I know Hvis lyset tar oss when I see it.
Currently in the process of getting mine lasered. Its not as painful as people say it is, but the blisters/itching is annoying.
>>741922401
Why are you getting it/them removed?
>>741922531
Not removed, lightened up for a bigger piece. Old tattoos are too dark to cover
>>741923041
I see. What piece do you have planned?
>>741923085
Not 100% sure yet, i still have months of laser sessions booked. Takes 6 weeks to heal between each session. Having atleast 6 sessions. Looking at maybe a geometric sleeve
>>741923319
That's a considerable amount of time. Good luck with whatever piece you decide on, anon.
>>741921752
Currently getting another one done right now actually
>>741923437
Cheers anon
>>741923586
reminds me of the old Neversoft logo
>>741921752
I'll contribute
>>741924118
Interesting design. Nicely done as well.
>>741921752
I've been interested in getting a half sleeve of sorts. What kind of cost should be expected for something of a good quality on an hourly basis?
>>741922031
Fuck yea
>>741924553
OP here. The cactus tatt I posted cost $175/hour and that is the result of 4 hours of tattooing. I have another 4 hour session scheduled to finish it. So...that should give a decent idea about time given the size/scale and price, although price is going to vary by artist.
>>741923586
Poorly done
>>741924706
thats not bad honestly and informative, appreciated OP
>>741924118
is that on the butt?
>>741921752
>Excuse to not shave the leg
Hur dur it's a cactus
>>741924738
How so?
>>741924792
No problem. As a general piece of advice - be willing to pay more and allocate more time than you expect.
>>741924826
Well, I guess you could look at it that way. However, I got prickly-pear cacti tattooed because it was one of the study organisms for my doctoral dissertation.
>>741924738
I beg to differ. It's just a simple tat
>>741924931
Yea that i expected completely, especially considering i'd like it to be a color piece, its not a big one by any means, but something id like and am willing to spend the time and extra cash to be 100% its what i want.
>>741924297
Thanks fella.
>>741924118
Yep. Asked my artist for a monster flower on my ass because why the hell not. Figure when I finish my back my ass will get tattooed as well.
Got this last night
>>741925069
Good approach. Good luck, anon.
>>741924803
Fucked up the reply...See here:
>>741925095
>>741925152
Thanks bro
>>741925136
That should be on your forehead.
>>741925136
that should go on the forehead though
>>741925219

>>741925136
what >>741925219
>>741925223
said
>>741925136
thats a sad excuse for a tattoo
>>741924543
I'm honestly in love with this.
Tattoos are for faggots!
>>741921752
OP here. Here's another of my tattoos.
>>741924543
best one yet tbh...
>>741925396
Glad you like brother
>>741925414
About time you showed up.
>>741925445
Pretty fucking funny. Well done
>>741925445
Pretty sick. I want to get arm tattoos but I need to get my arms bigger. They're fucking sticks right now
>>741925414
What tattoo do you have then?
>>741925445
And another of mine
>>741925467
Yeah, is it from something or just a chick with an o ring in her mouth?
>>741925445
this is great, especially the eyes are well done
>>741925445
Dig it
>>741925647
Just some girl
>>741925591
Last one
>>741921752
Same artist as here
>>741924118
>>741926034
That some solid color and line work.
>>741925591
Better pic
>>741924915
It's not poorly done
>>741925152
Good luck mate. Hope it all works out for ya.
>>741921752
Bout tp get my first. In my 30s. Getting a memorial teibute tat so nobody will know unless i tell them and gettting archer dicky seamus. Am i ghey?
>>741922168
WAT..??.
>>741926117
Thanks man. Once I finish school the next project will be either finishing my back or one big torso piece.
>>741926829
What?
>>741923586
Is it supposed to be 11 or 10 with the ticks above the eye?
>>741922031
My nigga
The kanji on the pillar says satori "enlightenment" and the chemical formula coming out of dead jesus's 3rd eye is DMT
Its about two weeks old.
>>741927429
Interesting idea for a piece. Not a huge fan of it, though.
