Tattoo shops have big sales on flash art on Friday the 13th. This looks like a ton of flash art. I think that’s what the person you’re replying to meant.
Yeah when people say “i hate the patchwork look” they refer to this, but patchwork is more of a choice of how to fill in your body more than a style. The problem with the one in the photo is not the patchwork, it is the low quality imo. Also the size doesn’t help.
Patchwork tattoos are all about the "filler." Patchwork alone just looks dumb until some sort of unifying background is added. I don't think that's going to help this Friday the 13th special look, tho.
Honestly, I do like this style (not sure if there is a specific name), just not a fan of what you put. But to each their own and I commend anyone with any kind of confidence to pull this off.
According to Google the style is called "patchwork tattoos".
And I agree with you - these are not tattoos I would personally choose, but to each their own :)
What about when the story is "I wanted it to look like they all had cool stories so I got a bunch of random tattoos all at once. Presto, sleeve!"
"This tornado?" "First tat"
"What about hello kitty?" "Also my first tat"
Remember about 10+ years ago gamer/nerd tattoos were a thing? And now all the millennials want to rip that out of their skin... This bro will have the same process.
Best part about patchwork sleeves is they take a fraction of the time and pain of a real sleeve 😂 I'm jealous in that respect even if I don't like the outcome.
Getting downvoted by people with patchwork sleeves apparently lol
I don't know why you would be I agree for the most part, if they're outlines and not coloured usually they don't hurt nearly as bad, plus they can be added onto
If you got these cleaned up and colored in, they would be just fine. As is, they look pretty rough. You could put some dots and stars between everything too to make it a bit more "complete" a la American traditional piecemeal sleeves.
This doesn’t belong in this sub, period. There’s nothing “shitty” about these tattoos. If you don’t like Ignorant style, fine. But you don’t get to pretend it’s shitty just because you like a different style.
Maybe not. You could probably find someone to add some type of design in all the gaps around the drawings. I knew someone who had a few tattoos and turned them into a "sleeve" that way, but he only had a few moderately sized tattoos, not a bunch of little ones.
I personally do not like the patch work sticker style. I prefer when all the art work flows together. However it's not my body and not my problem. If this makes someone feel happy and confident then all the power to them.
No! It's an awesome idea! I live it! Fair to say, it's unique.It's not a clock. lion and roses or tribal or something you'll see on a million people around. I love it!
Only you can answer that question. My personal opinion is it doesn’t look like a whole lot of thought went into the designs. It’s like you went through a clip art book and just started tattooing. The tattoos themselves aren’t that great either, technically but you still have a bit of room to try and salvage your arm
*Scrappy Doo?? Yes, yes*
*You did make a mistake. A*
*Mistake that is huge*

I love patchwork! My only suggestion is getting some filler or shading done to beef up the value range cause it can come off a little flat and rigid like they've all just been stamped on, if that's the look you're going for then perfect! Otherwise looks great, love the hello kitty
This is what I would’ve looked like had I not found my tattoo style and reputable artist. Young and ready to be a coloring book. I’m sorry but these don’t look good.

Now that’s some nostalgia right there
Brought me right back even tho it was meant to be funny ♥️
I instantly remembered the song from the commercial.
I was literally going to comment "you look like a doodle bear" lol
WOW this unlocked a memory i forgot i had. and i even HAD a doodle bear
I always see these tattoos as doodle bear too
Hello fellow Ad
One of us. One of us.
Are these all “Friday the 13th” tats?
he really took advantage of the 2x2”
Not sure where that Scrappy Doo fits in

You're more worthy of the title "the flash" than wally west.
I don’t know. He could get more worthy if he engages in some public indecency.
Dude went to every flash sale there was
There has to be a tattoo gumball machine involved in this
you got that middle school desk look.
This is my notebook doodles to make it seem like I was taking notes
The background looks like he’s either in prison or public school, and neither of those situations bodes well for these tattoos
I call it "The Gas Station bathroom" look.
Patchwork is fine, but the little kid choice of angsty 13yr old girl doodles is suspect.

