As i know its the kanji for "zen" but anyway its a secondary, i mainly wanted the circle, y also could overwrite the kanji later for something else

>>12316262
and so are u, and me. drop sum acid/do wim hof breathing excersise 3x daily for a week.

>>12316303
You wont scare me with fail jap characters... I think..

Got this a while back. Pic taken the same day

>>12316622
you have good taste in music

>>12316622
Pretty cool one, how much did you pay for?

>>12316719
I think it went for 150 with tips. An
apprentice did it for me, so maybe that bumped down the price

>>12316216
what does it mean? i like it

>>12316756
pretty good apprentice

>>12316764
English is not my first language, but he was "learning". Like that japanese guy from Miami Ink. This guy was also japanese, barely spoke english.

>>12316764
Oops, thought you asked me

you thought wrong, bro.

>>12316120
>200
>so much to fill in
nah m8, you got a real good deal desu

I'm thinking of getting something like pic related to cover some self injury scars from my teen years.

maybe a wing instead

how much can i expect to pay for a tattoo of this size? i'm in texas. rough estimate is fine, i just want to know what i'm in for

>>12317043
Looks like shit, man. Go for something less tacky.

>>12316216
Shity lines, bad shading
overall bad work
In who's kitchen did you get this?

>>12317043
It will just look like one big grey mess in less than 10 years

>>12317086
Not going to get that exact tattoo, just thinking about armor (preferably leather but chain mail is ok too) or a wing. It needs to take up most of my delt if it's going to cover the scars.

>>12317133
I wasn't talking about that tattoo, I was talking about the idea of armor. That's tacky.
"Badass" tattoos always make you look like a try hard. But that's just my opinion.

>>12317141
I shouldn't like this as much as I do

>>12316622

That is whale of a tattoo.

>>12316596
Pretty good, punpun's great.

Wew laddy

>>12317126
dont listen to this guy

Got this yesterday :^)

>>12316596
Aiko kills herself.

Did i fuck up? I think its still funny even tho i got it last year LOL

Love her tattos

The small boat is nice

>>12317176
I'm a girl. I didn't even think about it as "badass." I play D&D and usually play leather armor wearing characters. I kind of liked the idea of showing leather armor beneath my skin.

I also just need something that will cover my shoulder. I figure I can't show that part of skin in public anyway. If the tattoo ends up sucking, it won't make much difference.

I'm open to other suggestions, but it needs coverage.


Though no one has clued me in as to how much it costs. Looking at websites, it looks like it's an hourly rate, but I'm not sure how long something like that would take.

>>12316764

>>12317126

A lot of the "shading" you're seeing is just blood, I was literally walking out of the shop as this was taken.

Definitely not the best work money could buy but for a b/w piece about 3 inches in size I am fine with it.

>>12317655

<3

got only a few replies in the last thread so im reposting, thinking of getting something like this

>>12317816

These look great on the page but I feel like I never like them as much when I see them in person...I feel like they would look better around a bicep or thigh as opposed to a forearm.

>>12317043
>im just getting it to cover le self harm scars xD
Why cant you just admit you want a tattoo because it looks cool? Just fucking lol

>>12317816
I thought these were cool....when I was 16 lmao

>>12317655
l o l he's absolutely right though nancy boy. It's a nice idea but the execution is pretty bad. Never settle when something's going to be permanent on your skin.

>>12317738

you only think its funny so the panic doesn't set in about how retarded it looks. Could've got something way more meaningful/subtle to capture your youth but now you're just that guy with that shitty obscure meme tattoo or guy with shitty drawn frog on a unicycle. So embarrassing if true.

>>12317657
I wanna hate this but it's sicccc

>>12317896

That is definitely valid, if you want something to be perfect you shouldn't compromise, however on the other hand there's the significant chunk of people, some of them posting on this board, who admire stick and poke, russian prison tats etc. and generally appreciate the character of something less than perfect without insecurity.

Especially since I consciously chose a reference image that also has imperfect lines, I pretty much expected to get exactly what I ended up with.

>>12317783
Those upper lines are gonna be gone in a matter of months

>>12317655

>>12316120
Desu, I think full moonrunes don't look too bad

>>12317743

Good or bad idea for an inner forearm piece?
Colours?

