I must say I got a laugh out of the “cancer cuz of the colors” and “having to be ashamed to show it in public”. The point of a tattoo is that is should have deep significant meaning to the person wearing it. Whether that be Ghsotbusters, a sports team's logo, etc. I have a tattoo that I personally designed for my grandfather on my chest. At first glance when I'm on the beach or wherever I have my shirt off, it looks like a sailboat with some other details. People always ask me if I'm a big sailer and all that. It doesn't make me ashamed to tell them the meaning behind it or any of that. I'm proud to wear it and screw anyone who doesn't like it. They don't have to. The point is, it rendered my grandfather speechless when he saw what I had done for him. And before you even go there, no it wasn't because he was disappointed. He was so deeply touched that he couldn't speak.

Sorry for kind of going off on a rant there sandman. Didn't mean to hijack your thread, just kinda trying to help you make your point.

NO PROB Doctor V. Thanks for that. This fool just makes himself look stupid. I can't believe I got MAD over him. heh

For the record: the only person in the world who has the world's worst tattoos is this shmuck

Ok yea, that does look pretty lame.

Looks weird, but still original. Hey, if he likes it.

Yehome, you got your say. sandmanfvr, you got your rebuttal, though you kind of lost some of the upper hand by swearing so much - next time, rebutt, don't talk down. To the both of you, drop it now, please.

And as stupid as Mr. Cool Ice's tattoo is, there are waaaaay more stupid tattoos, trust me.

sandmanfvr, when your tattoo is done, please share it - at this point, everyone wants to see the finished product. And regardless, it's your tattoo - you got it done, you might as well wear it with pride. Personally, I often considered a tattoo of the characters myself - I think you're part of a very short list of people who have the GB characters as a tattoo, not just the logo (which is popular, it's fast turning into the new Tasmanian Devil.) To be honest, putting the guys around the logo is not a bad idea, as a lot of tattoo artists will apply the logo, which is circular, without bothering to take into account how it will distort - adding the guys helps pull it together, even if it moves when you move your arm.

And it's big - go big, or go home, right?

For the record, I think it looks pretty darn slick so far. Can't wait to see the final product. I personally would never want to get a tatoo so big, or geeky (no offense), but it obviously means a lot to you. And if you're comfortable with it, I think it looks pretty awesome on you.







….and is Mr. Cool Ice f*cking serious?! What an artard. I hope to God he was at least drunk when he did that.

This amongst many reasons is why Castewar will always be a better moderator than I. :

Yehome
Well, I'm not that stupid, who the f*ck on earth would tatoo the characters or a scene? Only the logo would have been enough!

Who'd get that? Someone who was dedicated to the idea or the fandom… and what's wrong with a scene when it's done this way? It's not like he'd have a 2.35:1 scaled rectangle of a whole scene on his back, although I bet the artist would love the dough something like that would bring in. He is neither stupid nor is the tattoo so lay off of the attitude, pal.

1) The tat might be cool when it will be finished and stuff, but how it's gonna be in 10 years? de-colored and wrinkled… Because your skin won't be that “good” forever.

How exactly is that your problem? Again it's neither your skin nor your dollar so I'm not sure why you seem to be getting so involved in it.

2) Money. Do I have to precise?

Some people spend their paychecks on eBay, some on video games, some on movies and some on replicating the props from Ghostbusters and Ghostbusters II. Again, it's his money, he can do with it as he desires… excluding burning it or funding terrorism.

3) Risks of getting skin cancer with colours, because, yeah, tattoo's colours is highly dangerous for the skin.

Again, his body, his risks. If anything, it could be more likely he could get Aids or another infection from the needle but again, it's his body.

4) Won't you be ashamed to show that on the beach or wherever you'll have to show your arms? (You might don't give a f* about the other's though, I dont mind)

What on earth type of question is that? Are you resorting to inventing reasons for why you think he shouldn't get the tattoo? You're kinda late seeing as the main outlines have already been done.

You're not giving him reasonable feedback as you would've left it in your first post and then sat back… you've come back and constantly berated him for simply getting something done he'll enjoy. I believe the criticism says more about you.

I must admit, you're a pussy, whining about his poorly done ugly tatto (*egon)

And that's completely out of order, mister.

wow, this went from one guy getting a really creative tattoo to nothing but bickering. granted sandmanfvr, i think the idea was a awesome one, but as it is now it doesn't really look good to me, but that's me. you're the one who is spending the money to get it done and you're gonna be the one who wears it. so wear it with pride, fellow ghosthead, for i am one of the people who wants to see the final product.

p.s. i'm still keeping the charity open to finish off the tattoo

Wikked ! it comming along great ! (^_^)
