the heat does bring out ill advised tattoos doens it?

" donna" across her neck
those awful ones on mens calves

ewwwww

And I know a man who has a big Marijuana leaf on his neck- he wonders why he cant get a job???

giantkatestacks, what kind of thing are you looking to have done? There's loads of brilliant artists in London - Evil From The Needle in Camden is fantastic, great staff and premises; Frith Street Tattoo does lovely new school/traditional style; I hear Flamin' Eight are good, also New Wave Tattoo...seriously, the choice is massive

Another pet hate of tattoos is when someone has one of a famous person as it never looks anything like the person.

eg. Jodie Marsh's Michael Jackson tattoo (sorry DM link)

God what is wrong with that woman?! Why on Earth would you get a MJ tattoo and why is she that funny colour?

God Jodie Marsh is such a cock isn't she

Does anybody watch Miami Ink? I love it, its fascinating! Idon't have now, nor will i ever, have a tattoo btw

I have tattoos am not a tramp

has anyone been so transfixed in horror by someones tattoo that they have actually followed the person round peering at them just to mke sure it is what you think it is?

not me of course

(disclaimer:i actually like tattoos. but only mine. and dhs)

Norbert, most portraits are pretty cruddy, true...but check out [[http://www.bobtyrrell.com/galleries/portraits.php Bob Tyrell] for examples of portraits that actually look like people.

(add to disclaimer - and SparklyGothKats - they are beautiful! you obv have a v talented tattoo person )

Arse, sorry, Bob Tyrell.

Oh the shame of cocking up a link...it burns far worse than having a tattoo ever could

not bad for a 70 year man eh?? he has been doing it a long time now....

no ALl tattoos are scummy

You have beautiful children SGK- beautiful.

Am loving the DM for the quote 'jodie, who has no discernible talent...'

No other reason I should point out.

lol at this

"Jodie, who has no discernible talent",

Thankfully you are ginger and so your opinion can be instantly disregarded

sorry yes they are vile too

cant see yours cyteen

I also liked their "increasingly freakish looking Jodie". They were spot on there.

Jodie Marsh, for a minute there i thought that was Pete Burns

wow! you expect old guys to be doing the old blue ink style pop eye type tatts, not tasteful modern ones. really good work

this thread is one of the funniest I've read for ages.

I have no tattoos nor any desire for one so probably have no business here anyway but stil, PMSL.

GI, indeed you can't

Have to admit to staring at one tattoo yesterday, it was a badly 'joint' tattoo on a mum's arm...

I saw a woman sat outside a pub in town yesterday who had 'Royal Bitch' tattooed across her cleavage in rather nice flowing script.
