Capt starman Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hi I'm new to the forum but been a big fan since I was a teen when I bought the album 2112. Been hooked ever since then. I recently seen on the internet of a reverse starman tattoo on the shoulder of a women. I never seen an image like this. What are your views and what are the differences between the two of them. The only difference was his right and left hand and he's facing the opposite direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielmclark Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Sounds like the artist screwed up or was working from a mirror of the image or something. I'm not aware of any symbolism in it being backward, but someone might demonstrate otherwise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt starman Posted January 15, 2012 Author Share Posted January 15, 2012 I did save the picture but not sure how to post it up. I was pondering getting one and looking for ideas and just came across it. I always liked the whole " Man against the masses" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Territorial_Game Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Thought this thread was going to have a picture of starman's wang. Moving on now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 The only time I remeber it being reversed was when Neil had 2 kick drums, one starman was the correct way & the other reversed so they where both "facing" him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invisible To Telescopic Eye Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Actually, the reverse Starman means you hate rush....Don't get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMCXII Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Just make sure the shading isn't reversed like half the starman images I see on shirts etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt starman Posted January 17, 2012 Author Share Posted January 17, 2012 Wish I could post it also. The old copy and paste seems not to work in this application. I will have to investigate it a little more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt starman Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 My tattoo guy says maybe she ok it because she was looking at it through a mirror. http://i.imgur.com/L7hnM.jpg Besides it being reversed I like the way it came out.

Jomboni Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Aside from it being reversed that's the best looking starman tattoo I've seen, and I may actually print it out and take it whenever I work up the nerve to get mine. Maybe the actual photo is flipped? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clem Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Reverse is ok. As long as it's not upside down. That would be satanic. (NOTE: this was meant to be a joke) Clem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnus 2112 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Other than being backwards, that is a kickass tattoo. When you said Reverse tattoo I thought we were going to see it from the front side. I was afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rushchick10 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I know her and honestly it never dawned on me that it was reversed. She has a portrait of Geddy on the other shoulder. :D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
