Jason Momoa is famous for his tattoos. And the Jason Momoa tattoos aren\u2019t limited to his fictional characters, either: in real life, the superstar is rocking some really cool ink all over his body.<\/p>\n

Want to learn the scoop about all of his onscreen and offscreen tattoos? Then keeping going to discover our deep, Aquaman-esque dive into the world of Jason Momoa tattoos.<\/p>\n

Khal Drogo<\/h2>\n

Much of the world first discovered Jason Momoa when he played Khal Drogo on the hit TV show Game of Thrones. In addition to his muscled build, the first thing people notice about this character are his tattoos.<\/p>\n

Within the show, the primary purpose of the tattoos were to make Momoa look even meaner and sleeker than he already did, especially when the character was fighting. And this character ended up being very inspirational in the tattoo community: plenty of people have tattoos of phrases and symbols from his onscreen people, the Dothraki!<\/p>\n

Aquaman<\/h2>\n

When we first saw onscreen Aquaman, a few fans were confused. This super-tattooed superhero didn\u2019t look a lot like his comic counterpart.<\/p>\n

There are a few reasons for this, though. First, both director Zack Snyder and Momoa himself wanted Aquaman to represent Polynesian culture, and the extreme amount of body tattoos helped to do so.<\/p>\n

In addition to generally representing this culture, Momoa\u2019s Aquaman tattoos show him to be a fearsome warrior. Some of the tats include spearheads all over his arms that help to highlight a simple fact: this guy is a living weapon!<\/p>\n

Finally, on a practical level, all those Aquaman tattoos help to cover up Momoa\u2019s real tattoos.<\/p>\n

El Diablo?<\/h2>\n

One of the simpler Jason Momoa tattoos is the one on his finger that reads \u201cDiablo.\u201d Don\u2019t worry, though: it\u2019s not as sinister as it sounds.<\/p>\n

Momoa has said that this tattoo honors a friend who passed away. And he shows it off pretty often by flipping off the press!<\/p>\n

Drinking Like a Fish<\/h2>\n

In the DCEU movies, we see that Aquaman loves some hard liquor. It turns out that Momoa does as well.<\/p>\n

Look on his right arm and you can see a tattoo in French that reads \u201cetre toujours ivre.\u201d What\u2019s it mean? \u201cTo be always drunk,\u201d of course.<\/p>\n

Gypsy Pride<\/h2>\n

The right arm is pretty busy for Jason Momoa tattoos. The other side reads \u201cPride of Gypsies.\u201d Why this strange tattoo? It happens to be the name of Momoa\u2019s creator-centric production company.<\/p>\n

Family Ties<\/h2>\n

Sorry, ladies and gentlemen: Jason Momoa is tied down pretty firmly as a family man. Not only does he have a lovely wife, but he\u2019s used ink to memorialize his children.<\/p>\n

They stay close to his heart, quite literally: their names are inked directly on his chest.<\/p>\n

The Real Aquaman<\/h2>\n

Arguably, the most noticeable Jason Momoa tattoo is on his left arm. It is a full sleeve of triangles that take up nine entire rows.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a very striking look, and you\u2019ll see it onscreen as well. Look closely, and you\u2019ll notice this real tattoo has been integrated into his Aquaman look.<\/p>\n

So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish<\/h2>\n
