yeah permanently mutilating your body because you have $60 in disposable income is really /fa/

>>8865065
If it means something to you and you know you won't regret it in 20 years (remember how much you hate some of the stuff you loved 10 years ago? Yeah), sure, go for it.

Does anyone have anything similar to this?

>>8865065
i don't want to be a dick about something you obviously find meaningful enough to permanently ink on your body but the text sounds really pretentious to me and maybe as you age it will sound different to you too. i would avoid getting that.

been thinking about getting either an empty circle on my inner wrist or three dots on my bicep, do you think it'd be effay or just autistic?

>>8865775

> means i like circles, bitch

I thought about getting a knife, which stings through a hand somewhat like in the pic, in the style of Keith Harings drawings (all with the 'motionlines' and stuff).

why would you tattoo benzene on you?

>>8873696
What is that? Looks like some variation of seele's logo from NGE

>>8874742
I thought benzene was three lines

Either way, the backstory to that is it's a makeshift band symbol for my little fuck-around rock group. We sort of decided that if we ever published an album, we'd all get it just to commemorate the fact that we actually got that far from a band that was originally just for a joke. That's why I want it to be somewhere hidden; unless we hit it REALLY big, this band has maybe a 5 year max lifespan left.

>>8874740
That actually sounds quite cool. Not sure how yellow ink would look though.

>>8875137
What gave you that idea?

>>8875156

I saw a mugshot of a guy who had one a few years ago, and I guess I liked how in your face socially inacceptable it was. I don't really like this whole movement of tattoos becoming meaningless and inoffensive. You know that if you got a tattoo like that everyone would think youre a serial killer and you wouldnt be able to get a job anywhere. You'd have to be totally disconnected with a normal healthy human mindset to get that tattoo. It's not something I'd actually ever want, but I still think it's very interesting.

>>8874833

>>8873356

it's an awesome symbol but i don't like your idea

that would be stupid

not really. we don't look back on sailor tattoos that way

Besides, minimalist tattoos are currently fashionable. Tribal tattoos were never fashionable.

>>8874740
>solid yellow coloring for your flesh

Nigger no. Just no. Yellow fades horribly and looks terrible on most skin types when it's not used as a highlight color.

Otherwise, I love the design. Good red and green selections for the color.

no probably not but what's the point of tattooing muscles on yourself if they're going to look that inaccurate like if you're going to do something, do it right. if you base your tattoos on what the average person knows or cares about you might as well get dumbass tattoed on your leg in kanji with tribal designs surrounding it.

Plus it'd aesthetically look better if it was even slightly accurate because the muscles would need less shading and pop more. Most of those those heavily inked weird little muscles would be covered by the larger ones and it would sit better on his arm. As it is his bicep is way too tiny and his forearm flexors are fucked up.

It's okay to get random tattoos just because they look cool because there is no way to get something like that 'wrong.' But yeah he got the muscles wrong and now his tattoo is stupid.