>>12318140
Well on my opinion i always try to get something i can prowly show to grandma but if you like it then nothing cant stop you

>>12318037
Well there are some exceptions... Kek

Im planning to do this one but i waknt to replace black paint for space.. Opinions? Will post one day when i get it

>>12317933
Ty ty

>>12317657
I've seen this posted a long time before, why do you copy other people's tats?

i want the words "I'LL TAKE MY LIFE LIKE I KEPT IT" and ill illustrate something to go with it maybe. feel like its no that edgy at all and i fucking love it.

>>12318159

>>12317856
That tattoo does not look cool

>>12318381
yeah man is it cringe? i feel like it dabbles in dark/suicide/uplifting/life motto/music reference

>>12318503
nothing cringey about death grips imo, big fan. I'm not a big fan about lyrics tattoos or word tats in general, depends how you go about it.

>>12318037
HEY MY NAME IS MYV

>>12318140
I'd go no colours. Cool idea.

>>12317657
Basic as fuck. You and every art hoe

>>12318509

it's stupid and ugly lol

>>12317738
nice one. people who browse these threads have bad enough taste that they're going to actually believe you

>>12317757
get some kind of crest or find a cool medieval/renaissance illustration that's big enough to cover it, if you want to keep with the fantasy theme. imo classical woodcut prints tend to make good tattoos. it would probably end up costing upwards of a few hundred dollars, at least.

>>12319416
I tend to hate flowers, but those are really nice.

>>12316622
>Got this a while back

Did you mean 'got this a whale (hump)back'?

>>12320296
dude
lmao

>>12317816
I like that kind of style too.
Never seen one in real life tho.
This is my favourite.

Second favourite.

I have probably posted this before but I really like it.

I really want this so that when I see dudes with tattoos that look like their skin is torn to reveal something underneath, I can offer to fix it for them.

I'm thinking of doing it but I don't know where yet, suggestions?

>>12319380
Is this yours? It's very good m8

>>12320394
I like it. Eastern European?

>>12320907
Hi Squiidward!

>>12320409
I like the tattoo for it's simplicity but your reason is stupid as fuck.

got this a couple weeks back in amsterdam

>>12318159
whatever floats your boat. only issue is that the head of the pagasus needs to stand apart from the wing, and have its own outline, otherwise it will age terribly.

>>12319416
best ITT

>>12315769
why the fuck can't tattoo artists just do what you ask them to do? why do they have to always tell you "oh this won't come off right, this would widen the frame, thisthishtisthathat".
I 'm paying you a fuckton of money
I 'm going to have this tattooed on my skin forever.
I have my reasons for it looking like that.

Shut up and do it, you fucktard

>>12317126
>Shity lines, bad shading


nobody cares
he lieks it, that's what matters

>>12322450
>why do people tell me that what i want is literally impossible instead of leaving me with a shitty blob on my skin for the rest of my life that i can tell everyone they are responsible for

>>12322461
>what i want is literally impossible

have you seen tattoos? at all?

>>12317816
>>12320394

these are fucking great.
The first one especially if you 're into black.

>>12322472
if they're telling you "this won't come off right" or whatever, doesn't that mean that they can't make it look like the thing you asked for? unless i'm misunderstanding

>>12317896
>Never settle when something's going to be permanent on your skin.
>>12322461
>>12317126

>please make our industry great

>>12322450
because they know better than you do

>>12322491
1. It means that they think that it won't come off right, it will become blurry,as you or someone else said in this thread about the pegasus tattoo, or that it will not translate well on skin or whatever the fuck.

2.Have you seen tattoos? Have you seen what people can draw on skin with needles? Unbelievable shit. No, I insist. It is far from impossible.

>>12322499
just shut up, I know what I want.

>>12320910
No, it's a tattoo of the album art of an album that has a lot of emotional significance to me. I'm thinking of getting it as my first tattoo because it's both meaningful and cool looking.

>>12319380
fuck, i've been thinking about getting this.
fucking great album, a lot of memories. rip.

Thinking of getting something like this for my first tattoo. Probably a cross-hatched, minimalist style, not such a vibrant green. Thoughts?

mine

>>12323458
hmmmm.
is that even a tatt?

Unless you're already making enough money, getting a tattoo anywhere that you can see when wearing shorts and tshirt is early career suicide. Don't ruin your entire future just to be trendy right now

>>12323462
post yours

>>12323389
don't

>>12323458
I like the design but the shitty filters you put over it just make it look like its a bad photoshop

>>12323389
terrible idea f4m, wait a couple years and you'll understand.

>>12319416
Awesome
I wish i could have one like that but i cant because of my job...

