Do tattoos make you cooler? More confident? A sign of bravery, creativity, baddassery, uniqueness?
Do you agree?
You may choose only one

Creativity and uniqueness are the only ones I agree with. Unless you're one of those losers that picks designs off the display walls in tattoo shops.

ok "creativity" and "uniqueness" are going to be my second and third then.  Should I get a crazy font or just stick with Comic Sans?

Technically the bravest people are people who get tattoos of really dumb or ugly things, or names of their lovers. That's a very bold move and takes lots of bravery to do.

Bravery is relative to how much risk one believes they are taking. That something is done out of stupidity does not mean it was a brave choice if the person in question thought it was a good idea at the time. :lol:

Wouldn't it just take a dumb person to put dumb tattoos on them? I don't think it takes any amount of bravery to get any tattoo unless you have some kind of phobia of needles.

I say none of the above.  I think the described traits are far deeper than a tattoo.

They're just ink.

No. An artist is an artist regardless of the media they choose.

But it would take more than a tattoo for me to consider someone "creative."

They don't do any of those things, but I think people should get them if that's the way they picture themselves in their head. People owe it to themselves to make their appearances line up with their personality, and tattoos can be a part of that. I only have a little bit of ink on me but I want to get more.

I think if a person wants to ink themselves, then so be it, just think about what you're going to get before you get it so you don't make a poor choice, and make sure the artist knows what they're doing.

Personally the only reason I would want any tattoo removed, because if you ever get in trouble and they photograph your tats, then you have another identifying mark on your body that big bro can see.

Here's my opinion which I didn't add yet:

Tattoos actually DO increase confidence and makes people feel cooler, especially when the tattoos are visible in plain sight to people in public. Ive noticed this with a lot of females and some more reserved / meek type men. I'm 99% sure they feel cooler and more confident with their tattoos than they did without them.

I don't have any tattoos at all, but Ive thought about getting my entire body tattooed with a theme that is personal to me, though I'll have it done in a way that makes it invisible to people in public, because I think knowing that other people see your tattoos does change your conscience.

You'd have to be pretty insecure to gain any type of confidence from having tattoos though. I feel like people think I'm cooler for them for whatever reason, but I don't think that though.

I don't even really think about mine, but get self-consious when people ask about them and end up muttering about something unrelated. It was money spent that I didn't piss away.

I'm much more concerned with how vascular and swole I look these days.

Well said Hex. My tats are a rite of passage for me; if you know how to read them right, they're basically a roadmap of the trials, tribulations, and lessons that life has taught me, starting with my first @ 15:



--------------------
Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not.

They could do any of the things you listed, but they do not necessarily have to. I think, for the most part, tattoos only have as much of an effect as was intended by getting them in the first place, but sometimes the experience of getting one is much different than what one expected.

My two tattoos relate to experiences i've had. However, the imagery itself is not a direct translation of the experiences, but rather something that I saw in my imagination, spontaneously or in a dream, at the time of the experience. Lovely way to remind yourself of things you wish to remember.

That's pretty much exactly what tattoos signify for me, a visual manifestation of my life and the factors that made me what I am. It's also just an incredibly primal practice, using your body as a canvas. Kinda makes me feel like I carry a living link to a culture much deeper than modern western life.

I probably sound pretentious as fuck talking like this, and tattoos are certainly not the only way to connect oneself to that primacy, but that's just what it is to me.

I like your ink, btw. I definitely want to keep mine all black too. Much more aesthetically pleasing than "traditional" tattoos and the like in my eyes.

I gained 45lbs this year (fit, not fat) and my tattoos haven't warped at all.

This. A million times over, this.

I have a huge one on my back that's semi finished, but it's gonna stay like that, as I see no point spending money on something I need a combination of mirrors to see. My tats are for me, and not for anyone else (with the one I got for my wife being an exception). That's why all my text is written in reverse; so it reads the right way for me when I'm looking in a mirror.

Marking my body is one of the greatest and most fulfilling things I can do in this world.

I don't know if your tattoo map is complete yet jsb. I don't see a blue steak anywhere. Any room to sneak in a nice little filet or something?

Did gaining some size change the look of them at all? I lost like 20 pounds of muscle a while back that I'm working on getting back slowly, and mine actually look a bit better after shrinking lol.




I gained 45lbs this year (fit, not fat) and my tattoos haven't warped at all.




Good job man, dat's a lotta gainz. Good to know though, I'm planning on getting more soon and I don't want them to look funky if I end up putting on more weight than what I was at prior to losing it.

Have you thought about getting any brands? I was so close to getting a brand a while back but Idk how I'd feel about it right now if I had gone through with it.

Already got a few, all done myself. Scarification is my favourite, not only for how surreal it is watching someone peel your skin off, but the end result is so bold:

It's actually not that painful - I've had tats that hurt more. The armpit is the fucking worst - I had to hold my breath and clench my teeth through every minute of it.

The scarification was like some wild acid trip - a 3 storey shop with psychedelic art dripping off the walls, Psytrance blasting through the stereo, and pretty much every bloke in there had their whole faces tattooed. As I will one day, something a little like this:



That takes real courage IMO. I can hide all my tats if I need to, I can fit in with the 'normal' people, but when you take that step you step straight into being a social outcast for the rest of your days here...

