Oh my god.

Someone stop this dude tattooing now!

The first few tattoos are brutal! He doesnt even line up the tattoos so to suit the shape of different body parts, especially the Taurus brith sign on that girls wrist!!! That tattoo is completely out of line with the centre line of the wirst.... He clearly doesnt have an artists eye for even the basics, he should either be taught by a professional or not do it all. Experimenting on real people is not a good idea.

And then the Maori tattoos on his fingers. He says he spent lots of time researching Maori tattoos but then keeps calling them Moria instead of Maori! Eeeek!

The RIP Grandpa tattoo isnt even centred on that persons back. This is basic shit! And why do so many people want names tattooed on their wrists! Fuck me!

He calls her a customer :mrgreen:

I think it's made all the more tragic that he comes across as a really nice guy who is dead proud of his new 'talent', I mean he's dead proud to tattoo his mum and his friends, but is totally unaware of how shit he is :mrgreen:

If there was an X Factor for tattoo artists, this would be the guy breaking down in tears with his Mum shouting at Simon Cowell for being mean to him. Seriously, give the kid some good advice, like "go to fucking tattoo school."

He's going to get his head kicked in for doing something shit on the wrong person eventually...*


*or he'll become the self taught troubled genius who can only express his truly visionary ideas on modern society through the medium of ink filled needles.**

**I think that's probably a bit unlikely.

i dont understand why he feels the need to tattoo every spot on his body. feel sorry for when he realises he actually wants something good done somewhere, but where to do it? ive got crap everywhere?

also fast forward 2 years and he'll probably get bored of it and think "fuck, im covered in probably the shittest tattoo's ever"

and how he describes writing that looks like it was done by a drunk baby with a broken arm as 'dead fancy'.
