RE: Lucas and his tattoos - Margaret - 09-12-2009 11:15 AM Thank you, kirmostar for finding out all that information about the tattoos: quite fascinating stuff. Brilliant work. ..And JHyde: you have gotto be kidding? (About the shoe heel and urine tattoo ink!!) RE: Lucas and his tattoos - JHyde - 09-12-2009 12:25 PM I'm really not. I'm been reading some stuff about the Russian mafia for a piece I'm working on and came across that frightening tidbit of information, RE: Lucas and his tattoos - kirmostar - 09-12-2009 03:19 PM Well we know that RA likes to pay attention to detail and is big on accuracy but I doubt he would let anyone cover him in urine and powdered shoe heel!!! ![]() RE: Lucas and his tattoos - kirmostar - 11-12-2009 12:15 PM OK I'm just about admitting defeat on the right wrist letters. I'm pretty sure it's the Russian characters for D, L and X but that means absolutely nothing in any language unless you translate into Roman Numerals and you get 560 - which also means nothing!! (Bangs head against workstation in frustration) Anyone have any other ideas?

Sorry, I'm not helping ![]() LNF ![]() RE: Lucas and his tattoos - JHyde - 12-12-2009 12:30 PM I think we should try and contact the makeup artist who does them. They're most likely to know! Although whether they'd know or care about the meaning, I'm not sure. RE: Lucas and his tattoos - kirmostar - 12-12-2009 12:44 PM Quote:Ask the man himself?? Put me in room with RA I wouldn't want to appear like some sort of tattoo geek, I'd probably take a boiler suit with me and chance my luck.......... ![]() RE: Lucas and his tattoos - Snowball - 12-12-2009 04:31 PM I emailed a copy of the picture to my friend whose husband is learning Russian. He didn't know what it was but said this: "Looking at the picture I have assumed that the letters are ВЯХ although it is difficult to be sure on the first letter as it has an leading link on the lower left which В does not normally have. The letters are from the Russian printed script and not the written script. As it ends with an Х it has to be a masculine noun but not one that I can find in the dictionary. It could be an abbreviation but again it is not a common one." I've tried running ВЯХ through google, and although it comes up in sentances I can't get it to work in an online translator. RE: Lucas and his tattoos - JHyde - 12-12-2009 04:34 PM Thanks snowball! A noble second post on the forum, congrats ![]() RE: Lucas and his tattoos - LucasNorthFan - 12-12-2009 09:28 PM (12-12-2009 04:31 PM)Snowball Wrote: I emailed a copy of the picture to my friend whose husband is learning Russian. He didn't know what it was but said this: Thank you Snowball and your husband's friend. I think the leading link he sees it's just the ink or whatever material they use to draw the tattoos, that 'moved' downwards (couldn't find the proper word in the dictionary ![]() A little bit OT: Kirmostar, I know if you ever were in a room with RA the last thing you would be doing is talking about tattoos. Now, inspecting them....is another matter ![]() LNF ![]() |
