Types and sketches of tattoos
There are several of the most popular sketching options.
Pentagram
It is with this sign that the TV series "Supernatural" is associated. The pentagram can be seen on the chest of both Dean and Sam Winchester. In the series, this sign is enclosed in a circle, along the perimeter of which flames are located. The pentagram has nothing to do with satanic symbolism and occult rituals, as many might think. On the contrary, the pentagram means "anti-possession": it protects its wearer from evil spirits and forces.
For the heroes of the series, such a tattoo also acted as a talisman. The brothers often had to deal with demons and their antics. The pentagram tattoo helped them a lot. The fact is that not a single demon can inhabit a person on whose body this sign is present.
In general, the pentagram in this series can be seen not only on the brothers' tattoos. Sam and Dean Winchesters often portrayed her in order to use her to catch the demon and extract certain information from him. This evil could not get out of such a trap.
Chevrolet Impala
The Chevrolet Impala is a posh vintage 1967 car that Dean treasured. According to the plot of the series, she left the assembly line of the General Motors plant. This car went to the brothers from their father, John Winchester, who also hunted for evil spirits after the death of his wife. According to the plot of the series, in one of the episodes, Dean himself advised his father to buy this car when he went to the past.
The Chevrolet Impala is featured in virtually every Supernatural series. It is on her that the brothers travel around America. In her trunk, they keep a whole arsenal of weapons that they need to fight evil spirits. This car is considered another key thing that most people associate with this series and the Winchester brothers. You can say this car is an additional protagonist of "Supernatural", so much of importance to the plot.
Tattoos depicting this machine are also very popular. As a rule, it is performed in black, that is, as it appears in the series. Sometimes such a tattoo is supplemented with a car number - KAZ 2Y5.
However, if you watch the show closely, you will notice that the Impala had other numbers: CNK 80Q3 and BQN 9R3.
Weapon
Weapons are common in Supernatural. Among these weapons, the image of a magical colt most often comes across on tattoos. This is a mysterious artifact that, according to legend, was capable of destroying any creature, be it a powerful demon or a simple vampire. Moreover, the Colt was also the key to the gates of hell. With his help, they were opened. It was for this weapon that John Winchester, the father of the brothers, hunted for so long. With the help of the Colt, he wanted to kill the yellow-eyed demon Azazel, because of which his wife, Mary Winchester, died in the fire.
According to the series, the Colt was created by Samuel Colt. Included with this weapon were 13 silver bullets: each of them was of great importance, because it was not so easy to make them. On tattoos, the Colt is depicted in different ways. Often, fantastic creatures can be drawn next to him, as well as quotes from the TV series or from the Bible.
Despite the fact that the Colt is a weapon, its image does not carry any aggressive meaning.... On the contrary, Colt means strong family love and devotion. This is due to the context of the series: John Winchester tried for a long time to get a Colt in order to take revenge on Azazel and kill him. However, the life of his son, Dean, was literally hanging by a thread, he was dying. To keep Dean alive, John made a deal. Despite a great desire for revenge, he gave his priceless weapon and his soul to the yellow-eyed demon.
Somewhat less often on tattoos associated with the "Supernatural", there is an image of such a weapon as an angelic blade. It was with this weapon, according to the plot of the series, that an angel could be killed.
Angel wings
Another popular image that is often found on tattoos. It symbolizes the Winchesters guardian angel - Castiel.At first, there were very tense relations between the brothers and the angel, but over time he began to be considered part of their family. Thanks to the Winchesters, Castiel got to know people better, learned to understand them better.
There are different options for tattoos depicting angel wings. So, a drawing with wings and a pentagram, like the Winchesters, is quite common. Often the brothers' initials are present there: S. W. and D. W. In addition, sometimes such drawings depict Dean Winchester's amulet, which was presented to him by his brother in his distant childhood. According to the plot of the series, this amulet glowed, which meant that God himself was somewhere nearby.
There are other options as well. So, there are such sketches of tattoos, where not only Castiel's wings are depicted, but he himself. And in some of these drawings, only the angel's cloak is present, along with its wings.
Quotes
Tattoos with quotes from the series are also very popular. Their selection is quite large. Moreover, for the most part, each of these quotes has a huge semantic load. That only is the statement of Bobby Singer - a man who was practically a second father for the brothers: "The family does not end in blood." However, certain quotes that are used most often stand out. Among them is the phrase “Non timebo mala”. Literally it translates as "I will not fear evil." This is a phrase from the Bible, which was present in one of the texts, with the help of which demons were expelled from people.
Another popular phrase associated with this show is"Always keep fighting"... It is translated as follows: "Never stop fighting." This quote has a lot to do with the actor who played Sam Winchester, Jared Padalecki. There was a depressive period in his life, which fell on the filming of season 3 of the series. The actor was helped to get rid of depression by his favorite work and close people. And this quote, which is now often used for tattoos on the theme of "Supernatural", became his motto.
For many people, this phrase serves as a kind of appeal not to give up even in the most difficult situation.
"Carry on, my wayward son" is another popular quote that is part of the Kansas song... This song is used as the theme song for Supernatural. Literally this phrase is translated as "Come back, prodigal son." Most often, all these inscriptions are only an addition to the main image on the tattoo, but there are exceptions.
Places of application
The tattoos associated with this series can be applied to any part of the body. This usually depends on the preferences of the person himself.
If we are talking about a tattoo with a pentagram, then it is often placed in the place where it is located in the heroes of the series - in the chest area. However, placing the image on other parts of the body is also allowed.
If we talk about other drawings, then their location is chosen based on the wishes of the bearer of the future tattoo, as well as on its scale.
Often these tattoos are applied to the shoulder, forearm, back or wrist.
