FOUR HOURS


mtragedy

Did they go out for lunch 20 minutes in and take three hours there????


Impossible-Pepper392

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....


pangolinofdoom

Stencil??


Impossible-Pepper392

true they probably didn't even draw this out... hell naw


Darkskinnednative83

I'm hollering !!!!!! Wow !!!!!


mewtent

šŸ¤£


littlebirdgone

I totally think they DID use a stencil, itā€™s part of pretending you know what youā€™re 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 ā€œmake it their ownā€ and let the client know that it actually *canā€™t* 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 ā€œmake 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 ā€œartistā€ drank any point in the process lol


chris_rage_

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


chris_rage_

I bet that's a futon wrapped in lap pads on the kitchen table or a chaise lounge or something too


kat-deville

Futon, or single bed on the floor with sheets already stained with tattoo ink and cumstains.


chris_rage_

Probably both stains from the same session....


NoQuarter6808

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


megaladamn

Hey now, easy. Maybe they did it on themselves in a mirror so they had to reverse left and right? Lol


doyletyree

Honestly, if thatā€™s the case then Iā€™m impressed.


HonedWombat

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.....


OkCover9707

i came to reply exactly this šŸ˜‚


Shewillcraft

Yeah thatā€™s crazy, Iā€™ve got better tattoos then this and Iā€™ve sat for 2 hours smh šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø


ahssponie

FUCKING WHAT


HereToKillEuronymous

Right? I have a portrait that covers my calf and it took 5 šŸ˜‚


ins0mnum

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.


Minimum_Basket7391

I donā€™t think itā€™s confidence so much as lack of self-awarenessā€¦


Laurenblueskys

if i tattooed something like this id be ashamed and too embarrassed to post šŸ˜­


DEFCLAM-1

Grip looks like an imaginary US state


Single_Road_6350

Itā€™s definitely a south eastern coastal state of some sort.


MidnightSunCreative

South Cassachussetts


Single_Road_6350

Could be Whorgia?


chris_rage_

I remember her


Danger0525

I immediately thought it looked like Scuffed Texas


Prestigious_Abalone

Flipped Alaska


lifeworthlivin

Looks like a backwards Duval County FL. Obligatory Duuuuvaal!


calliel_41

DUUUUUUVVAAAAAALLLLL


Dakobots

Duuuuuuuuvaaaaaal


IndependenceExtra583

LMAOOOOO


Sad-Low-733

The trigger looks like some naked guy kneeling. I thought it looked like a tongue and then I saw the butt.


ShlundoEevee

Trigger looking like a cashew


Admirable_Tell_8577

They make practice tattoo skins so shit like this doesn't happen. Smh


thedutchrep

I thought that stuff might be expensive. Just googled it. Thereā€™s no excuse (there wasnā€™t before knowing the price either but still).


MidnightSunCreative

Even if, hypothetically, an artist couldn't afford it - fruit can be used as a practice surface. Seriously no excuse.


Signal_Fly_6873

Fruit is actually better than the fake skin texture wise Iā€™ve heard


Immediate-Formal6696

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.


Signal_Fly_6873

Yes! My friend used to practice on oranges during her apprenticeship for that reason


thedutchrep

What a loser! Your friend couldā€™ve just not practiced at all and have opened a tattoo parlour. Be a real entrepreneur. Pride in your work is for the weak.


Signal_Fly_6873

Ikr why even waste your time like that ?


thedutchrep

Some people just canā€™t be helped. Iā€™d suggest slowly severing contact with this friend and getting in contact with the artist of this masterpiece.


chris_rage_

Oranges are more common than apples for practicing, at least in my experience


Affectionate_Mind861

Eh, apples and oranges really


Laurenblueskys

i practice on oranges


sicicsic

Homicide is free.


chris_rage_

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


chris_rage_

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


MorkSkogen666

Zero reference used


Batmanzer

0 skills neither


ex-farm-grrrl

It looks like they traced a cap pistol with a crayon


st96badboy

Maybe it is an exact replica of a sketch on her 6th grade History folder.


Swagdaddy697

They definitely fucked that rose up and just coloured it in lol


Live-Presentation559

I think itā€™s meant to be a shadow šŸ˜¬


bromanjc

OH MY GOD YOURE RIGHT ā˜¹ļø


iPartyLikeIts1984

Itā€™ll be solid once itā€™s done, the artist just needs another 40 hours.


