Tattoo general

What does Veeky Forums think of my tattoo, it's still in progress, hurts more than I thought but fuck, the pain gave me such I rush I hit a new PR on bench 225x4

>2017
>getting tattoos

for once I agree with the younger generation (non millenials) in their view that tattoos aren't cool anymore

Is this a joke?

That tattoo looks stupid.

Honestly? Not trying to troll either.

Placement isn't that great.

Line work is absolute shit.

Rose does not work in this context at all and looks goofy with that weird leaf placed where it is. Could have hid it behind the visor to add dimension.

Also the cross is highly inconsistent. Top is longer than the bottom. Dots all over the place. No symmetry.

Dude it's a pretty jacked tattoo and it's a big one....Sorry bro

Pay more for your next one

> 1999+18
> Not going to quality artists

Why do people do this?

i have no fucking idea i wonder the same thing

why the fuck get something thats gonna be ON you forever from a shit artist

i wouldnt frame art from a shitty artist and put it in my house and i sure as fuck wouldnt put it on me permanently

That should of went on the arm

Tattoos used to be cool. Like when the only people who had them were outlaw bikers, sailors, and your crusty old grandpa who was a Marine Raider in WW2 and still refuses to buy Japanese products.

Cut to modern times: tattoos are now for idiotic women and failing nu-males who need to cargo cult masculinity due to the cognitivr dissonance created in their vacuous skulls everytime they watch a BLACKED.com on pornhub.

>Getting a tat on your chest where it will definitely get stretched if you continue lifting
>getting a tat from a cheap artist
>getting a tat and then immediately going an exercising, rather than taking the recommended time for the tat to heal and not get damaged
Boy you are a special kind of stupid.

I think it looks pretty good

lmao are you a child?

>2017
>having essentially a face tattoo a face's length from one's face
>cheekie knight giggler boobie jiggler

Looks fucking stupid.

Honest opinion? It's gay by its own. I can see a Sgt. Pepper's Band tattoo thing around it.

You don't put ideologies, or wishful ideologies, as tattoos. You find beautiful forms of animals or gods or demons or spirits. Having a gay knight helm...is kinda gay.

But since you already have it, expand it to a Sgt. Pepper's band thing.

Genuinely curious as to how you think getting a tattoo is caused by cognitive dissonance

Fuck! Thats soms great work... looks like a fucking photo

Tattoos of animals are almost always cringeable on males (all female tattoos are cringeable because most females have no convictions worthy enough to engrave upon their flesh)

OP your tattoo could be good but the helmet by itself is kind of gay. It should be a part of something bigger, like maybe the helmet is lying on the ground in the middle of a smoking battlefield or some shit. I just made that up off the cuff but you get my point

Veeky Forums hates tattoos because the chads that fuck their oneitis have shitty tattoos and therefore all tattoos are bad and all people who have them are stupid

Yo op, where are your nipples?

>Tattoos of animals are almost always cringeable on males (all female tattoos are cringeable because most females have no convictions worthy enough to engrave upon their flesh)

Ehhh. I like tattoos of Koi. And if a woman has a tattoo on her neck, she's either a ho or a prostitute.

now you must crusade and liberate the holy land or you will look like a poser.
good luck and deus vult!

CONT

Exhibit A in support of "Neck Tattoos = ho 4 sho"

I was thinking in doing a tatoo in my right chest of a japanese kanji, with a meaning.
Am I doing good?
Or you got better cool tatoo ideas?

So, i was thinking of getting a "quote" tattoo, but instead of the full quote it would just be the first few words. Think of it serving as a reminder of the full quote, like a mantra

specifically, i was thinking of getting "what a disgrace it is..." somewhere. from this socrates quote

thoughts?

It's a little bit cliche but if you get a good artists im sure it could look neat. what Kanji is it?

If you like it then its good.

anybody?

How old are you?
How long has this quote resonated with you?
Does the idea appeal because it seems 'cool'?

If you're under 22, if the idea is something you've only had on your mind for 2 years or less or if you think it'd be "cool"/"deep" then personally I think you will regret it.
Also, if the quote means that much to you why do you need it on you, it should be resonating in your head without the need for a reminder.

