The Crow

I haven't gotten a tattoo in a year, and have been feeling the itch. I have an appointment for this upcoming Wednesday. I decided to get two big crows with lightning bolts, they'll probably on my ribs, unless I wuss out. It's kind of a memorial tattoo for my dad, but not totally. Anyway, I'll post pictures and you guys can feel free to make fun of them as much as you want. In anticipation of my appointment, I decided to do some looking around for terrible crow tattoos. I found a lot.

Full disclosure: I was really into The Crow when I was a teenager. Here's a photo of me being totally awesome when I was 13 or 14.

I don't have any ridiculous makeup on in that photo, but I definitely went to school made-up like the crow. The movie was filmed in my hometown (Wilmington, NC) and I went on a pilgrimage to see where Brandon Lee died. I listened to the soundtrack to the movie every day. I still really enjoy the movie. Regardless of my history with the movie, my crow tattoo idea has nothing to do with the movie The Crow. These people's tattoos do. There are so many sweet crow images out there, I don't know why they picked these out....

So here you go. Awful crow tattoos!


I think this crow is supposed to be on fire? It just looks blobby to me.


This is supposed to be the Crow logo, but it's not executed well...


This one too. Plus! Bonus barbed wire armband! I love seeing terrible versions of the same thing. (See my zombie jesus and wizard posts for more)


Crow mask + tribal + cross = goldmine!


Scarred Kanji + flaming crow = bigger goldmine!



I don't understand the spacing and sizing on this. It looks like the tattoos just got slapped on completely randomly. Also the little spritzes of red and yellow are a real nice touch. What is the black blob on the left? Can anyone tell?


skldfskdjf Brandon Lee does not look like that!


And he really, really does not look like this!!!

I hope you enjoyed this confessional edition of awful tattoos. Check back next week to make fun of my crow tattoo!

Bad straightedge tattoos volume one: text

I have a confession to make. I secretly love bad straightedge tattoos (maybe because I am straightedge? probably because they are just goofy). I actually secretly love all bad tattoos, that's why I do this blog. But I have a special soft spot in my heart for three x's that are stick-and-poked into someone's ankle. Many people get them, many people regret them later, but they are still awesome. These abominations, however, are not so awesome. Behold: the bad straightedge tattoos, volume one.


Bad font, bad linework, bad coloring, bad placement, just a generally bad idea.


Ditto! Only worse.


Why did he decide to put the text in a pool of water? I don't understand!


And finally- starship troopers straight edge dude. I have to admit this is actually pretty awesome, because I too love science fiction and not drinking. I hope this guy had a sense of humor about what he was doing, because that instantly turns this questionable tattoo into a hilarious and rad one.

If you have any regrettable edge tattoos (or any other kind of regrettable tattoo, for that matter) feel free to email me: alice@vivalavinyl.org.

who ya gonna call?

Man oh man... I loved the movie too, but why?

Piccolo

Dragon Ball tattoo gone bad... 

Green Goblin

Well, I hope it's a green goblin and not someones mother-in-law or something ..

Taz Tattoo Collection

First  of all, you have to be drunk to get a Taz tattoo, but you have to be blind drunk to get it screwed. 

sources for this post are totally random so I will list it here, here, here , here and here

Wolverine

Or rather a wolverine-like blob, c'mon. How can you screw an X-man tat ? really ...

Rocky Horror Tat

Magnificent ...

Shaggy With A Daisy

Im not sure if this is a tattoo, it looks like one and sure is ugly.

Gollums

The impossible has been achieved, Gollum the epitome of ugliness, even uglier

Jesus Alien Resurrection

I'm speech less, once again. 

Terminator

I don't know why (maybe because of the lips) but he's strangely feminine for a Terminator

Rocky

You may believe it or not but he claims that it's Rocky Balboa, looks more like Freddy Kruger to me.

Sesame Street Tats

Some far from being good Sesame Street Tats. Shouldn't Oscar be the grouchy one ? Why is he smiling, maybe with the "Mike" heart he  eventually came out of the closet so he can finally be happy.

The Incredible Hulk and Wolverine

Some old school comics fan's backpiece. This tattoo doesn't have a bright future lines will fade and overall image will collapse into a indistinguishable pulp

Here's the original :

Pipi Langstrump

A really obnoxious face, but the ink spills look realistic

Horrific Backpiece

There's a lot going down there. Dracula is doing the Uncle Sam Needs You, Frankie has this sneaky look towards him, and a woman in the middle is walking on a road with face !

Cartoon Mr. T

Overweight shirtless and with funny shoes, but why the caption says Mr. Tees ?
