Grogs 0 #3 June 6, 2001 You're talking about the mythological Icarus who built flying wings, but flew too high and died when the wings melted? I'd think you can get some drawings of it on some websites about greek mythology.My only tattoo is of a guy swooping a canopy with my canopy colors. It looks something like this: http://personal.picusnet.com/grogs/canopy.jpg Although the tattoo artist actually did a much better job with it than my drawing since he put in lots of nice shading and such.

Grogs 0 #4 June 6, 2001 Hmm. Actually I found one. It's at http://www.fusso.com/icarus/nest.htm Might not be what you're looking for, but maybe it'll give you something to work with. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pyke 0 #6 June 6, 2001 Dan, you can find heaps of pics of Icarus in art books during the renaissance period by some of the (lesser known) greats.Also, I know you would get it mistaken all the time for the band, but (and I am guessing here/as well as showing my age) I think Led Zepplin has a great pic of Icarus on an album cover that would look great as a tatt.Good luck, I am still looking for my next one, but may have my idea already thanks to a friend of mine.Kia Kaha,PykeNZPF A - 2584 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where can I get it, and where can I exchange it for the other thing?" -Dennis MillerAre you sure you want a tattoo on your body of a character who suffered the first total mal in the history of the world???What about a tattoo of his Dad, Daedalus? I think he did the same thing (so you could use the same tattoo), but landed safely!!Speed Racer"De plaene!! De plaene!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
