General discussion of tattoo ideas and inspiration

lines that delicate/close together are gonna look like shit as they age

Inb4 that all caps arabic guy

I wanna get a forget-me-not flowers tattoo on forearm but I can't decide on design or style. I was thinking on something like picture related, albeit I bit more elaborate. Thoughts?

Haha minimalism, am I right? :^)

...

...

...

If I found a good artist, would this be doable with some modifications ofc?

what do the letters mean?

means "I suck dik" in Japanese

Reposting mine from previous bread.

Where would you get it?

I need some advice on how to cover up these shitty couples tattoos I got with my cheating Ex-fiance.

It's hard trying to find a solid enough image that would work at that location.

Pls help

kek

I like him

Can't decide on right shoulder or left forearm

go talk with a tattoo artists you specializes in coverups

First google search result. Come on user

>The fingers spell out “IC XC”, a widely used four letter abbreviation of the Greek for Jesus (IHCOYC) Christ (XPICTOC). It is by the name of Jesus that we are saved and receive blessings: “At the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;”

I actually got a tattoo of this cause I really liked the way it looks

Holy shit a god tattoo thread
That sucks dude, those are kind of dope but I can fully understand wanting to cover them. Like the other guy said, talk to a specialist

don't do tattoo artist are usually good at the tattoo part and pretty bad at the artist part.

...

get laser removal, worth the money

Considering that but covering it up would be about 1/4 of the price even for a good artist, and I feel like I'd just get more tattoos in that area anyway.

Currently thinking about matching ravens on both arms, or a large snake with a dagger through the head, for the traditional symbolism.

Thinking about getting an Arbok tattoo with a similar art style to this. Haven't gotten anything drawn up yet though

maybe if it was just the hand and moon

lol

:^)

This is an artist I'm thinking about commisioning from in the future

not bad, I also really like that source picture as well

Could always do a black band.

I got this tat for my bud's birthday. What do yall think?

you're trying to hard to bait, thats what I think of it

I want a triangle tattoo, have wanted one since I was 13, and tell myself every week since turning 18 that I'm gonna finally go get it over my breast, but right before I make the drive to the tattoo parlour I start to tell myself that nobody will like it and it will only make people cringe, despite how badly i want it.

So I wanted to get this on my wrist at the beginning of the year but they said the details in the faces would be too small and could possibly bleed together.

Thinking about getting it without the faces. What do you guys think?

Made this to help visualize it.

Turn it into an eyeball

Its really easy to cover, you don't even have to use laser. Just cover with some big japanese style tattoo.

Uh. No.

Why wrist?

Why not? Bicep is too corny of a tattoo placement. Forearm would make it really big, like double the size I want. Anywhere else and I wouldn't be able to see it.

name?

Triangle is the alchemical symbol for fire. If you want you can also tell people its a delta which in math/physics means change. I got a snp of some triangles. Theyre pretty bad and cringy but i like em

Whoa, i really like those a lot! My friend circle and family are really judgemental about tattoos and tell me that the only reason I want the one that I want is to copy this guy from Shameless, because he just so happened to get it but I've never even seen the show, and even asked my dad when i was 13 if I could get it. They already know the reason I want it is for no reason in particular, i just like the minimal design.
>pic related is exact tattoo i wanted, though

I got this quote from the series Over The Garden Wall

rly i dont

Does anyone else think effay has the shittiest taste in tattoos?

i like it without the face but i think it looks good, careful with he colors tho

His instagram handels are @chella.man and @chellamanart

Just get it. Chances are you arent in many situations where you have to be shirtless. If you have to have it exposed just dont give a fuck and they'll get over it. I cant imagine someone would stop being friends w you over a fucking triangle. You're an adult in a free world, do what makes you feel comfortable

>be careful with the colors
What do you mean?

a good artist can do this without it bleeding together.

I plan on getting a few of these tattooed (It is a flash sheet I created by putting together works from various artists)

Even if it doesn't bleed together now, it can over time. Look at an old person's tattoos.

yeah i agree, but tattooing has come a long way in the last few decades

New machinery with thinner needles, new vegan ink that lasts longer in the skin and new tattooing techniques means that it could well be possible

I guess we will have to wait 10-20 years from now to see what aged modern tattoos look like

normies BTFO

Wow I want one of these, they look nice

...

Don't know if you are still around.
Looks light enough in the picture, I'd consider a couple round of laser tattoo removal before getting a cover up.

Im thinking about getting the lines covered up since they didnt come out well, plus I need to get a touch up.

This is awesome but ican't say I'm a fan of the border. Is there a practical reason for it?

DAE effay bad taste XD

I actually got the same tattoo but without the border

are colored tattoo Veeky Forums?

Pretty hard to do tattoos on wrists, user. they'll usually have to wrap or will alter and look really bad. you move your wrist a lot so the skin will stretch or the tattoo won't stay how you like it. i'd go for your forearm if possible. Also wrists are the most painful place to get them for sure.

>Also wrists are the most painful place to get them for sure.

Got an acquaintance who's tattooed 99% of his body, and this subject comes up pretty much every time he introduces himself to someone new.
He says forehead and penis head are the worst by far, but the worst normies will experience is probably ribs.

Hmm. Okay. I did consider the forearm at one point but this was supposed to be my first tattoo and I went in telling myself I wouldn't let them talking me into getting it bigger/in a different spot.

As far as pain goes I don't really care, at least if I went to get another, I'd know it couldn't be any worse. My buddy said the yellow parts would be brutal though cause they'd have to go over it 5-6+ times in order for it to be visible lol

Rate my tattoo

I find that one so cool, but I dont thing any of these would look cool if was alone

effay

I'm thinking of getting six bars across the back of my left forearm as a subtle allusion to the cover of Abbey Road. I already have these. I also want to get a garland of roses around my right wrist in the near future. I want my entire left arm to be black ink and my right to be colour.

*bold, black bars
Sorry, I'm a bit stoned at the moment.
My artist does a heavy black. Painful but worth it.

What part of OTGW is that from?

dude in my town just did this.

My roommate just picked up a tattoo kit on Amazon. He's a good artist and has done a few tattoos before, and would be willing to give me a free tattoo if I am willing to be "practiced' on. Is this a terrible idea? Or is it maximum Veeky Forums to get tatted by your roommate on a whim?

Depends on how his previous tattoos look. Bad decisions are effay as fuck though so go ahead either way

still you replied, baited son

His sketchbook is mostly like, punk band logos. I kinda wanted to get a text tattoo anyways so i think it's ideal.

>he's a good artist
>his sketchbook is mostly punk band logos

tattoo ideas: hope I can inspire some folks

I get these picks from The Internet Book Archive on flickr, crazy enormous library of pictures from books dating back to before the first millenia

I collect them primarily for drawing ideas/ reference

Why get an album tattoo? Do you like it that much?

I dig it. great show

why do I see this brand all over china pls explain

china is tired of communism, so now we can see fascist ideas start to rise... /s

I do. Plus I like the image itself, so I'll never not like the tattoo.
