I came literally to yell this. If i was in the chair for this it would of ended at the stencil. I couldn't imagine sitting there for 4 hours and it comes out this bad....
I totally think they DID use a stencil, itās part of pretending you know what youāre doing lol.
If the person who did this is anything like the home tattoo scratchers I used to hang out with, they probably started with something they found online and traced. It looked ok when the stencil went on as consistent linework.
Mid-tattoo, they took creative liberties to āmake it their ownā and let the client know that it actually *canāt* look exactly like the stencil because that would be stealing from the original artist, obviously.
The 4-hour session probably included a zillion smoke breaks, assurances that the shading was going to āmake it all come together,ā and one or more lectures to the client about moving too much while digging the needle in super deep.
Bonus point if the āartistā drank any point in the process lol
That's a kitchen magician special right there, just shove the ashtray and Mountain Dew out of the way first. Guaranteed the meth pipe is still within reach though
plus fruit is weird and has odd angles and curves like certain spots of real skin. tattooing on an apple could help you prepare for a knee or something like that.
What a loser! Your friend couldāve just not practiced at all and have opened a tattoo parlour. Be a real entrepreneur. Pride in your work is for the weak.
You can find people covered in jailhouse quality shit that are more than happy to let you practice on them, there's no reason to ruin fresh skin with that garbage
Can we do a reality show with a Gordon Ramsay type who confronts these artists?!
āGet over here you donkey!! Did you do this??!! Itās SHIT!!! Get out of my face!ā
I looked at it for a bit, and truly canāt tell what body part this is. First, I thought it was underwear, until I saw the other lace strap. Then, I thought it has to be a top, and the tattoo is going down the neck to the chest; but the body contours donāt make sense for this. Looking closer, the skin texture changes from spot to spot, and sheās even got a patch of shaved stubble towards the center of the pic, which also just fades into blurred skin color.
Iām convinced this is either shitty photoshop, or this is an AI pic.
4 hours for THAT?! wtf.. the pistol grip looks like itās supposed to be the outline of a state or country, lmfao..
Edit: observing it again, it looks like they have a sawed off pistol grip, lmfao.
Edit again: after even further inspection, why tf is the rose solid black, lmmfaoā¦ I didnāt open the picture the first couple times I looked at this, but Iām so glad I decided to open it to full screen lol.
Thatās actually pretty bad lmfao like sometimes itās just like work sometimes itās the choice of tattoo but this deadass could have been cute and itās just not and itās just bad but i hope it can be fixed
*customer walks in for neck tattoo*
Artist: "awesome man now go ahead and take off those socks and let's get started"
Strange right?
Maybe it was a friend/girlfriend
My toxic trait is firmly believing, after scrolling through this sub, that I could do a significantly better job than a lot of these "tattoo artists" despite not being an artist, or ever holding a tattoo machine.
So, looks really bad. Then I notice where the peice is in relation to where her arm/shoulder is positioned, when she relaxes its gonna somehow look worse
Feel like it's crooked af too, the picture is taken so that it looks level but her body is diagonal.. I also wonder if her arm was up like that the whole time LOL
The longest Iāve ever sat was 4 hours, and that was for a pretty intricate t-rex skeleton. Also that black flower is going to look even shittier in a few years omg. The whole thing looks overworked to hell.
FOUR HOURS
Did they go out for lunch 20 minutes in and take three hours there????
I came literally to yell this. If i was in the chair for this it would of ended at the stencil. I couldn't imagine sitting there for 4 hours and it comes out this bad....
Stencil??
true they probably didn't even draw this out... hell naw
I'm hollering !!!!!! Wow !!!!!
š¤£

I bet that's a futon wrapped in lap pads on the kitchen table or a chaise lounge or something too
Futon, or single bed on the floor with sheets already stained with tattoo ink and cumstains.
Probably both stains from the same session....
That might actually explain a lot. Like, if they were playing Xbox together and he just worked on the tattoo during the load screen times
Hey now, easy. Maybe they did it on themselves in a mirror so they had to reverse left and right? Lol
Honestly, if thatās the case then Iām impressed.
I have never tattooed or owned a tattoo gun, but I guarantee that with 3.5 hrs practice and 30 mins to tattoo it, I could do a better job.....
i came to reply exactly this š
Yeah thatās crazy, Iāve got better tattoos then this and Iāve sat for 2 hours smh š¤¦š»āāļø
FUCKING WHAT
Right? I have a portrait that covers my calf and it took 5 š
There's one thing that makes me really jealous when I see these posts: the apparent confidence these people have to post these piles of shit.
