Well, yeah. Gil was also really talented, and took a lot of care in photographing, and designing his illustrations. He didn't just cop out and do a poor piece together of someone else's work.

Same goes for saying never to get a tatoo on vacation to be honest("ALWAYS sit on your idea for awhile to make sure you REALLY want it permanently etched in your skin."). I've never done it myself, and probably never would, but not every idea has to be sat on for ages. Some people have fun getting little pieces to commemorate a trip. As long as it isn't poo poo quality, who cares? That one you posted was pretty bad, though. Content: From this article about certain tattoo style(s?) that are popular and fade really fast, though someone in the other thread mentioned that they had heard the second one was actually a rip off of the original. Who knows? Either way, looks like poo poo.

Psychobabble! posted:Fading tattoo styles Even the Mona Lisa is faded. I've got some painterly tattoos that are 10ish years old and are hard to read from any distance from a studio everyone speaks really highly of. It's not a problem, but that's just what happens with that style and how it worked out for me.

Look at the lines around the nose hole and the way strands of hair fall differently.

A lot of the minor details are missing, I highly doubt that a black line would just vanish. For example, the cracks under the eyes/on the cheek.

Esroc posted:It's obvious the second one is a copy by a less talented artist. Look at the lines around the nose hole and the way strands of hair fall differently. Both of those were taken from the same artist's facebook. They are the same tattoo. There's a lot you can do to make the tattoo look loving excellent walking out of the shop, and utter poo poo six months later. I have a tattoo on my back that won awards when it was done, and looks like utter poo poo now. The strands of hair look like they fall differently because the greywash the guy used didn't stay. Edit: Also, if you look to the left, and down a bit from the eyes in both pictures, you can see a mole they tattooed around. ToastFaceKillah has a new favorite as of 19:44 on Sep 19, 2014 |

If I ever did want to get a tattoo on vacation, hell if I'd end up at some kitchen scratcher in a tourist section of town, though. Research that poo poo first and find a good shop, jeez (which my friend's coworker clearly did not).

I get all my work done on vacations, but it's all things I've had planned for a long time and I go to very reputable shops I've checked out the work of online beforehand. It's a fun story and it's a cooler souvenir than a snow globe or whatever.

A girl who is ridiculously defensive of her lovely tattoos posted on fb yesterday that she was at a shop with "an amaaaazing artist" and the results did not disappoint Everyone who commented on that was talking about how they just loved it and they booked that artist for like a tattoo party or some stupid poo poo like that. Not the first time she'd get worked on outside of a tattoo parlor. One of those times she went to the artists house cause he was apprenticing at a shop and they wouldn't give him any time to work on clients so they told him he had to do it outside of the shop at home. That girl bought that load of bullshit and got some stupid squished ying yang symbol.