I've also thought here and there about whether I would get any face tats as well. I wouldn't get anything in the middle of my face tattooed though because I still want to look like me I guess, I'd only go as far as my jawline or temple. I shave my head slick bald though so I got a whole lot of room back there to fill up lol.

For some reason the beginning of the thread reminded me of this quote....."Smart may have the brains, but stupid has the balls."

I dig that too honestly. The whole under the clothes tattoos where it's hidden. I would honestly need it going into the profession I want to go into. People are too judgey these days about tattoos in certain workplaces. Luckily I dress kind of frumpy so I don't need to be too careful about where I put them. :lol:



But honestly tattoos don't really make me think of much when I see them on people regarding their 'coolness' or 'creativity'. I'm always very curious to see what they have and think it's pretty interesting. It's also a good ice break in social situations and I think you can tell alot about people's personalities by what they get, even if you don't talk to them. In a way, what people get on their skin is a branding of some sort, and most of the meaning is strictly for themselves.

I have this thought process that your skin is like the pages in a book and your tattoos are your words. But I do enjoy reading some good books. So I guess that is how I go about it.....

People back in the 70's and early 80's who had tatoos were usually badasses...now that they're so popular they come across to me as lame, especially considering how expensive they are.  I'm actually kinda proud that i'm one of the few who has never gotten one.  One thing i would consider would be one of those branding deals, which forms the image from the raised scar tissue

You're talking about the scar going keloid (raised). Not everybody's skin naturally does this, so it has to be agitated throughout the healing process to ensure it - it's not a given.

My couple of brands are actually sunk into my skin, rather than raised, and the only reason my scarification went keloid at all was because I scrubbed the scab of every night for two weeks with sugar and peroxide..

..it was actually far more painful doing that than getting it done in the first place.

That is so hipster to think that they were bad asses back then vs now. 

What are all the people supporting saggy barb wire across their biceps from the 80s and 90s considered in this?

Don't want tattoos don't get them,  if you are getting them for any reason beyond your personal desire you will probably regret it down the road.

That scarification definitely looks sick as fuck especially over the ink you already had there, but idk if I could handle that much pain (particularly the peroxide scrubbing)

I once ripped most of my forearm off from snow burn skiing would guess about 2/3s as big as jsb area and keeping it clean with warm water, soap around the edges, and peroxide was hellish. After a few days it wasn't as bad but those first couple times had me shaking.

I think people with visible tattoos tend to give them selves away.. For example when I see someone with a neck or face tattoo I figure that person is most likely down for some shit.. They're like stripes on a tiger, or the red mark on black widows alerting u to their poisonous nature.. Tis why I'm not too fond of getting tattoos on my arms or anywhere where they'd be too visible, cuz I feel like I'd give myself away and I'd prefer to keep peeps guessing..

When u get tats it's like u let people know of ur predation, u become a predator, as well as a target or prey for other predators.. Tats are indeed like badges, something U have to earn I guess, otherwise ure just fooling urself and other people..

Tats aren't like badges unless you're in a tribe or the navy. You can get them for whatever reason you want. You're right though, some people do treat you differently. My piercings put more people off than my tattoos though, I remember when I had my face pierced in multiple places, and 2 inch tunnels in my ears, and I was trying to help this old lady pick up her groceries she dropped in a parking lot she scurried over to them and told me to get away cuz she thought I was trying to steal them :lol:

I have a stick and poke I did about 8 years ago. Holly shit I'm getting old. It's actually "unfinished" I got to a point where I wasn't sure what I wanted to do next. I thought I would think about it for a couple days, and now 8 years later I still haven't touched it. I don't think I'll ever pay someone to tattoo me, or get a tattoo in a very visible location, but I would definitely give myself another stick and poke if the inspiration hit me.

Do you have any other ink Malquan? I'm assuming that's not going to be your first piece, but respect either way, that would definitely be a bold starting point.

Fair enough. See, I kinda think sleeves look retarded a lot of the time when it gets to the point where you can't distinguish what the individual elements are, but I do appreciate continuity/connectedness in people's tattoos. I got a buddy who's got both his arms covered with random traditional shit that all ends up blending together into this lame collage of daggers, eagles, all seeing eyes and shit like that and it's just tacky in my opinion. Diff'rent strokes.

Individual tattoos definitely look tacky on some people (read: white girls) but it depends more on the person than the image IMO.

Nah no UV :lol: kinda cheesy IMO.

I've been showing a bunch of people and haven't gotten one bad response yet. I think its a great design.

If you don't mind my prying, how much you planning on droppin on that? I'd guess at the very least a stack, probably more like a couple.

Yeah, didn't get it. The idea just faded away after thinking so long about a certain design then I just came up with something else :shrug: I would still get something DBZ related if I thought of a good idea, it was a huge part of my childhood lol.

I think UV is kind of cheesy as well. But I used to have a roommate who did tattoos. Never got one from him myself, bit undecisive with that kind of stuff. But some of his cooler UV tattoo projects were a dragon engraved chest plate tattoo and a Chesire cat tattoo where the eyes were visible but the face came up under blacklight.