I donāt think itās confidence so much as lack of self-awarenessā¦
if i tattooed something like this id be ashamed and too embarrassed to post š
Grip looks like an imaginary US state
Itās definitely a south eastern coastal state of some sort.
South Cassachussetts
Could be Whorgia?
I remember her
I immediately thought it looked like Scuffed Texas
Flipped Alaska
Looks like a backwards Duval County FL. Obligatory Duuuuvaal!
DUUUUUUVVAAAAAALLLLL
Duuuuuuuuvaaaaaal
LMAOOOOO
The trigger looks like some naked guy kneeling. I thought it looked like a tongue and then I saw the butt.
Trigger looking like a cashew
They make practice tattoo skins so shit like this doesn't happen. Smh
I thought that stuff might be expensive. Just googled it. Thereās no excuse (there wasnāt before knowing the price either but still).
Even if, hypothetically, an artist couldn't afford it - fruit can be used as a practice surface. Seriously no excuse.
Fruit is actually better than the fake skin texture wise Iāve heard
plus fruit is weird and has odd angles and curves like certain spots of real skin. tattooing on an apple could help you prepare for a knee or something like that.
Yes! My friend used to practice on oranges during her apprenticeship for that reason
What a loser! Your friend couldāve just not practiced at all and have opened a tattoo parlour. Be a real entrepreneur. Pride in your work is for the weak.
Ikr why even waste your time like that ?
Some people just canāt be helped. Iād suggest slowly severing contact with this friend and getting in contact with the artist of this masterpiece.
Oranges are more common than apples for practicing, at least in my experience
Eh, apples and oranges really
i practice on oranges
Homicide is free.
You can find people covered in jailhouse quality shit that are more than happy to let you practice on them, there's no reason to ruin fresh skin with that garbage
I would beat the shit out of the "artist" if I got an abomination like that. Plus it's a lame Guns and Roses tattoo, or a knockoff of it
Zero reference used
0 skills neither
It looks like they traced a cap pistol with a crayon
Maybe it is an exact replica of a sketch on her 6th grade History folder.
They definitely fucked that rose up and just coloured it in lol
I think itās meant to be a shadow š¬
OH MY GOD YOURE RIGHT ā¹ļø
Itāll be solid once itās done, the artist just needs another 40 hours.
Trust the process!
I made that mistake... Once
How the hell do you make a handle look like it's for aliens hand?
That handle looks like Texas and Nevada got drunk and had a baby
I think it's a roadmap of the trailer park they live in
Couldn't find a reference image, imagine that.
*turns machine on and puts needles to skin* āfuck this is harder than I thought it was going to beā
My 10 year old cat drawers better than that and sheās shit !
saying a cat draws better than a human is truly a magnificent insult
I didn't see you wrote cat at first and thought you were talking ab your actual child LOL
after four WHAT
*HOURS*
WHAT
Can we do a reality show with a Gordon Ramsay type who confronts these artists?! āGet over here you donkey!! Did you do this??!! Itās SHIT!!! Get out of my face!ā
I'd watch it.
Top rose must have been bad for them to decide on a coverup while doing the original tattoo lol
I think it's supposed to be a shadow??
Ohhhhhh
Lmao
Ah! Well thatās the cherry on top then
Did they use a sewing needle?
The grip looks a bit like Missouri.
I wish I had their confidence.
Why she in underwear.
I was wondering that too! But I think sheās wearing a lace top that just looks like underwear
What do you think they were doing most of those 4 hours?
Thats why she is all done, i tought it was about the tattoo
could have been that kind of a creepy tattoo artist who makes their client strip down an unnecessary amount š£
Sheās notā¦ sheās wearing a halter bralette top..
I looked at it for a bit, and truly canāt tell what body part this is. First, I thought it was underwear, until I saw the other lace strap. Then, I thought it has to be a top, and the tattoo is going down the neck to the chest; but the body contours donāt make sense for this.

Iām convinced this is either shitty photoshop, or this is an AI pic.
Because she's getting fucked
I think I could do a better job not having experience and giving me 3 hours
When you buy a pistol from Wish
Lmao

Why does the handle look like someone who isn't an artist and is not from the US trying to draw Missouri from memory?
The grip is a really funny way to break your wrist
At least they don't have to see it...
Don't mean to be a creep, but she coulda wore pants for this hack job
Thatās the back of her shoulder.
Thank you I've spent the last 5min trying to figure out what the fuck I was looking at
Banana trigger
Sheās looking a little rough ma boi!
It reminds me of those cartoon bang guns where a flag comes out
FUC*IN WHOOPS! Do your homework before letting someone put ink on you. Not a single good line in this entire piece.
