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!

# 4 Giger was the artist who designed alien. Hes probably one of my favorite artists of all time. I love this sleeve, im jealous.

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.

amazing work seriously!

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 THE MOST AMAZING DETAILED WORK IV EVER SEEN

THAT TATTOO ARTIST IS AMAZING
Dennis on March 28, 2008 at 4:55 pm said:

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!

Joshmeshuggah on March 28, 2008 at 5:34 pm said:

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.
Joshmeshuggah on March 28, 2008 at 5:35 pm said:

Fucking wow… Yeah thats about all I can think to say..
demoiselle on March 28, 2008 at 6:42 pm said:

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!
herekittykitty on March 28, 2008 at 7:08 pm said:

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!
MoonChild on March 28, 2008 at 8:14 pm said:

demoiselle, that’s exacty how I feel.
jes on March 28, 2008 at 8:54 pm said:

Mr Funk on March 28, 2008 at 9:15 pm said:

Damn, that’s probably the coolest tattoo I’ve ever seen. Jealous as hell.
Xenobiologista on March 28, 2008 at 10:34 pm said:

#8: Just off the cuff I’m going to guess it’s one of the “Li” series.

goomy on March 29, 2008 at 10:59 am said:

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.

Tiix on April 3, 2008 at 1:03 pm said:

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 🙂
