Just got this the other day. Figured I would share with my fellow war gamers. I told the artist I wanted a heresy thousand sons sorcerer that had already converted to chaos. He delivered quite well.

**CrashUSAR**

He delivered quite well indeed! How much did this piece run ya?

**Ralin Givens**

I am surprised he knew what you where talking about

**gannam**

Its good to know tattoo artists that play 40K

**Ralin Givens**

Now thats just plain cool, my budy tried to get a Aquila and the dude thought it was a german eagle and freaked. Goodtimes....
Anyway it looks awesome man, the color is superb

**Element206**

That is a bold move to get something like that tatooed! A true fan of chaos! I admire the guts it took to do something like this!

**em_en_oh_pee**

A guy in my gaming group has the 4th Ed Cover Art (just the Hammer) on his arm. Another guy has an entire John Blanche sleeve (in progress). Dedicated fellows.

As for this - not too bad at all. The artist knows color well enough, that is for sure.

**ghuhagen**

Wow now thats commitment to the hobby!

**Cutthroatcure**

Hell yeah, Very nice color!

**Beer_&_Bolters**

I fully support this tattoo

I'll say he did! I assume this isn't your first piece, since it's fairly large and ornate. So, what's your next piece going to be? (If you have more than one, you're never done.)

Haha as if Chaos is any better, especially since this guy knew what Chaos is! Im pretty sure theyr just as bad

But awesome tat nonetheless!
Do you guys think Abaddon would be about the equivalent of getting A " Heart Mom" or Kermit the Frog tatoo? At least you went with the cool side of chaos, much props

**balsak_da_mighty**

I have the Nurgle symbol on my arm...I am of course a follower of Nurgle, Lord of decay..Mwwaaaahhhhhaaaaaaa!

The only problem is the person that did it was appreticeing and he was not that good at that point. So not quit as good as this one. But I like it and will wear it prodly.

PS: Very impressive tat by the way.

**AvatarForm**

Now, that's commitment...

**40k Ninja**

Im suprised this guy knew what it was!

**Killamop**

I have much love for nerdy tattoos, I myself have Tengwar on my arm quoting a Tolkien Poem.

I was thinking about getting an orky tattoo but I don't know.

**KingCracker**

Someday Ill get some Ork glyph tattooed on me but thats a ways down the line of others

But I must say, serious kuddos to the artist, that is a fantastic tattoo

**Theofilos**

Amazing!

**darthbanesith**

Awesome colour.

I've got the Imperial Aquila in metal effect on my left shoulder.

@OP:

Cool piece.

They'll have to carve it from my arm to get it back. Idiot Copyright/IP law can suck my bolter.

**Murenius**

Really nice

I've seen GW reference and showcase people's GW related tattoos in their publications. I'm sure that was written up by some lawyer and it certainly anything they actually enforce.

Anyway, that's some really nice work.
