looks 100x better in person actually since the shading is done from a 3d perspective, so when you look at it at the angle its *supposed* to be viewed at it actually looks like the one eye is closer and the other one is kind of just peaking over...
needless to say when it was finally done and i went to the bathroom to check it out i was like "HOLY FUCK"
not much of a way that you can kiss my ass on this picture... its a tattoo that i got done.. i didn't do the tattoo myself so i have no real stake in any compliments or insults directed about it :P
don't get me wrong... its a pretty incredible tattoo, and the several hundred people (literally) who were taking pictures of it and the magazine who is putting it in one of their issues agree... but thats not a compliment really to me.. its to the artist, all i can take credit for is choosing to get a tattoo by him, having an arm without any other tattoos, and thats that :P
mine pales in comparison to his. his is impressive to look at... mine's impressive in how it was done. i also only got 1 part of it completed, no where near my entire back.
deja's turned out great as well, but its a bit puffy still (could be cuz of how it was done or just how her back reacts to tattoos, since a few of her old tattoos have a bit of a raised skin feeling to them... just how some people are)
i'm sure once the scabbing and everything is done over the next week it'll be cool
Uh oh Deja! Was it by the guy you wanted it done by?? And do you have to wait for him to come back to get it finished? o_0 Did it hurt more than a regular tattoo? (That was 3 questions... I have 17 left before you get to pick on me.... hahaha)
yeah she got it done by ernesto (not sure if thats how you spell his name)
traditional style... pretty neat actually..
that guy was so fucking busy, he was there from BEFORE the convention opened bringing people down with him until after it closed every single night... he must have been a zombie by the end of it
if 1 person (the person who gets the tattoo) thinks its awesome, then it is, thats how it is. considering its their tattoo.. not a hard concept to grasp is it?
if you think that i posted this on mucho for compliments, you are again sadly mistaken.
cthulhu? no.. its a hp lovecraft thing, although some of the creatures in starwars were based off of the description of cthulhu, just like most modern fantasy, scfi, and horror can be traced back to a lot of hp lovecrafts and edgar allen poes writing
yeah, next time when i'm going to get a tattoo i'll make sure to consult you, after all you do have 2 pirate loop earrings.. so you ARE the man to talk to about body art :/
i wasn't criticizing at all, not my style.
i was just stating a fact that your pirate hoop earrings made you look gay :(
not that i have a problem with what you dress yourself up like, like i said tho, i'll make sure to consult you... mr fashion.
No, you're style is to make ridiculous statements (Really, didn't equating earrings with homosexuality go out a looooong time ago?)criticizing a person's fashion sense if they have an opinion about a piece of art that differs with your own.
See but the real problem here is that you don't understand what it means to criticize something, you like to put down, beat to the ground and literally shit on things. Give your opinion and move the fuck on.
like i said, i wasn't criticizing you at all, i'm not sure why you get all upset about someone saying something like as obvious as you looking gay with 2 medium sized pirate hoop earrings.
obviously you have had to deal with it before so i guess its understandable that you are getting hissy over it. don't worry if you want to change it you can just take them out and problem solved. this is your chance to counter with something typically "hank smart" such as: "at least i can remove my gay sailor earrings if i want to, but you can't remove your tattoo that i have no feelings towards either way."
Then again its my opinion that people who have pent up anger, and can't do anything but put other people down, is because maybe they are overcompensating! But...that is just my opinion.
Who the fuck asked you, you fucking stupid bitch? I said it did nothing for me and since then I've been defending my personal appearance. Your problem is that you have no idea what you are fucking talking about.
Wow, once again with the viscious attacking. Hmmpf it never ends does it? But its okay cause you have Archman to defend you. Talk about a kiss ass, how does it feel going back and forth with that sucker fish attacked at your rectum?
"like i said, i wasn't criticizing you at all, i'm not sure why you get all upset about someone saying something like as obvious as you looking gay with 2 medium sized pirate hoop earrings."
Hahaha. You are so funny with you girly passive-aggressive bullshit. The simple reality is that you got upset because I said your dress wasn't pretty. (Just being honest!) So, you started criticizing me.
hank, just being honest here as well, but what you say about really anything (literally anything) has no real correlation with any emotion i experience. to think that i would get upset based on what you would say is pretty..... well frankly retarded.
you made a typical hank remark, i responded back with something that was a completely and obvious target (the earrings). just take them out and we will both be much happier.... ok? ok.
if you'd like me for next time you blather on about something to go after something else, i will, as long as you please promise me that you are not wearing hoop earings anymore. seriously.
Bullshit. I said your tattoo was not interesting to me, so you started in. It was a very simple statement. Not blathering. I haven't heard someone call a guy wearing earrings gay since high school. Very lame. Like your tattoo.
i really enjoyed reading all this.. good to have you back hank, mucho is a bit more complete now.
