Hero tattoo designs.

In this free tattoo design, the artist got his inspiration from the movie 'Hero'. It is a magnificent, awe-inspiring film. If you have not yet placed your eyes on this masterpiece of Chinese cinema then I cannot recommend this film highly enough. The man with the sword in this tattoo shows a solemn and stirring spirit.

Lion tattoo designs.

In my knowledge, male lions are always sleeping and look lazy all the time. Not this one in the tattoo, it is scary. Anyone sees the tail? It is a snake!

Phoenix tattoo designs.

This free tattoo design is phoenix, which is a mythical bird that dies in flames and is reborn from the ashes. In China, the phoenix is called Fenghuang, and is the second most-respected legendary creature (second to the dragon), mostly used to represent the empress. The phoenix is the leader of birds. In Japan, the phoenix is called hō-ō(kanji) or fushichō (Immortal Bird).
It is a little bit weird to get a phoenix tattoo on a man though.