>>741927534
Thats cool
>>741926594
I was getting worried it was shit
>>741927131
The ticks are kinda more to draw attention than to mark anything
>>741927429
Cool idea
Any Tool fans?
>>741928226
Probably one of my favourite bands.
>>741928226
I've heard the screaming of the carrots before.
Loosely based off Vermillion 1 and 2
>>741928158
Thanks m8. I know its probably not the best on the art side of things, but it was 300 dollars for a single 8 hour session and both me and the artist (my friend) were high as a kite.
I'll contribute.
>>741921752
Little brother is basically practicing so he can get a tattoo apprenticeship when he graduates high school. He's been doing fruit and shit for a while now and just today I decided to let him practice on me. Linework is shaky but I mean it's not bad for his first tattoo. He's just gotta keep practicing. We're gonna let it heal before he tries fixing it up
>>741929065
I like it. Very simple
>>741929065
I like the design, and if he continues to practice of fruit, I think there's a good chance he can fix it up.
>>741929120
I like these.
>>741925591
Hopefully your tattoo was intentionally supposed to be obad-hai
>>741929315
>obad-hai
It is intentionally supposed to be a greenman.
>>741926156
A sentient cabbage. Nice.
>>741929537
Yep
1of 3 pics I'll post

>It is intentionally supposed to be a
Lol it's the first thing that came to mind. Either way I dig it. Also how hilarious to Tat DnD shit on people without them realising what it is
>>741929738
All 3 pics are skewed because of my camera , it twists photos for some reason
>>741929850
You realize the concept of a greenman is far more ancient than some DnD deity based on it, right?
>fully sleeved to the knuckles
Not posting mine since i'm not an attention whore.
Fuck your gay tattoos.
Fucking hipsters.
>>741930243
The only tattoo you have is a purity ring around your asshole in memory of your alterboy days.
I want a traditional Japanese style dragon or tiger on my ribs or back.
I'm just worried Yakuza are gonna kick my ass.
My fav
My next idea is for a flower with one petal left solidified in amber(my girlfriend's name). Lame or not?
>>741931059
What kind of flower?
>>741931059
If you're being serious, yeah it's retarded to get anything related to your girlfriend. since it's not a name, you could pass it off, but still.
if you say girlfriend but you've been together like 10+ years, then I guess it's fine, but still think about it
>>741931059
You should know better than to tattoo your girlfriends name on your body.
>>741930359
Nah, it's probably a donut...or he's got a slice a pizza where his nip is the pepperoni
>>741931329
Re-read that post and tell me where he said he was planning to get her name tattooed.
>>741931203
Didn't think about that
>>741931210
I don't like tattoos with words. It's been a few years but I'm 29 and she's 35 so it's not exactly a puppy love kinda thing
>>741931059
No names unless blood-related. No excuses
>>741931499
I'd encourage you to think about what flower you want done.
Heres mine /b/
>>741929120
Bery nice
>>741931329
>>741931503
I would never get any lettering on a tattoo let alone some chick's name
>>741931549
It would only be one petal but I guess the significance is there
>>741931654
Good. Feel the same, no lettering whatsoever
>>741931499
I understand that, but the reality is that you could still break up. I'm not saying get married, I'm saying be sure she's the one.
I've been with my girlfriend for 8 years and I just call her my partner since we live together and have been together forever. No plans on marriage or kids, I'm pretty sure she's my soulmate, and I STILL wouldn't get anything related to her (just yet). Being older doesn't exempt you from the rule.
Again, it's your body, I have lots of ink and some of my pieces aren't even meaningful, but just make sure you won't get anything that you could potentially regret. Just think, what if she cheats on me tomorrow? Odds are it won't happen, but y'know.
>>741931626
Oh, hi Captain America
>>741926011
wtf
>>741931899
It's my favorite Rodin sculpture.
>>741926011
chekt
>>741931839
I see where you're coming from. If I did get that it would be more of a gesture of me knowing that I fucked up and I don't have a lot of room for mistakes than anything else. It's extremely risky to say the least
>>741931626
Eh.
