I just got it tonight, so its still swollen and a little bloody in these pics. The photos I take tomorrow after showering should be better.

Ditto! That shit is slick! I especially love the controller cord and the pad itself!

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

It's his penis, of course!  Real PCE players have cocks of steel!


What an awesome tattoo!  Too bad it takes some explaining for most people.

I think it's funny that a ton of people (usually the younger ones) will just wander into a tattoo parlor with only a vague idea of what they want, choose something out of a book, get a tat of it and think it's cool.  But Black Tiger gets extremely unique tats.  He also has Air Zonk somewhere.  I can pretty much guarantee that nobody else in the entire world will have the same tats.  I personally don't have any tattoos and would never get any, but hell, if you're gonna get 'em they might as well be awesome ones like BTs!  He even has Street Fighter 2 ready to go!

That's awesome.  A great job was done on the cord.. it looks like it's popping out of your leg.

Hahahahaha!  That's f'n crazy cool shit there Black Tiger, but now you'll have to keep shaving your arm or else the PCE will turn Wookie.  Did your needler look at you like you were nuts and keep asking 'are you sure'?  :lol:

The tattoo is on my calf, its almost 7 inches wide. That was already pushing it size-wise to get that kind of detail in it and I don't have enough room left on my arms.

I don't have an Air Zonk tattoo, a friend of mine does. I only have three PCE related tattoos: the PC Engine, Bonk and the pentagram from Dracula X. He has Bomberman, Bonk, Lords of Thunder, Hudson Soft logo, Zonk as well as a bunch of other game related tattoos like Sonic, Mario, Neo Geo logo, Quake II logo, the Night Warriors sisters, Dragon Ball Z. I've a page with pics of both our Turbo tattoos almost finished for my site.

Even if I get something with someone else's artwork/image, I design the 'flash' myself and break it down for the tattooist so its as close as possible to what I want. This one was a real pain in the ass to put together. I probably took over a hundred photos trying to capture the perfect angle for the console and the pad.




I have very light hair and am very un-gorilla, so I won't have to keep shaving my leg after the hair grows back. The tattoos on my arms and back are perfectly visible.

The next day photos didn't turn out much better, since it they were taken in the evening, but here they are if anyone's interested-
