Tattoo thread. I need some inspiration
Post yours
Friendly reminder all tattoos are faggy unless they are earned someway
ie.
>prison tattoos
>military tattoos
>right of passage tattoos
etc.
>>10915891
>degenerate tattoos
>idiot tattoos
>nigger tattoos
that's what i read in your post you stupid faggot
>>10915891
>>10916081
Stop plebs.
>>10915863
gf and I were looking up tattoos like this last night and cringing at how graphic tee tier they were.
Don't do it, OP.
>>10916661>>10915863
tattoos can be good, but it's the exception (redundant statement)
first of all, don't get anything like whatever that is in the OP pic
Reposting this
Opinions on this as a full back piece?
(Nothing symbolic, just like the way it looks)
>>10917075
... You dont know what it means, but youre putting this symbolic esoteric drawing on your back. What happens if someone asks you about it? Someone non retarded.
>>10917087
Nigga you ain't even an alchemist. May as well get the Nerv leaf and a naruto headband.
I once saw a chick with the bloodseal tattooed on her neck. She had a bunch of video game and anime shit and was named Rain or something like that.
>>10917075
No.
>>10916096
>pleb
lmao everyone and their mums got tattoo
tattoos arent cool, its not 1950 anymore
>>10915891
It's RITE of passage, you imbecile. Besides, getting any tattoo can be seen as a rite of passage.
Even a white girl getting a feather tattoo is a rite of passage in a way, especially amongst her peer group.
>>10917160
jesus christ, shut up asshole, you know what he meant.
that one cultural anthropology class you took at shitstain state university forgot to mention that you - yes, YOU - are fully within your right to pass qualitative judgment on other people. he's doing just this in delegitimizing the "white girl" (that's right, pay your lip service to your cool shitskin overlords) and her rite of passage with her "peer group" (oh god oh god let me cum to your introductory-level textbook phrases)
>>10915863
>been thinking of getting tattoos for long ass times
>have come to the conclusion that I really only want abstract tattoos maybe text, nothing that portrays anything particular
>want to also have some meaning behind every tattoo
I have some rough ideas already but really I don't want to rush taking them, I'll wait as long as it takes for the ideas to really come together in my head.
>>10917178
I honestly can't tell what you're trying to say and I can't understand why you're so angry. I find it strange that you think that using an extremely basic term like "peer group" is just a means to impress people. If anything it sounds like you're the one who recently learned of it.
>>10917178
im cringing at your anger
You don't have to be so easily offended
>>10915863
tattoos are for poor people
>>10917075
Already told you people will think it's from Full metal alchemist or neon genesis evangelion and if that's not the case they'll think you are jewish because that tattoo is the "tree of life" and if you still don't mind those things it still looks like garbage
Left or right?
>>10917293
right
>>10917293
Right. I want to get one very similar to that soon.
>>10917075
this kind of leads me to a question
is a tattoo more about
meaning
or
aesthetic?
or maybe should a good tattoo be more "spiritual" than just some accesory
>>10917348
>meaning
>or
>aesthetic?
you can go with what you want.
but when you go with the aesthetic be prepared to get laughed at when you tell them that it has no meaning.
happens to me every time
>>10917293
>>10917322
Dont do it, the fucking forest with birds is so overdone. Gonna be tribal tier soon
>>10917525
It's already tribal tier desu
Should I get Waldo tattooed on my taint
Why don't you stop chatting and post some fucking inspo

my first tattoo
Still want to pick this up
>>10917642
>>10917658
These are cool
I wanna get a tattoo but I'm worried about it getting in the way of making people like me.
>>10917678
Put it in a place they cant see.
The back is a good hiding spot...
>>10917678
Thanks senpai
>>10917567
Thats what i thought too, that right one is very well made though
>>10915863
Anyone got a picture of the portrait tattoo of Mary Magdalane where she has a tear drop tattoo and other crazy shit, looks like a hipster Harley Quinn
>>10916081
Yes exactly. Tattoos are shit
>>10917833
I like top middle, does it have any meaning?
>>10915891

