Tattoos of mythological and fantastic beings

What do these tattoos consist of?

Whether you have some beliefs or others or you like a specific god or an allegory, you can always tattoo it and keep it always present. Because tattoos of mythological and fantastic beings give a lot of play.

Recall that an allegory is a literary figure or artistic theme, which seeks to represent an idea using human forms, animals, and / or everyday objects

  • As for gods there are Romans and Greeks (for example Zeus or Jupiter) within this category since we are talking about mythology and what most people tattoo themselves. In some cases they are figures taken from works of art and sculptures and in others, we design them directly for you. there is also the Christian God or Jesus Christ or the different virgins. And, of course, the different depictions of the devil.
  • The meanings They are the originals of each god or allegory or the ones you want to give them, that is why you tattoo it, right?
  • As for fantastic beings They can be mermaids, dragons, sphinxes, minotaurs, elves, gargoyles, nymphs, unicorns, phoenixes and many, many more.
  • They are ideal for getting them big, whether on your arm, all over your back, or on your leg or chest.

The good thing about this type of tattoo is that they can be highly personalized and give you something very original if you put your mind to it. You can mix different elements or invent something new by uniting different divinities or qualities.
