Monsters

Today's theme is <span style="font-weight: bold;">monsters</span>! I have some gems for you. I actually have a huge soft spot for terrible 80's metal looking tattoos. There's something about the wonkiness that makes them awesome, but <span style="font-weight: bold;">only</span> if they are of really brutal monsters. Or maybe wizards.<br /><br />I think this is a vampire dark elf zombie monster, but I am not really sure. Also, what is spearing the left eye? A tail of something even more sinister?<br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/200717718107.jpg" /><br /><br />I actually kind of love this one. I can't figure it out! I think it has three heads, a bunch of bulging muscles, some horns, some hands doing <span style="font-weight: bold;">the claw</span> (my favorite), and the weirdest lower body I have ever seen.<br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/IMAG039A.jpg" /><br /><br />This is the best hellhound-in-a-graveyard EVER, but only because he has a really wicked goatee. I think it is from Big Dogz Ink. The skull looking woefully upwards is a great bonus.<br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/S4020485.jpg" />

Skull tattoos

I love skull tattoos so very, very much. I have nine of them myself. But these ones? Not so much to love about them.<br /><br />Is this a welder skull? He looks like he is melting!<br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/IMAG044A.jpg" /><br /><br />Does this skull have a cigarette coming out of his head? And what is the big log behind him?<br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/new_artisits_007.jpg" /><br /><br />I couldn't figure the other two out, but I <i>really</i> can't figure this one out. What is this? Alien angel quarterback skull?<br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/c011.jpg" /><br /><br />** update! Apparently Skull #2 is a skull bong. That pretty much makes it more awesome/awful all at once.

Fantasy Failures

Fantasy gems from <a href="http://www.bigdogzink.com/">Big Dogz Ink</a>:<br /><br />Unicorn tattoos are awesome! Tribal tattoos are not. Wonky unicorns floating astride a tribal piece? Totally awful.<br /><br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/S4020625.jpg" /><br /><br />This wizard is <i>almost</i> awesome. He's grizzled and has a cool staff, but his hand is melting, his beard and his cloak meld into each other, and the whole tattoo looks scratched.<br /><br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/7-29-06_009.jpg" /><br /><br />And from <a href="http://headlighttattoo.com/">Headlight Tattoo</a> (not all their stuff is terrible, so it's not as fun as Big Dogz, but there are some gems in the galleries if you search)<br /><br /><br />Okay, so the color choices in this fairy aren't that bad, but the proportions? The smooshed face? The hair? The floppy left hand? (the right hand claw is kinda sweet though.) The weird shading in the dress?<br /><img src="http://i207.photobucket.com/albums/bb315/awfultattoos/IMAG009A.jpg" />
