Description Well well :3
I had this is mind the whole weekend, until my bf told me "draw it then" xD
This is an inspired Tolkien tattoo, not to all of his works of course, just to the saga that includes The Silmarillion, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
In the digital paint I put Smaug (The Hobbit) as reperesented on Thorin's map, the three Silmaril (The Silmarillion), and the writings on the One Ring (The Lord of the Rings); plus, in the end, I added the singnature of the great J.R.R.Tolkien :3
One day I'll totally tattoo this on myself, at least when I'll have money to do so xD

Hey there! I'd just like to show you that tattoo I recently got of your design. I fell in love with it immediately but I didn't have deviantart to request to use it but I noticed that you said it was free to use in the comments as long as the design wasn't altered. The tattoo is on my account now, but it will not let me post a link

Oh my gosh ! I totally love it ! I want to make a tattoo about the Tolkien's universe since a long time and this design is absolutely brilliant to have combined its 3 major works !
Can I have your permission to use it if one day i'll have the money and the courage to do it ? If I use it, I will not change the design because it's already perfect <3

I'm thinking of getting this too, what does the elvish say?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Orikunie In reply to Lizluck84 [2014-10-08 19:09:11 +0000 UTC]

It's not properly elvish, is the language of mordor, and it's the famous citation that starts with "One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them"

I was inspired by your drawing but wanted a slightly different dragon design and layout for myself, but I did use your image as a layout and I will be giving you credit for it also

Beautiful indeed!! Happy you liked it! A bit disappointed about the change in the dragon though (mine was the original drawed from J.R.R.Tolkien, so I think it would fit better in that tattoo which has represented all original drawings from him...)

totally considering this for my first tattoo, but if it's alright, i'm thinking of replacing the Silmaril with icons for the shire, erebor, and mordor? if that's alright.

Well...I gave the permission to freely tattoo this work to anyone, but I'd like you not to change the design of it ^^"
I know you can do however as you please, but if you ask for my opinion I'll say don't, please.
Sorry

Just a thing...not to spoil it, of course, but...is it my impression, or your tattooer doesn't have a steady hand? I can see many things a bit off in that tattoo, like the center with Smaug, it is in fact a bit blurred, the three Silmaril are not really 'geometric', even the runes in the dark language are clearly from an unsteady hand...why is that, if I may ask? Was it difficult to reproduce? Cause I don't think it has many details...

Do I have your permission to use this idea as a tattoo? I wanted the one ring quote in a circle with Tolkiens symbol in the middle then I saw this on Pinterest and it was love at first sight!! I'd be more than happy to put pics up if you give me your lovely permission!

I think every in the Tolkien-verse needs this tattooed on them somewhere. This is the most amazing, simple, straightforward, complete Tolkien related tattoo that I've ever seen.
Would you mind if I got this done someday? It's just so ... perfect!

Sweet! Now I just have to figure out where to put it. I think my forehead would be an appropriate place to display this beauty.
A location has always been my biggest issue haha I need to get it made into a bunch of temporary tattoos so I can test lo-cals

Orikunie In reply to xdeathbybananax [2013-05-23 06:18:59 +0000 UTC]

Oh uhm maybe the forehead is a bit too exposed xD
Even because you need a bit of space to do it, since the details of the writings are pretty small. If I'll ever do it, I'll do it on my back, maybe on my shoulder blade or between them.

I was actually discussing this with a friend of mine since she's looking for a place to get her Triforce tattoo. I was considering getting it on my ribs. An easy place to cover, but still close to my heart. It's all bone and thin skin though, so I'll have to see how that'd be. I have a pretty high tolerance for pain, but I'm not sure I could put up with it for hours to get it done haha

TheLastUnicorn1985 [2013-05-18 02:13:30 +0000 UTC]

this is an incredible design! I have been looking for a good Tolkien tattoo to represent all of his works, and you have inspired me greatly with this piece! Would you mind if I used the idea of having the chant as a circle around other images? I would also like to use the Smaug in the center. I would certainly credit you!