That sounds pretty cool. UV has lots of potential to be cheesy, agreed. If I got any these days, it would be in subtle details only.

Right on. I want to get some Studio Ghibli, Sailormoon, and Gundam inspired ones and actually found a place that sort of specializes in anime down around where you are at I think. But then I moved further north so now it'll be a bit before I gather the money and invest the time to travel down there for a tattoo. To be honest, I haven't thought much about what more to get for myself. DBZ would be awesome too. That show was a big part of my childhood too.

I just had to look it up bc I only had the artist that I followed, BunnyMachine. She's the one that I meant to say specializes. I'm tired. Haha But found out she is at Classic Tattoo. I think that is in your neck of the woods.

When I was living in Japan as a kid they would have these mech toys that you could get out of like... those quarter machine things. But in Japan they were actually decent toys and were like $1. I grew up building some of the robots too.

I've never seen a design like your sleeve, occasionally a molecule or something but the overall design is pretty unique. It looks good, and I find 99% of tattoos tacky

Planning on getting matching tattoos with my sister, but we haven't decided on a design yet

Nice tattoo Malcolm. Lots of space to expand the design as well if you ever wanted, but it's complete on it's own as well. When you first posted the design, I was trouble imagining how it would fit around your arm, but looks like it came out pretty good. Definitely post when it's all completely finished.

Yeah i'll keep posting pictures as the shading and color gets updated. I think the way its laid out is perfect. A lot of the open space will be filled with a galaxy fading sort of effect that will blend it all together.

Whut? I didn't notice you had a sleeve on each arm going on.
Anyways, my honest critique is i feel like the design was solid and whoever is doing the tattooing could use a lot more practice. I like everything about the design except for the 'galaxy stiple spray'- as I would call it. It totally destroys the clean line feel of the tattoo.

Well, now that I'm looking at it again the atomic symbol is straight fucked.

Haha its still raised and swollen. She's going back over it 3 weeks. Also, I specifically asked for a galaxy striped type shading. It was really the only way to blend everything together and the top of my shoulder/arm is a galaxy as well so it only made sense

Yeah just a scalpel and some of those medical pincer/plier type things. Took the skin off in thin slivers. He went through about 8-10 blades in the 3-4 hours it took to do that if I remember right. I was surprised at how quick the blade dulled just cutting through a thin layer of skin and subcutaneous fat...

Fucking wicked experience though, I absolutely loved it.

Loving the way your tat is coming along by the way Malc, I think the design is the fucking bollocks and really looking forward to seeing it progress. Very happy for you too cause I know just how great it is seeing your vision slowly come to life - it's one of lifes sweetest pleasures for me, seeing it slowly healing into a work of art.

How much are you paying on the hour out of interest? Or have you got a day rate set up with your artist? They're real good IMO.

BTW - as a veteran, let me tell you there will always be bits of your tat with which you find fault. Sucks at first, but years down the line it becomes part of the beauty of it all.

Bear in mind colour will fade a lot quicker than black and grey and will thus need more frequent touching up as you age, or will just look worse a lot quicker with time (they're all gonna look shit when we're 60 anyway).

Wish I could find a good artist for that more reasonable money. My last artist I worked with for 8-9 years used to charge me £350 for a full 7 hour day (so £50/hour) but she was half way up the country and is now retired.

Any good artist round London these days wants £150 ($190) an hour. With the size of my next piece in mind (basically half my torso), there's no way I can afford that for now. Very sad TBH, just another of lifes most wonderful treats that have been stripped away from me.

Enjoy every minute of it please man. I hope you find that sweet place where the endorphins flow as you relax into it and you can drift off into a magical dreamland as they work. I find a blindfold/baseball cap over the eyes and earplugs and your fav music makes it like a psychedelic trip...

Let it be seen that you are nothing. And in knowing that you are nothing... there is nothing to lose, there is nothing to gain. What can happen to you? Something can happen to the body, but it will either heal or it won't. What's the big deal? Let life knock you to bits. Let life take you apart. Let life destroy you. It will only destroy what you are not.

I like mostly grayscale, but when it comes to colors to compliment it, I always thought certain shades of red, orange, and yellow work well.

Yeah I think it should have just as much to do with the artist as the art you're deciding on. It would probably be a good idea if the artist was strong in the type of tattoo or style you're looking for. I've always thought how much more awesome a tattoo would be if you knew the artist personally, instead of just a complete stranger.

They are essentially throwing hieroglyphics up on yo' temple walls. Tattoos are superficial in a sense, being only skin deep but in reality the depth is all up to you.

That's some nice work Malcolm, what did that cost, how many sittings?

Eventually when I save up enough money I want to get scarification, branded, and more tats.

Its cause the character in the tattoo is male and they dont want to see that character grabbing their dicks when they fap away. That would make the tattoo way to hilarious

Sure, sure. Leviticus also tells us not to hold a workers wages overnight, mix different fabrics together in one piece of clothing, trim your beard or work on Sundays either. I think tattoos could get a pass as well.