>>10917946
watercolor tats are shiit
>>10917980
like it, but the under line i would have liked streight
>>10917973
Yes!
only tattoo i would personnaly do are these yantra because of my origins
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yantra_tattooing
>>10918017
most of them are done in the back though
>>10917956
>implying that isn't effay as fuck
>>10918020
Also, most are gay and stupid
>>10917884
Something like this
>>10917075
Dont do it. Your taste will change as time go by
breddy zure you're just trolling OP
that's fucking horrible.
>>10917946
utter garbage that will fade and warp within the year.
>>10918017
i want to culturally appropriate the shit out of that

also these are sick
>>10915863
Why are there so many ugly skinny yts polluting this thread
>>10918349
That's dope, but unfortunately I enjoy being employable.
>>10918307
Personally I think just the image carries enough symbolism on its own
But hey it's your skin
>>10918394
>not being a self employed stock trader who browses 4chan and takes opiates all day
Step it up senpai
>>10918492
Topkek.
>>10918436
Yeah, its more just to do something slightly different with it.
>>10918322
>>10918327
The finger tattoos that say HAND crack me up
>>10917525
I wasn't planning on getting birds I was thinking of getting a mountain range above it.
Got this two days ago. Sorry for the shit photo. Cbf getting out of bed for better light. And it's on te bottom of my tricep so had to flip the image. It all has meaning 550 is for my parents.
>>10918831
Yes everything is straight and the circles are proper just awkward to take a photo of it.
Opinions?
>>10918831
p dope
>>10917348
I understand wanting art on your body, but I would only want to do something permanent if it had a meaning.
I gave myself a tattoo at 15 as a sort of coming-of-age thing. At the time it was sort of about choosing the person I wanted to grow up to be, and representing that somehow. It turned out fuck ugly, but it still makes me smile when I catch sight of it in the mirror.
>>10919436
this hurts my insides
anyone like stefan's tattoos?
>>10915863

man if people don't wana talk to you b/c of tattoos they probably suck anyway, but just put them in a concealable place
>>10918307
Cheeky Spike. How about "See you space cowboy" instead? The fucking nostalgia's hitting me now.
>>10920099
pretty effay if you ask me
stick and poke one. pretty shitty though
>>10920226
Yes please love the concept, thinking about something themed around nidhögg (serpent biting its tail from norse mythology)
>>10917293
I have three friends who have the trees shit. Once it fades it looks like trash not worth. Over done and shitty.
>>10917108
Everyone wears clothes too. It's not my fault that you can't make stylistic distinctions between things.
>>10917678
>making people like me
A-Are you a s-sociopath anon?
>>10920934
>pretty shitty
ya think?
>>10921031
nidhögg isnt the one biting it's own tail. thats midgårdsormen. nidhög is the dragon on the bottom of yggrdasil chewing on one of its three roots until ragnarök occurs
>>10920099
Honestly? I think that they are cool as fuck
That demon on his left side? Woah
got this as a half sleeve
>>10922765
post a pic?
>>10922784
don't want to post right now because it really needs to be touched up
>>10922805
aw but im kinda interested senpai
idc if it looks like complete shit, the reference image looks interesting so i'm interested in seeing how it'd play out as an actual piece
>>10922815
If the thread is still alive in a few hours I could possibly sneak away from work to post a pic. Don't currently have one right now.
>>10922816
neat
>>10922825
Actually just found this one on Instagram. Like I said, needs to be touched up.
>>109222
feynman /fa/ af
This is my face tattoo. It gets me laid. That's was the point desu
>>10917293
Right looks cool but in 10-20 years it's just going to look like you have a dirty arm.
>>10917643
i hope itll be DIY stick n poke
>>10924137
nah f.a.m
Got a stick and poke last week. Looks kinda shitty but I love it
>>10917293
i would rather cut off my arm then get either of those
>>10920934
Must suck having a really visible shitty tattoo hahahahah
>>10922058
Like the concept but the sketch didnt work
>>10920934
>>10924367
I like the look of stick and pokes, all my tattoos are stick and pokes, but at least do them correctly ie, with an ounce of effort.
>made design in CAD
>printed onto paper with packing tape adhered to it
>press design onto relaxed skin
>poke entirety of design in one go onto stretched skin (mine are above knees so I just bent my leg)
>wash area
>carefully fill in any gaps, ink will expand over several days/weeks
>>10919436
Man I wish I ran my own business so I could ink all of my waifus on my skin.
>>10920934
You can easily get that corrected

runes are very effay, especially the algiz
>>10925192
thinking about getting one basically exactly like this but just ansuz
>>10927436
thats the gayest most generic faggottumblr shit ever
>>10927436
What a shitty tattoo.
>>10927436

used to live in indonesia growing up as a teenager, this is an old traditional decorative symbol that people would wear as a necklace. /fa/?

