Tattoo thread?
I haven't seen one of these in a long while.
Most of my tattoos are flowers
Mine are Harry Potter related
>>24385084
One LOTR piece too though
>>24385084
That is awesome. I've always wanted to get hedwig tattooed
I also just got this maneki neko tattoo a week ago. Still healing
>>24385096
I'm working on a GO sleeve I'm torn between getting Hedwig or Sirius on my tricep area o.o
>>24385105
HP not Go..... grumble grumble autocorrect
>>24385105
I'm partial to owls but a Sirius portrait would be bad ass!
>>24385115
Haha exact confliction I have, Sirius is my favourite character, but Hedwig would make for a really beautiful piece o.o
>>24385119
So many choices!
>>24385119
I've always wanted a dementor but can't imagine how an artist would even start with that one
>>24385125
If you have have good artist that could be a really badass tattoo
Hope some of you like mine
>>24385239
>>24385242
>>24385103
aww! Ive been wanting a maneki neko tattoo for awhile now
>>24385239
>>24385242
>>24385244
those are really amazing
>>24385078
cute
>>24385440
Oh and here's mine
>>24385441
I recognize this shite tattoo
<3 ;*
>>24385446
y-you're a shite tattoo
>>24385449
I'll be your shite tattoo :*
Small stick & poke on my wrist too
>want a tattoo
>skinny as fuck arms and i hate my body
I need canvas space!
>>24385482
this desu, I want one on the inside of my forearm but it's too tiny to fit much
So far the only one, already know what to get next but need some extra $$$
>>24385735
cute :3
>>24385803
Thanks! A lot of people think its cringy, but the poem means a lot to me and I have always really liked the art.
I've got a few, but this recent one is by far my favourite.
>>24385078
Can't go wrong with well done flowers
>>24385084
Nice!
>>24385086
I'd love some elven script, but I wouldn't know what to get.
>>24385724
Oh I'm quite fond of this one.
>>24385818
What's the poem, anon?
>>24385441
you sexy bitch i love you!
Can this count?
This one here is the only tattoo that I have, but it's right over my heart. Dedicated to my dog Lucy, who I loved dearly.
I know it's a little rough at points but I haven't had the money to get it touched up. also the spacing on the paw, pads is completely natural as that was taken from an ink stamp of Lucy's paw.
some amazing work in this thread too! Keep it up. I can't wait to get more myself.
>>24386003
Oops
>>24385078
>>24385103
These are super cute!
>>24385735
Looks very sweet, curious about the poem now, even if the drawings seem familiar a bit. Care to share?
>>24385888
Thank you! Your artist is really skilled with colors i can tell
>>24386006
nice tattoo. i had a dog named lucy that was born in ´98 and died in ´08 too, it was a münsterlander. creepy right?
I've got 8 bit Megaman on my forearm.
>>24386003
>>24386081
I have a dog named Lucy as well. Shih tzu though.
>>24386029
I think it's Shel Silverstein where the sidewalk ends
>>24386081
>>24386105
This is a weird coincidence. Lucy is a good name though. You both have excellent taste.
This is my latest and gr8est. Halfway done though, gotta get the body of a kraken underneath the waves in a few weeks.
>>24386188
Here she is. I named her after Lucille Ball
>>24386207
That is so fucking basic. You must be a hipster. Still a good tattoo and I like the kraken idea. Get it on your dick though so you can yell "Release the kraken! " before sex.
>>24385078
I've got a bunch but these are my most recent. I don't plan on getting any more though because I'd rather spend money on other things these days
>>24386227
There are flower and harry potter tattoos in here, and you're gonna call out the ship getting attacked by a kraken basic? It's even funnier that it's coming from someone with a mega man tattoo.
>>24386006
Was it not possible for you to merely have fond memories of Lucy, rather than desecrate yourself in her name?
"Don't desecrate yourself in my name", woofs Lucy from beyond the grave.
Zombie from Walking Dead coz I'm obsessed with it.
>>24386305
But will you still be obsessed with it in 20 years, or will you instead be obsessed with getting rid of that tattoo?
>>24386294
This is hilarious
>>24386279
Personally I find the idea of the dick kraken to be hilarious, but I don't think there's anything basic about doing something that makes you happy. Sounds sick.
I only have two tattoos and one of them is this.
Here is mine, not complete. Will be the whole arm. On the inside arm is the crest of hyrule
>>24386000
trips show that ass
>>24386685
Du bist auch Deutsch? Ich liebe Dich
>>24385244
they're great. I don't think the pics do them justice, though. You've obviously got a brilliant tattooist.
>>24385888
>>24386029
Poem OP here. Switched to desktop.
>>24385724
I really like this. Any significance to you?
>>24386894
Solid art, I can dig it.
>>24385078
Flowers are rad
>>24387224
>those lines
ughh..
>>24387180
Really cute poem indeed!
I chose a pinecone to represent the neighborhood I have lived most of my life, which name is El Pinar (spanish for Pinewoods i guess).
It's a really chill beach community and many people I love live around here :)
>>24386000
I think I love you.
>>24386894
you bummed 2012 was a bust?
Just got this one done back at the end of July. The picture was right when it was finished
>>24387989
Pretty nice anon, digging it
>>24388055
Thanks man! It was my first one. I'm thinking of keeping with the time theme on that arm and get more stuff like a grandfather clock, a stopwatch, maybe even a sundial, and then on the other arm have a space theme. Starting from the wrist do a night time forest up into the moon around my mid arm, and then behind the moon explode into the stars and galaxy
>>24388076
Sounds pretty good. I'd say stick with the same artist if you can, at least for each arm, but otherwise have fun coloring that canvas!
>>24388091
I would if I could, but I got this one back in Arizona, and I've moved all the way out to California now. He did recommend to me a friend of his that does work in Valejo however, so I may hit him up and see what he can do
Am I a pretty girl?
Getting ready to start filling in this namakubi and ghost girl from one of my favorite edo era prints.
>>24388142
Good taste. I like you.
>>24388142
Some detail stuff if anybody is into classical japanese stuff. Have since added some windbars and shoulder cap filler.
My stuff. Few posts.
>>24388599
>>24388604
>>24388599
I really like the strong lining around the flowers. The use of colour is pretty incredible too. Haven't seen many artists who can do that water colour type effect.
>>24388599
Last one.
>>24388612
Thank you.
Here is artist ig: https://www.instagram.com/sed_tattoo_art/
>>24388608

