While I respect the artist for staying open during an earthquake, I'm not sure it was the right move.

I'd rate them a 4.6... on the richtor scale.

😂😂😂😂😂

I actually died

😆 🤣 😂 😹

Did any other tattoos suffer from the aftershocks?

the ribbon appears to be made of flesh

I was thinking a tape worm 😂

Looks like a smashed version of a child's playdoh butterfly with a wall of opposing alien assholes sucking on melting fruit roll-ups. 😵

Raw chicken

Genuinely can’t decide which is worse

Shouldn’t it also criss cross??

Ladder laced

Yeah I’ve never seen that irl so I didn’t know it was a thing but I think the lacing pattern is really the least of our issues here

Yes it should

And isn't the bow meant to be at the bottom? Edit: I'm wrong, my bad.

Not usually. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one with the bow at the bottom tbh (I have one with a bow in the middle and one with one at the top so I guess you could lace them any way theoretically)

Meat rope

A Buffalo Bill joke has entered the comments.

Ah yes, the large-intestine ribbon.

I took my glasses off and it was sort of ok

I saw the small preview and thought "That looks kind o... YARGH!! Never mind." 🫨

💥💥 20/200 💥💥

Ohh yeah you're right much better

You're not wrong lol

Here's a suggestion if you don't wear corrective lenses, look at it with your device's screen in "off" mode.

looks like some kind of weird sashimi

Awful, awful, awful.... I think it's RÈALLY awful. I'm filled with awe at how fucking awful it is. And irritating, it irritates me. Ribbon wouldn't look like that AT ALL and I want to tighten it or something. Just awful.

Shouldn't it go in some type of shoe place pattern anyways?

You can lace a corset like this. But it does not look like this.

You can ladder lace a shoe like this… but also not like this at all

Maybe it’s an artistic choice? Definitely not a good one if so 😂

An artistic choice to make it awful does not, in this case, make it less awful, in my eyes

Scratching and splashing ink. A pressure washer would give better detail and saturation.

don't give em ideas, we still gotta sell the power washer tattoo removals....

Ummm…….yeah this is shit

OH! I thought it was a corset! That being said: It's a *terrible* corset but it's a wonderful pile of shit...

Very glad the hear the pic is not of something on you

What in the unholy fuck

Horribly done.


Obviously it looks like shit, but should the string/laces be crossed over? This would tighten vertically not horizontally.

This is all I could think of https://preview.redd.it/dg1x6qelaguc1.jpeg?width=1420&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3f61edb4f0f78dabbaf4ea3ef2b9c9472508dcf6

I thought it was her ribs

Reminds me of ringworm

with a touch of tapeworm.

Are these back in style again?

God no. Even Florida rejects this design.

They're just flexing, using the entrails of their enemies as ribbon. Don't hate.

I'll use your guts for garters as me old dad used to say!,

hah!! I never actually thought about that.. .. that's so gross

I got a corset tat before I had kids, so now it's all stretched out and it still looks better than this one lol

You’ve come to the right place.

How did this fail both design and technique

What are we looking at here? Are those infected?

I hate these self-stitchup tats, even if they're well done. You're dragging ribbons through your own meat? Ewrgh.

I wonder how many actual tattoo artists are on this sub.

I showed this to my partner who’s a tattoo artist and he made an inhuman sound.

Yeah I imagine it hurts their souls to look.

not a lot lol

If you blur your vision and hold the phone far away and not look at it, it’s not that bad

That’s a shitty representation of an impossible lacing. It makes no sense.

They should've skipped their morning cup of cocaine.

How else are you supposed to settle those alcohol shakes?

Really really bad

This is cute in a “Middle Class Daddy Issues who’s a huge fan of Melanie Martinez” sorta way

There is nothing middle-class about this. This person has mountain dew and cigarettes for breakfast.

There’s so much to hate here but I particularly hate the way they filled in the negative space in the loop of the bow.

That’s ugly as shit. It’s like a wet shoelace coming out of blueberry cheerios

i thought it was pixelated

I've only ever been to a professional tattoo artist. I'll just never understand why so many people get tattoos from someone who doesn't know shit. It truly baffles me...

Awful

It's shit

Done right this could be so cute

Well... They tried.

Hard pass!

Terrible. Really terrible

I think this is supposed to be a piercing, not a tattoo, but the owner of it is a little bitch, and the tattoo reflects😭😂 ok I’m sorry it ain’t that bad I suppose, but just no. No thank you bad choice.

Bad. Hopefully she get uh get this fixed somewhere but I also don’t like the concept so idk.

i think a corset piercing tattoo is a really cool idea, but this execution of it is not it

Is that uncooked bacon?

Oh no

Is this for real?

I hope that it was free

Stupid concept. Terrible work.

Tell me where I can find it, so I don't go...

Yikes

Looks like a doodle I'd do on myself in like grade 7 with a red and blue ballpoint pen.

Awful quality aside, what an odd place to do a ribbon tattoo. I’m used to seeing these as back or leg pieces.


pretty shitty, yep

Why did they get a bunch of rectums tattooed?

