(Unsure if this would be classed as a paper prop,or more off-topic - please move as appropriate).

Hey peeps - as I now work in a tattoo studio (not tattooing - design, techy side), I was wondering if there is any kind of repositary of movie tattoo designs, eg Cape Fear (Max Cady), Dusk Till Dawn (Seth Gecko), and any and all others?

Thought they'd make a great display for the wall, with stills (and maybe creep in a few prop pieces too ;) ).

Any help, chaps?

There is always 'The Tattooist' for reference, its a good film, shows how they printed up the tattoos, designs etc...in the extras. Worth a look ;-)
 
I suppose it'd be part of 'costume', really.

We could start one - List films where tatoos are featured. Just don't include Biker films as people are already getting into trouble by displaying fake biker tats around real bikers...


Blade - Blade himself.
Pirates Of The Caribbean - Jack Sparrow.
Snatch - Brad Pitt.
Elektra - Tattoo.
Aliens - Hicks, Hudson, Drake, Vasquez... many of them, in fact.
Alien : Resurrection - Ripley.
Memento - Guy Pierce and his many, many, many coverings in various styles.
Showdown In Little Tokyo - Fully suited Yakuza.
The Pillow Book - Ewan MacGreggor gets heavily tatted, I believe.
 
Surprised no one has said Darth Maul yet.
Or the little ones on the left arms of all the death eaters from harry potter
 
Jack Bauer's mexican cartel tattoo, which I hear he ended up having done for real to skip the time in makeup.
