I am doing a total make-over right now! It is time to leave the past behind, and emerge as a beautiful butterfly, from an old nasty cocoon, my life has become... Since i am very short on cash, i am doing it myself, using home appliances :/ Here is the look I am going after:

I think tattoos make people look butt ugly. Same goes for piercings and all that, "customize thyself" crap. Thankfully, it's not a big thing here in Serbia.

My goal is look very simple on the outside, almost bland. But at the same time to strive for complexity inside.

Too bad I would look like a weirdo (and attract unwanted attention) if I choose to wear something like this (http://us.cdn002.fansshare.com/photos/christianbale/men-christian-bale-equilibrium-www-huy-com-ua-380934860.jpg). It would be awesome if that was dominant fashion style nowadays. I know that one day it will be.

Tattoos are a waste of time and money imo, obviously people can do whatever they like with their freetime and money, i prefer having a nice shirt and shoes instead of a tattoo, or spend my time and money for other stuff.

Btw I paid a tatoo as a gift to one of my best friends a couple of years ago, i wouldn't do any tattoo on myself tho.  It's the tattoo on the right.   Spoiler = gay content

Damn right and a real son of the emperor knows that individualism leads to the temptations of Slaanesh. Empty your mind and let it be filled with the light of the emperor. Forsake all the petty worldly things and replace them with prayers. Merge your soul with the beacon of his light and may it keep away the darkness forever.

Tattoos are heresy.

I do have a tattoo of great meaning to me and it's a work of art i proudly ware on my skin. It's a Japanese dragon ( figure that  :mrgreen: ) it's on my chest/shoulder/upper arm area and will be a sleve some day.

I respect people saying tattoos aren for them but don't knock us that like them. Atleast half of the people i hang out have either tattoos or piercings ( girls more than guys actually ) so yes it's not such an uncommon thing nowdays i guess it is more "mainstream" now than ever but doesn't automatically make it a bad thing imo.

Story in that movie is bullcrap, fighting scenes are what counts. And it's not possible for humans not to feel emotions, just like some tattoo junkie isn't more "emotionally aware" than little old me. Drawing pictures on your skin doesn't make you a different person.

Tattoos had (have) important role in certain societies but unlike many people think, there is nothing cool about tribes of savages and their tattoos. People think they were (are) free and that we (civilized world) are slaves. That's incorrect. Where people have little to no education, oppression is strong. People think women have no rights in muslim states, guess they have never seen how they live in Ethiopian mountains. Tradition is so rigid in those societies, everyone has a role he has to live by. If he choose not to (to think freely with his own head), he is purged from the tribe (and left to die in the wilderness). Tattoos are actually achievement markers, that show that individual has gone through certain phase of his predefined life (rules of the tribe).

Personally I wouldn't get even one of those pieces, seems that he should better use pen and paper than human skin.

Not to mention that all those tiny dots and fine lines will become just one blob of ink over the years. That's no serious tattoo work... more like some trendy hip piece of modern art.

The process is basicly always the same...

The tattoo artist of your choice sits down with you and you explain him what kind of piece you want. Probably making some scribble while talking about it clarify some details and positioning. Then the artist sits down and makes a clean and proper drawing of what you discussed. Few days or weeks later you'll meet again and he'll show you what he got, again talking about, maybe make a few minor changes here and there and make an appointment some time later for the actual session.
When you get back for the actual session he takes his drawing and makes a copy with thermal transfer paper which means he gets a piece of paper with the drawing on that will be placed on your body and leaves all the lines in place.
Then he starts with tattoo'ing the outlines, then probably the solig black parts, then the shadows and most likely do coloured parts at the end. The bigger the piece the higher the chanced that it takes more than 1 session to do it.

The guy everyone seems to really dig here makes his "drawings" not by hand and with pen and paper but instead uses photoshop (the software) to create the piece. The rest is probably the same process.

I've wanted a tattoo for some 5 years now but haven't gotten one for a couple reasons. I'm afraid how it would hold up with my lifting and training and I also wouldn't want to get one unless I felt the tattoo artist was a 'true' artist; able to actualize whatever was envisioned.
And you should. A tattoo should always mean something. Little stars on the foot - fuck that. The same fucking butterfly on the hip, like the last 25 girlies - fuck that.
A good tattoo guy asks you really detailed about what you want and probably even why but a good one will never just do exactly what you tell him. He'll always put a little bit of himself into it.

I am really lucky to have my friend doing the pieces for me. I met him first when he was still an apprentice and I was actually the 5th guy he ever tattooed. That gives me some special "rights" with him. He started out doing those girlie butterfly things just because he had to pay his rent, the shop rent and his food. But he became pretty famous in quite a short amount of time and today as a regular customer you'll have to wait up to 9 months to get an appointment with him and only if he is interested in the piece you want. He even had invites to several international conventions like in NY, Singapour, Toronto and his proudest moment to Tokio. But he wants to keep his business small, so no big appearance on the web, small shop, no big advertisement on the front door... I already posted the link but seems he is pretty subtle indeed cuz nobody seemed to notice.

Instead everyone went crazy about a guy who puts digital photoshop pics onto some poor guys body :P

maybe his technique isn't original, artistic as others or maybe he is a my old friend for not being able to draw his shit by himself, but I wouldn't care. His stuff looks fucking awesome and you can actually tell your friends how he did it different from other artists.