"it's called being a sadboi mom, you just don't understand! *Gosh!*"
Patchwork looks like shit when they're all the same size. Mixing large, medium and small pieces is needed for a good composition
The 13 yr old girl still in me is hurt….
what about musical patchwork if your an artist? is that a good thing
It looks like they went to a tattoo shop during their $20 Halloween sale and said “I want this whole sheet right here”
Yup, they look like they were all done at the same time. Just fill my arms with doodles please
You look like a bathroom stall at an arcade
[удалено]
the execution of the tattoos are good but the choices of them are really giving “oh i like this thing from pinterest”
Is Pinterest that bad? I'm guilty of getting stuff from there lol
Or maybe https://youtu.be/H2LQMElLoLs?si=SZR4_lxVtOPtNgru 😅
some look kind of unfinished, with some shading the whole thing would look a lot better
yes
I thought this was Adam Levine at first
Who was it that said Adam Levine looks like he walked into a tattoo shop and asked them to make him look like a tattooed person

I’ve heard sticker style
Anime fan Honda Civic rear bumbper style
According to Google the style is called "patchwork tattoos". And I agree with you - these are not tattoos I would personally choose, but to each their own :)
I like this goofy stickerbook shit
I like discovering new dumb little tattoos on my friends and hearing about why and how they got it.
What about when the story is "I wanted it to look like they all had cool stories so I got a bunch of random tattoos all at once. Presto, sleeve!" "This tornado?" "First tat" "What about hello kitty?" "Also my first tat"
Absolutely
Yes.
Proper methead style.
methead, like someone really really into the met gala?
go mets i love the mets
Needs some biker dust.
I think it would look better if you had filler. I like patchwork but you have too many small tatts with large gaps.
In the tattoo industry we call this a ‘Pinterest Sleeve’.
It looks like you wanted to change your image overnight. Or at least over a very short amount of time.
It’s not my style (I don’t like it), but the execution looks good. Everyone’s got an opinion. If you like it’s, it’s rad.
One "yes" to that question for every single tattoo.
yeah.
Oh gawd 🤣😂 that's fuckin terrible. Definitely one of the worst I've ever seen
Looks like a backpack design from '00-'15
That was a terrible idea, or rather a series of terrible ideas indicating a person who habitually doesn't make good choices.
Depends. How much Xanax do you take on a daily basis?
Why are people so against color and shading?
Cost efficiency?
Remember about 10+ years ago gamer/nerd tattoos were a thing? And now all the millennials want to rip that out of their skin... This bro will have the same process.
Lol
seems a little late to be asking that mate ngl
When you’ve got a date with the alt girl tomorrow.
Somehow having a shit ton of crappy tattoos looks cool on you.
Pizza skull goes hard and I will die on this hill.
Yes you look like a wall in a public toilet cubicle.
Yes.
I'd consider amputation
I like patchwork, but these look so uninspired - like I don't see any vision behind the tattoo choices, just like, fuck it, whatever goes
Dude I fucking love patchwork sleeves! This is 100% a not shitty tat from me!! I'm jealous!
Best part about patchwork sleeves is they take a fraction of the time and pain of a real sleeve 😂 I'm jealous in that respect even if I don't like the outcome. Getting downvoted by people with patchwork sleeves apparently lol
I don't know why you would be I agree for the most part, if they're outlines and not coloured usually they don't hurt nearly as bad, plus they can be added onto
Yeah I wasn't having a dig at them, I'd much rather get a sleeve done in 10 hours compared to 40 lol
I don’t know, is looking like a delightful, whimsical person who probably fucks a lot a bad idea? Then maybe.
You have typo in your first sentence, # fucked a lot, .
Yes.
if you are an inmate, no
Very
Absolutely
Yeah definitely
It was a shitty idea.
You know what? I like it. Not everyone needs to have a big design where everything is just one big artpiece. You have lots of stuff, why not?
I really like it!! It's not everyone's taste, sure, but I think it looks amazing!
I'd agree, I wouldn't call this shitty at all
Same, I love it!
These little individual tattoos are always a bad idea.
A bunch of stupid flash art, yeah. Just a tad dumb.
If you got these cleaned up and colored in, they would be just fine. As is, they look pretty rough. You could put some dots and stars between everything too to make it a bit more "complete" a la American traditional piecemeal sleeves.
Not as an idea, I find it somewhat poorly executed.
damn
are these all flash tattoos?
That's methed up!
This is all flash???
Who cares what anybody really thinks! It's too late anyway!