irish, you're sinking lower and lower in the pit of yak's asscrack.. grab hold of this rope! *throws rope down yak's asscrack*
chinaski, i guess the ban couldnt have been in a worse time. having to spend more "quality time" with your wife in the last month of pregnancy and shit. a disgusting whining slut all day
No, but there's this whole Mucho underground thing going, that is conducted on various messenger services. I don't know of it because I don't download messengers.
what kinda tattoo do you have?
it was pretty funny all the people who would walk buy, see my arm as it was getting done and just go "CTHULHU!!!", like instantly recognize it..
its a biblical tattoo half sleeve with a full desert complete with mountains and cracked ground and what not. directly in the center of it all is an old wooden table with a full thanksgiving dinner on it. (yes a big ass turkey too) and the passage of where its found in the bible underneath it all.
this chick that was getting a tattoo beside where i got mine on sunday had some sort of really small writing on her right hip that was kind of neat looking.... the crotch tattoo she was getting tho was a little tacky in my opinion (even though the design was really cool) "make love"
if it wasn't saying 'make love' and was just the design that he was doing up for her it would have actually looked pretty cool i think... but i'm not a huge fan of words or messages on tattoos... not to say that some aren't kinda neat, just not probably what i'd want to get done.... speaking of words on tattoos, not a crotch tattoo, which i really wouldn't want to get done :P
i was thinking more along the lines of a huge "BANHAMMER" on my chest.
well... not that huge because i'm not that big of a guy... but a medium sized "BANHAMMER" maybe..
I did, pretty crazy stuff and very well done :P I don't know much about this cthulhu thing but it looks to me like a very pissed off huge fuckin octopus. If you'd start lifting some weights it'd prolly even look sicker ;)
i've eaten enough spiders to get enough hair on my chest... THANKS THO! :P
some of the people in our building tho... one of the guys has a full head of hair on his shoulders... yet he wears wife beater shirts...
Don't get posessive Hank, if you wanted to pet Smerf first all you had to do was say so...No need to get your Butt Pirate Hoops in a knot. I'll leave you fellas to it.
Oh no I am running to my bedroom to cry in the corner. Please my poor sensitive feelings are hurt. Had your statement only been true, perhaps that might be the reaction I had.
you know many people who have cthulhu tattoos? i saw one guy at the convention that was getting a kind of iconized cthulhu-ish character done on his arm (it was just the outlines at the moment it seems) and another guy that got an hp lovecraft portrait half hp lovecraft half skul, but thats about it exept for the ones i've seen on the internet... which aren't all that many, and mostly not that great of quality
"Know"? I know of them through friends, but directly I have seen a lot of people getting them down at the rally. IDK what it is about Cthulhu, but some of the HD riders dig it and slap it on some part of their body.
As for me, I was a fan of Lovecraft back when I don't know of anyone liking his work, or even knowing who he was. I was reading Lovecraft at roughly 9 or 10 years old. I found his work curious, but it was never scary so I don't think of it as horror.
lovecrafts work has influenced pretty much every modern horror writer from steven king to clive barker... most of them would probably even say that he was their inspiration to start writing horror.
most people don't really give a shit about anyone else liking something if they like it, i'm not sure how that should influence you to like something or not?
lately people have been more and more lovecraft crazy just for the fact that people are more inclined to look things up on the internet i'd assume, from things like evil dead and the necronomicon that he invented and different stuff like that probably
*shrug*
H.P. Lovecraft was an american fictional writer who created an entire genre based upon ancient Summarian writings about "old" gods who walked the world before man. He took various pieces of myth and wive's tales and wove them into a series of fantastic stories which fueled several of the popular horror and sci fi writers.
Edgar Allan Poe was an american horror writer most noted for "The Raven". Many of his tales were made into movies featuring Vincent Price.
Both of them wrote in a period of time where "dark" tales were frightening to people. Anything dealing with witches/wizards, undead, or horrors from alternate worlds. The movie, "The Mist" is inspired by Lovecraft's work, written by King when he used his fantasy/scifi pen name Richard Bachman.
Both Lovecraft and Poe lived fairly "odd" lives, but both were instrumental in spawning many of the stories and movies people read/see today.
usually its the simplest way to tell people who hp lovecraft was since everyone has seen evil dead ;)
i still think its funny how many people thought there was a real necronomicon that i talk to....
Great tattoo artist. The average person just goes to a tattoo parlor without really doing much research and gets some shit that looks like a prison inmate did it.
Supra: I'm pretty lucky in that not far from where I live is the studio of one of the worlds top tattoo artists. The guy himself is in huge demand, so you have to be put on a waiting list to get just him (it was around 18 months long the last time I checked) but so worth it.
I think yak wanted to ban him, it's just that dik never puts people down for their appearance so he didn't fit into the scope of the recent banning rules. Poor dik
that is a really nice tattoo, definitely worth the money you spent on it, which wasn't even that much considering how large the tattoo is.. and the quality.

