I was gone for a couple months, and the random thoughts thread is still going strong. Who’d a thought?

I’m thinking it just shows the power of people with way too much time on their hands (like me).

Love. Peace. Metallica.

Ya know, I misread the title as “Gangsta” back piece, and I wandered in here expecting some ghetto ass scratcher work depicting fify cent smoking Tupac, while some pit bulls fucked some hos on inexplicable piles of dollar bills.

Need to say, totally wasn’t expecting that killer back piece man. You should be god damn proud to have that back…[Read more]

The outline’s looking kinda slick, but until you get more done, it’s gonna be hard to tell.

Love. Peace. Metallica.

Meh, I’ve seen better, but I’ve seen a helluva lot worse. Might get a more responses if you actually hung out around here and commented my man.

Love. Peace. Metallica.

It’s not a big deal but the haters on here got so worked up about it!:confused:

You come to a forum populated by people who take tattoos seriously, many of whom, including myself, take them as serious expressions of self, art, and that possess an almost spiritual quality. Tattoos and the art involved in them are a part of…[Read more]

Paying for flash is like paying for internet porn….Either pay for it or get it all for free using Google.

You could just use youporn.com. Place has so much free porn that you’ll rub your dick into a nub before you ever seen one tenth of it.

Love. Peace. Metallica.

Plus you gotta be pretty fucking lame to get flash work put on you in the first place. I can’t tell you how fucking stupid you’d have to be to PAY for a piece of flash.

Love. Peace. Metallica.

I’m thinking you could use Giotto’s Arena Chapel as a jumping off point.

Now, obviously, you can’t get ALL of that in there unless you went full back piece, and honestly it wouldn’t fit the style, but the idea is there. It shows the scene from Revelation where Jesus shows back up and separates the goats from the sheep. On his right are those…[Read more]

If I rode, it’d probably be different, but I’m a fucking hazard on a bike. Seriously, I’ve failed the driver’s test 6 times now and wrecked my bike so many times it’s a god damn junk pile…[Read more]

I mean, seriously, it’s horrific. It’s bad enough she’s a terrorist bitch, but you’d have to do her doggy style with her face buried in the pillows, or the restroom floor, or whatever.

Love. Peace. Metallica.

How can Miranda Lawson has such ungodly amazing tits, perfect body, and such a potato shaped face?

Love. Peace. Metallica.

Dude, am I the only one who feels like this thread reads like a j-date profile?

Either way nice tits–err, tats.

Love. Peace. Metallica.

HOLY FUCK KNUCKLES!

That is a SERIOUSLY killer piece of ink my man. Be seriously, SERIOUSLY, fucking proud!

Love. Peace. Metallica.

Man now people are telling me its horrible on these forums, lol. I know it’s not fantastic, it does have a lot of personal meaning to me though.

It’s already a killer piece my man, I’m not sure I’d go for colors. However, if you’re dead set on colors, I’d go with vibrant fire colors, red, orange, with a little blue and white added in.

Love. Peace. Metallica.

Well, it looks like Outlaw and the other forum dude mentioned everything I noticed after a cursory examination, so all I can add is this ain’t a piece of ink you ought to be proud of. It’s on the lower end of mediocre, and the skull is crowded and misshapen.

I’m sorry to say, this is definitely something you’ll want to get covered up in a couple…[Read more]

i wouldnt advise colour at all, stick with grey shade around it, a newer photo would help so we can see how it healed and what shade it turned out, and what actually is it ???? im having trouble making out the actual design

Frankly, I agree that it’s not all that great, but…[Read more]