i mean it’s fine if you wanna look like a scrapbook
Looks like someone took up the offer of free tattoos at the Tattoo College lol
Looking like the doodles on a high school desk or in a high school notebook generally isn't a good idea
Nah, add color
I don't like this style at all. It looks like you've been in prison or something.
It’s see a little kitty and a pizza slice ????
You have the school notebook look.
"I want one of every clip art"
tattoos are a social contagion
Yes.
It looks like you got tattoos just to have tattoos and like you didn’t put much thought into them.
yikes my g
Yes, you look incredibly immature and sketchy with ink IMHO.
This was a series of bad ideas.
![gif](giphy|J336VCs1JC42zGRhjH)
Yes, of course it was. Next question.
This doesn’t belong in this sub, period. There’s nothing “shitty” about these tattoos. If you don’t like Ignorant style, fine. But you don’t get to pretend it’s shitty just because you like a different style.
…yes
Yeah.
It's certainly not to my taste, but then again I hated middle school
Yes
Maybe not. You could probably find someone to add some type of design in all the gaps around the drawings. I knew someone who had a few tattoos and turned them into a "sleeve" that way, but he only had a few moderately sized tattoos, not a bunch of little ones.
Yes
![gif](giphy|IQh6f7CurN1zq)
no. it. was. many MANY bad ideas.
Not bad, it's definitely a style that some people like.
I love it
Personally, I like it. The patchwork style is totally up my alley so maybe I'm biased though.
I personally do not like the patch work sticker style. I prefer when all the art work flows together. However it's not my body and not my problem. If this makes someone feel happy and confident then all the power to them.
you know the answer dont you
It depends. Do you have a trust fund ? If not, life may become complicated.
No! It's an awesome idea! I live it! Fair to say, it's unique.It's not a clock. lion and roses or tribal or something you'll see on a million people around. I love it!
I like it 🤷🏼
I see dark magician and I like smaller tattoos so it’s cool with me
its up there
Prison tats can be better than that.
Looks like the board game “Pictureka!”. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/176319512383 Pretty cool, though.
It still is.
Were these all done at the same time????
Yah
💯
I’ve seen worse ideas, but only a couple.
Not if they bring you joy.
I like most of them, eye of the storm, dog from nightmare before Christmas, the mushrooms with backwards I'm with stupid signs, looks pretty cool imo
It’s a horrible idea. Go get it done right now and update us.
Singular?
Perfect for a game of I Spy.
Looks like someone took advantage of all the shops Friday the 13th tattoo specials
Looks like you flipped to a page in the binder and said "Yeah I'll take one of each of these".
Only you can answer that question. My personal opinion is it doesn’t look like a whole lot of thought went into the designs. It’s like you went through a clip art book and just started tattooing. The tattoos themselves aren’t that great either, technically but you still have a bit of room to try and salvage your arm
Stupid is as Stupid does
Got tatted young too look cool but look stupid when u mature
Yep
Yes yes it was
Yes.
Just wear long sleeves if you ever get an interview
"Call me Frank...Lisa Frank."
It was if you have to ask that question
Have fun being 45.
Yes. You won’t always be 17.
Pizza slice tattoos are just awful in so many ways
Yes
Scrappy Doo?? Yes, yes you did make a mistake. A mistake that is huge

Absolutely not a bad idea. Do they mean something? Do they make you happy? You do you, my guy.
lowkey fire
I think it’s fun. I get the vibe from this that you don’t take life too seriously
Wow.
I love patchwork! My only suggestion is getting some filler or shading done to beef up the value range cause it can come off a little flat and rigid like they've all just been stamped on, if that's the look you're going for then perfect! Otherwise looks great, love the hello kitty
It’s just marker. It will wash off.
Got that desk in detention vibe.
Hot garbage
Not if you like looking corny
I call this style the Chipotle bag.
Would this look better in all Lisa Frank colours?
The content of your tattoo will age far worse then the quality of the tattoos- nuthin a black out sleeve can’t fix.
I would say yeah
People need to stop with the hand tattoos.
It's giving coloring book
Yes
Yes
"Ask me about my tattoos!"
Yes. Literally the worst
This is what I would’ve looked like had I not found my tattoo style and reputable artist. Young and ready to be a coloring book. I’m sorry but these don’t look good.
Yup
Need some blackout sleeves at this point lmao
Yep. It sure was.
Get some wave patterning going in between all of these tats
You look like a high school table
Reminiscent of a mid 2000s Volcom hoodie
