Haha, Turtle. That's the kind of nick name you would hear in the 80's towards some fat slow kid of the gang or something.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

That Bonk tattoo is very nice. I'm a professional tattoo artist (www.needlefreaks.com) and my right lower leg is all videogame tattoos...I have the entire sleeve planned out but I'm just getting them one at a time. I don't have photos right this minute but I've got the 'S' logo from Super Metroid, a Space Invader, Morrigan from Darkstalkers (which is outlined and shaded but still needs color), and a flaming Atari 2600 joystick with a banner that says 'GAMER.'

Once Morrigan is finished, next will be an original Donkey Kong and DK Jr. piece I designed, then future additions will include the Fox Hound logo from Metal Gear, the original Centipede arcade side art, and a whole bunch of other stuff that I don't wanna tell you about for fear of someone ripping off my ideas ;P

I've also done a couple of gamer tattoos on my friend Brad who owned an arcade. I did the original Pac-Man arcade side art on his calf, and one of the Shadowlords from the Joust arcade marquee on his left shoulder.

At one point I wanted to start a website devoted to videogame tattoos; if I ever go through with it, I'll definitely contact you =)

Cool man. The guy who has all those tattoos I posted has a Morrigan tattoo with her little sister.

I love Donkey Kong Junior(I play DK3 the most), the flyers for it have my favorite classic Mario style art and I used one on my
MAME cabinet.

I know what you mean about being paranoid about losing tattoo ideas/original flash. 90% of my tattoos are originals which I design myself. Thats why I don't post scans of the original art online.

Oh there's always room. ^_^ I think the cartoon PCE console in the manuals is probably the one for me.

Hey that's a pretty cool one to have. You could use the cartoon HuCard and CD as well.
