Ian Mckellen as Gandalf the Grey in the film trilogy is the subject of this Lord of the Rings tattoo. Gandalf is a not-quite-human wizard who assists the hobbits, elves and dwarves to end the Dark Lord’s destruction of Middle-earth. Protrait tattoos like these are often more difficult than tribal or cartoon tattoos, as the tattoo artist must make every detail perfect so that the character is recognizable.