>>741931626
murrica
>>741928660
dig it brotha
sure why not
>>741929738
We knew that you were a faggot from the 1st pic, no need for 3.
>>741933631
Interesting design. The red bits make everything pop.
1/5
2/5 (to me you shall be unique in all the world)
3/5
my favorite at least
4/5 (Solarissa)
>>741934026
Nice and clean piece. The wood grain is a nice detail.
5/5 (so fill your heart with what's important and be done with all the rest)
I designed all except the Charmander
>>741934026
Classic, nice
>>741933732
exactly, all credit to the artist who proposed the colour palette and I was sold immediately.
>>741934194
That's a sign of a talented artist. Good choice there, anon.
I'll contribute with mine.
>>741934551
Whale shark?
>>741934596
Yeah, I fucking love them. You're the first one to get it right. Thank you anon.
>>741934865
No problem, and pretty unique choice of animal. I like the color palette, but I've always been concerned that the colors in tattoos of this style will muddy considerably with age.
>>741934026
pics kinda bad but this ones nice as well
>>741935121
Cool mix of classic wolf's head and gypsy tattoos. Cleanly done.
>>741935268
I have a few stupid ass tattoos but most of mine are traditional. I just love the style.
>>741935012
Yeah, I thought about that too. I just hope the colours wouldn't get too muddy. I'm considering another whale shark, but in their natural colour.
>>741935390
I'm also a fan of well-done traditional tattoos, but I've never been able to settle on a design I'd get done.
>>741935448
Keep it out of the sun - that will definitely help keep the colors distinct. Talk with a good artist to hash out a more natural design.
>>741935121
Clean
1/2
>>741935994
Nice color
2/2 sorry for the pic quality
>>741929120
Those devil hands kill it for me
>>741936383
Not something I'd get done, but it is pretty well done.
>>741935121
cheese but my friend was getting something so why not.
>>741935994
Nice
>>741936871
Both of those are nicely done. You've found a good artist, anon.
>>741936871
Those are rad and cleanly done
>>741922031
Where you get the shirt??
I will probably never understand people that treat their bodies with some stupid, meaningless inked shit really. Reminds me of an african tribes that wanted to just scare off enemies.
>>741934551
Another one of mine.
>>741937283
Do you drink alcohol or smoke?
>>741929773
looks shit tbh
>>741925136
Zoom zoom
>>741930243
>i'm not an attention whore.
yeah ok
dont have any tattoos but if i were to get one id want this artist to do it, doesn't matter what it is
>>741938174
>>741938210
>>741929773
Not bad but the
Line work :(
Here's mine
>>741933631
I wanted something like this on my chest
>>741938233
>>741934160
Tits ?
>>741938210
I think this style is called "Trash Polka"
>>741938516
Here's mine
Mine. Wish I had done it on my back since my scars kinda distract from it.
>>741938675
Yoooooooooooooo. Nice
>>741921752
got this one yesterday
>>741938656
Correct, anon.
>>741938656
Yea, the guys name that did all these is Xoil. Just never seen anything like it
>>741938675
This is very nice.
>>741938773
I like it.
>>741939105
That's a pretty sizeable piece. How many hours?
>>741938773
Really liking these clean traditional tattoos
>>741939186
About 4 hours
>>741921752
Thoughts on blackout tattoos?
>>741931626
'Murica! Fuck yeah! You must feel so privileged to live in the land of the free, you you patriot you. Fuck yeah!USA!USA!
>>741939402
I think they can look fantastic. I especially like how white ink can be used on top of the heavy black sections. But, it's more extreme than what I will probably ever get done. That's some serious dedication and time in a chair.
>>741939286
>>741938960
Here's another my guy did. He was running a deal a few weeks ago where you pay $40 and he gives you a token to a gumball machine with a random tattoo that he drew up. He specializes in traditional and owns a primarily traditional shop.
>>741939628
Cool idea to drum up some business. He does nice work, so you're pretty lucky.