Getting this one on Tuesday

>>10927908
*MEME*
>>10927918
nah, OC.
>>10918153
y so srs?
Do you think for 500 dollars can i get a tattoo on my arm (the whole arm) or no?
>>10928662
usually no, but depends on the artist/quality. You get what you pay for anon.
>>10917218
Absolutely, not just financially, but culturally poor.
>>10918342
Dat radiation doe
>>10919406
"I'm sorry sir, but you don't meet the qualifications for this position."
>>10922211
At least this one keeps it real, but it makes you look like an insufferable try-hard.
>>10922250
So edgy... manchild confirmed
>>10922901

I did a drawing of his hands when that film came out and it was only after drawing for like three hours that I realised the other hand said "some" and he wasn't just labelling body parts
desu it was kind of a disappointing realisation actually
>>10917833
lower right looks like fuckin quake 3 arena
kek
>>10928662
I don't think so, im not sure how the prices are where you live anon. But where I live it's around a 100€/h. Depending on the artist ofcourse. A whole arm (depending on details, colors,...) can easily take around 20-25 hours.
>>10929774
This is so fucking gay
>>10929809
just "IMPERIAL" could have been neat. like pic related
>>10929809
Rebel scum detected
The outlines of le fils de l'homme on my leg, or is it a meme piece of art?
Im a guy btw
?
>>10922830
lol terrible
on forearm
would pic related on my chest be too dumb
>>10930544
don't get joke tattoos, you idiot
>>10927770
Holy shit, I really hope so
>>10925198
what bad breast shape. Did they really fall for the wearing a bra all the time meme?
Think this would work?
I've got a continuous geometric type tattoo going. It's at half sleeve and chest status right now. Will post a few pics if anyone gives a shit. Otherwise, sorry, I'll kill myself.
>>10917293
Right, where were you thinking of gettin it ima get it pretty much the same just on my ankle
>>10917570
Yes
>>10918156
classic post of someone that knows shit. You probably have no tattoos
>>10930979
Post it /fa/m
>>10931322
As neat as it looks close up with a strong contrast filter, I can't imagine this looking good irl.
>>10927822
yes and that's a /fa/ reason to get it
I´m getting pic related tomorrow...
The shades will be done on my arm, but i think you can imagine how it will look.
The left skull seems a Little off to me, but i will check how it look after ist sketched on my arm.
Right forearm inside, btw.
>>10931322
Cool tumblr tat lmao
Fuck these threads are terrible.
I mean this fucking guy >>10928662 thinks you can get a sleeve for 500$
>>10931574
no no no lmao
if i saw this i would think it was referencing the tattoo itself
like you got a tattoo saying pain is temporary to show others that you withstood the pain of the tattoo to get the siqq420 skullz
dont get this lmao
>>10915891
Read the greentext first and though you were listing faggot tattoos
>>10920099
Very tryhard
>>10919436
>You'll never have the confidence to get a naked mikuru tattooed on your arm
>>10930544
Good to add for a collection sleeve, but getting that tattoo on your chest limits it's concept too much.
Gag tattoos are low-tier.
>>10930133
I can dig it.
>>10931574
>>10931582
i think the text and dagger are nice, but please dont get the skulls. there are so many options, that would look infinitely better with that text
ITT
>Look at this tattoo I found someone with
>Wow yeah that looks pretty good
>Look at this tattoo I got
>lmao that's shit brah
>>10931574
Dude... Come on lol
>>10927815
Yes, actually. Not that that's a good thing.
>>10925192
i like binding of isaac too but not that much senpai, it looks pretty good though
I'm about to get the bat head in the end of the month, but I don't know where
>>10932596
get the whole fuckin thing all up your arm. Would be a dope sleeve I reckon
>>10932859
I just can't mate.
Just wait for it
>>10932859

>>10925192

Well, make sure they actually mean something and (at least try to) respect writing traditions. Abbreviations and acronyms don't work well with runes.

