these are the 2 ideas i've been playing around with for my next tattoo ... it'll probably end up being a variation on the stylized sun top left ... the other looks cool but is a bit geeky (it's a rotary encoder)

i''ll stick a picture of my existing tattoo up later ... basically i like 1 colour and fairly geometric and/or stylized stuff ... i think it would go on my shoulder ... maybe i'll draw on in pen and post that too to demonstrate where

any comments or redesigns gratefully accepted! wotcher reckon?

i like the one you have, I also like the top drawing that looks like the sun.

Sounds like a cool idea for a tattoo!

Hope you don't mind, I did a little sketch of a stylized sun. It's probably not the style you desire, but hopefully it can provide you with something to think about when you get around to drawing up your final design:

cheers dude, one of the issues in my mind was whether the sun has wavy flames or straight flames ... good to see someone else's ideas

your sun reminds me of http://www.uniquevents.com/categorie...he_sun_jpg.jpg

Hmm I think your sun would look so much cooler if you made the beams look more like flames!

Personally, I's stick to celtic, otherwise it could end up looking a bit messy? Some nice clip art here to inspire you (maybe).
