Apparently not. Let's get this going again, yea?

Someone clearly doesn't understand tattoos, or tattoo culture. Say that to an artist and you'll get a knuckle sandwich, say that to people in the culture and they'll laugh at you.

Here's my contribution, seems OPs style

>>9556493
oh shit
someone saved this
does anyone else itt know where this is from

>>9557984
the hell are you talking about? this forum is about appearance obviously. are you new?

people "in the culture" will laugh at that shitty tattoo you posted kek

>>9557980
this tattoo is so corny and overdone

gonna get more done soon. next up is a red panda on the lower forearm inner side from brian pavok

I like Eterno.

>>9558791
Dat style
Not fan of the subject matter really but fuck I like those lines, reminds me of Fletcher Hanks

>>9558795

Yeah, I'm not crazy about some of his designs but I love his style.

>>9558791
i wish he did more larger pieces

>>9558777
this is why tattoos are looked down upon

>>9558808

I've only seen a few of his bigger pieces but I don't like them as much, the comic-y styles works better as multiple smaller pieces imo.

>>9558819
you should check out @mattydarienzo & @duncanxtattoos if you haven't already they are pretty similar

i like this tattoo by him its p big

none of you fags know what a tattoo is supposed to look like so i'll post some heat

>>9558872
i think im gonna vom

>>9558840
This shit is cool as fuck, reminds me of old comics with the sorta naive style and punk/skater aesthetic, the clean lines and very graphic plain black and white are dope as fuck for tattoos too.
Do you know anyone else with similar style? I don't think I've ever wanted to be tattooed by someone specific before now.

>>9558875
they are the best at that style tbh tons of tattooers use strictly black with no shading though

>>9558886
>tons of tattooers use strictly black with no shading though
Yeah but the whole style is just mad fucking dope to me and the lines are so nice and clean.

>>9558893

I was thinking of getting Aatrox, the Darkin Blade on my back. Sword would bend around to my side. Would look sick with the gothninja style and maybe a chain. Try and mix it up.

>>9562587
yikes.

i thought this was a nice tattoo. my boyfriend got me into spirituality, so namaste is really personal for me

I've always thought these were really cute. I would get them behind my ear but I'm scared of the pain >__<

jesus feckin christ no dont do it
think about it for a second you want to PERMANENTLY scar your body with the image of a goddamn character from a mediocre moba gaim??
im going to tell you what i was told to do
get something that actually personally MEANS something to you
if you get random fucking shit like what you posted in a yr or so youre gonna want something completely different or will be embarrassed of it because it has no personal meaning to you other than >being cool dood

seriously spend a yr or more thinking about what you've gone through in your life whether it be good or bad and has shaped you into who you are as an individual, as well as the version of you who you aspire to be and get something based of those feelings other than just getting a shitty LOL hero for the sake of getting a shitty LOL hero..

thats why i really can relate and appreciate japanese irezumi is because all of the images in them have MANY deep rooted meanings to them, and many of them are very inspiring like the carp/koi representing masculinity, determination, courage, bravery,and tenacity for swimming up the waterfall for a hundred years because of the oni making the waterfall sadistically high as well as taunting them and mocking them with half of the carp giving up and a small portion of them continuing on to the top of dragonfalls with only 1 to finally reach the top become a golden dragon

Appropriating other people's cultures is as SWPL as you can get. Googling the meaning behind them doesn't make it any more authentic.

>>9562669
the feck is your point?
i should spend hundreds if not thousands of my hard earned dollars to get a tattoo that i hate or have no personal connection to? just because its part of >muh "culture"
thats even worse than getting something that i thought was cool at the moment like >>9562587 cause im letting someone dictate what i should put on my OWN body based on my race, and not what i can relate to or inspire me
i didnt realize art was fucking race restricted

Jesus christ that is an awfully done tatoo. I hope you didn't actually pay money to have that on you permanently.

>>9569660

>>9569680

>>9569718

>>9567357

the idea is that it is something unchanging about yourself, something meaningful and profound to you personally.
In the same way you'll decorate your room and house in a way that's appealing to you, you can decorate your body.
I have a tattoo of a wolf and it says "Listen to them, the children of the night. What music they make!" which, if you didn't know, is a quote from Bram Stroker's Dracula
I have it because
1. I love dogs and wolves and volunteer at both a wolf sanctuary and dog shelter
2. I love gothic literature and art.

>>9569634

Really like this one, if I was getting this I'd definitly get a cathedral on my torso, can I ask your motivation for getting them? Especially >>9569606 are you not worried people will think you are a nazi?

Do you have any already? How do people react to them? Also did you get them in authentic cheap ass ink or get them done by a proper guy?