Honestly to me the idea sounds bad mate, you will have an inspiration quote that is half finished written on you permanently.... Almost like you are accepting that it only half motivates you/you're only partly behind it, but it's there permanently to remind you that you half ass jobs.

Your call, your body

Its not even historically accurate.

Make it in old Greek if you absolutely have to.

These tatoos will look like absolute shit in a decade.
At least something like an anchor on your Biceps will still look like an anchor in 50 years.

Tatoos are a great way to distinguish low and lower-middle class people.

Not a fan of tattoos for myself, some of the large scale tattoos look cool though. The people that tie together a full sleeve, full back, flank, just one, two or all three. Those look cool to me.

this, the artwork is amazing now but overly detailed or colour tats age so fucking badly.

oddly enough i am 22

been working out for about 3 years seriously, dropped about 100-120 lbs since then, It just sticks with me because it's the kind of attitude that got me into wanting to be in better shape. and keeps me going, staying in that mental state focused on realizing my potential and all that

ill keep that in mind, thanks

Like I said, your body mate. If it means a whole bunch to you then some random cunt online saying they personally don't like the idea won't dissuade you. If me not liking the idea does make you question it then maybe it isn't something you see yourself still being into in 5 years, or 25 years.

Considering getting something like this on my arm, but in black

Tattoos are for the degenerates.

I only respect the ex-combatants who wear them as a memory of the hard times.

Not a huge fan of these photo real tattoos, it doesn't even look like an arm anymore. literally looks like a painting plastered on skin, doesn't go with the muscle and absolutely no skin showing underneath. I wonder how it looks once it's healed, most of these tattoo photos are taken right after the ink has gone down.

dont get me wrong the artist is talented I just like tattoos that look like tattoos.

Tattoos are for hyperemotional faggots. There is literally no reason anybody who wasn't a soldier or sailor needs a tattoo.

Everybody tries to give their tattoo some retarded deep meaning but in reality they're just being vain little shits who wanted to seem edgy and out there but not actually do anything that would bear social consequences.

OP probably regrets posting this. Although, I do like crusaders.

You're not Japanese or Chinese. Stop making a fool of yourself.

thats a stretch

everything in this post
it's a technically nice tattoo, but it's like wrapping fabric over your arm, all that black space, doesn't really go well with the human body

>Veeky Forums hates tattoos because the chads that fuck their oneitis have shitty tattoos and therefore all tattoos are bad and all people who have them are stupid

Given that 95% of mis/fit/s are permavirgins, this may be the most accurate answer

This, also the shading looks really amateur. Sorry bro, it kind of looks fucked.

In my opinion tattoos should be all over the body and should pretty much all be shit and many of them should be 'regrettable'.
If you're going to get inked you should turn yourself over to it. You should get tattoos freely and without hesitation. You should get cheap ones, shitty ones, funny ones. They should be a roadmap of all the good times and bad times and hilarious times you've had in your life.
They shouldn't be done for aesthetic purposes or to increase your masculinity or to help you pose as a man (so many downy soft pussy lads walking around with full sleeves and knuckle tats who haven't done anything more adventurous than spending a week in Magaluf).

I can appreciate a nice work of art on someone but to me it's really quite boring to get an exquisite picture tattooed onto you. I like to meet people who I can point to a tattoo and say, 'when did you get that one?' and they'll have some daft story about a different time in their life.

Extreme cringe

OP your tattoo looks fucking retarded. Like crusaders are cool and everything, but slapping a shitty crusader greathelm on your pec is a bad idea. Especially when it has a rose and shit on it. You either go full flower knight or you go full on gay for jesus crusader

Consider getting it removed and reconsider ever getting another tattoo.

It's a red flag that the person in question is probably mentally uninteresting and unoriginal. Attention seeking with their tats, because they can't be interesting enough own their own without them. Low levels of educational attainment. Emotional issues. Generally just riff raff. Lots of negative connotations. And the few positive connotations ("B-but it makes me unique!") are delusional. There are some exceptions, just the above is all generally true.

Chads generally don't have tattoos.

> These tatoos will look like absolute shit in a decade.

Nah senpai, yeah they'll fade but tattoo's have come a long way, the ink is way better, it'll retain vivd colour for well over a decade

Congratulations on choosing the most clichéd tattoo of all time. After that, get a tramp stamp and some barbed wire around your arm and make your body a billboard of unoriginality.

