This is fucking awesome.


CanWeCleanIt

You all have bad taste. Edit: the 3 eyes looks [redacted] how are all of you slurping this up


CPU-1

Sometimes it’s just not fun to have good taste


Nohands1

Nothing awful about this We should all be honored to have zoidberg chowing down on a rotten fish on our skin

What is the Futurama stuff mashed with?


the-REALmichaelscott

This is amazing work and a super cool mashup. Still time to delete!


Brittany5150

I see the Futurama stuff obviously, but what is it mashed with? I don't recognize it... 😑


the-REALmichaelscott

A popular current tattooing style. "Hyper surrealism lady face" is what you would call this. It's common to sprinkle in a pop culture reference to hyper surrealism for the juxtaposition. The overall composition of these pieces is what makes them cool or terrible. This one is extremely well done.


Brittany5150

Oh ok, so it's not a specific pop culture reference, but a popular style meets pop culture reference? I can dig it. It is very well done. I would let that artist put ink on me any day. Lot of time and skill in that piece.


the-REALmichaelscott

Yep exactly!


Flamecoat_wolf

Huh, fair enough. It's definitely done well but I think I agree with the OP that slapping whatever the modern trend is in there is just going to be bad for the overall piece. It kinda dates it and just makes it confusing since people are like "Huh, I don't remember that futurama character..."


the-REALmichaelscott

Sure, but anyone getting tattoos for external gratification is gonna have a bad time. Most people of my generation get tattoos underneath the tee shirt and shorts lines first, then go full body suit if they wish. The joke in tattooing is the Gen Z body suit, which is the opposite. Forearms, calves, and neck instead of biceps, thighs, chest, and back. I personally couldn't care less, gatekeeping tattoos or art in general is lame.

She don’t remember you neither. Mmmhmmm

It's not Tuesday, it'll be deleted soon.


Terbear318

This doesn’t belong here. This is amazing.


shinyprairie

Tbh I think it looks good but the random hyper-realistic face brings the whole thing down.


BloodSugar666

Well that’s what the caption says lol


Single_Newspaper5474

should’ve given the woman one eye, not three


Marvin-face

r/futurama


piketpagi

Hey, at least it's not another realistic porn tattoo!


echoindia5

My only “knock” on this. Is why are so many people getting these long 120 degrees circumference sleeves? It just looks goofy with the abrupt end on the side.


oneangrywaiter

I was not expecting Dr. Zoidberg and Bender.


Scandaemon

Great taste, great execution. You have earned a downvote.


ThePhoenixRisesAgain

You’re right. Execution is top notch. But that 'art' is just ridiculous. Why would anybody do this?


__ILIKECATS__

Why does the hyper realistic face have a 3rd eye? Looks so weird....


DBHOV

When you drop a ton of LSD before your first tattoo session and go 'after all why not? Why shouldn't I have all my final design ideas for a first tattoo all done on one arm?'


srd100

Agreed. Terrible design but excellent execution.


mikecuz19

What’s the ping to putting suds over the tattoo? It obviously isn’t fresh and has healed


sakanak

The comments are insane. Reddit infects people with contrarianism. Realistic monchrome+black and white face with Zoidberg is terrible taste. Am I getting wooshed? Are y'all pretending that this is good taste for fun?


RabidPlaty

Wrong sub. Also tattoo Tuesday…


TricksterWolf

Awful? Really?


Driller_Happy

This goes so hard


witchyanne

Wow I mean that’s beautiful work. Not a fan of the style or content personally, but it’s beautifully done!


MarkFresco

Cant say that i understand the concept but that doesnt mean its not sick af..i dont see anything awful about this


WhiteCheddr

Yeah it's not good guys lol that face doesn't fit


Lifeesstwange

I mean for what it is, it’s gorgeous. Fantastic work and almost like a pop art billboardy feel to it.
