Japanese Dragon Tattoo

Japanese dragon tattoo represents design which it is liked by all people the present day, especially in American and its surroundings.
most of japan make unique pictures or design, Dragon tattoo for example, do not any people can pattern design or of illustrate Dragon, because Dragon might not in this world. there is which in dragon definition as snake fly, there is also which definition if dragon have wing like bat.

" Top-Drawer matter to make tattoo is safety of own self ( body) when in course of making of tattoo". because most wrong people chosen place to in tattoo.
we have to ensure that used needle have to be sterile ( needle which have never using by previous others) and the tattoo artist do not conduct “ dipping of doable” ( Plunging needle into inking bottle which commonly use at more than one patient

“ Have been reported by the existence of related/relevant between dipping of doable with hepatitis and this is real cause of closing of tattoo salon inTown of New York more or less in the year 1960-an,” Geronemus tell to Reuters Heath. “ This time there [is] report about C hepatitis referring to location of tattoo and that can inclined to disease of degradation of body endurance

Searcher of tattoo have to know that is “ slimmest of regulation” arranging the problem of tattoo. “ FDA ( Director General of POM American) [do] not too is obliging of pig mental regulation what peaceful and can be used by at husk,” Geronemus warn. AN idea which good to thinking of future when making tattoo. Many employer which frown upon seen tattoo at work, become to think of small and can be hidden when making tattoo, he/she said
it is true big tattoo will seen very beautiful and strike, however seeing loss of big tattoo, we will not earn professional work if others see our tattoo which is fearful as to others. become to make rather small tattoo or which snugly its size measure with body we love to tattoo.

Early stage make this tattoo by making pattern on paper which later then plagiarized by in part of body to tattoo. After pattern formed by hence made outline by using six needle sew which is joined become one

Making of external line of tattoo require six needle sew while to fill its color is required twelve needle sew which is joined become one. Process of this outline require high correctness because if exit of pattern will destroy form of tattoo

Appliance form of tattoo this like martial only the difference with needle head sew. Six needle sew which bound become one plunged into ink and later then start thousands of rough poke tail into body. Appliance jetty of tattoo bleated with wood repeatedly, once blow will make needle jab flesh and parked ink in husk. Blow wood Ritme of tattoo's tools become separate rhythm each;every blow will leave to feel pain which initially very and old too long lose because us become impenetrably
Secretory blood and dirt of ink which is broken have too often cleaned pattern to which have been drawn clear and will seen to respect. Making of tattoo outline eat time about one hour. After outline finish hence begun admission filling of pattern with ink. Needle changed with twelve new needle. Way of which is same to be used to planted ink in husk. Pin which is more making planted color more and more widely. Block color systems for the admission filling of this tattoo eat time almost two hours.

More stick-n-poke radness

Do you remember the post I did about the young man with the butterflies on his feet and the ridiculous home tattoos? Well, he showed me some photos of his friend's tattoos. And boy, are they ridiculous!

First up- booyah! arm!

This poor person has "booyah!" on their arm not once, but at least SEVEN TIMES! I can also see a pterodactyl, a ghost, and "USA GOES UNDEFEATED".


I wish I knew the story behind this one. "Saves Latin"??? ... maybe I don't really want to know.


And this. What is this? An alien-insect with patriotic wings riding a scooter with hello kitty with a mustache in the back? WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?

Seriously, the more I see tattoos like this, the more I shake my head and start to wonder if they are really works of genius instead of being the worst tattoos in the world.

Cats with no ears

I just took in two of the cutest cats ever, and so I have had cats on the brain lately. Because of this, I thought I'd do some searching for bad cat tattoos. I am SURE there are worse ones out here, but this is what I found- three cat tattoos without any ears. Why would you ever draw a cat without ears? It just makes them look like weird aliens!


This looks like a Lisa Frank drawing without the pizazz.


This is the most half-assed tattoo I have possibly ever seen. Why are the eyes sideways? Why are the whiskers blue? Where are the ears? So many unanswered questions!


This is a mix of the lady's five cats and some human (the right eye). Why the human has a lazy eye, I don't know. I also think the cat is actually the bark of a tree.


And finally, while not technically terrible, this butterfly-cat holding a flower and inexplicably wearing pants makes me laugh.

Bad chest tattoos

I think there is a trend of getting bad chest tattoos with bloody writing. Please tell me this isn't so, and it's just these three unfortunate dudes.


"All Hope Is Gone" -- not a very good thing to get when you're young (I cropped his face out of the photo, he looks like he is 17). Also what's the logo on the right? I assume these are bad lyrics of some sort.


"Blood Is Forever" -- I guess this is a way of celebrating family, but there is surely a much better way to do it. Also the bloody cracked Batman logo is an a+ addition there, buddy.


"Pull The Trigger Bitch" -- sdkjfhsdk I can seriously not think of a worse thing to get tattooed on your chest for all time. Do you think he will ever have sex with anyone ever again? I guess he'll just have to keep his shirt on indefinitely!

A PSA against home tattooing

I've posted some awesomely ridiculously terrible and rad stick-n-poke tattoos here in the past, and I will again. I have a soft spot for bad tattoos that friends do to each other. This one, however, is pretty inexcusable, and shows how home tattooing is generally a really really really really bad idea.



ow ow ow ow ow ow ow. This makes me hurt all over just looking at it. So scratchy!!!! I can't even imagine what it must look like healed. I think my favorite part is that he only has one eyeball.

More Zombies

Please excuse me for posting about my own tattoos so much this week, but I can't help myself! I'll post some legitimately terrible tattoos soon, don't worry!

You guys should all know by now that I am fascinated by flash tattoos and tattoos that come from the same drawing but look different. The tattoo I got on Friday was part of a Friday the 13th special, where you could get any flash zombie on a sheet for $40. I chose the classic coming-out-of-the-grave-zombie, and it turns out three of my friends went for the same thing. One of my friends and I got sxe zombies, my other two friends got the zombie as he was on the sheet. Here are all four zombies for comparison (done by three different artists, see if you can spot the two that were done by the same person).

Kat Power

Kat Von D might get a lot of criticism in the tattoo world, but some of her portraits are still phenomenal. These are two of my favourites of hers, Sharon Tate and Eliza Dushku respectively.

sxe god free zombie

So I finally did it. I finally got brainwashed by my bad tattoo blog and got a bad tattoo. AND I LOVE IT!



He is a straight edge god free zombie, in honor of Friday the 13th. I love him because he's just like all the rad old metal zombies that I looooooove and simultaneously make fun of on here. Done by Alex at Three Kings in Brooklyn, NY (who is an amazing tattoo artist, please do not for one second think that I am saying his work is bad!).