Shoulder pads, hammer pants, bell bottoms, izod logos, fanny packs, leisure suits, crocs, parachute pants, corduroy pants, polo shirts, popped collars, dicky's, cullotes on men, one-piece jumper's, leg warmers, members only jackets, drop crotch pants,......and many more.

What do those items all have in common? At one time a ton of people thought it was cool to have that look. Now they just look back and wonder "What was I thinking? LOL!". The difference between those items and the current tattoo trendy fad (even though it is going decades strong now) is that people could shed those bad decisions in seconds flat. Try that with a tattoo! If you like them and really believe that they are for you, great. Have at it. But at least have a little more self-respect than to simply decide one drunken afternoon that today is the day to get one and go pick some random piece of amateurish graphic art off the closest tattoo shop's wall of generic slop. And for fucks sake, the last thing the world needs is another tribal tattoo on the arm of some white guy whose closest experience to a tribe is National Geographic or the Indian Headdress he wore for Halloween when he was 4 years old  :rolleyes:

Yo, tribal is a mindset, not a trend. Every brother got tribe blood in him, word! Don't y'all hear the drums: BADUMBADUMDUMDUMBADUM.

A tribal tattoo is to the male what a tramp stamp is to the female.


Once again I have to advise against getting a tattoo. If you do want to get one, at least make it something useful like this: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=31873

Okay, that guy is an actual artist who works with skin. From what I've seen, 95% or more who do the work are more like "tattoo techs", or in the more common job lingo you hear nowadays by the fly by night certificate schools, a "tattoo parlor pro".

If I'd be into tattoos I would have that Supernatural anti-possession tattoo on my chest and probably some stuff written to my arm with viking age runes.

However I'm not too eager to put ink to my skin for some reason. Not afraid of the needle but I'm thinking that the ink might get my skin to get worse (I've had atopic rash all my life but it's not a big deal anymore so why risk it for some tattoos?)

also depends on what you are doing, if you only have something written it doesn't hurt that much, i had allot of shading done and mine hurt like hell.
Yea, shading is a bitch, doesn't matter where you get it. When I got my inner biceps piece, barely anything full black, I had tears in my eyes the full 2 hours...

It's pretty simple really, if you have any doubts about getting a tattoo... just don't!

Ive been considering a tattoo for a while but its hard to choose  :-P

I want an anglo-saxon tat but not too big.
For me it always has been like something happened which was life changing and I just had to get something to make me remember for the rest of my life. And every piece was my idea. I knew what it should look like even before I went to my buddy to talk about it.
As long as you don't have a full idea and you don't have the feeling of "this is awesome with sauce on top" - don't get it.


And in general... make sure you like the guy who will tattoo you. It's a very personal thing to let somebody pierce you with needles several thousand times. There should be trust and a friendly mutual feeling.

Also, it is good not to start with tattoos that are easily visible like lower arm or even your neck - Tattoos are socially accepted nowadays, but you still can get into problems while looking for employment(Or if you plan to live in Japan, for that instance - People over there are still very suspicious of tattoos because of the Yakuza).

Don't do it if you don't already know the image.

Either you simply know what you want or you shouldn't get it. Otherwise you could just go for the rose or butterfly on you ankle. I heard that's hip nowadays.

Shoulder pads, hammer pants, bell bottoms, izod logos, fanny packs, leisure suits, crocs, parachute pants, corduroy pants, polo shirts, popped collars, dicky's, cullotes on men, one-piece jumper's, leg warmers, members only jackets, drop crotch pants,......and many more.

What do those items all have in common? At one time a ton of people thought it was cool to have that look. Now they just look back and wonder "What was I thinking? LOL!". The difference between those items and the current tattoo trendy fad (even though it is going decades strong now) is that people could shed those bad decisions in seconds flat. Try that with a tattoo! If you like them and really believe that they are for you, great. Have at it. But at least have a little more self-respect than to simply decide one drunken afternoon that today is the day to get one and go pick some random piece of amateurish graphic art off the closest tattoo shop's wall of generic slop. And for fucks sake, the last thing the world needs is another tribal tattoo on the arm of some white guy whose closest experience to a tribe is National Geographic or the Indian Headdress he wore for Halloween when he was 4 years old  :rolleyes:

Regular polo shirts are always in style.

Complex arrangements of extremely simple geometric patterns interest (they show up in architecture consistently for most of history, suggesting greater longevity than a polo shirt) me for that reason, as does simple text and/or equations. My paranoia of one day being identified by a tattoo is part of what stops me, however, as well as wanting a complete road map before I commissioned any one spot.

Alternatively, commissioning some like George Bokhua (https://www.behance.net/milash) to come up with the design would work for me, too.

this is not how any of this works, you have to provide pics. You can leave face and dick out of picture.

Part of the reason why you would want to get a tattoo is that you actually want to be identified by it.
For me, only if that is the case for the motive in question, it's a proper tattoo for you.

I do have a tribal on my right shoulder and it's rather small and old by now. But I don't care if others think it looks shit. I have a connection to the piece. I connect a very specific state of mind with it. For me, it has a story, a mood, a feeling. I'll get it overworked in time, when the time is right. But I am in no way ashamed about it.
All 3 pieces I have are part of me, part of my identity and I think that's how it should be.

Well, if it's originally supposed to be a branding, rough edges make kinda sense.
