the line work isn't completely perfect but i'm gonna go back once it's healed and get some shading and color added

clouds, Wednesday, 8 October 2014 04:14 (nine years ago) link

Nice!

Just started first non-arm piece. It doesn't make sense yet b/c not shaded, but I'm excited. That said, the chest hurt so much worse.

the other day I stood behind a man on the escalator who had a tattoo on his bald patch. It was a tattoo of some writing but I didn't have a chance to read what it said.

"Hair," iirc.

I saw someone with that once and it was very fancy script that said "hair".

xxpost - Ha!

it was longer than that, it was a couple of sentences! I've kept an eye out but I haven't seen him again, and you would really need to standing directly behind him on an escalator to read it as he was quite tall, I'll probably never find out what it said :(

"if you're reading this you're standing behind me on an escalator"

I've been googling various witticisms that one might tattoo on one's baldpatch and there are no results for "how's my balding?" (and then a phone number), so I'm posting this to stake my claim

the inalienable right to point pistols at your own butt

I choose to waive that right.

hope everything goes off okay

how you survive in prison is, first night you are there, you figure out who the hardcases are and go right up to one of them and ask them to give you a pikachu tattoo. after that, no one will fuck with you.

Too amped with the latest sesh not to share.

Norse Jung (Eric H.), Saturday, 1 August 2015 05:51 (eight years ago) link

incredible work!

have you gone to the same artist for all your pieces?

wappy legs (clouds), Sunday, 2 August 2015 23:19 (eight years ago) link

I have. I'm fiercely loyal and he's displayed remarkable versatility.

Norse Jung (Eric H.), Monday, 3 August 2015 03:38 (eight years ago) link

indeed. i might need to make an mlps pilgrimage soon.

wappy legs (clouds), Tuesday, 4 August 2015 16:23 (eight years ago) link

I'm sure I'd appreciate it too!

Norse Jung (Eric H.), Tuesday, 4 August 2015 16:31 (eight years ago) link

thats fucking rad

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Tuesday, 4 August 2015 18:32 (eight years ago) link

can you provide some context on the meaning and symbology there?

It's a trash polka spin on La Jetee: http://www.hulu.com/watch/215917

Norse Jung (Eric H.), Tuesday, 4 August 2015 18:35 (eight years ago) link

Which is my absolute favorite movie and a style of tat I've been wanting to get for a very long time. Looking through the film stills made me realize that the two would go together very harmoniously.

Norse Jung (Eric H.), Tuesday, 4 August 2015 18:36 (eight years ago) link

huh, i've watched la jetee twice before but that went over my head; seeing it now

I was originally going to slip in a maneki-neko from Sans Soleil, but I didn't think it matched the overall aesthetic.

Norse Jung (Eric H.), Tuesday, 4 August 2015 18:43 (eight years ago) link

well that mighta clarified it for me as the cover of the double dvd is the enduring image of those films in my head! which prob says more about me than the films.

I came to this thread to ask why almost every goddamn donut tattoo in this google image search is pink frosted with sprinkles, but I think I found my answer.
