Looking for feedback:
I'm looking to get a new piece on my Irish heritage. It's always been a major part of my family since my parents and grandparents came immigrated here. Problem is, every white guy in America has all the cultural symbols of the island already. Triskels, knots, crosses etc are all being used by frat boys with varying degrees of ancestry. Any suggestions on something that won't lump me in with the people who are conveniently Irish one St. Patrick's Day?

I dunno mate what county are your family from pick a coat of arms representing that or something.
A better idea would be getting an irish landmark or part of the landscape so it's not easily identified as irish unless you choose to mention it.
>>
>>12422477
Getting your family's coat of arms would be cool. I'd get mine but it has big sections of black that don't transfer to a tattoo well

Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown looks okay but obviously it depends on where you're from and it would probanly be better if you used the coat as inspiration and not just tattoo the entire thing.
>>
>>12422846
That family coat of arms thing is mostly bullshit for tourists mate, like my family name has either Norman, English or Scotish roots so it could be either ones coat of arms so you really need to research it.
I mostly see the coat for the English family despite mine being the Scots so you can't fuck about lad.

I wanna get a kingdom hearts tattoo
I've love the franchise for a long ass time and I get feels whenever I hear the music
For a long time Ive been seeing the cringey ass keyblade tats turned me off for a while but now I've been thinking about less explicitly cringe things
What if I got a sea salt ice cream or a paupu fruit tattoo
It would obviously be super tiny and subtle
Idk
Also another idea I had for a video game tat would be a darksign from.dark souls. Idk if I'll.ever do it but any thoughts?

I'd follow your intuition on that. I typically find that video game tattoos are best when they aren't explicit iconography (like zelda triforces, blah) but when they reflect something poignant and cute and well designed from within game. I like both your ideas.

I have a question

what's everybody's opinions about tattoos where it's the first part of a famous quote, but it cuts off so then you can just mentally put the rest of it there?

for example, i really like the quote in pic related, and it's relevant because ive spent the last few years getting in way better shape, wanna pursue an ideal physical stature, etc. etc.

now, im not a big fan of wordy tattoos, especially when they're quotes, but what about getting just "what a disgrace it is..." as a tattoo somewhere, so it's like a mantra/reminder almost

From Xenophon's Memorabilia

>[3.12.8] Besides, it is a disgrace to grow old through sheer carelessness before seeing what manner of man you may become by developing your bodily strength and beauty to their highest limit.

Of course, there is no record from Socrates himself because he didn't write anything. So yeah you're dumb and a retard and stupid and a know it all pretending to be cool by acting like you know more than other people when the truth is you don't know shit
>>
>>12429846
Forgot to quote the part where the sentence was attributed to Socrates but I guess you can look that up yourself. Maybe it could be good for you to actually read a book.
Where did you even get the information that it was a fake quote? Seems like the kind of shit reddit may say to pretend they are so intelligent by finding flaws in others, while at the same time being oblivious to the fact that they ain't that smart.

Getting a tattoo guide for beginners

A tattoo artist will charge you one of two ways:

1. Charge per hour
2. Charge per design

If you bring a design that you have already to the artist, The artist will charge you per hour.

If the artist has designed a tattoo for you, or you are choosing one of their flash designs (pre-drawn designs in an artists folio), they will usually set a pre determined price based on the size of the tattoo and how complex the design is.

A good tattoo artist without an overinflated ego will usually between $150-200 per hour.

There are exceptions to the rule. Celebrity artists charge a lot more. Bang bang studio in NY charges $400 an hour. The owner himself tattooes but at a minimum cost of $1k. They have good artists, but there are artists just as good if not better that charge half the price.
Any good artist without an over inflated ego will charge you between $150-200 dollars per hour. They cater to tattooing celebrities and some of their egos are extremely inflated.

I myself have 10 tattoos and have spent $3500 on them. Most expensive was $1000, cheapest was $50.

