So this is my 3rd tattoo(cat) and first large one pre shading, any tips?
You and every other person with tattoos is a real life clown.

Please be kidding... Please be a sharpie-doodle! Those are terrible, and I'm not saying that just to be rude!

There's a fucking sharpie on the background
You're fucking yourself with those line sizes-- they are going to blow out over time because you have no formal teaching about the optimal depth of penetration. Apprentice for 5 years then you may start to get a feeling of how to properly tattoo.
Or fuck up your body for a couple months before you get bored and find a laser removal guy who charges a flat rate for as long as you can sit.

It's fucked how not having tattoos is more rebellious today than having them.
>>2510367
You are neither a tribal warrior nor in a prison gang.
You dont need a tattoo.

>doing shit to be rebellious
>having a need for something
You guys must be a blast at parties.

Has zero to do with rebellion. Tattoos are something that you permanently mark yourself with to seek the approval of other's. Tattoos are an extreme form of conformity. People that are willing to perform self mutilation to conform to persona. No matter how you stretch it tattoos are not for the person receiving the tattoo, they are for the onlooker.

How do you figure anyone gets a tattoo to seek approval? Sounds like a lot of projection, honestly. People get tattoos for the same reason they draw whatever it is they draw: they think it's cool. I really wouldn't read any further into it, especially if you're an armchair psychologist.

i'm going to get a back tattoo on saturday.
something modest and small that i dont intend for anyone else to really ever see, it's a reminder to keep myself balanced and disciplined. It might be for the onlooker but the onlooker in this case is myself.
It's not trashy or "sick ink", just something small and personal. I don't think that it could be further from rebellious but there are some people who would insist that i'm a retarded edgelord hipster.
oh who am i kidding im a pot smoking mountain dew swilling no life who just wants some fukn dank tats (that's your (you) by the way, enjoy it.)
Got this for my son Ethan
E - greek letter Sigma (for the look, not the sound) since I'm a math guy
T - wife and I like Disney, so T from Toy Story
H - wife and I played scrabble a lot when we first met
A - Sergeant in USMC (rank insignia)
N - music notes for wife who sings and plays piano
Going for a "he's the product of her and me" kind of thing
is that a cabbage?

>i take everything literally
it's a symbol, knowing its there is enough.
just because ou dont understand something doesnt mean it's stupid anon

Why not just set a daily calendar alert on your phone if you are that forgetful?
Sorry, do you have alzheimer's?
>>2514938
I would have used an "E"
>>2514938

>T
>H
>A
>N

Can you stop being a nitpicking contrarian for a second?
Do you think >>2514938
has "Ethan" written on his leg because he'll forget his son's name? No, it symbolizes his love for his son and wife. Similarly, my tattoo symbolizes inner strength and balance, and the all-encompassing abstraction and absurdity of existence. But feel free to assume people are retards for making choices in life that dont parallel your own, it is a free country after all.
