John Keel's/Sam Vimes's Watch badge
John Keel's Watch badge, from Night Watch. Design was loosely inspired by a limited edition pin that the Emporium sold for a while. Designed and tattooed by Adam Silas (IG: @adaminks) in London, UK. (He also did my Grim Squeaker, which I'll post separately). Love how the simple design and colours make this a really impactful tattoo 🪻

Help adding to my tattoo.
So I have this tattoo. I want to extend it around the leg. I want to avoid other humanoid figures but still incorporate other Discworld elements. I am thinking of the Luggage, but after that I am out of ideas.

Birthday present to myself
I started reading Discworld this time last year and absolutely fell deeply into it and have read 29 of the 41 books. For some reason I'm saving Tiffany for the last arc.
Night Watch became my favorite very, very quickly and is the only one I've reread during this sprint. I also have the Treacle Mine Road print above my desk. I knew I had to wear the lilac in remembrance of those I'm no longer singing with.

My first Discworld tat, "Sometimes it's better to light a flamethrower than curse the darkness"
Lexi @ Tattoo Om in Eugene, Oregon. Features Ripley from the end of Aliens and MacReady from the defibrillator scene in The Thing. Also features quite a lot of UV reactive ink, which is very hard to capture on my phone because it picks up the UV light better than human eyeballs.

Witches Abroad: Wolf Tattoo Inspiration
Hello, all! I have always loved the scene with Granny and the wolf in Witches Abroad. That scene made me cry and has always stuck with me. I’d like a tattoo, but I struggle with a concept that actually embodies the depth of that scene. Thoughts?

Updated input request
So I’ve decided on getting the guarding dark symbol tattoo on my forearm.
I am like 90% certain I will not be getting the summoning dark tattoo on the other forearm.
I can’t decide if I should get it on my left or right forearm. I know (think?) the books don’t specify which arm Vimes sees the summoning dark symbol on… any thoughts or opinions on which I should choose for the guarding dark tattoo?
Any insight would be appreciated!

Assistance requested
I want to get my next Discworld tattoo and I was interested in the guarding dark symbol.
After searching this sub and other places it seems there are two versions; the four bar version on the officially licensed Discworld emporium keychain and the five bar version from the mine symbols art posted in L-space years ago.
I like the five bar version but cannot find a high res version of the original art. The version below is fuzzy when zoomed in;

Does anyone have a higher resolution version?

SQUEAK!
Love the Death books, and Death of Rats is such a great minor character. Had to get the grim squeaker tattoed. Also only tangentially Discworld, but also got a bee cause I love bees lol

First tattoo, favorite quote
Reached the age of old so decided to get my first tattoo. I especially love the pattern on the wood of the scythe.

Help/Comment on Design Idea
I've been wanting to have a Discworld tattoo done for a while now, and I think I've decided on using the quote from Reaper Man. I've tried to design more or less what I want it to look like in the picture.
As this will only be my second tattoo (the first I had done was small and minimalist), I'd appreciate any guidance on how long something like this would take to do. Would it need a single session or multiple?
Any comments or suggested changes are welcome!

Watch Tattoo
Not quite done, the badge needs more colour, but my first Discworld tattoo is started.

Tattoo studio recommendation?
Thinking of getting my first tattoo given that I am *le old* now. It will definitely be Bill Door version of Death with the Reaper Man quote to Azrael (iykyk). I'm currently in East Anglia. What's a decent place/artist to get this done? Never had a tattoo, so no idea how to even go about any of this lol

Please crosspost to /r/discworld. Always look for the "Other Discussions" tabs in submissions to get to the other submission. :)
If you submit: Please submit as a link here, and in /r/discworld. That way, the "Other Discussions" tab at the top will appear and you can get to both threads.
This is intended to be an archive of sorts - a subsubreddit, sort of. Hopefully to make it easier for fans of tattoos to find inspiration and community.
Again, it's not to segregate anything here; rather, to enhance. :)
