What would make a socially acceptable Warhammer 40K/Fantasy/AoS Tattoo? A picture? A quote?
>>
>>44404645
This, in elven:
Upon the isle beneath the fight, wise mages cast their spells And Daemon minions howled in anguish, cursed to eternal hell. And on this day we bow our heads to he who world did save, Aenarion the Proud Defender, Aenarion Ever Brave.

Full version:

Brother spoke the four as one, together we shall rule, Surrender to the Darkness within your heart you know holds true.'
In his hand the Sword of Khaine did promise power untold, As God of Light and God of Murder battled for his soul.'
One by one the Daemons fell and Elf Lord he stood tall, For should he fail upon his task then mortal world would fall.'
Upon the isle beneath the fight, wise mages cast their spells And Daemon minions howled in anguish, cursed to eternal hell.'
And on this day we bow our heads to he who world did save, Aenarion the Proud Defender, Aenarion the Ever Brave.

I'm planning to get this on my chest, over the heart. Along with the words Exitus Acta Probat.
I know it's pretty edgy and autistic, but fuck it

It would be exactly completely fucking sperglord autistic. Unless you have hardcore game, money, looks, or social skills, do not even consider this bullshit.

It's colchisian - or whatever Lorgar's homeworld was called - runes.

>>44404645
Deciding what the tattoo should be AFTER deciding to get a tattoo is objectively the most pleb, scene kid, it's not just a phase tier shit you can do.

Fucking don't. You'll look like a tool.

Legion Number on forearm

"X" or "IV"

Nothing else

Yeah, looking like a straight edge faggot is totally socially acceptable.
>>
>>44404645
Get Lorgars Face Text put on YOUR face OP.
>>
>>44405856
There is a vast difference between the X straight edge faggots use, and the Numeral X

It really depends on the design though, the Straight Edge 'x' tends to be on ones hand, unless I am mistaken and it has changed over the years.
>>
get the Munitorum skull and wings with your social security number and blood type. when people ask you where you served get a distant look in your eyes and describe your last table top game.
>>
Get the lecitio divinatus tatooed all over your head and body

All the same, if you guys wanna sperg about what kind of shit you'd consider we can do this thread.

I'm not actually getting a tattoo, I was just curious what would be the best one. And this is it.

Shit wait, I thought you said get his face tattooed in your face. Nm

The emblem of the most based legion of course.

DO NOT GET AQUILAS. Retards will mistake you for a neo nazi, and it will look pretty bad to any employer of yours.

Legion Numbers, Chapter Symbols, the Inquisition =][=, the Chaos Marks, Tau symbols, etc would be acceptable in a discreet area.
>>
I never found the appeal of tattooing something from a game. Of all the things in life to find supreme importance from, you chose a GW product?
>>
>>44409528
IMO not better nor worse than absolutely any other thing you can put on your saggy flesh.

Pick one.

y'see that?
>>

Yeah, but a Warhammer tat might get you some nerd cred at the FLGS.

NOBODY is going to appreciate AoS ink.

Nurgle simbol and 3 skulls. Getting them in a week.

>>44410359
People would assume it is some kind of Egyptian thing.

I see what you did there.

I kind of want the sisters of battle's fleur de lys, in a discreet place.
>>
>>44410490
Tramp stamp?
>>
>>44410459
No matter how tempting it is, kids, don't fuck Rountree. You'll feel dirty after, in a way that you can never clean.
>>
>>44404645
Practically every other line/litany from the Infantryman's Uplifting Primer would easily be mistaken as Christian by those who don't know any better.

Social acceptance of "Christian" quotes as tattoos may vary by area.

If she isn't getting it under her eye she is a heretic, that is why I suggested a heretical place for it.

Would anyone else not bang someone with a nurgle tramp stamp? I wouldn't, seems like a clue.

I have an imperial fist storm shield on my shoulder blade that merges into my d20 shoulder/half sleeve. I fucking love it.
>>
>>44411179
this is the only true answer

>>44404645

A faction symbol other than the Imperial Aquila.

I have a marine moto tat already on my left shoulder think about getting a 40k quote on the inside of my right bicep or other upper arm. Choosing location is kind of rough because the tattoo regulations are so strict these days.
>>
>>44412298

I feel like USMC regs are reasonable though, since they always want to present that immaculate dress blues and service uniforms to civilian eyes, and that includes showing the skin on your lower arms and neck for the charlies. Anywhere tattoos are not allowed to be shown in the Corp are the same places they will be frowned upon in most workplaces.

It's stupid, but tattoos are still not completely socially accepted yet, and the military and government especially are very slow moving when it comes to adopting change. The way I see it, your shoulders, upper biceps, entire chest, abs, back, etc, should be more than enough canvas for your ink.
>>
>>44412485
I just don't like how much it's changed my Drill Instructors had full sleeves and this strange obessesion with being "presentable" is making it unpleasant. Like you can't have two tattoos that show within a certain distance of eachother or its considered a sleeve and can get you NJP'd or admin sep'd
>>
>>44412594

Those were probably grandfathered in. Even half sleeves aren't in regs I believe, which sucks. But badass sleeves aren't the image the USMC wants to promote.

They were grandfathered in I know that for a fact. I just find it rather disappointing that that is a problem in this day and age. like I understand bans on tattoos on the face or neck and even back of the hands. I just find it hard to believe that myself or any other marine can really take the regulations seriously especially when there are tons of people who we look up to as marines (just about everyone wants to be their drill instructors when they grow up) and yet they aren't meeting standards. Furthermore these people are getting denied promotion on the basis of tattoos despite being good marines. All its doing is hurting the institution in the name of maintaining it's image.

I have a quote from Malcador the Sigillite split into two little paragraphs on my left arm. Inside bicep and inside forearm.

Picked a classy as fuck font and I have no regrets.
