THANKS FOR EVERYONES HELP IN ADVANCE


the 3rd pic is one from the hightimes article i was talking about

it amazes me how many people look at a new thread but dont post in it you clicked on it for a reason something in the name interested you

dude those tatoos are awesome bro !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wouldnt mind this one myself :

I think its pretty amazing that you would tattoo the molecule structure of THC on your forearms.

Leave tattooing to someone who knows what the hell they are doing my friend before they mess you up and you have to spend half a fortune on getting your skin fixed. The stuff is something that you have to wear for the rest of your life you know...

Your lines are not straight, lettering is not consistent in size and the line work isnt a constant thickness. If this was professionally done, go show them the error in their work and request @ least half of you money back if not in full.
I am a tattooist and mean these things in the kindest way possible. If your going to get a more complicated art piece, make sure that its from someone else other than the person who gave you your existing artwork.

it amazes me how many ppl post stuff and expect to have a dozen replies within 1 freaking hour. ( haha jk jk ) But I wil reply..

Maybe not as many ppl are into tattoos as you thought? Maybe people were just interested in seeing some cool tat pics but had nothing they wanted to add? TBH im not a big tat fan. There are some reasons tats are a bad idea.. One is "I.D." purposes ( there kinda like human V.I.N. numbers if u know what I mean lol )..Example - ( This happened like 8 yrs ago.. Im disabled now and retired )A co worker of mine ( who was an idiot anyway ) stole some money from my boss's truck after the boss cashed his check ( was like 1,000.00 ) and took off ( dude was a serious crackhead ).. My boss called the cops and gave a description of him and the MAIN desc. was of a tat the dude had.. It was a tat of some kinda monkey w/ a joint or w/e...LOL they only had to go to 1 local crackhouses and found him easiliy.. MAINLY BY THE TAT DESC.. lmao..Fucking crackheads hahah.. I was glad they caught him as I hate crackheads, and hate thieves even more..Plus theres always the pesky "bad tat + good job = NO" ,thing.. I dont really see myself as an old man 80yrs old w/ some big ass weed tattoo lol.. Thats just me though.. NO OFFENSE MEANT


But if you want suggestions,I think this is a cool weed Tat .. Granted, the right cola could be way better IMHO >

*** OR ***




Something like this one below, only put a weed plant inside or something , This is one of the best tats ive seen thus far >





FREAKIN AWESOME ^^^

Peace

I think the bud stalk coming out of the skin through rips would be pretty cool to see. That is a very good piece of artwork as far as bud tats go. The main thing to this tattoo should be picking something individual for the art as well as choosing the right artist to do it...
The work will only be as good as the worker....

hell yea.. my thoughts exactly..
dammit I made like 7 typos in my above post wtf lol.. Edited now haha. thx for not quoting the whole post.. It sucks to have someone quote you and theres like a ton of typos lol

That's ridiculous. I have tattoo's but would never tattoo a bud to my body. The molecular structure is cool, bud shot comes off tacky....Imo.

Here's my tat...It needs 3 more sessions to be completed.

those weed tattoos are horrible

^^But you have one on your face.

maybe thats a good thing LMAO ^^

lol @ marijuana tattoo... people are running out of ideas aren't they?

I don't think that people are running out of ideas because they are geeting Ganja tattoos. For some of us marijuana has played a very big part in changing our lives, and growing as people. I plan on getting a full back piece dedicated to my love for this plant, and for cubensis mushrooms. I havn't decided what exactly it will be, but I'm working on it. I agree fully with who ever said that the artist is one of the most important things though.

better than see him make a thread on how this guy tried to tattoo a bud picture on him and fucked his skin up really bad IMO.
The idea of the tattoo is killer in my opinion. Show your cause while mask it in plain view @ the same time.
It can be straightened out pretty easily just by using a thicker needle and going over it. Thickening the lines will take some of the slight bends out of them while making Them equal thickness @ the same time.

hows that for better constructive criticism? Im passionate about it so I tend to sound like a dick alot about it...But its not hard to learn as long as you can shade a picture, outlining is mostly tracing and other than that its just learning quirks of the procedure. May as well strive to do it right when its so easy.

Tattooing forums are around if the guy has any formal training (so he dosent get bashed there) or if hes quiet about not having any apprenticeship time. Asking questions in the right manner can get plenty of straightforward advice from established tradesmen any time of day

But even if the guy went out and compelted an apprenticeship that is paid which would be done in about a year or two, he still may not be skilled enough to do a bud portrait.