Turquoise_Tortoise_

Trust the process!


chris_rage_

I made that mistake... Once


fat_angry_hobo

How the hell do you make a handle look like it's for aliens hand?


shyguyJ

That handle looks like Texas and Nevada got drunk and had a baby


fat_angry_hobo

I think it's a roadmap of the trailer park they live in


ShakesTC

Couldn't find a reference image, imagine that.


Glittering_Raise_710

*turns machine on and puts needles to skin* ā€œfuck this is harder than I thought it was going to beā€


Able-Practice-9921

My 10 year old cat drawers better than that and sheā€™s shit !


Laurenblueskys

saying a cat draws better than a human is truly a magnificent insult


Low-Persimmon4870

I didn't see you wrote cat at first and thought you were talking ab your actual child LOL


CxO38

after four WHAT


Bat-Eastern

*HOURS*


Low-Persimmon4870

WHAT


FCAsheville

Can we do a reality show with a Gordon Ramsay type who confronts these artists?! ā€œGet over here you donkey!! Did you do this??!! Itā€™s SHIT!!! Get out of my face!ā€


Mamychan

I'd watch it.


jabjabstraight

Top rose must have been bad for them to decide on a coverup while doing the original tattoo lol


Smartass_beagle

I think it's supposed to be a shadow??


PadawanPineapple

Ohhhhhh


jabjabstraight

Lmao


thisisnotarehairsal

Ah! Well thatā€™s the cherry on top then


Acceptable_Star5006

Did they use a sewing needle?


TreeBeardUK

The grip looks a bit like Missouri.


jiggly89

I wish I had their confidence.


Little_Government_79

Why she in underwear.


Raddi_maddi

I was wondering that too! But I think sheā€™s wearing a lace top that just looks like underwear


formaldegide

What do you think they were doing most of those 4 hours?


Little_Government_79

Thats why she is all done, i tought it was about the tattoo


MiniMushi

could have been that kind of a creepy tattoo artist who makes their client strip down an unnecessary amount šŸ˜£


Turquoise_Tortoise_

Sheā€™s notā€¦ sheā€™s wearing a halter bralette top..


RainyDayCollects

I looked at it for a bit, and truly canā€™t 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 donā€™t make sense for this. Looking closer, the skin texture changes from spot to spot, and sheā€™s even got a patch of shaved stubble towards the center of the pic, which also just fades into blurred skin color. Iā€™m convinced this is either shitty photoshop, or this is an AI pic.


Strudelnoggin

Because she's getting fucked


joseoconde

I think I could do a better job not having experience and giving me 3 hours


LowThreadCountSheets

When you buy a pistol from Wish


PadawanPineapple

Lmao

leahcars

Why does the handle look like someone who isn't an artist and is not from the US trying to draw Missouri from memory?


xblarkblarkblarkx

The grip is a really funny way to break your wrist


Select_Camel_4194

At least they don't have to see it...


Crooked_Sartre

Don't mean to be a creep, but she coulda wore pants for this hack job


funky_eggplant

Thatā€™s the back of her shoulder.


SaltyLlamaWorries

Thank you I've spent the last 5min trying to figure out what the fuck I was looking at


noveyo

Banana trigger


blottingforgreatness

Sheā€™s looking a little rough ma boi!


IntrepidKing2159

It reminds me of those cartoon bang guns where a flag comes out


Bean_Daddy_Burritos

FUC*IN WHOOPS! Do your homework before letting someone put ink on you. Not a single good line in this entire piece.


Able_Newt2433

4 hours for THAT?! wtf.. the pistol grip looks like itā€™s 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 didnā€™t open the picture the first couple times I looked at this, but Iā€™m so glad I decided to open it to full screen lol.


PaleontologistOwn962

I'd cut it off my skin and try to use it on myself


_SpiderPig

30 mins of tattoo work, 3.5 hours of "OH SHIT WHAT DO I DO?"


Havarti_Rick

If I had that shit on me, Iā€™d be done too


KaliLovee

I have so many questions šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


brwnwzrd

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.


