One of my favorite things of GoW 4 and 5 is tattoos.

GoW is one of the few games in which almost all characters have tattoos, BIG ones and in very visible places. The fact that the good guys (specially Atreus and Kratos being the protagonists) get to have badass looking tattoos is a huge step for destroying the stereotype of “tattoos = delinquent/bad”.

In most games the only characters having tattoos are usually the bad guys o simply just men.

But specially in GoW Ragnarök we get to see women having huge badass tatts (even facial ones on Angrboda). I absolutely love this. I’m a woman with several big tattoos (as you know I’ve Atreus neck runes tattoed) and I get a lot of comments saying “tattoos make women less feminine”. Seeing Sif being buffed, tattooed AND being so damn pretty and feminine proved that wrong! I just love it.

It was about damn time to normalize women being covered in tattoos and still being super feminine and cute!

(Ps: Thrud isn’t very feminine tbh but I dont care! She’s rocking those sleeves tatts I love her)

My new tattoo that I got before leaving my hometown. Old Icelandic (and Norway) poems about Týr and his rune Tiwaz that I condensed into those lines.

"Týr er einhendr áss oc ulfs Leinart oc hofa hilmir. Týr er Baldurs broðir, leidestjerna, wic han aldri."

Maybe some of you lovely peeps from Finland/Helsinki can help me with this one :3?

I'll be travelling to Helsinki twice this year and the second time (for käärijä's Böle concert) I will be arriving at 9 am friday and only be allowed into my hotel room at 3 so my plan is to get a tattoo in the mean time.

Do you guys have any recommendations for good tattoo studios/artists in or around Helsinki I could visit :3? I am especially interested in tattoo artists who:

Are queer friendly (maybe even queer themselves)

Are okay with me speaking english (since my finnish is nonexistent)

Feel free to send me your recommendations and their socials so I can stalk them >:3 xD

Otherwise I hope to see some of you in Helsinki either for the Joker Out show next month (I'll be attending the second/sunday show) or the Käärijä Böle gig in may :3

#tattoo artist recommendations #now I have the time I want a memory of the amazing spring gigs (this one ends the little nordic tour I'll be doing #with jo twice in march blind channel in april and then käärijä in may )#and also a memory from helsinki/finland #I have no clue what to get tattooed yet #so I was hoping to find a tattoo artist with some cute or cool looking flash/want to dos #but every artist you can think of is welcome #as long as they are queer friendly #given I myself am very queer :'D #and i'd like to be comfortable around the artist #micahs foolery
