Two, I think. Four on one arm would be too much. Maybe three.

I like the design, but I would go for hiroglyphs (or however you spell that word).

I wanted to go for hieroglyphics originally. My own cartouche even.
But the problem is in lettering, pronunciation, and translation.
Personally I'd hate to use hieroglyphics that were backed by the English language.
That just wouldn't be legitimate enough for me. Not even if it was my name.
And nobody is really speaking Coptic anymore, or actively using hieroglyphics enough for me to trust them.
I don't want somebodies 'interpretation' on what they might mean.
I figure deities are fairly safe.
main candidates are:
Seth
Horus
Anubis
others being considered are:
Isis
Thoth
Ammit

Fair enough, am just saying what I, personally, would go for.
Am sure your new tattoo will be really cool. I take it this isn't ya first tattoo?

Hehe, it'sd just cause Ed was saying that would be a bitch, if he were to get that. He says black is more painful in his opinion, and that the fleshy bits are the worse areas to have a tattoo.

That 3 separate tattoos? or one tattoo with all those elements combined?
Combined I think it could look pretty good.
The ivy could make it work anywhere.
Unless I'm envisioning it wrong.
may have to talk chewi into getting himself done first.

I must be interpreting that wrong because I can't make much sense of it. The braces don't match up and those quotes everywhere are just weird. I'm not even sure what language it is. Maybe Perl. Or maybe this is just made up shit to make me look like an idiot.

Okay I looked it up because it was annoying me. I found it
here, among other places. It's C and it doesn't do anything exciting, just prints "Hello, World!" It just shows how the rules can be abused to write code that works even though it looks like gibberish. It was written in 1984 and my current compiler won't accept it, which isn't very surprising.
Don't do that again, you might break my brain.