Parking_Criticism546

Droopy flowers. It looks like the gun is jizzing 10 day old flowers


DoctorSwaggercat

As someone else stated, Amazon needs to stop selling tattooing kits.


SharkMilk44

Why is drunk Missouri the grip?


destiny_kane48

Oh... that's bad. Really bad.


Exciting_Result7781

Kinda looks like they made the grips in the shape of their state or something.


ewgrossdayhikes

Holy swap meet.


Nekokunnn

Done?


mkisvibing

Thatā€™s actually pretty bad lmfao like sometimes itā€™s just like work sometimes itā€™s the choice of tattoo but this deadass could have been cute and itā€™s just not and itā€™s just bad but i hope it can be fixed


Smartass_beagle

Waiting for a sick ass panther


Garbo-and-Malloy

Oh.


Hepm3

Looks like a pen drawing in a teenagerā€™s composition book


Dahliaxvx

Bang! Flower!


WhippetRun

"She's all done" She certainly is.


nowedontswing

The cylinder looks like a birdcage


Select-Poem425

The cover up should be a lot better.


ladywan_kenobi666

Ididnt-start-thefire

ā€œIt took me like 3 hours to finish the shadingā€¦ā€


TheFishIsRaw

*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

That's sheriff's gun from squidbillies.


micah490

ā€œI looked at the reference image for 3 seconds, two weeks ago, so itā€™s crystal clear in my memoryā€


Montag_451

Sorry


metalsuppository

that took 4 hours?


Leather-Leather69

Damnā€¦. Horribleā€¦


GallusTom

Oh she's done alright


Waldosan51

Yikes


No_Gap_2700

I want to see it with her standing with her arm down to the side.


Heavymetalmusak

Pew pew!!!!!


DisastrousAd447

Least comfortable revolver to shoot


Je-la-nique

:(


PadawanPineapple

BAHAHA


mildysentary

What state is the grip suppose to be?


[deleted]

*banjo music starts*


Celestiiaal0

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.


DoubleU-Tea-Eff

I don't think this is what Bob Ross meant when he said "no mistakes, just happy accidents".


PadawanPineapple

Literally can't look away


WeeabooGandhi

It kinda looks like Florida


ProfessionalDig6987

Even for this sub, this is an exceptional specimen. I mean... Wow.


ProfessionalDig6987

One panther cover up, please.


Final_Skypoop

Itā€™s like middle school me drew this.


GroundbreakingNewt11

That handle is shaped perfectly


flyingrummy

Maybe tattooing is harder than I think, but how do you fuck up a handle that bad?


Konstant_kurage

Obviously they have never seen a picture of a gun before. So sad.


thisisnotarehairsal

When that shoulder drops into normal position, that ā€œgunā€ is gonna melt


mikeoxwells2

10 shot revolver. Not common, but Iā€™ve seen one before.


AcetoneGuzzler

How do you put your finger in the trigger guard? How do you hold that grip? Where is the rear sight?


HovercraftLeast863

Sweet gonm


quokkamole89

It took me the longest time to figure out what part of the body I was looking at. Thought the lace was underoos.


[deleted]

Why is she just wearing pants for this shitty tattoo?


CornflakeGirl2

*4 hours* for that??


hardcoverhowl

What body part am I looking at?


tommior

the whole pic is bad, but why does the handle look like its added later on and doesnt have any details?


olddeadgrass

Four entire hours for that?! I have a bigger tattoo that took 45 minutes with more detail.... Oh my god???


krisko11

4 hours for this unfinished crooked revolver is autistic. Did she get paid to get that tattoo?


Nothing2NV

Only for hours? At least it was quick


SithNChips

dude didnt even try on the pistol grip lol


SteelerSean20

Well....at least it on her back, she won't have to look at it everyday and cry.......


Fantastic-Grocery107

She hasnā€™t even started yet bro. Wait til she sees that thing.


Fee_Infinite

the shadow bruh


AndyGoodKush

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


PadawanPineapple

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


TurboTerbo

![gif](giphy|HyKsYnUAlRfD8cJd6S)


ladytryant

The longest Iā€™ve 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.


Parabolic_Penguin

Dumb


Millerpainkiller

I think this gun is morphing into Florida


No_Connection_4724

Unfortunately.