i'm not sure if thats the point tho!
If the person who got the tattoo thinks it's awesome, then it's awesome to that person.
If another person thinks it's so-so, then it's so-so to that person.
And, if yet another person thinks it's lame, then it's lame to that person.
tommy lee as in bangin pamela with hep c?
i don't think i'd let someone with hepatitis give me a tattoo ;/
I'm sorry were you expecting only glowing praise for your tattoo?
what would you call those? they aren't small hoops...
ladies? what would do you call those when you wear them?
i was just stating a fact that your pirate hoop earrings made you look gay :(
not that i have a problem with what you dress yourself up like, like i said tho, i'll make sure to consult you... mr fashion.
Would like be anything like the "fact" that anyone who gets a giant Cthuluthu as a tat is overcompensating for a really tiny penis?
obviously you have had to deal with it before so i guess its understandable that you are getting hissy over it. don't worry if you want to change it you can just take them out and problem solved. this is your chance to counter with something typically "hank smart" such as: "at least i can remove my gay sailor earrings if i want to, but you can't remove your tattoo that i have no feelings towards either way."
or something like that possibly?

i look like pretty much any computer nerd i suppose :P

aka 1500 bucks ;P
so i got a fairly good price i'd say, especially considering how well done it is.

well... not that huge because i'm not that big of a guy... but a medium sized "BANHAMMER" maybe..
He sure has some talent...I like yours too yak.
some of the people in our building tho... one of the guys has a full head of hair on his shoulders... yet he wears wife beater shirts...
Strangely, it's mostly on one shoulder though. O_o
i don't even want to imagine a huge patch of red hair on someones shoulders ;/

I put Lovecraft in the same category with Edgar Allan Poe. Their stories aren't really scary, they're provocative.
Edgar Allan Poe was an american horror writer most noted for "The Raven". Many of his tales were made into movies featuring Vincent Price.
Both of them wrote in a period of time where "dark" tales were frightening to people. Anything dealing with witches/wizards, undead, or horrors from alternate worlds. The movie, "The Mist" is inspired by Lovecraft's work, written by King when he used his fantasy/scifi pen name Richard Bachman.

i still think its funny how many people thought there was a real necronomicon that i talk to....
Ok, I thought I got enogh buzz words in there for this to get flagged by the FBI.
Anway, yep. I have the book and its a good read.
yak says:
several hundreds of thousands of hits on mucho ;/
aka 1500 bucks ;P
1 Hour Ago
Several thousands of hits you say? Hmmm then I'm guessing you've been saving for a few years. You're more poor then I thought you would be lol.
Btw, who did the design for the Cthulu? Deja?
if i wanted to ban someone, guess what? they would be banned...
wait.. it is
