Rad as hell.

haha what exactly was it's inspiration? mountains & ocean?

It's the album art to Joy Division's Unknown Pleasures. The guy that designed it, Peter Saville, got it from an astronomy textbook. It's supposed to be a diagram of radio pulsars from CP1919; the first radio pulsar ever discovered, actually.

Anyway, I'm a huge Joy Division fan, and I found it interesting enough to be inked on me.

looks ok to me. at that size realistic is out of the question anyway. if you did anything, just add a little contrast to it.

it had a tiny bit of contrast to it when I first got it colored in [originally i only had the outline]..but it scabbed up REALLY bad and got caught on a pair of fleece pants, basically ruining it :( Haven't had time to get it touched up.

Got it done like 6 months ago. Came out a lot bigger than I planned, but I love it. And the tattoo artist said he'd never even heard of it being done before, a major plus.

Nice! I was the same way. Decided on mine, waited 3 years to get it. Have my next one planned out already, just keep pushing it back in case I change my mind.

Thanks.

Yeah - getting a tattoo is not something one should do half-assed.
Ever.

I thought it was sound waves, in like a visual, Like when you enable visualisations in media player.

It's supposed to be (or a least taken from) the waves a collapsing star makes.

Designed it. Waited like 5 years to be certain of decision. Had it inked in 2003.

I collect elephants, so I put one on my body...currently not a huge fan of it...really wishing I would have gone in a more realistic direction with it rather than cartoon-y..going to be seeing an artist soon about possibly fixing it!
