Finding designs for proper tattoo for men is not that difficult.
Designs can be downloaded, and artists can be commissioned for a
customized creation. You may simply ask the tattoo artist to carve the
name of your favorite person at the moment, your favorite quote, a
symbol, letters, numbers, flowers, animals, an image, or whatever suits
your fancy. Or you can take inspiration from these famous celebrities.
Take your pick.
10.Adam Levine
Adam Levine often shows off his many tattoos in Maroon 5 music
videos. Most of his tattoo design choices are very personal such as the
“Los Angeles” (the city where he was born), and the paw print in honor
of Frankie, his Golden Retriever. Some of his tattoos are related to his
Grammy-winning band, Maroon 5. The numbers, “222” was the number of the
studio where the band recorded for the first time, while the “X” on his
bicep represents the band’s 10th year anniversary. Levine also has a
dove and cherry blossoms design that he had shortly after the tragic
events of 9/11.
9. Johnny Depp
The brilliant character actor and leading man, Johnny Depp had his
share of pitfalls in this career and his personal life as well. When he
was in a very public relationship with “Edwards Scissorhands” co-star,
Winona Ryder, he added, “Winona Forever” to his already cool collection.
That relationship did not last forever. Depp’s solution? The tattoo on
his upper right arm now reads, “Wino Forever.”
8. Mark Wahlberg
Actor and producer (and once upon a time rap artist) Mark Wahlberg
has chosen Sylvester with Tweety in his mouth, a rosary, his initials,
his parents initials, and his birthdate to be carved permanently on his
skin. But the most striking of his tattoos is Bob Marley’s immortal
visage, and under it, “One Love.”
7. AXL Rose
AXL Rose, the Guns N’Roses front man rocked hard in his heyday and
wore his tattoos proudly. One of the most famous marks on his skin is
the “Victory or Death” tattoo. Rose has both the words and the emblem on
his left arm. “Victory or Death” is the famous motto of US Army’s 32nd
Armored Regiment.
6. Michael Scofield
Michael
Scofield’s elaborate tattoo turned out to be more than the blueprints
of Fox River Penitentiary. It was also a step-by-step plan for an escape
to Panama and a detailed guide towards a new life for him and his
brother. Scofield is a fictional character, the lead in the television
series “Prison Break” that became a craze when it was on air. The actor
who had his body painted, Wentworth Miller, did not get actual tattoos.
He just had to endure 5 hours of prep. But that didn’t make the designs
less impressive.
5. Marshall Bruce Mathers III
Emimen
has a number of words, numbers, and figures tattooed on his person.
Some of his tattoos are a bit troubling – “Slit Me,” “Ronnie RIP,” and
“Rot in Pieces” with the open grave. Others are rather straightforward –
the “D” for Detroit, where Mathers was born, “Hailie Jade,” the name of
his daughter, and “Slim Shady,” his nickname, and “Eminem.” The rap
artist is quite public with the meaning of each one of his tattoos, but
the Gothic bracelet that he is wearing seems to have been done in a fit
of drunkenness because he does not know what it means.
4. Jack Bauer
Kiefer
Sutherland, more popularly known in some circles as “Jack Bauer,” for
his highly commendable portrayal of the anti-hero in the TV Series, “24”
had a tattoo done for every great moment of his life. Sutherland has
the Celtic crest of his clan carved onto his flesh. His other tattoos
are Chinese character for strength, a very elaborate image of the Lady
of Guadalupe, a barbed wire around his arm, and the Icelandic runes on
his forearm reads :I trust you to kill me” in English.
3. Brad Pitt
Tattoos
for some people are marks that signify a memory, an emotion. It could
also be a representation of the connection between people. Brad’s most
infamous tattoo, those lines on his back, turns out to be Angelina
Jolie’s permanent doodling on Pitt’s skin.
2. Colin Farrell
Colin
Farrell’s right shoulder tattoo had seen its share in the limelight.
This abstract tribal design of a face and suggestions of animal figures
were made in Tahiti. He has a “Carpe Diem” (Seize the Day) tattoo on his
forearm. The other half of this set is now a cross. Originally it read,
“…with my girl.” On his wrist, “I Love (horizontally oriented) No
Matter” (vertically oriented) in Sanskrit is now covered in Arabic.
1. David Beckam
David Beckam is a great athlete and a huge fan of body art,
evidently. He has a number of names and figures on his neck and torso,
but the ones on his arms and forearms get the most attention. Most of
the ones on his upper limbs are connected to his wife and their
marriage. “Victoria” is spelled in Hindi, “I love and cherish” in Latin,
and ten roses forming a ring to commemorate his 10th wedding
anniversary. And on his forearm he declares, “Let them hate as long as
they fear.”
