Pictures of awesome shit.
That’s a tattoo? Personally that is the opposite of awesome in my book unless awesome means “something incredibly obvious and somewhat ugly that I have intentionally put on my skin for the rest of my life that will cause people to stare at me and question my choices in life.”
Huh? beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so even though I think the artwork is beautiful, I accept that not everyone shares my taste - but how is it by any means “obvious”? I’d say, as far as tattoos go, it’s the exact opposite of “obvious”.
The size and intensity of the tattoo limits what she can wear to what events. I.E. any office jobs she has to wear full shirts even in summer.
I had a mate who had a large tattoo on the underside on his forearm and had to wear long sleeve shirts in summer to a retail job :(

Completely understand Chucky, I don’t really go in for tattoo’s much therefor few and far between for me to see one that I like, that one is like a “modern art” take on a tattoo, basically combining two things I don’t like much. For me two wrongs dont make a right, in this case the result is similar to that which might be achieved by leaving a canvas underneath a banana lounge upon which a woman is undergoing an emergency C section and then calling the result art.
As far as being obvious is concerned, there is a massive amount of clothing styles she won’t be able to wear if she wishes for said art to remain unseen.
Ah, of course! My bad - I misunderstood your use of the word “obvious”. You’re absolutely right - and not only clothing “styles”, but colours too.
I’m not much of a fan of tattoos either - well, the usual kind anyway. I just appreciate the “body as a canvas” type thing, when either the artwork itself would look great framed on a wall, and/or it merges so well with the body it’s applied to.
wow I am no tattoo fan either but that one ^^ is incredible! appeals to the geek in me, big time. Is amazing to look at, but I’d never want it on myself or anyone else I really cared about.

I get that you wouldnt get it, but i dont understand your reasoning for the point in bold.
P.S. You can tell by the variances in skin tone (normal skin tone on the left to the pale almost porcelain white colour on the middle/right) that it is a photoshop
The skin tone is fairly accurate - the positioning of the light source explains the colour variance.
However, there’s other indicators that it may be Photoshopped.
The peeling away the layers tattoo is impressive, if it was real I’m not sure on what its trying to say in itself or about the owner?

I’m with cords. I can appreciate the artwork of a tattoo but I would never have one, nor want someone I care about to have certain ones. I’ve had girlfriends with tat’s but I’ve never liked them.
Tattoos to me are associated with the wrong type of people - I’m not going to list them as people will take offense. That’s just how I was raised and how I saw them growing up. Of course it doesn’t make it correct.
I don’t have anything that important in my life that I want to draw on myself and have it last forever.
I agree with both Sam and TJ’s points.
My husband has 3 tattoos. Only one that he has gotten since he’s been with me, and that was pretty early on and we were in different countries.
He has one on his upper right arm and whenever I look at it, I just wish it looked nice like his other, normal, blank arm looks. Also, it has a skull and bats on it, the kind of thing that freaked me out as a kid & the kind of thing that I associated with the kind of people that Sam was referring to. I know that is my own judgement and my husband is a case in point of that not being true, but I can’t help that association - as with Sam, its just how I grew up and in some senses, I still agree. The fact that they seem to be in fashion at the moment turns me off them even more.
He has another one that takes up the bottom third of his back, with all the different boards from his favourite board sports (skateboard, longboard skateboard, snowboard, wakeboard and surfboard). He got a tattoo artist friend to do it for cheap and the lines aren’t even any good….PLUS he never sees it/forgets he even has it half the time & I’m the one who has to look at it! Again - would prefer it blank!
He has another on his lower leg & I don’t mind that one, although in truth I’d prefer it blank as well.
TJ’s point is part of it, too. I’m not really wishing to offend anybody here, as they are pretty common - but dedication tattoos to people who have died don’t make sense to me. I stress that this is just to me & just cos I think it doesn’t make it right. I’ve seen it a squillion times on miami ink, when people say “they want a tattoo to remember so-and-so by”. All I can think is “why do you need a tattoo to help you remember them? surely if they were that important, you would remember them anyway?”
Why the need to broadcast everything that is so important to you?
There is gonna be so many old, gross looking bogans in 30-40 years!
Having said all of that - there are some that really are amazing art & I admire the tattoo artists a lot…I just prefer them not to practise on me and mine…
the funny thing about tattoo’s is that people that have them don’t judge people that don’t, but people that don’t seem to always judge people that do.
Personally i couldn’t care what someone thinks of tattoos, they are far to personal to let someone else’s opinion effect me. i have one sleeve on one arm, i ve stated my second sleeve i have a leg sleeve in progress my ribs are done my back is done you could say I’m pretty heavily inked hahaha
i respect why people don’t like them and find it hard to understand why people do it, but like all things you will never truly understand until you have experienced the art of tattoo.
Peace
Oh and chucky i think those flowers look dope!!!!

yay skulls! i got some and so does the missus. tattoos are a funny subject
