| TMBG Tattoo Sleeve |
Question:
can guys help me out on this. I'm going to start a TMBG
tribute tattoo half-sleeve on my forearm if I can come up with some
ideas that don't make it look like a hotchpot of unrelated things.
I'm looking for original ideas on interpretations of song lyrics or
themes, not direct transplants from album artwork, etc. (Although, I
was thinking of the ship in a bottle from the "Then" cover.) Also, as
little wording as possible, and no mentions of the band name, etc. I
want it to be a thing only fans will pick up on.
A good example or the sort of ideas I'm looking for is the one I have
for the centerpiece, that will take up a pretty good amount of space.
It's a mighty zombie with two banners.
I hope you guys are willing and able to help me out with some ideas
for this thing.

-is there something wrong with a tattoo of unrelated things?