>>9569837
I'm as decided as you, I won't get one without the other, I feel like they're all a set and they only work that way, I have a guy who does my ink well, I have a noose with hundreds of tiny straight lines, any pictures like these are guaranteed to turn out how they are in ink perfectly.
I want a cathedral on my chest but my noose goes down to just above one of my nipples so I'd max it out at the tip of my abdomen.

Will dump a few more images now :)

>>9569837
>>9570095
Also in terms of people thinking I'm a Nazi you'd be amazed at how many people don't even know what the symbol means, also it's so small on the skull that it wouldn't really bother me, I plan to get one of the two circled eagles in this pic (minus wreath/ swastika) just above my shin as I have the Teutonic cross/ iron cross to match on my other thigh.

Are you into Russian lit? Got any Crime and Punishment inspo?

Does this style have a name? It's from the movie The way back.

>>9570164
Those are Russian prison tattoos like what that one guy is dumping.

>>9570130
>>9570145
My inspo came from a couple tacky Russian films, all these tattoos are 'prison' ones, so they relate to crimes, each and every one, they're trophies of valor for Russians that have them, to me they're just cool and I enjoy the history behind them - of which doesn't put me off getting any - as for example, 'eyes' indicate the person is a rapist and will rape other inmates, often they're on the hips to act as eyes for the dick.

Links related: Youtube documentaries on the history/ crime connections of the tattoos

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIjQFlJ4dGo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHbqsO6mctA

I also plan on getting an epaulette but because of my noose there isn't much room, so that's the only one I'm doubtful to get, I have a white collar job where tattoos, piercings, none are accepted, as much as I want a tattoo on the back of my head, and on my hands, I can't - at least not till I have retired.

>>9570164
>>9570178
Fun fact: The stars are for the highest ranking members, and some inmates get tattoos on their eyelids which read 'Do not wake' so when they're sleeping, others know not to awake them or they'll get killed/ severely beaten.

Pic related is a modern throw at the designs, not one I like, it looks comic, much like sailor tattoos

>>9568915
How old is the lower half of this sleeve? How much have the colours faded?

what's to understand?

i wish i could read russian i feel like the russian prison ones say funny stuff

>>9570198
really old. soo 7 years? holding up pretty good I think. Tattoo fading was a problem back in the day because people used to think deeper was better but they it just spread out over time

>>9567270
same. i kind of laughed thinking she was joking when she charged me 200 an hour.

>>9572147
guests typically want more $$$ but yeah. i am over her tattoos tbh. she is cool though

>>9569749
or you just like tattoos. nobody actually into tattoos has to explain some extremely corny bullshit excuse for their tattoo. you normies make me sick.

>>9570395
which ones in particular?

>>9568903
your tattoos are absolutely terrible. people with good tattoos are embarrassed to share the concept of tattoos with you.

this is why you research tattoos and dive into the instagram scene, guys. going downtown to your local shitty scratcher tattoo shop is a very very bad idea. leave this shit in the 2000s.

>>9570395

yeah, those guys probably just scribble memes all over themselves and laugh in prison with their comrades

>>9573126
haha okay mate. its just time, these are old. your new "cool" tattoos will be shit in 7 years. can i see yours?

>>9573214
thats not true at all. i understand why you'd make that generalization though, because everyone on this forum is really basic with their artistic decisions
plenty of tattoos look great with time given you aren't mindless enough to buy into shitty trends. you are basically a product of post-tattoo legalization trends. not only that, but the tattoo artist(s) you chose to do your shit seriously suck
kek @ "can i see yours?"
i'm really not trying to roast you but tattoos are trendy right now and i think its better to show people what not to do. body modifications in general have a pretty terrible stigma because of the 2000s (think facial piercings, tramp stamps, etc)

For soviet gangs:

Party members on chest, or Marx/Lenin is so that the firing squad wouldn't shoot their image (its a superstition)

The number of domes on the Orthodox church is the number of times they've been in jail

Spider on Neck means killer

Stars on shoulder show they are a Thief in Law, which is an esteemed rank

Hands/Knuckles marks is for gang affiliation/other jobs


IMO Soviet tattoos are fucking sick

>>9573377
Your speaking as if I dont know anything about tattoos etc. A lot of the shit ones I got I was super young/fucked up and my mates did it. I agree people should think about. But now ive got so many I honestly dont care what I get.

Why "kek" at that? you clearly like tattoos and have a high standard for art, why not post them? that is of course if you dont have any

>>9573430
>But now ive got so many I honestly dont care what I get.
I can relate to this sentiment a bit. I feel the more tattoos you have overall, the less each tattoo appears to have some special significance or meaning.

>>9573417
this is pretty cool. orthodox church tattoos could look nice if they're done well