>>12323698
Me too. I'm in Uni to be a public school teacher. I'm so afraid of getting any tattoo because I don't want to seem unprofessional.

>>12322386
Also is hard to find a decent pegasus. Anyway i wss planning to do that one or this one from pic a good artist told me it will cost 600 bucks.. Is it fair?

Thoughts on traditional japanese tattoos?
I really love the aesthetic though I'm not japanese which is the main problem I see with it.
But hey, I'm a l'art pour l'art kind of guy and the aesthetic appeal alone is really drawing me in.

>>12323717
They'good but theres a risk on kanji, you may think you tattooed something like " god be with you" when actually may say something like " i eat raw meat while sleeping" i suggest you to ask to a native japanese or a jap teacher about your quote and for the japanese draws yah they rocks imo.. My girl is gonna pay for 2 koi fishes on her arm

>>12323753
Yeah, I know about the whole kanji problem.
To be honest I wasn't planning on text, I wanted something more along the lines of straight up artwork in a half-sleeve, was thinking a design with an oni centerpiece.

>>12323707
Can't you just get tattoos you can cover with clothes? School teachers usually wear sleeves and long pants.

>>12323671

> mfw 23 and don't understand

>>12323353
So sad I started listening after he died. Such a touching artist wish I could have seen him live. Have you watched the recording of Josephine doc?

>>12323353
Just thinking how deep this album hits a lot of people it seems. There are a bunch of google images of people with the exact album art, and both of us are thinking of getting it (it'd be my first).

>>12324762
>>12324773

>>12325040

>>12317657
u can tell it wasnt done by johnnygloom

I miss a pagan so it's symbolic to me

>>12325343
I am***

Heavily considering getting one of these.

>Yea or Nay?

>>12325236
It is off but it's correct if the guy is situs inversus in which the apex of his heart is reversed and goes toward the right side instead of the left

But it's doubtful since it's a very very rare trait

>>12323781
That's what I'm considering. I'm in grad school, so I can teach at the upper level when I get out, and it's becoming more common for professors to have visible tattoos. But if I teach overseas it's still an issue, but long sleeves can cover that.

What do you think of one of these as a tattoo?

>>12327190

>>12317816
do you all see the skull in the center picture? Was that intended?

>>12325379
I might get the center illustration with the arrow replaced with something else, but I'd say nay on the whole spine.

>>12323421
Fuck this is so sick

>>12323458
equally sick design but this photo look whack

>>12327213
Probably bait, but I'll answer.
Ofcourse it was intended anon, it's a negative space tattoo.

probably the worst tattoo thread I've ever seen

>>12315769
Planning on getting my first in the next couple months. Any advice on choosing a design? Is it enough to say I want a sikk oni and I like green?

>>12328304
You plan getting a tattoo before even settling on a design?
under the cold shower you go

>>12328311
I mean I have ideas but short of drawing it myself or copying, how specific can I be?

are grace neutral tattoos a meme? sometimes they look really aesthetic but others they just look like random geometric figures

>>12316672

why would you do anything xd

>>12328996
Why would you post on this board

>>12329534
Is that a mouse or a cat

How many of you actually come up with your own designs and shit?
I want my first tattoo to be special but coming up with an original idea isn't easy.

>>12329699
I do, i come up with a drawing and then i let my artist perfectionate it and alter it so it doesnt look weird when placed or when there's too much detail that will look like shit on certain areas of my body. have my entire right arm and neck done like this and it worked out fine imho and am now working on my left arm which will be done somewhere after summer.

>>12329534
terribly done f4m

Thoughts?

>>12327668
tbqh with potato hands like that, id probably do the same

>>12329951
eh

>>12329951
Are you the guy from the last thread? If you are, I'm glad you followed my suggestion. The placement isn't ideal IMO, but otherwise good job, I like it.

>>12329821
I like it. It's a tastefully done reference. I've seen so many that are just cringey.

>>12329951
made me lol. kinda cool

>>12330251
No i just found this on google images. I do kinda want it tho. Probably upper arm.

Would it be cringey to get something like this tattooed on my chest or arm? It's from a horror manga but I think the design is cool as hell.

>>12320390
w2c those dope shades???

