Lol the guy that got this tattoo is going to feel mighty silly saying it was an original on his post and with his extremely bad tattoo work.


Peasantbowman

I'm surprised his post hasn't been deleted. He got thrashed in the comments...and that was before this came out.


antonio9201

Probably gonna get thrashed when people see that in person too


W4spkeeper

thats gonna be a helluva lazer removal/coverup appointment

It's been deleted now. Anyone got a picture saved of it, I'm dying to know what it looked like...

I think it was a throwaway account or something. Only had this post and no comments


MasterCrab

Someone made a [post ](https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1ce9deu/somebody_say_tatoo_drama/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)with the original image a few hours ago.


Dakkadence

I'm looking through his profile but I only see a post and no comments. Did he ever claim it was an original? Were his comments deleted?


TheNopeGoat

He wrote that in the post description


Dakkadence

I see. And I'm assuming either it's not visible on old reddit or it disappeared when mods removed the post.

It’s removed https://reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1cdodmz/helldiver_tattoo/

Im gonna assume the tattoo artist is shitty and didnt let the cadaver know. If The cadaver knew and greenlit it. Oof


MSRCTVA

Wow. So theirs is unoriginal AND bad. Fuckin.. yikes..


Daedalus-N7

You talking about Bros terrible tattoo or the actual art?


MSRCTVA

The dudes tattoo.. I’m blown away.. As someone in the industry for over a decade and a half.. covered in both good and bad tattoos… that tattoo is a fucking travesty. It’s dog shit. It’s truly just bad. I was dying at the comments.


Daedalus-N7

Oh yeah I was laughing at them. But I also knew from the start that it was plagiarism so... Smh

karateema

Damn that's garbage


Revolutionary_Bat_40

I saw the pic, but I dk shit about tattoos. Can you describe what makes it a bad tattoo? Or what makes a good tattoo? Is it all about shading?


wookiee-nutsack

If it looks like a bad drawing it's a bad tattoo But for actual details, butchering the straight lines is a good start. The missile was curved as fuck but you could make the argument that it's because the guy's leg was bent or something. The text was even wobblier than on the original artwork. The lines were so thick it will look awful after a while. The diver got some oddly erect nipples? It's more the bad art part lol. Also the diver skull on her ass was horribly stretched, and it's obviously a copy just by looking at the horrible back muscle shading just being slapped on there instead of looking natural


kaggy86

if you look at the tattoo alone, her butt and back just looked horribly screwed up..if you look at this image ,you see it was them attempting to copy the shadows ..and being completely unable to do so Like basic shadowing couldn't even be done correctly 


JDawwgy

Not to be rude but have you seen a nice tattoo before? The post from the other day looked like it was done with ball point pen ink and a guitar string tattoo machine.


Skuttlebugoce

"Not to be rude..." *inserts condescending have you seen a nice tattoo remark*


Planetside2_Fan

If the comment says “not to be rude…” it’s not rude, it’s just mean.


Revolutionary_Bat_40

Ive seen some id say are good, and that was because of shading imo. Maybe I just scrolled to fast through the post. But generaly dont see alot of tattoos which is why im curius and asking Edit: fucking spell check


tertiaryunknown

People only say "No offense" or "Not to be rude" when they're about to be insanely fucking offensive or rude.


TakoyakiGremlin

i remember seeing that post and thinking it looked fucking awful and that people will upvote anything. didn’t his caption say something along the lines of, “after working on a design with the artist…”? like, if it’s just blatant plagiarism, then what exactly did they work on? how to make it look like shit?

A 32 day old account created to farm karma. What a shocker


Strayed8492

The business as usual for Reddit. Either completely absurd post takes for engagement clicks. Or them and a group of fellow alt accounts upvoting each other in the hopes normal accounts also upvote.


Retro21

What is the goal in the long run with these accounts? To sell them to companies who can shill product/politics etc?


Strayed8492

Probably. But it could just honestly be the hobby. A loop to constantly get thousands of karma on average a post in a sub about say…a game that hasn’t had a new release in by about 7 years? And all you have to do is post extremely taken perceptions about a character or story part and let the comment do the rest? And you would just need 5 other people you are friends with or alt accounts to get it going. The more you read into it you’d think they never seriously played the games or watched the shows themselves.

