Awesome work...

Why not?

times change you find new art etc .. new things that appeal to you, if it was easy enough to remove add new things etc id do it, i really only see the point for kids names (not jolie style lol :D) or relatives that have died etc... if it was something like the prodicted e-ink where it can change etc id do it :)

all in all its just somthing not for me ...but still pretty amazing !
 
Very skilfull, etc. etc.

They all look like strokers. Tatts and body modification are all about being part of a little club - where they once may have shown some originality, they are so over-done, they are now the preserve of sheep and those trying to make themselves look interesting despite inherent dullness.

These impressive pieces of art (and I genuinely think they are impressive and art - although stick a cocktail umbrella in a pooh and call it art and it is!) will look as unsightly and symptomatic of poor decision making in 20 years, as the greeny swallows, anchors and anklets look on common 50 somethings on any tacky European beach.
 
Those tatoos are nothing special, see as good or better in pretty much every Miami Ink episode (no i don't watch it just happened to see the odd 15mins of it while on holiday!).

The MI boys are very good at what they do and it should not be taken for granted that all tattoo artists are that good.
 
The spiderman one is really well done, but it is spiderman.. this is such a stupid thing to tatoo on ones body in my opinion.
 
Goddamn, I love OCUK's predictability :D

Show anyone who knows tattoos and the response is entirely positive for the guy's work (especially considering the fact that he is only 22 years old), show this merry band of keyboard enthusiasts and you get the usual tripe about 'they will regret it', 'what about when they're 60?' and 'that's average'.

PS: Miami Ink is crap, the artists are average at best (that's a genuine average) and that show and it's ilk are ruining an industry.
 
Why not?

Apart from when they were misused by an Austrian in the first half of the twentieth century, they have stood for nothing but positivity for millenia and have been found in almost all ancient civilisations.

I think that's the best post you've ever made.

Yeah, tattoos have been played out for the last five thousand plus years...Everyone whose been inked in that time is just a sheep! Stick it to the man!

“Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for the things we did not do that is inconsolable.”

Plus the fact that modern inks and methods virtually negate the 'green ink' thing...
