So TL, what do you think of the tattoo I'm in the middle of getting? That's right, as we speak, I'm being stabbed thousands of times by a needle.
It's Pac Man getting chased by a ghost, eating dots and a cherries powerup around my arm. 200 points, mother fuckers!
I'll have pics in about an hour 
Edit: The outline is done. Next, we fill and sharpen once the swelling is down and whatever ink that will has bled out.
As I promised:

grandpa why are there pies and cherries on your arm?
I like it!

I don't think any video game tattoo is a good idea
|
I probably would have gone with Blinky, but Inky would be my second choice.

1. Sounds like an awesome tattoo.

Sounds cute - I still can't believe my Mum got 13 tattoos and didn't tell me. I'm convinced her to get an SC tattoo for a laugh. She agreed O.o

This is so awesome. And nerdy. But mostly awesome. Depending on what you look like.

PacMan isn't your average everyday cartoon character, he was the one who inspired the biker to go pop a bunch of pills.

Stay true to your roots; I like it. Be sure to post a pic once you've got it colored. This is way better than any lame barbed wire tattoo.
|
Yea it didn't cross my mind if it was going to be pixelated either but damn thats sweet. Plz post pics after color in!

I feel like Pac Man's one of the only games timeless enough to have as a tattoo. Well done.

^^Yeah, that and pong. Although imo pong wouldn't make a very good tattoo.

Dotted line down your spine, the scores on your shoulder blades, one paddle on each side, and the little ball somewhere random.
Edit: That or Space invaders on your wrist(Badass, but it's be tough to get a job and look professional). Just play a game a little bit, then pause. Put the ship dead center on your wrist shooting up, and the half destroyed barriers a little bit up your arm. Maybe an Invader or two at about mid forearm.

Instead you ink the back of your elbows as paddles...gg.

Looks great. I'm sure it'll be fantastic with colours.

Honnestly it's weird to see a Pacman tatoo like that, but the idea is original, so it's not bad!