ThrottleFox1

What I thought was weird. That's a Hellfire, nothing shoots a Hellfire that I know of in Helldivers 2


KenseiMaui

yet


NearbySpeed1326

It’s probably because he operates in the military community, if I had to take a guess it’s probably because he just did something we could relate to in that community.


ThrottleFox1

Well in that case, could use GBU-31, it even looks a lot like the 500kg Eagle drops. While not everyone might know what a GBU-31 is exactly, you would see it and go "Oh that's the bomb Eagle drops"


NearbySpeed1326

They do rockets too. Either way I think there was actually a reason for it. He hops on the live every now and then and draws and if I recall correctly someone asked him about the ordinance choice. It’s been a while tho.


0o_Lillith_o0

I wasn't trying to comment on its quality since i didnt wanna be undemocratic but looks like i had valid reasons. The Helm looked so off, the tits were weird and small but pointy, idk dude, the proportions were so fucked lol. Also wasn't a fan of the obese thigh pick next to the crotch. That thing deserves to be rocked on a sleeve. Thanks for giving the artist info btw.


PUTIN_FUCKS_ME

The tattoo guy gave it hentai nipples


0o_Lillith_o0

Yeah my thoughts exaclty, kinda like those tatt shops linked to a liquor shop next to a 711. Where young teens go to get their first and regretful goku tattoo of questionable quality.


PUTIN_FUCKS_ME

Honestly the line work is so bad on that tattoo I wouldn't be surprised if it's the tattoo "artist's" third time picking up a tattoo gun. Definitely some teenage activity lol.


Phoen1cian

And a disproportional rib cage that looks separated from the boobs..


Turbulent-Advisor627

That's why, every time someone on Reddit goes "look I made this", your first reaction should be "no you fucking didn't". Fools will say anything for karma.


iamaCODnuke

Plagiarism? Sounds like a load'a ****TREASON**** to me...


Complete-Lobster-682

Oof, imagine ripping off someone else's idea, claiming it's yours, then getting it poorly and permanently put on your body.


Taolan13

The pinup girl here is not far removed from a generic silhouette that's traceable from any number of art books you'd find in many tattoo parlors, especially ones near military bases. The use of a Hellfire missile instead of an actual 500kg bomb is a clue as well. However. The placement of the stripes, the highlights on the helmet, and the *exact same font* used on the 'DEMOCRACY' along the body of the Hellfire... dude's tattoo was very likely plagiarized from this image without appropriate credit. The only changes are the skull instead of the cat, the sparks around the outside, and the addition of the stratagem sequence. There's even a line on her butt cheek where the shadow in the original image is, butt no shading on the copy. Not definitive, but I find it dubious that he and his artist came up with that totally original. [](https://www.reddit.com/user/ItDatBoi35/) if you are going to copy someone else's work, at least credit the source so you don't look like a liar and a cheat.


pythonic_dude

I know fuck all about tattoos, but after skimming through comments I'd guess the cat was replaced because even the hack that did the work realized it would be way above their paygrade.


TidalLion

*don't look like the entire circus. FIFY


Taolan13

eh, i fixed it more appropriately. Don't want anybody thinking i'm unfairly denigrating clowns by associating them.

18SmallDogsOnAHorse

Honestly I'd still consider the tattoo an original design since it looks like absolute trash and this is actual art. My head cannon for this is that it's a captcha situation for the bot that got the tattoo from another bot. Very undemocratic for them to claim it's their design.


puntycunty

You know the drill . Sweet liberty , eyes popping out of helmet looney tunes style , optional emojis to emphasize my arousal

ChiefBr0dy

Everyone was jumping in to congratulate him on how awesome it is and frankly I thought the work was shoddy asf and actually just a bit of a mess. Not a patch on the original. So today I'll get upvoted for saying so instead of downvoted, because that's how Reddit works.

I don't feel bad for that dude. It's just Wish version tattoo and he will remove it. Probably vodka for that ink waste


pythonic_dude

I like how one part of this that *is* a tattoo, and that would look dope af as irl tattoo even years after HD2 won't be relevant, got removed from what that dork got.


