'd made the right decision by not getting it done. Now I look back and thank my lucky stars I didn't go through with it, I'd have looked a right wally!

Going back to the OP. Rhinos related? What if they drop the Rhinos moniker in a few years time? It's just happened with Wakefield and I've seen loads of the (now) old Wildcats logo tats at games over the years.

That's kind of my point; as a child of the 80's, I have made some truly horrendous fashion statements, particularly during my new romantic phase. Thankfully, I'm not stuck with the eyeshadow and enormous hair for life - which seems to be the fate of those who choose tattoos as a fashion statement.