>>10931574
That looks like an Ed Hardy design. lmao
>>10934412
>>10934433
Love these. They look clean. Although I'm biased because I like ocean themed tattoos.
Something like >>10934444 won't hold up as well as it ages
>>10931581
That pic would probably make a pretty great tat if it was just the lineart t b h
>>10934774
Are you illiterate enough not to read that as molly ellen?
I've been thinking about getting the constellation of Orion, does /fa/ approve? Would probably end up getting it somewhere on the back or chest area.
>>10934980
I dare you to get just the dots, it would look much better
>>10934384
What about a simple shape? Like a plain circle or something like that? There is probably something better but that's all I can really think of.
>>10934384
A slinky
>>10934980
cool idea but I dunno constellations just look fucked and I'm into geometric shit so not really my taste I guess. Not bad though, if you like it go for it. I'd put that one on the chest.
>>10917178
Hes the asshole because he pointed out the other faggots terrible reasoning? As though the 'meaning' of a tattoo has any bearing on its quality or creative merit
>>10934980
>>10935030
oh and don't have it as just that, add something to give it more body and a more fluid look. Find an artist that does the kind of shit that you like and get their interpretation and thoughts. Remember most tattooers were artists before they put ink on peoples skin
Also I want something you don't see too much of, I also want a career in biology, so I was thinking something uncommon like the stages of mitosis going across the knuckles, or something like that. I'm worried other people will think its 'weird' to just have a something like that on somebody's knuckles. Anyway....
>>10935053
You'd have a hard time getting a job with knuckle tattoos. You could try having it on your toes instead.
>>10935053
I'd say diagrams can be pretty effay, for really the same reasons as woodcuts.
I agree with >>10935087 though, if you want a career in biology then you should avoid knuckle tattoos.
Having those be a wraparound or in a straight line would be interesting.
>>10935124

Why ? Because they are ugly ?
>>10917643
As a person who was in a band that people got tattoos of, I just want to say that 100% of the time a fan showed me their tattoo I instantly lost any respect I could have had for them as a person.
Not trying to get into this any deeper, but getting a tattoo of a band you like is a huge mistake and you will live to regret it.
>>10935156
some of em are ugly, I don't really regret any of them, just have to get some redone
>>10935157
respectfully don't see your point. if the design used is aesthetically pleasing and or if they actually found meaning within your music that would drive them to do something like get a tattoo, why in the world would you lose respect for a person like that? it's like saying "oh you love what my band and I do to such a degree that you got a reminder of it permanently inked onto you? im ungrateful, fuck off." idk, just don't see why you would take such a degree of disgust with it.
Been thinking about getting the same chain tattooed on my arm. Thoughts?
>>10935213
>any SJ anime tattoo
>ever
>>10935145
I reckon they look fucking mint
>>10935198
I cant believe i'm agreeing with a fucking tripfag but yeah, that guy sounds like a massive cunt. Losing respect for someone because their music meant a lot to you is such a childish thing to say and probably means you never had any respect for your fans to begin with
>>10935236
They look pretty cool, although I recommend lifting or picking up a martial art, many people(where I am from at least) see any kind of knife or gun tattoo as an invitation for a fight as you think you are a tough guy
Has anyone ever tried picking a fight with you before?
>>10935190
Sure, I like the hoodskull a lot.
>>10935380
Shit, what do I risk with my explosive then ?
>>10935380
Nah I'm from Melbourne Aus and no one really beefs over shit like that. You might get some retarded Lebo that'll arc up easier if you have tats but that usually doesn't end in anything.

>>10935152

You're not wrong. I hate faggot s who get Russian prison tattoos. Especially since I'm from a county where having a tattoo you didn't warn will warrent you having it forcibly removed.

>>10918307
>>10920661
>>10917435
Just ask them why it needs a meaning. I'd prefer to get laughed at for having no meaning then say something retarded like 'it symbolises x because y happened to me.' Like fuck, people who attach meanings to their tattoos generally sound like gigantic faggots.

>>10934418
reminds me of 14 pulsars
>>10938134
agreed, it's even worse when the meaning is a pile of bullshit.
but on the other hand it's hard to draw something permanent on your skin without it being meaningful if you see what i mean.

It´s done...pic related.
I´m very happy with it, so go ahead and say whatever you like because >>10932137

Looking good anon.

I think you picked a very good color palette. Nice and muted.
Doesn't look nearly as trashy/Ed Hardy as it could have been.
>>10938802
>>10938935
It still looks very, very ed hardy-ish though.
But it's all good, people barely look at detailed tattoos like this for very long. And as long as he's happy with it...
>>10938802
You forgot the anchor

I actually really like the way the snake looks. Brush stroke tattoos are hard to do and at the best of times can look really good.

Somewhere well hidden.
>>10938951
I like the brush stroke look, but the head looks like a smiling cartoon snake.

the snake is the symbol of the ouroboros, it signifies cyclicality. kind of like a minimalist griffin.
This was my first, I will add some stuff around and get some more once I start working again..