>>24388608
Beautiful everything
>>24388639
Thank you <3
>>24385078
>>24385103

>>24385086

>>24385888

>>24386000
i luv floral designs aw
>>24386207
also like dis because nautical tattoos r cool idc if they're generic
>>24388599
jealous af of the sleeve
these r what i have so far
I have had this on my sternum about 5 years.
I picked a cicada because its the sound of darkness. I took long night walks due to insomnia when I was a teenager. The cicada originates as a nymphs underground for around 17 years. I got it mostly to commemorate those meditations I did with their ambiance.
Here´s mine.. my first one, but still in progress.
Style is called "Realistic Trash Polka".
>>24388604
>>24388613
Loving these
It's the album art for Mend, Move On by Trophy Eyes because the entire album is a fucking banger
>>24389424
Boiiiii etching is god tier in my book, absolutely love your piece!
Also, what do they play? Judging by the name and art I'm hoping is something like indie folk and I'm really into that. Guess I'll check em out!
mine :)
>>24386236
>getting low quality ink done because it only cost you 13
>>24389424
Trophy Eyes are breddy gud, was gonna see them a year or 2 ago but they were supporting Neck Deep and they can fuck off
Not mine, I just want to talk about parents that force babies to get a tattoo. I would utterly refuse to make a tattoo on a baby
>>24390110
Photo looks really fake
Anyways I've heard of that. Parents and so called "artists" that engage in this kind of abomination should go to jail honestly.
pic doesn't really do it justice
>>24390458
Looks pretty decent. Personally, would have included dotwork but that's just me.
Metal related
>>24390554
Black Sabbath and Motorhead nice!!
>>24390110
Tattoo guns usually work better than the end of a whisk.
>>24390458
No offense but I've seen this same concept done way better
>>24390808
Solid colors, i like it. Wish you had a better picture where i could tell more of the design
>>24390821
the design is where it falls short
it doesnt really fall into any kind of "tattoo genre"
I got a bunch of random shit because I was young and stupid, and my artist tied it all together the best he could
if i could go back and do it all over i would
Those were the stages of my tattoo the colored is obviously what I ended up with I've always been torn between the shaded and colored I love the colored cause not many people have color as far as what I see but I feel like the shaded looks better open to opinions would greatly be appreciated :)
>>24387224
Dodgy photo but I've also got this semi-matching one on the other arm, among a load of others
>>24390458
HAHAHA DAVID?
While I can appreciate the artistry involved in some tattoos, the fact that they get old, faded, and outdated as fuck in just a couple years, really prevents me from seriously thinking about getting one.
Someone has to be trying to develop inks that can be very easily/cheaply erased from the skin.
>>24391204
>Someone has to be trying to develop inks that can be very easily/cheaply erased from the skin.
I don't think I'd even want that. I certainly understand the thought though, tattoos are one of the worst investments out there.
>>24391204
They last more than a few years. I've got tattoos that are 4 or so years old that look as fresh as tattoos a couple of months old.
There's an old guy that comes into my local pub covered in tattoos that are 40+ years old and sure they're faded and blurry, but then everyone looks like shit at that age. Personally I really like the way they look when they're old, but he could easily get them touched up if he didn't. And tattoo machines and inks have come on a long way so mine will be lasting than his did
>>24388700
I know one o the premier cicada biologists iv the world. he has a tattoo like this on his left forearm.
One of mine
>>24391676
Another
>>24391681
Another piece

This is over a decade old
>>24385476