My tips to you:

Be as careful in protecting tattoo for two whole weeks after getting it. Do not expose it to any sunlight, every second it is exposed it is damaged. It is essentially an open wound. .


How to make your new tattoo stay looking crisp and prevent fading?

Comes down to three things

Two weeks healing 30%
Tattoo artist skill level 30%
Your skin and health 20%

Some peoples skin naturally hold ink better than others.

What tattoo to get:

The current trend in tattooing is small, realistic and dainty tattoos, or photo realistic paintings that look extremely impressive in photos online. However, they all turn to shit.

Even two of the best artists in the world who do these tattoos, dan grillo and anil gupta admit that these tattoos might last only a year, and serves a main purpose of taking photos to look pretty online.

If you want a tattoo to last, put a black outline around it. Ink spreads over time, and causes the image to distort. Many realistic tattoos that look like paintings have no outline, and turn to shit and lose their shape.

If there's a black line around it, the ink will still spread but the line expands too, retaining its structure .

Many people argue that you can just go for a touch up. You can only do maybe 4-5 touch ups because your skin is torn even further ever time and existing scar tissue can be reopened. If you get it done right the first time and heal it, you'll only need a touch up every 6 years, and then you'll be too old to care

I could go on but if you want a tattoo that lasts, find an artist online (have to admit that Instagram is the best way these days )

look for: photos of healed tattoos and photos of fresh tattoos without stupid filters applied to make it look better.

The number of followers doesn't mean an artist is better. It just means their designs are more popular. Find the right artist for your tattoo, even if you have to travel to get it.

So would this age poorly : >>12428920 ?

Thanks for being so helpful by the way.

There is a part of me that feels guilty going to good tattoo artists to put the stupid shit I want on but I want the stupid shit to not be botched.

After a tattoo is freshly applied should I just wear long sleeve all the time then as it heals?
>>
>>12429911
The wolf itself will last if it's healed well and good artist. The red flame detail will be the first to fade but it won't matter too much as it's not the centrepiece of the tattoo

Wear sleeves that aren't tight if you go outside when it's sunny.

At home I expose it to let it breathe as much as possible.

Make sure you have clean bedsheets and don't sleep with a pet. I like to hang a loose bandage around it for the first week because I roll in my sleep

What do you guys think about Owl tattoos? I'm thinking about getting something like pic related on my upper arm.

Honestly that quote is pure cringe. It's a nice sentiment when you're working out and getting in shape, but eventually when you realize that you were "that gym douche that never stopped talking about it", all you will think abut is how you spammed this quote on every social media bio you wrote.

Once you finish getting in shape, just live life for a few years and then look back on the jackass you were when you were still "forging" yourself, and you'll understand.

Getting tattoos with meaning are for faggots. Get something sick like a flaming skull.

bad idea, but I guess if you really wanted a symbol from a mass murderer on your body, disguising it as a meme is the way to go.

terrible placement also.

Thinking about getting Bacon's study after velázquez's portrait of pope innocent x on my forearm in full color. How hard is it for a tattoo artist to recreate this style with just a needle gun?

There are artists who could do that: Steve butcher, Matt Jordan, Benjamin Laukis, Nikko hurtado

They are the more relatively well known ones

The face is extremely minute and if you want a tattoo that will last, then don't get it in colour if you want t in your forearm. Any sun exposure will start fading, colour ink fades faster too. A tattoo like that would turn to shit in an area exposed to sunlight quickly. You could get touchups but most skin can only be touched up 3-4 times in a lifetime before it becomes too torn and old and won't hold the ink properly anymore. If you've ever seen pictures of an older person getting tattooed, it never turns out looking as good as on a young person.
My recommendation:

Get it full scale as a whole back piece in colour

Or

Have an experienced artist redraw it into an image rather than a painting , that's what my artist did with the Picasso guernica I have, it's not the full painting as the real painting is 7 metres long

* as a large piece on your back, or redrawn by artist for your forearm

Colour on your back Would take around 9-10 hours and cost you anywhere between $1000-$1500 with a good artist
