‘That’s It, I’m Inkshaming’: 30 Times People Didn’t Even Realize How Bad Their Tattoos Were
Not all tattoos are inked equal. While some are stunning and wow people with their artistic merit, some others can force a double-take, making folks wonder what exactly happened there. Welcome to the ‘That’s It, I’m Inkshaming’ Facebook group, a community of nearly 243k members who poke fun at ‘Actually Bad Tattoos.’
The group is meant for posting “truly awful,” low-quality ink, all in the hope of making people laugh. It’s not meant to be mean and there’s no place for general jerkiness. We’ve collected some of the group’s most interesting features photos, the crème de la crème of bad tattoos, to share with you today, dear Pandas. Scroll down and enjoy.
Meanwhile, be sure to read on for Bored Panda’s in-depth interview with the owner of Glasgow-based Archangel 1608 Tattoo Studio, talented tattoo artist David McKinlay.

Tattoo artist David, who runs the Archangel 1608 Tatoo Studio in Scotland, was kind enough to answer Bored Panda’s questions about tattoos.
We spoke about how tattoo artists hone their skills, whether or not customers are always right, and what happens if an artist makes a mistake while tattooing someone.
“Tattooists can practice on any number of things initially, to help them get the mechanics and techniques to tattoo properly,” David explained to Bored Panda.

Getting a tattoo of your child's face seems like such a sweet sentimental thing to do, but I have never seem one that actually looks good. This is one of the less aweful examples I've seen. Names, initials, birthdates, or something more abstract are all infinitely better than poorly recreated photos of baby faces.
Jef Bateman 3 years ago
This looks horrible, but also I realize that it's hard to portray bright faces when you are working with dark pigments on somebody's skin that is already a shade darker than your subject.

small children are specially hard, because their skin and features are soft, not wrinkles or strong features to guide you...takes time to learn.

GoddessOdd 3 years ago
If I am seeing this right... he got the head first, which is supposed to be Kobe, but no one knew that, so he added the kindergarten drawing of the player wearing number 24 to help people understand that it was supposed to be Kobe... ?
“You can buy synthetic skin, pig skin from a butcher’s, or even use fruit, such as oranges or lemons, bananas,” he told us.
However, the tattoo artist pointed out to Bored Panda that there is “no substitute for moving, breathing, sweating, bleeding human skin.” In short, nothing beats the real thing. And sooner or later you’ll have to switch to inking real live human beings. Though, later is best. Once you’ve got the fundamentals down and feel confident.

“The first 4 or 5 tattoos I ever did were on myself. It was a pretty severe learning curve, but I had to prove that I wanted the apprenticeship, and it let me see how the tattoos would heal up, and what I could do better,” David revealed to Bored Panda the dedication that he personally had for his craft when he was just starting out.
“You shouldn’t really be tattooing actual clients for a long time, but if you can persuade friends to let you once you’re ready, that’s great,” he said.

Bored Panda was very interested to learn about the dynamic between artists and their customers. David explained that they have a rule that if they’re not 100 percent confident about the tattoo, they don’t do it.
“We’ll try to offer a compromise, but if the client is too rigid, we’ll point them in the direction of another artist. The client is only right in terms of what they like, not how the tattoo can actually be done or will end up looking,” he said.

Worst is, these people proudly display their tattoos and eagerly show them off.

I just nod and walk away. I can't.
Phill Healey 3 years ago (edited)
Exactly, I get that art is subjective. But, when it comes to tattoos their is quite clearly tattoo dog s**t v tattoo art. I'd estimate about 99% of Global tattoo work is in the dog s**t category and I can't fathom for the life of me how people are ok with crap on their bodies. Tattoos are essentially on you for life. You should want only the best not: "but it was cheap" P.s. I'm a fan of tattoos just not the shite stuff that is so predominant. It's easy to find a good tattooist. Just rlook at their past work and what physical "real" art they produce. If they can't do it on paper they shouldn't be doing it on your skin.

Like any other artists and craftsmen out in the wide world, tattooists can make mistakes, too. There’s no such thing as perfection in any craft. It’s best to learn from any mistakes and, most importantly, to learn to control your fear.
“Sometimes, a client will sneeze, or move to answer their phone, meaning the tattoo has an extra line or detail,” David said.

At first glance it seems kind of ok, it's not as bad as others on this list. But if you look at the details... Untidy lines (check the nose, the arrow on the head, or the 'zig-zags' at the paws), eyes of different sizes/color (altough it may be the bad lightning of the picture), the yellow and blue "shadowing" is badly executed... It's new on the picture, so it kind of looks ok (emphasis on "kind of"), but such light colors used for thin lines won't age well, that's for sure. And the little imperfections will just get messier with time.

Extremely obvious that we were using the 'Jesus of Nazareth' cover as a reference. But, you gotta line up the eyes!!

no. is completely ok,..is your own skin, nobody took your money, and you get to practice...nothing bad about it
Kimi Tomminello 3 years ago
After you practice on oranges for a little bit the natural progression is to start tatting yourself. I've played human pin cushion for tattoo/ piercing interns (free work) and noticed a lot of them had little tattoos like this on their hands and arms. They did them themselves to practice simple lines and intended to cover them the following year. Had an interesting time.

I like it I think the drawing is cool you can see both beauty and beast it just depends on how you look at it.

Is the last digit supposed to be a seven, or did they forget to put the bottom line on a one?

I don't know what's worse...the drawing or that he's sporting them pale thighs...don't just draw the sun, get some sun!

I like the *concept,* but the execution leaves much to be desired.

Ool Idea, Bad Execution. I Figured By The Shape It Was A Snake, But I Had To Zoom In To The Head To Figure Out What It Was. Wth Is Up With Those Fangs And Tongue??
Final score:

I have dermatographia and may tattoos look like this for a couple days after getting them done. Don't know if that's the case for this one, though

This doesn't belong here. Beautiful Luna moth. Semicolon is the symbol for those who suffer from a range of mental/emotional challenges Luke depression.
Laura Lawson 3 years ago
Actually the semi colon represents those who have come back from suicide attempts or thoughts & those who support them. In English grammar, a semi colon is used instead of a full stop when there is more text to follow; the same applies metaphorically. But this tattoo is still s**t.

While it may have symbolism its still a bad tattoo , line work is wonky the color satuartion is bad . This will look worse and worse as time goes on

Someone needs to explain perspective to the artist. Close things look bigger than things that are farther away, not vice versa.

It has two points in its favor: the eyes aren't horrible, and at least you can tell who it's supposed to be. The rest is just sad.

What makes people think tattoing faces is good idea? I have some understanding when it's face of your SO/kid/dog etc, but I have absolutely no clue why would anyone want (bad) portrait of a celebrity imprinted forever on their body. BTW do you know anyone with Bill Cosby tattoo?