>>12328894
looks horrible

This

Me personally- I dig it, think about getting it in like a month

>>12327121
I have the same issue but I'm aiming to end up working in a creative field- like journalism and related- so I don't think tattoos would be so looked down upon. If I were to end up in broadcast I'd usually work on a suit I supposed so a forearm tattoo wouldn't be a problem

>>12322450
Because they know what they're doing and you are quite probably not. Get your head out of your ass and try to listen to the guy that has been doing the shit you want for years and years because they are most likely doing you a favor, they dont care about 'yur fuckton of money' because they could probably just do without your whining ass.

>>12331244

isn't that Rust's tat from True Detective?

>>12331322
Such shit that it has a certain appeal to it. Still shit tho.

>>12331322
Love the colors and dark vibe to it
Wouldve placed the tiger's head more up and less of the flame-ish stuff going on above that, the ear-nipple just looks kinda awkward now imho

>>12324498
>mfw
>doesnt post a mfw

Got this late 2016 (pic from when it was just finished)
>>12325343
Shit I remember you from the old thread. Still mirin the back anon good shit

>>12318140
Probably a bad idea actually. Only because it's too detailed to be small enough to fit on your forearm. You'd want this on your body somewhere if you want full detail and yes, i'd go with no colour.

>>12330865
the whole page? I think the 4th bottom right panel would be best for a tat, like get the face on the left panel but the eye as it is on the low right looking straight ahead would be neat. if not the second.

just getting a full page of a manga is too much and its pretty uncreative to not try to make a design work better if you can.

>>12331328
Fuuuuck I knew I remembered it from somewhere. I found it in some old tattoo thread and didn't notice that at first. Shit. How autistic would it be to get it anyways?

>>12331403
Yeah I meant just the biggest panel, mostly just the head.

>>12321843
Sorry, that bit was supposed to be a joke.

Hey guys!
Do you think about the tattoo placement a lot, and do you ask for advise to the artist?
Also do you look around for artists and their works in your town or do you just ask them to tattoo you something you want?

so a friend of mine stick and poked herself

>>12331931
yeah, some spots on your body will suit different designs better, if you have long limbs and you're lean, tattoos will naturally look better on your arms and legs than if you were more meaty.

If you find an amazing artist who lives overseas, I would recommend saving up and travelling to get it whilst you're on holiday, its worth it

Hooah tattoo that nobody knows is a hooah tattoo

>>12325379
Are you a nugget? Are you moist?

>>12331322
Sad because the arms look so fucking gnarly but the chest piece is so mediocre, the flames at the top don't follow the body well, the gaps in between the arms are ugly, and the tiger face is fucking awful. Good job this is always covered.

My advice would be to laser tone it down and get some of the tiger face redone with nicer detail, and add onto the shape at the top, or just blackwork over all of it.

>>12331931
Of course. Fortunately my artist is really good, shes never steered me in the wrong direction.

I had my first tattoo done by a local guy. The design is sick but the work itself is mediocre. The next few peices I had done at one of the best shops in my city. It's always better to research for good artists that can pull off the style you want. Don't settle for some mediocre work done for cheap.

>>12323389

>starting on the lower arm
>first tattoo

Work your way down to the high visibility areas, don't try so hard. Most artists worth their salt will say no and you'll wind up at a shitty place and get a shitty, nearly-always-visible meme tattoo.

Ask yourself, are you getting the tattoo for other people to see? Or are you getting it for yourself.

how do ya guys decide for an image/graphic that will be forever on your body?

>>12336373
with your brain friendo

>>12336373
99% of people aren't gonna love something they put on their body forever, so just pick something that isn't offensive or grotesque etc. I have a tattoo of two hands in a pose on my chest, and I don't hate it but I don't love it either, but it's just sort of part of my body now.

So pick something you'll be indifferent towards in 5/10/15 years when your tastes and lifestyle and everything invariably change

This Thread is a fucking goldmine. You guys are 90% retarded. Please try and get a reputable tattoo artist. It's SUPPOSED to be fairly expensive that's how you know it's probably not going to be shit. Also Pastels are retarded.

Pastel Tattoos come and go as a fad for a reason new artists start doing them without having the experience to know that color without black outlining doesn't hold at all and fades very quickly. That's why that dumb ass pastel shit resurfaces over and over agian. Please get your tattoo done at a reputable shop you autists. The Line work on like 80% of these looks like a child did them.

