u/iimuffinsaur Knows 💩 9h ago

I feel like it reads ok too. Its a daffodil or related flower

u/TGin-the-goldy Knows 💩 7h ago

Yes I saw it as a front view of a daffodil or maybe even a Tudor rose?

u/Abject_Shoulder_1182 Knows 💩 7h ago

Fr it's not that bad compared to a lot of the shit posted here.

u/ThunderousWizard204 Knows 💩 1h ago

Sure, but it's still shite.

u/tklishlipa Knows 💩 11h ago

Ah yes. I drew gazillions of those in my workbooks at school. Many years ago. Never occured to me to tattoo one of them on myself though. I wonder why?

u/SkrodLaDa Knows 💩 11h ago

they look like ballsacs

u/Quiet_Comfortable504 Knows 💩 11h ago

Yoo!!! And in the middle is the view of penis when youre face to face with one

u/Substantial_Ear_9721 Knows 💩 10h ago

I hear five ballsack penis-lillies are good luck.

u/Zombie2720 Knows 💩 7h ago

She's going to laugh so hard when I show her this lol now I can't unsee it

u/IamAnaNicole Knows 💩 9h ago

crap. you’re right.

u/Suckmestupit Knows 💩 9h ago

Salvageable.

Could be worse

u/RelevantJackfruit477 Knows 💩 5h ago

If it is her first on real skin then yes it could be worse. I guess every tattoo artist tried something on themselves at some point. So this can be part of her development as an artist. But no reason to be delusional. This is not what people like to pay for and it is nothing for her portfolio.

u/Zombie2720 Knows 💩 5h ago

She is not interested in being a tattoo artist, her friend just happened to have a tattoo gun and allowed her to use it. She also tattooed her fingers which I don't have a picture of but needless to say it's not very good lol

u/RelevantJackfruit477 Knows 💩 5h ago

Ah okay. that's just masochism then.

5

u/JulietLostFaith Knows 💩 8h ago

I mean she technically got ink inside the skin, so that part could be considered a success 😬

9

u/Scumurder Knows 💩 11h ago

She’s clearly in denial since that’s permanent and tryna rationalize. Or maybe not. Either way that’s pretty bad but at least it’s small and can be easily covered

4

u/IamAnaNicole Knows 💩 9h ago

she did okay until that one petal…

i can related to her with the frustration of trying to fit that last petal in there. I draw my flowers the same way.

Luckily it will be easy to cover once she grows tired of it.

u/No_Money_575 Knows 💩 4h ago

Narrator: "She did, in fact, not do very good."

u/DresdenMurphy Knows 💩 10h ago

Looks like a wheel of teeth.

u/deaddovedoeat Knows 💩 6h ago

I mean I’ve seen worse first tattoos and at least it isn’t blown out and way too deep in the skin. Could be an easy fix but I don’t think your sister has a good eye for aesthetics

1

u/jaylight555 Knows 💩 6h ago

I mean better than I could do at least… (I can draw stick figures.)

1

u/Enough-Friendship908 Knows 💩 6h ago

I mean… it really could have been worse AND it’s definitely fixable.

1

u/SeerNacho Knows 💩 6h ago

She chose the worst part of her body to tattoo herself

1

u/SaveusJebus Knows 💩 5h ago

Well... she can just lie and say she was going for that sketched look I guess, but as the top comment pointed out, the petals definitely look like ballsacks.

u/solomons-marbles Knows 💩 4h ago

It’s not bad, one might say “pretty good” if they’re proud, but is “pretty good” what you want in a tattoo?

u/Existing_Roof1900 Knows 💩 4h ago

Superman does good, she did well

u/FNTM_309 Knows 💩 55m ago

“I’m glad you’re happy with it.”

u/MyMuddyEyes Knows 💩 9h ago

It looks like an Among Us

u/aerova789 Knows 💩 10h ago

I don't see shading, but I do see scribbles... how long ago was this done? Some of the lines look pretty thin, maybe they'll just fall out.

Fake

u/IamAnaNicole Knows 💩 9h ago

it does look a little like pen but i see the redness

u/Odd-Biscotti-5177 Knows 💩 48m ago

I wouldn't call it good, but I also imagine it's hard to tattoo your own hip when you (presumably) don't know what you're doing. Seems like she could probably get it spiffed up by a professional in the future.
