That would be a pretty cool tattoo, smaug I mean. I go on leave pretty soon (Yee-Haw!!!!!!!!!!!!), and I had planned on getting my name (Bill) tattooed on my back, right below my neck, in tengwar, which looks cool (you have to sound it out, I could give the names, but I havent got the books here)

Also, I was thinking of getting Glorfindel and the Balrog by Alan Lee(?) tattooed on my back (the rest of it), but that will take some time (and money

I think it is by John Howe. And yes it's an excellent selection.

Glorfindel rules.

Whoa....

I saw the Smaug, and did a double take, because my copy of the Hobbit is shibby: It's hardcover and green, with that Smaug in gold on the front.

i have an idea for a smaug tattoo. it's going to be the picture of smaug from bilbo's map in the movie. you know in fellowship where gandalf comes into bag end and picks up a map of the lonley mountain region? there you will see the magnificent smaug i will be proudly sporting across my upper back.

i like the idea also of a sprig of elanor. does anyone know what it looks like? where can i find a pic?

my friend has one of a heart with a banner across it inscribed "speak friend and enter".

another friend has the leaf brooch from the fellowships' cloaks.

I like that idea, of the heart with "speak friend and enter"; very cool. For a while now, and with the help of Katya here on the Moot who writes Tengwar just beautifully, I've been getting a tat design put together that will be my homegirl's nickname and my nickname written in Tengwar. Everyone I know has some tattoo or other; my sister's got Nine Inch Nails and a huge Star of David among other things, my best friend has all kinds, but me - I've been tattoo-free my whole life. If I get this Tengwar tat it'll be my first.

I've read it.. and that's exactly what I'm getting.. the same flower at the top, but a different stem... more tribal..

I'm thinking about getting my name in Elvish Script on my arm or my shoulder. I think that would look cool.