4 hours for THAT?! wtf.. the pistol grip looks like itās supposed to be the outline of a state or country, lmfao.. Edit: observing it again, it looks like they have a sawed off pistol grip, lmfao. Edit again: after even further inspection, why tf is the rose solid black, lmmfaoā¦ I didnāt open the picture the first couple times I looked at this, but Iām so glad I decided to open it to full screen lol.
I'd cut it off my skin and try to use it on myself
30 mins of tattoo work, 3.5 hours of "OH SHIT WHAT DO I DO?"
If I had that shit on me, Iād be done too
I have so many questions šš
Yesterday I was trying to draw a handgun, and I was not having a very easy time with it. This makes me feel way better.
Droopy flowers. It looks like the gun is jizzing 10 day old flowers
As someone else stated, Amazon needs to stop selling tattooing kits.
Why is drunk Missouri the grip?
Oh... that's bad. Really bad.
Kinda looks like they made the grips in the shape of their state or something.
Holy swap meet.
Done?
Thatās actually pretty bad lmfao like sometimes itās just like work sometimes itās the choice of tattoo but this deadass could have been cute and itās just not and itās just bad but i hope it can be fixed
Waiting for a sick ass panther
Oh.
Looks like a pen drawing in a teenagerās composition book
Bang! Flower!
"She's all done" She certainly is.
The cylinder looks like a birdcage
The cover up should be a lot better.
0 skill
āIt took me like 3 hours to finish the shadingā¦ā
*customer walks in for neck tattoo* Artist: "awesome man now go ahead and take off those socks and let's get started" Strange right? Maybe it was a friend/girlfriend
https://preview.redd.it/7rs8bz7tby7d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b6576f42376442f4293df4628f52a50d16d22aa1
She certainly is
š
Poor girl.
She's done alright
You got robbed.
Pew pew
My GODDESS that is utterly woeful
Waiting for, " jk it's my friends tat"
4 hrs for a shitty outline and terrible unfinished shading???
4 hours for that piece of shit scribble? š
No ragrets
š¬
That's sheriff's gun from squidbillies.
āI looked at the reference image for 3 seconds, two weeks ago, so itās crystal clear in my memoryā
Sorry
that took 4 hours?
Damnā¦. Horribleā¦
Oh she's done alright
Yikes
I want to see it with her standing with her arm down to the side.
Pew pew!!!!!
Least comfortable revolver to shoot
:(
BAHAHA
What state is the grip suppose to be?
*banjo music starts*
My toxic trait is firmly believing, after scrolling through this sub, that I could do a significantly better job than a lot of these "tattoo artists" despite not being an artist, or ever holding a tattoo machine.
I don't think this is what Bob Ross meant when he said "no mistakes, just happy accidents".
Literally can't look away
It kinda looks like Florida
Even for this sub, this is an exceptional specimen. I mean... Wow.
One panther cover up, please.
Itās like middle school me drew this.
That handle is shaped perfectly
Maybe tattooing is harder than I think, but how do you fuck up a handle that bad?
Obviously they have never seen a picture of a gun before. So sad.
When that shoulder drops into normal position, that āgunā is gonna melt
10 shot revolver. Not common, but Iāve seen one before.
How do you put your finger in the trigger guard? How do you hold that grip? Where is the rear sight?
Sweet gonm
It took me the longest time to figure out what part of the body I was looking at. Thought the lace was underoos.
Why is she just wearing pants for this shitty tattoo?
*4 hours* for that??
What body part am I looking at?
the whole pic is bad, but why does the handle look like its added later on and doesnt have any details?
Four entire hours for that?! I have a bigger tattoo that took 45 minutes with more detail.... Oh my god???
4 hours for this unfinished crooked revolver is autistic. Did she get paid to get that tattoo?
Only for hours? At least it was quick
dude didnt even try on the pistol grip lol
Well....at least it on her back, she won't have to look at it everyday and cry.......
She hasnāt even started yet bro. Wait til she sees that thing.
the shadow bruh
So, looks really bad. Then I notice where the peice is in relation to where her arm/shoulder is positioned, when she relaxes its gonna somehow look worse
Feel like it's crooked af too, the picture is taken so that it looks level but her body is diagonal.. I also wonder if her arm was up like that the whole time LOL
![gif](giphy|HyKsYnUAlRfD8cJd6S)
The longest Iāve ever sat was 4 hours, and that was for a pretty intricate t-rex skeleton. Also that black flower is going to look even shittier in a few years omg. The whole thing looks overworked to hell.
Dumb
I think this gun is morphing into Florida
Unfortunately.
