I couldn't see a counterpart to the Tasteless Tattoo thread. So, post your favorite jaw-dropingly lovely examples of skin art. If you know who did them as well, so much the better.  Anil Gupta.  Amanda Wachob (you can't deny the shading is stunning)  Sneaky-Mitch Allenden  Nick Baxter  Anil Gupta I think, maybe Nick Baxter?   Kamil Tattoos.

No idea who did the tattooing, but a well done Drinky Crow on a extremely attractive girl certainly qualifies as actually GOOD in my book.

I believe there's a Goon who has one done by Amanda on his shoulder and he posted before and (months, maybe years) after pictures in the old Tattoo thread in YLLS. His aged really well and really the only difference was a slight fading in the colour but I don't remember it being nearly as "loud" as the one posted in the OP.

I know which tattoo you're talking about, not sure if it was done by her or not but it's definitely the same style. The design still looked cool, but it lost A LOT of color vibrance in only a year or two.

All I can see in the tattoo of that picture is the massive tent he's pitching.

 First off, the detail is amazing, both the anthropomorphic pony and giant cupcake look exactly like they would in real life. The shading is stunning. You can tell how excited the pony is to hug and later eat the cupcake, a metaphor for how humans would both hug or eat another person, in different circumstances; how fragile our present circumstances are. The iron cross on the pony's leg reminds us that nazis are still people, they love cupcakes as well. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

The YLLS thread that was previously linked exists pretty much exactly for this, but has the added benefit of not being filled with people that know loving nothing about tattoos and what makes them good or bad. Hell, two of the pictures in the OP belong to people from said thread. This is 100% going to receive the same levels of retarded argument the 'Tasteless tattoo' thread gets.

To be fair though, the YLLS thread is full of mostly discussion interspersed with half decent tattoos. Here can (hopefully) be mostly pics of just staggering pieces of work. Anil Gupta  Nick Baxter  Namenlos fucked around with this message at Dec 30, 2012 around 14:36 |

I have been trying to find a tattoo to get for years now so I'm always trying to find unique one-of-a-kind tattoos. I'm a huge fan of the skin project, a book only written on tattooed volunteers and the connect-the-dots giraffe. http://ineradicablestain.com/skindex.html9  I also really like lines.

MussoliniB posted:I also really like lines. Being absolutely RUBBISH at drawing straight lines without a ruler, and being worse at symmetry, this blows me away. I googled that skin project too, sounds nifty and a good a reason as any for a tat!

This is fantastic, but how well do tats like this hold up with fading of the colours over time?

ulilileeloo dallas posted:This one is really quite nice looking, but it doesn't really look like the subject In my memory, and having not seen the film in a few years, I thought it was pretty spot on. Hey ho. Cross posting from the tasteless tat thread, because Jesus gently caress look at that. rockcity posted:Shane is the only one who is any good on that show. My shop has been trying to get him to guest there for quite a while now. I agree that I think that one was only ok for his talent level, but it's largely because the customer would barely budge on how much he wanted to fit into the tattoo in the limited amount of time. Given another two hours, that tattoo could be really good. If Shane doesn't win, I give up on them. Given that next week is portraits and that's pretty much his specialty, he's pretty much guaranteed safe this next week. Apology posted:I do like tattoos. I'm just very picky about them.. Here's one that I like: Amy Wachob or not? I think there's too much heavy black in there, but beautiful all the same. Namenlos fucked around with this message at Jan 19, 2013 around 19:56 |