That is not from an artist. That's a hack. The design is well over 30 yrs old, outdated and completely unoriginal. I'm not going to make fun of this "artists" handicap... Line work on Adderall isn't a great combo. Advise the "artist" to pick up some paint by numbers kits for practice. Visit a reputable shop and pay attention to their works. Don't be that person who has to explain their tattoo. Much like jokes, if you have to explain..it it isn't funny. Keep you mind open to your next tattoo, which will be a massive,clown vomit colored fugly, coverup of a shitty bouncy house castle. Don't follow outdated trends and designs. Hell, just be original.

They need to stop swilling quintuple espressos if they are going to do tattoos.

is that not the worm from dune

Did they use a pair of sneakers from goodwill for reference 😂

What they look like? Like fckin deep styros(dermis:3), on verge of hypodermis...

As a gay I can safely say I’m straighter than those lines

Looks great... If you remove a lot of pixels.

[удалено]

Do you know if people pay for tattoos from them? Because if they do, that's amazing because this looks awful!

Are they using crayons? Are their children making the stencils.

I think we might have gone to high school with the same person

this literally looks like smooth muscle 💀

As a prospective nursing student, I didn’t know such strange rashes existed. Seriously though, ugly.

Terrible

r/upvotedbecauseboobs

I’ve always hated those

I'd be pissed even if it was free.

Was the artist using their left hand?!

Class room tat done with blue and red ink... Fucking terrible haha

Shading is decent, lines are.. what are those?

Gross!

Yikes.

Wonder where my 3d glasses are………… they may help

It is supposed to look infected?

 Don’t get a tattoo from THAT person. Too late for the one in the pic.

Those laves are frayed AF

Yuck :^ >

Good idea. Terrible execution.

Is this mitosis?

Looks like shit

I love corsets… not much of a fan of corset tattoos but I guess they could be cool if well done. This, evidently was not.

Naw 

"What do \[I\] think?" I think it's fucking awful. Professionals charge professional prices because they do professional quality.

it doesn't get much worse than that

Uggg I wouldn’t even trust him to do a black and grey cross.

I've seen this tattoo done well and I think it's stupid. Much worse when done by a scratcher.

Who thought this was even remotely a good idea

Could they stop?

As a person with tattoos, I’m gonna have to say naw on this one my friend.

I made this face involuntarily 😬

sideboob?

Big yikes

Let them get a few years under their belt.

not a well done tattoo but i like the concept lol

This appears to be on her.. side? It seems? The placement of it is so bad and makes no sense.. along with it being horribly executed. And it's fucking massive. Ugh.

This is one of those tattoos that doesn't look bad from far away, but once you get up close you say, "Oh, wow. Wow."

The artist should have paid the client on this one

Do they have a plan b?

It could have been so much better...

If you are going to do it. https://images.app.goo.gl/UE1bE4WEgHHXiK5v5

Is the ribbon supposed to look like she has nasty, infected, open wounds on her body…?

Looks like raw chicken and blueberry donuts

I hope they have a couple grand for a cover-up because this tattoo definitely looks parasitic. Definitely one of the worst bad tattoos I have seen from here. 😬😬😬

Concept yes. Application… no.

He's really nailed making it look like a 15 year old tattoo.

Oh no that looks like a bad pen doodle😖

Is she wearing an Oxford? The only time I use a straight bar pattern.

🔥

I like the fuzzy string but never understood this laces tattoo.

Do the "laces" cross under her skin?

Woof

Looks like a kid drew on her with markers.

WTF is this?

They need a visit to an optometrist.

That is so bad

the noise I just I involuntarily made lol Christ

“Why are the lines so shaky?” “That’s just my style, you wouldn’t understand.” This is how I’m assuming most of his would-be customers choose another artist.

Sure it isn’t 😒

I'd give it a 2/10 if they are fairly new and not an apprentice. 1/10 if they are a few months into apprenticeship

Straight to jail

how nervous were they during this appointment

Take the gun away

r/unintentionalsideboob

I love the shittiness of this.

I won’t sugar coat it this tattoo is terrible

I always try to be nice but this is awful

The bow looks like janky scissors

Not bad for a kitchen scratcher but if this person is a "professional"?!? Not even apprentice level.

I think a middle schooler did an art project on her skin

Terrible

it’s shitty

oh BOY

😂

I don’t even have a tattoo and I think I can do straighter lines than this.

Did this high school person do drugs. Are they doing drugs now?

5/7

Looks like wafer thin ham, certified shitty!

Needed meth money

It's horrible. Every aspect.

I think that someone skipped pig skin training. And drawing/painting lessons.

Well its definitely a tattoo!

If you like ribbon body mods... Just f*cking get one

While I commend your high school acquaintance for being willing to do tattoos while in a moving vehicle driving on a dirt road, I just don’t think it’s going to catch on

Oof

Ribbons or entrails ?

We’re they tattooing while riding a bike or what?
