Snakes in her Mane!
Scarily good, and thoroughly NSFW realistic Medusa, from Dave Newman. Apologies for the awful title punnage.

More amazing wizards (dragon edition)
I'm seriously obsessed with wizard tattoos. Sorry if you guys are getting sick of them! Here are a bunch with their dragon buddies.
It looks like he's about to pitch all the magic onto his hand that's holding the orb, whereupon it will smash into one million pieces and doom the dragon to an eternity underground without his friends or family.
This dude is NOT HAPPY about the dragon's fiery flames. Not one bit.
Since when are wizards 100x bigger than dragons? I like the lightning bolts though.
"Alright, I want a dungeon. A deep, dark, scary dungeon, with a DRAGON and a huge SPIDER, and a lizard, and cobwebs, and an EVIL PLOTTING WIZARD with another dragon on his shoulder, and a CUTE BLUEBIRD and a HEART with a banner with my girlfriend's name on it and a bunch of FLAMES on the other side and some smoke all around everything. Okay?"

Day Of The Dead Good
Something a bit more striking from Ed Perdomo this time. A frightening and frighteningly good zombie geisha.

We have a Vinall!
A nice collection of new school pinups from Steve Vinall, with a touch of the Corpse Bride about them?
Oh, my aching sides
Alessandro Mayer, culled from ModBlog. Not the greatest tattoo, but worth it for the 'ugh' factor.

Classic FM
Alex De Pase, portrait artist extraordinaire, does an Elvgren pinup. Not the best thing he's done, but still pretty amazing. Nope she's not getting a thrill off that radio!

My Friend Zak (when bad tattoos come full circle and become awesome, part II)
My friend Zak is quite possibly the coolest dude ever. He has great taste in music. He's super nice and friendly. He has a black belt in karate. He likes space and d&d and being awesome. And he is willing to share his ridiculous stick-n-poke tattoos with us.
In the same vein as this dude, Zak and his friends like to get tipsy and tattoo each other. And ridiculousness ensues.
I'm going to post his tattoos in installments, because they are just that amazing, so here is the first, of many.
Here's the story behind it, if I'm remembering correctly... he decided to get a wolf tattoo, because wolves are RAD (p.s. I have a bunch of amazing tribal wolf tattoos to share with you guys). However, no one could tattoo a wolf, so he just went with the word "WOLF!". Then, apparently, there's a Chinese saying "horse, horse, tiger, bear" which brings good luck, I think? So he went with writing those next to "WOLF!" to round out the tattoo. But the words kept getting progressively crappier as he went on, so you can barely read the last one.
This might be one of the worst tattoos I have ever seen, but it is also one of the best.
If you have a silly stick-n-poke tattoo, or have a friend who does, by all means EMAIL ME!

Wizards with triangle things on their hats
You guys probably know by now how much I love bad tattoos that are all from the same book/ piece of flash/ google search. I especially feel this way about wizard tattoos. I collect photos of wizard tattoos and then try to match them up. It's amazing how many are alike! This is the largest collection of matching wizards I have so far. Enjoy.
This one has a sketch next to it, but it can't be the original.
I love how they are all the same, but have their own little personalities...
... like "mild" written over the nipple, for example.
And finally one in color! I can't decide if the color makes this bad tattoo more or less awesome. There's something about the classic black and white wizard that I really love, but I think anything magical really deserves to be in color.
I'm sure there are many more wizards-with-triangle-things-on-their-hats out there, I just have to find them. If you know of anyone with one of these, or know where they might come from, please let me know!

Bikes (part 2)
whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy???????????????
There are so many better things you could put on your chest! Symmetrical, flattering, awesome things! Why why why why why why would you put a line drawing of a BIKE on your BOOBS? It makes her left boob look 10x bigger and droopier than the right because the left wheel is so much bigger.
sdjkskjfhsdfjs
At least it's well done. And I hope it's just the first outline and that she went and got it colored in later. And maybe put some stuff behind it to even the whole thing out.
p.s. my friend has a blog about funny emails he gets at work, if you're bored you should check it out.

The Crow
I haven't gotten a tattoo in a year, and have been feeling the itch. I have an appointment for this upcoming Wednesday. I decided to get two big crows with lightning bolts, they'll probably on my ribs, unless I wuss out. It's kind of a memorial tattoo for my dad, but not totally. Anyway, I'll post pictures and you guys can feel free to make fun of them as much as you want. In anticipation of my appointment, I decided to do some looking around for terrible crow tattoos. I found a lot.
Full disclosure: I was really into The Crow when I was a teenager. Here's a photo of me being totally awesome when I was 13 or 14.
I don't have any ridiculous makeup on in that photo, but I definitely went to school made-up like the crow. The movie was filmed in my hometown (Wilmington, NC) and I went on a pilgrimage to see where Brandon Lee died. I listened to the soundtrack to the movie every day. I still really enjoy the movie. Regardless of my history with the movie, my crow tattoo idea has nothing to do with the movie The Crow. These people's tattoos do. There are so many sweet crow images out there, I don't know why they picked these out....
So here you go. Awful crow tattoos!
I think this crow is supposed to be on fire? It just looks blobby to me.
This is supposed to be the Crow logo, but it's not executed well...
This one too. Plus! Bonus barbed wire armband! I love seeing terrible versions of the same thing. (See my zombie jesus and wizard posts for more)
Crow mask + tribal + cross = goldmine!
Scarred Kanji + flaming crow = bigger goldmine!
I don't understand the spacing and sizing on this. It looks like the tattoos just got slapped on completely randomly. Also the little spritzes of red and yellow are a real nice touch. What is the black blob on the left? Can anyone tell?
skldfskdjf Brandon Lee does not look like that!
And he really, really does not look like this!!!
I hope you enjoyed this confessional edition of awful tattoos. Check back next week to make fun of my crow tattoo!
