Are you trying to get a great Greek warrior tattoo but can't seem to find the right design? Not even sure which warrior you want the tattoo to mimic? One of the hardest things about getting the right tattoo is feeling completely confident in your choice of design. Greek tattoos are very dynamic and expressive so the last thing you want to happen is to be disappointed in the end result.Greek warrior tattoos are a symbol of strength, courage, endurance, and nobility. Your design should express these very same characteristics that exist in yourself. It should show all of us who see it the fight that you are undertaking or have already made in your life, and the passion that was used to achieve the outcome. These are some fascinating Greek warriors who make stunning tattoo designs.
Bellerophon
Bellerophon was the son of either Poseidon or King Glaucus and was a very handsome man. He was known as the hero and slayer of monsters. He became famous by killing the Chimera, the fire breathing half-man half-beast. He did this with the help of Pegasus, his famous winged horse. Bellerophon mounted a large block of lead to the end of his spear. Mounted atop Pegasus, he flew head-on towards the Chimera, holding out the spear as far as he could. He lodged the block of lead inside the Chimera's throat, suffocating the beast. Tattoos of Bellerophon are spectacular with both his own beauty and that of the beautiful Pegasus. What a way to express your courage and strength in the face of adversity.
Hercules
The famous Hercules was most known for his incredible strength. He was a great champion and warrior who was also known for destroying many dangerous monsters. His most notable battle was against Lernaean Hydra, the ancient serpent-like water beast that had 9 heads and poisonous breath so potent that even her tracks were deadly. Greek warrior tattoos centered around Hercules express strength, courage, and incredible endurance (Hercules killed numerous monsters). Using Hercules in your design will express your own individual endurance against adversities that have occurred in your life.