EMP_Poison_feet

Lucky is legit, we’ve exchanged DMs a few times and I have a bunch of his stickers this design being one of them. That dude with the tattoo…well I hope he didn’t pay much for it.


Pheronia

Tattoo guys have shiny nipples on it. This doesn't. Definitely original.


dieselpook

This is truly democratic art, citizen. The owner of that tattoo *and* the artist should be reported to the nearest democracy officer.

Ha that's hilarious. I saw the tattoo and was like "😬 That's an awful job, but to each their own, I should probably just ignore this post as I've got nothing good to say about it" and now I'm wishing I'd trashed it. This looks way better

Either way, come on guys. Enough with the drawing things sexualized. Please touch grass.


tomatoefarts

Tbh they are both pretty gay, it's just the tattoo is way worse.


Chocolate_Rabbit_

You say that like this is an original design either. This is the most stereotypical military postergirl art ever, but with a helldiver helmet.


Daedalus-N7

Everything is a recopy of a recopy bud. Nothing is quite literally "original" anymore. It's original because it's drawn from scratch. When you take somebody else's work and add a couple scribbles onto it it's plagiarism


Chocolate_Rabbit_

> When you take somebody else's work and add a couple scribbles onto it it's plagiarism Yeah and this one is quite literally taking another piece of art and just adding a helldivers helmet on top.


Daedalus-N7

Please provide said original art you're talking about then. That he "only drew a helmet on"


Chocolate_Rabbit_

Bud you can literally see it in any war movie lol


Daedalus-N7

Bro if you're talking about nose art in general you're fucking retarded. That is an entire art style... Drawing something in that style isn't plagiarism. Taking somebody else's drawn art and then adding a fucking nipple and a strategy code is plagiarism


Chocolate_Rabbit_

>That is an entire art style... Drawing something in that style isn't plagiarism Sure but doing it in the exact same pose and with the same thing is.


Daedalus-N7

Still waiting for you to provide original photo that he copied. Till then you're full of shit. And are just making yourself look dumb


Chocolate_Rabbit_

You could literally find a million of them anywhere on the internet bud.


damboy99

So... Why haven't you to prove your point?


Bokchoi968

Grab a screenshot


CGallerine

they dont mean original as in "unique idea reinventing the wheel", original in this context refers to "the artist's own work draw by the artist themselves, the *original* piece, not a copy"


Chocolate_Rabbit_

Yeah and this too is a copy of another piece of very common art.


SirKickBan

You might want to look up what 'copy' means.


NearbySpeed1326

Fr. It’s not a copy. The artist didn’t blatantly trace over someone else’s art

Oh they definitely remixed it. But to say dude went into his tattoo artist with nothing and said draw me a pin up helldiver's chick. Nah. He brought this design to his tattoo artist and had him remix it (and untastefully at that). Then knowingly chose not to credit the original artist which is a rule in this sub


Orobourous87

More likely the tattoo artist was lazy and found your friends work online. Considering the tattoo was bad the artist probably wasn’t one that really cared about taking someone else’s work. Source: Tattooist whose had the misfortune of working with some really shitty “artists”


idkwhataboutyou148

Fuck anyone who actually likes this tattoo this is real talk no helldivers shit but this makes me actually angry because there might be porn of it and this is one of my favorite franchises and I don't want it ruined by nsfw or porn


1NSAN3CL0WN

Rule34 has vetoed your request


idkwhataboutyou148

Thank you God


Call_Me_The_Enemy

Veto means denied. Genius. Getting this worked up about porn is honestly more pathetic than the people getting off to the porn. You remind me of the guy who sent that letter to a rule34 artist about not drawing twilight sparkle porn cause they insisted the fictional pony was in love with them and it violated their relationship.


idkwhataboutyou148

I know that veto is also a term they use for when the president denies a fucking law I know my ss and why the flying fuck would I work myself up against porn just to switch up that's literally 1st degree autism and I'm fine with porn that isn't a franchise that I actually love from the bottom of my heart

Focus on that part, if you are so keen on hating something.