>>741939756
thanks! I tipped him $50 the first time and he's been super generous on prices since then. Did the cactus tattoo for $80
>>741939840
I've also found that tipping is a great way to establish a working relationship with an artist whose work you like. Like you said - they'll cut you a break on future pieces.
Made sure the "artist" was high, drunk, had the flu, and was passing out. He was ashamed.
>>741939609
Yeah they can look great if done tastefully. Been wanting to get a 3/4 sleeve done. Something like attached pic.
Eat me ;)
>>741940644
>>741939402
this is some dumb shit thats gonna make you look like that gay from 21 pilots or some shit. I guess it would MAYBE look alright in small doses but more than likely people will think you are last resort covering up a shit tattoo
>>741925445
Your asshole looks like an armpit faggot
>>741941554
OK. That is my armpit.
Anyone have a foot tattoo? Wanna get one on the top of my left foot. Heard the pain is bad
Only tat i have atm
My tattoo i got half a year ago, really happy with it.
My first one. Got it a year ago.
>>741941659
I would say that too if my ass looked like that.
>>741942017
Here's my other professionally done one. My sister drew it on a guitar for me before she passed away. Decided to get it for her
>>741941965
That's really nice looking. Great fine-line detail.
>>741941659
How do you even get your right leg that far up, did are you a former Russian gymnast fag or something?
>>741942085
Thanks! I got it touched up a bit after it healed so its even better now.
>>741941965
Well done mate
I got a triforce
>>741942256
Black marker force
>>741942269
Cover up
>>741942305
What was under it?
>>741942305
>covers shitty artwork with shitty artwork. Can't polish a turd
>>741942305
bummer bro. how you going to cover up the coverup?
>>741942298
Done by hand and needle ;)
>>741942575
Edgy
>>741942376
>>741942753
Psoriasis was under it
>>741928226
This is necessary
>>741942436
>>741942535
Looks pretty good to me.
>>741942753
Shia?
>>741942305
I like it.
>>741942789

I wish
That's what happens when the hospital treats an allergic reaction with antibiotics for a month.
>>741933908
Someones a fatty
>>741922031
Sick
>>741942305
Nice cover up man. Good idea to go with a bird and incorporate the wing.
>>741940899
Nice, I have that as a patch
>>741928876
One way or another, given your age, you are honestly scum.
>>741929602
>>741929660
>>741929738
Reminds me of that wanker who'd draw on his arm in History lessons. Thing is though, at the end of the day, he could wash his idiocy away..
>>741929773
Well at least it's not a cliché... Oh.....
Well, I mean at least the execution isn't terrib.... Oh....
>>741930554
Now THAT'S more like it..
>>741934160
>I designed all..
Well you'd never guess, they look so professional
>>741922031
I love you
>>741936383
What's the betting this cunt can't play more than a few chords but owns over 5 guitars? 3/1?
We like Steven Universe.
>>741940644
It would be acceptable if you were a burn victim or something, otherwise it looks bad
I would like to get a tatoo but i don't know what design i should get. Maybe you can help?
something about treason and things like that. I thought of something related about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apate_(deity) but i can't find any stuff tatoo-worth about her.
I would like also a spot visible to me, like arm/forearm, maybe pectorals?
>>741944819
most retarded shit ive seen in a long time. rethink your life dumbass. i really hope this is bait
>>741923586
Lines are bumpy and not curved enough.
It doesn't look that bad, until you get close.
>>741924118
It's really hard to tell whats going on here.
Luckily it's on your ass.
>>741924543
It didn't need that much black.
Also, why does she look like Lady Gaga?
>>741925136
The guy can't pull a straight line.
>>741925445
Poor shading, poor lining.
Pretty amateur. Second one is even worse.
And third one has it's anatomy busted.
>>741928226
Design is shit, but it's well done.
>>741929120
Don't hire an artist who doesn't know how to draw hands.
>>741933631
Looks like a cover up.
>>741933845
Fetus charmander?
Bumpy lines, you also didn't need that background.
>>741934026
This one is great.
>>741939402
Why do people want to be niggers?
