Thanks for the awesome feedback guys. It was done by a young tattoo artist from devil's Ink in Melbourne called Terry James, he did a magnificent job at replicating the design and of course the meaning behind the design Smile

Are you going to add more to the background (the pills n' such? Or leave it as is? Or do a whole leg piece?

Invisible Monsters is an inanimate book and, as such, is indifferent to your love.

What if a gal got an Invisible Monsters tattoo just above her freshly shaved ladyparts and the spot where her jaw is blown off is the you-know? Too much?

I guess they could get a Predator one like that too, but that would be scary.

I would be turned on, terrified and a little disappointed.
Turned on because of my love for Chuck
terrified because, well, something about that image just doesn't seem right.
and disappointed because cover art isn't the best representation of a book

what is the best representation? a picture from the inside of the book, like you have? or a t-shirt someone designed? i don't see the difference really. they're both someone else's visual interpretation of the text. it's just the cover art is going to be the most popular thing to get, along with quotes. but you're not going to get the whole text quoted all over your body. or maybe someone should. just to show how much they LOVE Chuck!!!

...take a deep breath, and exhale. It's my personal opinion that the illusion is just over used. I will happily admit that my ass fish doesn't represent the book very well, i'm ok with this.
Sorry to cause the negativity and what not, that's just my personal opinion.

You hardly caused any negativity. Matt is just spazzing out on both tattoo threads. It's kind of weird, but don't take it personally.

oh i dont take it personally, i dont take much of what happens on the internet personally. I am just trying to kill this whole thing know before it explodes even further and takes away from the original meaning behind the thread. I dont have any urge to battle it out between some random stranger on the internet. But that was a good thread jump though.

i get spazzy sometimes.

look, i'm just over seeing the same post every time someone posts a picture of their illusion lady tat. if you don't like it, and you think it's over done--which, yeah, it probably is, but so is liking Palahniuk and you're not going to stop doing that because everyone else is, are you?--then don't post. it's just lame and elitist really.

why is there two threads anyway?

Do you have to mention how OVER Palahniuk you are all the time? it's just lame and elitist really.

The two thread this is kind of odd. Dennis posted one and Ms. Colon posted the original. im not trying to sound elitist im sorry. And shit i wish more people liked Palahniuk, i got in a drunken fight few weeks back because someone called chuck a hack.

You know I adore you, but you do trample over people if they like Chuck's latest books. I just wanted to point out that you have a tic like the one that you accused Norhm (sp?) of having!

ANYWAY, there are two threads because one was posted as a news piece.I love this design so much. Not enough to get a tattoo, though! (Well, to be fair, I don't want any more tattoos.)

wow. i have a name too, but it's not nearly as meaningful or significant, or even as nice as that. i had no idea the islamic god even had 99 different names. interesting.

Yes, I'm a deep one. Wink

That is it, but it's more stylized so the center looks more like an arrow. I found it in a book that said it was stylized like that in art to add a depth of meaning. Truth shoots straight kind of thing. I do love my tattoo.
