May 15 2007Terrible tattoo

I wonder why someone would get Ugly Betty tattooed to his arm? Must be a fan or something.

I'll Swallow Your Soul! I'll Swallow Your Soul!!!

thats awesome!

no wonder the guy isn't looking at the camera as the pictures getting taken =P

This is one of the reasons why I have still not gotten a tattoo. But, mainly, it's because I might not always be the person who I was when I got the tattoo. If I do get one, it'll be something like having my child's or children's initials on my back, because no matter what, I will always be their father.

Well, clearly the girl is deceased. So, appropriately, the tattoo looks like her corpse. I don't see what the problem is.

The picture should have been drawn to a paper version first, with alot of the shading left out. Also, the girl should have been prettier.

ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha oh shit. this is terrible. this is the worst tattoo i've ever seen. ha ha ha ha ha i'd just cut my f***ing arm off!!

Yeah, that artist really needs to work on his calligraphy.

What?

Maybe the tattoo is of the bride's father.

wow thats messed up

golf clap 1-Ton, you won this thread.

Quite clear to me this one. If that's the best picture he had to give to the tatooist is it no wonder he tried to use some artistic licence? Come on, take a photo of her wrapped around an anchor or splayed out naked on a dragon... that's bread and butter stuff for these guys. Take your arm back to the tatoo parlour and let him finish his masterpiece... Flames coming out the eyes or horns twisting round the ears... he's good at THAT!!

i feel bad for the next person to wake up next to this arm.

It's a cross between Telly Savalas(nose) and Steve Buchemi (teeth).

Holyshit, that made me sick. Wow, man, that's why you DON'T get realistic tatoos of people done. The only thing realistic that they can do are breasts, and they don't even make them all that realistic.

Anyway, yeah, NO, that artist sucks. He needs to learn to NOT outline lips and put old lady shading on a young, but clearly dead woman.

@1-ton: I lol'd.

This is the exact reason why you don't go to any random joe shmoe artist. Do your god damn research or else you get a gremlin tattooed on your arm... I will never go to anyone outside of the studio my artist owns...

Dunno for you guys, but it is clear to me he pictured what the lady's like after a month under the earth... yek!!

She looks like one of the Gentlemen from Buffy. Eeek.

ree ree ree ree!

The tattooist needs to be held down and have the word "TWAT" tattooed on his forehead. Seriously, that's awful. What's with those teeth FFS?

That's got to be one of the worst tattoo's I've seen. Portrait work is such an odd thing to have done...especially when the artist is obviously no good. I bet the only time he shows it off is when he's drunk at a party!

He needs a cheese grater.

1-ton...that is the greatest comment ever.

It looks like Freddy Krueger!!

My girlfriend actually works at this tattoo parlor as a piercer (i wont say the name) and the guy who did this is the general manager. this is a TERRIBLE looking tattoo though, and it's funny because i was thinking about having this guy do my half sleeve. now i'm going to have to look somewhere else.

i just find it funny that this is being passed around the net, the dudes a choch anyway.

Absolutle cracker

give the tatoo artist and M.B.E :-d

@17 - Lol gremlin!

what an unbelievably shitty tatto.

the teeeth! the teeeeeth!

ok... first of all... we have a lazy eye. well, she has a lazy eye... and it appears to be a phallic object in her mouth, or a tumor on her cheek... and what the hell is that stray line on the right side or her chest? and in some cases... there are just situations where you dont put every detail in the tattoo... and then there are people that you just dont get a tattoo of. i dont know whos more of a tard... the artist, or the victim... lol... GG.

they do $10 piercings haugh ha hahahahaha

oi f***witts iis a memorial tattoo who cares wat it looks like its for someone he loved who passed have some f***ing respect

That is sad as hell. I wonder if a DECENT artist could fix it somehow. Even the tiara looks like he turned it into little bones.

I wonder if that guy got a tip.

Sadly... This was done at a local shop, that charges ridiculous prices for tattoos...and the work isn't that great. So avoid on the edge tattoo in bowling green, Ohio... I feel bad for the guy getting a memorial piece of his wife, and then it turning out like an old hag with some sort of deformation.

Honestly...if you're going to get a portrait... make sure they are CAPABLE of drawing a portrait to say the least...not just tracing a picture.

Wow... who says tattoo artists don't have a sense of humor? Right? This is a joke... right? I'm so glad my tat artist rocks because this guy's watched one too many Night of the Living Dead movies.

The sad thing is that the guy HAD to have seen what the tattoo was going to look like before he actually got it done. Transfer paper does serve a purpose. Unless he just trusted someone enough to freehand a portrait on him. Moron. He deserved it for being that stupid either way.

I have to admit, I have come across some pretty wretched portraits in my day, and this is not the worst by any stretch of the imagination. I would NEVER get a portrait tattoo...EVER! I would get something to represent them. but even the BEST portrait artists have difficulties sometimes...Kat Von D is among the best I've ever seen and even she has a few bad ones that look nothing like what its supposed to....
My husband does tattoos and refuses every portrait that comes to him. As every tattoo artist should.

omg.. that tattoo is fukin horrible.. who ever did it sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

this dude is still at it.... can we get a link to his myspace please so maybe everyone in the world can pick on this guy and he might either stop selling his soul and integrity and ruining peoples skin and memories just for a fist full of dollars......check it out http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=212520311&albumID=1104612&imageID=28300702 this goeas beyond worst tattoo ever its worst tattooist (and i use that term loosely) and worst person. you should meet this guy

i quit, i cant compete http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=212520311&albumID=1104612&imageID=28667027

I feel sorry for him. It's in memoriam.
Most of you asre dickheads for what you've said though.
You'll die lonely.

tattoo by mark hancock at bootleg tattoo in zanesville ohio i think

its funny... i found this picture off google when i searched for "where the wild things are"....

this can be fixed...fortunately

To be honest, i think your all heartless in breaking this guys heart about his decised wife! Your all pathetic

That tattoo is just wretched..

Rule 101 of portraits - you NEVER outline lips and you NEVER outline teeth. EVER. Not to mention the typhography is a joke and his linework is thin and weak. Was he drunk?

The links to his other portraits too (not to mention is other works) are just diabolical. This guy has no training or even basic skills in the formal elements of art. What sickens me more is that he still gets work and receives awards.
What kind of message does this send out? That yes kids, you too should be rewarded for laziness and a lack of honest hard work and dedication.

F*ck you, man.
F*ck you.

Wow some of you need to respect the dead. The tattoo is horrible but the girl is pretty. Apparently all some of you have to do is make fun of people because your either ugly with no life or your just so immature you think this is the thing to do. Grow the hell up.

WHY ARE YOU ALL BEING SO HARSH? IF YOU ACTUALLY SAW THE TATTOO PROPERLY YOU WOULD SEE THAT IT SAID "IN LOVING MEMORY" THEN YOU WOULDN'T BE WRITING COMMENTS LIKE THESE;;

Maybe he got it done at the new Drive-Thru, also is it wrong to get a pic of a vagina tattooed on your palm?
