That is absolutely amazing! The artist did a fabulous job.
amazing!
Goddamn, that is some incredible work.
Didn’t find any close up, but hardcore (techno) artist Manu le Malin, and Rick Healy ( 25 ta life ) have beautiful Giger tattoos too ! Google ‘em, maybe you’ll find some pics!
*shivers* reminds me of Alien,Species..and that surreal ass artwork of Geiger ….amazing sleeve
the inside of his arm look soo sick !
# 4 Giger was the artist who designed alien. Hes probably one of my favorite artists of all time. I love this sleeve, im jealous.
http://www.hrgiger.com/ check him out.
Is this a direct interpretation of a Giger work? If so, which one? Looks great; I’d like to see it in more natural light to see just how the shading looks.
damn, thats nice!
amazing work seriously!
applauds to the artist and lucky you to the owner of such a nice piece
Pretty damn hot. Makes me think that Metroid (say SNES era) was very Giger-like. I wonder if the same look could be achieved but with a Metroid theme… I’d get that, got a few free members 😉
This is why I wait to get tattoos, Its always worth it in the end.
go team Dylan Thomas quote! Also, great art work.
I like this a lot.
Wow. That’s nice, I always love seeing Giger interpreted by a good artist.
THIS IS THE MOST AMAZING DETAILED WORK IV EVER SEEN
THAT TATTOO ARTIST IS AMAZING
Looks amazing! The only thing that keeps me from getting something intricate ala Gigeresque tattoos is that I fear they will age poorly. I could be wrong though, I’d love to hear from people with this style of tattoo who have had it for 10 years or so. I love Japanese and Blackwork too, so that is probably the direction I’m heading with my own tattoos.
Anyways, awesome tattoo!
beautiful. I like the part wih “and death shall have no ddominion”.
I’ve always thought about getting a sleeve by H.R. Giger. I love his art work. whoever inked this guy up is obviously talented.
oops, i mean getting a sleeve of H.R. Giger ART WORK that is. hah.
absolutely gorgeous!
I love Giger, this beautiful.
Fucking wow… Yeah thats about all I can think to say..
I have always wanted to get a tattoo based on Giger’s art.
But I’ve never felt any I had seen based on his work did the art any justice, until now.
Wow!
Holy Fucking Shit!
And on his shoulder the lovely face of “Li”…
If this tattoo doesn’t make any Giger fan come in their pants then nothing will!
demoiselle, that’s exacty how I feel.
Hot DAMN. ‘Nuff said.
Damn, that’s probably the coolest tattoo I’ve ever seen. Jealous as hell.
#8: Just off the cuff I’m going to guess it’s one of the “Li” series.
i wish my back looked that good…..damn
This is amazing!
im getting something of hr giger too..
take care!
i really love it !
That is an intensely brilliant piece of work.
That is the dogs!!
that’s amazing.. and I’ve just seen Kondom des Grauens
lol
Wow. !
This is absolutely stunning. It all flows so well it almost feels like it was done in one sitting (well, it could have been, I don’t know :P). The shading is amazing, too.
Amazing tattoo. And a great guy too!
intense!!!!
im in love
This has me missing a missing iamer, anyone heard from Boris Acker?
wow, thats soo good. i want!
I, like #17, too would like to know how well these age. That looks amazing right now!
I think I’m in love! Gorgeous ink,
Wow! Simply amazing
😐 zomg
wicked.
I wondered if someone will ever notice Gigers work like tatooing it on itself. And it did happen. I’m also a big fan of Giger’s sculptures and art works 🙂
Love this tatoo 🙂
I like!!it`s nice
amazing tattoo..
cool,first class.p
Very impressive Gigger’s styled tattoo… Want Some….