One year healed

We both know this isn't you and that chest doesn't bench 225x4

I love dark soul bro

why do you have an old african face on your arm?

why?

It's a leg and it's not mine, I was just showing the guy I replied to that my artists work holds up after it's fully healed

At least I wasn't born to be that stupid

I agree. What do you think about anime girls?

You have poor grammar, so maybe you were.

Teach me, senpai.

fag

Funnily enough i used to hate tattoos until seeing the ones in full metal alchemist and fate/stay might among other anime.

What's so bad about it? It's not like the tattoos are one off seemingly randomly placed tattoos like OP's. They are planned and have a background theme. Regardless I'm not going to be getting any tattoos anyway, I just thought they looked neat.

Tattoos are only for faggots. You've probably seen photos of people who get tattoos to hide the scars from some surgery. They are also faggots. That guy who doesn't have a tattoo, but wants one - total fag.

You clearly didn't read my post. I liked tattoos from anime. As far as outside of anime though i am really selective. Still I don't see a problem with getting a tattoo if it's some unsightly scar. If it's just a blemish then sure it is gay. I never said I wanted a tattoo. I find certain tattoos neat looking but I don't want any for myself, and likely never will.

Why doesn't Veeky Forums like tattoos? Not everything has to be "hyper realistic" to look good. There are differemt art styles for a reason.

lol!

Ahhh, yes, I see your point. Thank you for the deep reasoning and insight you've bestowed upon this board.

What's wrong with your nipples?

>most females have no convictions worthy enough to engrave upon their flesh
Too right

I came here hoping to see hot guys with tattoos. Instead I got this nonsense lol :P

Why is fit so cringey

u mad because u have kindergarten doodles on ur back, wasteman...

the fish is cool. going to age like turd but oh well

woulda been better as the style from cans of tuna you can buy from the supermarket, instead of some kids colouring book :^) LUL

Nice chick tat

I like them and it gets the panties wet on tinder. I threw this on my profile yesterday because women always ask to see the tattoos and have had 9 matches since uploaded.

>Inb4 the women are degenerates not worth a relationship
No fucking shit, it's tinder.

>getting tattoos
>that shitty placement
>that shitty design
>Is the helmet.... too round?
>"muh crusaders"
>gyno
>pale as the moon

Holy fuck, please be a troll

You'd best already have plans to retake Constantinople otherwise you're gonna look like a poser m80

Thanks senpai. Life sucks and then you die old and fat as if you've never lifted anyways. Got the turtle in the phillipines and the sailfish done in Vietnam when I deployed so at least its a better story than I just felt like it.

We used to be templars and shit

>my artists
How much does Steve Butcher actually charge for these tattoos?

Dude's talented as fuck

Thx man. May the gains flow freely unto you.

I have a tattoo of my platoon on my chest, and another one on my lower forearm.

Am i a faggot now ?

No, just a cuck.

...

Here's mine: Thinking of expanding it now that my arm is larger (this was taken last winter, when I got it.) Either with more runes to follow the pattern, or something in latin. (I am swedish, so it's more heritage than LARP)

Looks really neat, user.

You just make terrible decisions.

Manlet

The cringiest thing in this thread is you wearing toe socks

Good tat. Should get a mjolnir or a valknut

Dude they're all I wear. So fucking comfy xD

>moto tats

I only have military related tattoos because I never really cared about anything else enough to get a tattoo of it. Like dude does that wolf on your arm really mean a lot to you? Or those birds on your shoulder blade

Gay af tbhfam

Wth are you holding is that your inflammed testicticle?

Can't see the tat with your shit camera

Wow op is legit autistic
Lmao
Deus gyno! Haha

All hope of aesthetics: lost

I just have a bunch of random stuff all over the place
My mates a tattoo artist, and I draw dope shit
So I draw dope shit and he tattoos the dope shit on me
You guys are thinking about this more than the lads with the tattoos lmao

Are tattoos really all that bad?

I've been interested in getting a tattoo on my upper arm or chest for years.
Would I just be fucking myself over?

I like tattoos. But i have a good amount. Definitely go to a good artist. Also
