Tattoo - Not Really Centurion Related

[RFortuna]

Not totally Buick related, but all of you can probably see what inspired the design of my tattoo. Invicta means invincible, unbeatable, or undefeatable in latin. Fortuna is my last name, and in latin it means lucky, fortunate, great fortune, or vast wealth. The Roman Centurion helmet is facing forward, and was inspired by the hood ornament on my cars. The tattoo to me basically means "You're only truly defeated when you stop trying", or as long as I'm soldiering forward, I'm not defeated. The tie in to the Buicks was just an added bonus, and an inside thing for me. The other arm has two R's facing each other. They stand for Randy and Ronnie. We've been together 18 years. The font is from the stylized R on a 59 Rambler hubcap. Should have probably used a Riviera R, but I like the Rambler font. Thought some of you may get a kick out of it. Hope everyone had a great Christmas.

When you were new to this forum I thought your name Fortuna was spot on since you have such a nice collection of automobiles.
It’s a cool tattoo, especially with the symbolism you have put in it.

Tomorrow the Centurion Calendar gets up on the wall!
Happy New Year guys :beers:

Thanks Guys! Keith that pendant is AWESOME! Youre right about making sure a tattoo is exactly what you want. It would suck to get one and have regrets. Happy New Year!!

You could tattoo an image of your car on your back. Unfortunately you'd need a really good friend because our cars are too long to fit. You could have the front end of the car with a little note:

Continued on next gearhead.:D
