Oh... umm...
I don't really like it. Your name looks SO huge on your arm, plus I'd never get a name tatoo'd on myself. I mean, I love myself but not to the point where imma ink my name on my skin.

But hey like someone said, if you ever forget your name (or whoever David is), you'll remember again when you glance at your arm.

[quote=EtherXFayt]That's not a red glow. Thats what happens when you get a tattoo, its from irritation. After being poked with a sharp needle for hours on end, your skin is like raw meat (or at least it feels that way), so yes, its that way when you first get a tattoo. It disappears though.

@bicced: Hmm, ehh thats pretty cool. Sounds like a rather cool tattoo, I'd like to see it somehow, but somehow I feel as if you'd think I'm creepy for asking. Eh, I just have a thing for art.

This is me, just a few months ago. I actually uploaded this to basil as well.[/quote]

Beautiful shading done on yours.

You made me chucke C:.

1. If you get a tattoo and ask what others think, you didn't think enough about getting one.
2. It's too big.
3. Placement is bad.
4. How in the world did the tattoo-artist not reject your request? But then again, it looks like a beginner made it...

[quote=Wiziii]Sorry TS, but I kind of have to agree on this one. The lettering just doesn't look very clean and precise.
However I am comparing this to [url=http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q43/sixtyyninee/IMG00015-20101119-1754.jpg?t=1295919624]my tattoo[/url] a few months back.[/quote]

God that's perfect caligraphy. It looks like they printed it right into your arm.

I agree with that you guys said.

I actually think it looks really good, but like the other guy said, your tattoo artist must not be someone who's good at recognizing font types, as he threw random serifs in places where they shouldn't be, and many of the lines are kind of wonky. But overall, I doubt people are gonna notice that anyway, and it's still very nice. I'm still waiting to get mine because I'm still shopping around for a very, very good tattoo artist.

I'm not gonna lie, what you have right now is horrible.

Best you can hope for right now would be to just start bulking like an animal and at least get size in your arms so it's just lame.

God, it's not only the choice that's so bad, it's the SIZE.

That's a pretty big tatoo. You should constantly poke at it for a few hours.

[quote=bicced]Hun. Ignore them. If you like it, then that's all that counts.
Next time, don't ask people what they think about it. Just show it.
I'd show my Aces of Spades tattoo. But can't upload a buttpic here.
That's p*rn[/quote]

I don't really care wat they say, i only did this cuz im bored n im mainly watching tv and the fact that most of them probably don't have the balls to do it themselves.

[url=http://oi56.tinypic.com/12492k7.jpg]Here. Let me break it down real simple.[/url]
The problem is your artist tried to blend very basic old englishy-calligraphy with some kind of hand writing or something. There's a certain roundness in each letter and that makes the serif serve no purpose, or at least most of the serifs should not be where they are at all. And the lines run thick to thin solely because your fre3inds couldn't keep a steady hand. Did the guy use a stencil or anything? Did he show you lettering before hand or did you walk in off the streets and ask this guy to ruin your arm?

Did your artist trace that? Or freehand? Because I've never seen caligraphy such as that.

"Oh crap I forgot my name"

*Looks at arm*

"Yay "

Srsly though, what a dumb idea for a tattoo. Do you love your name THAT much? Its a pretty common name.

[quote=dappersnake]While I don't actually believe that's you, whoever did get that tattoo, was he riding in a car at the time? That is the jankiest lettering ever.
Just looking through the pages here at people who think the artist did a good job. No. Whoever did this shouldn't legally be able to pick up and use a needle.[/quote]

I don't like it at all...I don't know why anyone would get their own name tattooed on themselves.
But, that's just my opinion, as long you like your tattoo then it's all good.

I don't see why everyone is bashing you, it's your choice to get your name tattooed on your arm. Don't listen to them, if you like it then it really doesn't matter what others think. I have my name tattooed on my back except it's written in Chinese.[/quote]

That sounds like a really sick tattoo, and them bashing at me is funny so it's all good