And ANOTHER thing: Small intricate linework will blur over time. There's a reason a lot of pro tattoos have larger line work: It ages a lot better.
Godamn even buzzfeed has some decent tips for first timers you fucks need to do some research before you waste your money on Garbage that's going to be stuck on you forever.

just got this done give me gold

I had a tattoo idea, since I'm a big MGS fan

I want a grey fox, and a snake made out of water/liquid, to represent Grey Fox and Liquid Snake

would it be subtle enough to look cool, and not be nerdy?

Tomie is better

that sounds fucking awful senpai

You know whatever is on PURE WHITE FLAT PAPER may not look exactly the same on non flat skin. But im guessing you probably are a piece of sheet.

>>12336458
Cringy

still haven't gotten one, but has anyone let their tattoo artist do their own thing? i bet they hate copying existing things/designs exactly.

codex seraphinianus?

i feel weird as fuck knowing that obscure book would one day come up in my life, scrolling on a mongolian basketweaving forum talking about tattoos

>>12333563

Good advice, thanks anon

>>12333659

looking to get a new tat, but don't know where to put it.

any guides on what shapes look good on the body?

itt: incoming regret

>>12332281
You are the equivalent of the faggot who gets an EGA on his left pec day 3 of boot leave.

>>12337963
very nice

Got this after a trip to the amazon

>>12337949
Yeah man , my tat artist redrew it

I paid $900, it took around 5-6 hours

>>12337963
lmao the hair looks like the pube i missed shaving

>>12338322
hella dig it, love how its like a perfect rectangle too

>>12338322
only $900 for that????

who is the artist? every artist in my shithole state just makes shitty flaming skulls and disney characters

>>12320907
the trash

>>12336352
I used to not like the DUDE R'LYEH LMAO ending, but I'm fine with it now after a recent re-read. If Ito draws a manga out too long it just gets batshit ridiculous, but that's part of the charm

>>12334048
The whole Baphomet, or just his own "solve" and "coagula" tattoos?

>>12337963

is there a source for the pic?

>>12333659
see, this is exactly the shit I mean: this guy has a fucking Picasso on his arm and my tattoo artist argues that my innocent sketch will "take too much area" and reduces the fuck out of the concept.

>>12338733
you really need to get a better artist. I guarantee you that its worth it to go out of your way to find the right artist for what you want.

My tip is to combine travelling with getting tattoos, many amazing artists live in europe , I personally love getting tats in South Korea, I had my Picasso done there. Tattooing is illegal so its mostly underground artists, but they're gifted. Best to go in spring or warmer weather, not winter as covering up fresh ink with layers of clothing is not good (i got a tattoo infection this way).

Face it Instagram and tattoo conventions in big cities are by far the two best ways of finding good artists

Try following these pages for inspiration:

@ _winkt
@ tttism
@ thinkbeforeuink

My favourite account is @snake__pit
They post pictures of the shittiest most regrettable tattoos done on people.


follow @mxmttt for some of the best detailed black line work.

>>12339121
and I just wanna add, it costs heaps to go travelling and get tats, but its 100% worth it to get a reputable artist to do the work because as from personal experience, you will regret it and the Ink could possibly not heal or hold as well.

Any other questions you can ask

Hey guys i waa wondering if this one would look nice on my shoulder..
Any advice ?

Im having this done on Saturday. Id like to have it done without the hand though.

Thoughts?

>>12339940
what artist drew that. do you have his instagram? really cool design. reminds me a bit of what they do at sang bleu - pic related.

>>12339950
VytautasVy on insta, he's a local artist and love his stuff

>>12339964
I loathe that super duper clean graphic designer-y style

>>12338586
That's harsh

>>12323711
Hokusai is rolling in his grave.

Does anyone know of Kikkujo? I'd really like to get some of his art tatted.

>>12340237
it's a pretty well-executed tattoo despite being so popular
you're bitching over literally nothing and it makes you look like a dunce

thinking about getting the three headed dog at the bottom there on the left side of my neck, near where my neck meets my head.

Just a concept, but what do yall think of this

I wanna get a tattoo related to leaving my faith (ex muslim) but I don't want a /pol/ tier tattoo or a cringe atheism/agnostic one
Any suggestions?

>>12340339
only if qt asian

>>12340436
only thing i can think of is some (probably heavy handed) "bird free from its cage" "inmate released from their chains" bullshit

fresh

>>12329821
Now this is really well done

>>12316596
>>12322702
yo what is this style of skeleton/aesthetic called and where do i find more of it

>>12339940
Any other thoughts regarding this?

i think JUST the landscape inside the diamond would be cooler than the whole thing, but thats just my opinion
