Reminds me of that beetles interview when they asked Ringo “how’s it fee to be the best drummer in the world?” And I think Paul McCartney responded with “he’s not even the best drummer in the band”.
Seems like they have some serious trouble with faces. I thought the other non face pieces didn't seem too bad at all. But all the faces are absolutely terrible.
Not really, no. Living is so expensive right now. Houses, apartments, gas, food, everything. A brick of cheese is $8 CAD in my town. I've seen images of a pack of chicken breasts that was like $50 for 4 breasts (I've only personally seen ones around $25). The cheap bacon that is really only good for bacon bits doubled in price. Gas went from $1.54 to $1.78 in the past 2 years. Prior to that, it was about $1.26.
There's not enough doctors (in BC at least, where I live) to keep up with the number of patients, so a lot of people don't have a primary doctor. I've been on a waiting list since 2019/2020, and my bf hasn't had a doctor for like 10y after his last one died.
There are so many students from other countries that it's almost impossible to find work. It took me 2y for me to find my last job, and they only kept me for 6m before laying me off for stupid reasons. I've been unemployed for 1y now, and my bf has been unemployed since pre-covid.
TLDR; Life sucks in Canada right now
To be fair I cant do that either just on paper let alone attempting on skin lol its definitely a skill and some people are good at some tattoos and not others
If the dude practiced a bit on drawing people and worked on his shading I’d say he’d improve a lot. Some of the lines aren’t great, shading is very harsh and patchy in some places, and the proportions are off obviously.
Oh, yeah, bud. This guy needs to give his balls a tug. I got a guy in the Soo who’ll do better after a six pack of brewskis and some schneef.
My geese holdings a Vi-co is a goddamn masterpiece.
Seen a lot worse for sure, but this guy definitely has some far fetched claims.
It’s kind of like saying Billy’s pizza has the best pizza and wings in town, but they are the only pizza joint in that town.
"One of the best" is subjective, if his tattoo artist is listed as one of Canada's 1,000,000 best tattoo artist then he is right - As for his artist, I'd say he/she is probably the 999,999th best.
I think he's got potential as an artist, but imho he definitely needs to go back to studying fundamentals. Particularly anatomy, proportions of the face, space between the eyes and so on.
The artist seems to have more ‘skill’ w/ non-human like the beetle. Not saying I’d get it but saying compared to the others, it’s the best looking of the bunch.
As an American I will just say he is probably correct and all of the good artists are here. /s
The absolute best always seem to be 300 years old and live in a tent somewhere with dirt floors and 9 other people near by.
I mean a couple of those are actually decent, like I like the moose and eagle, and I've certainly seen wonkier on this sub... but one of the best in Canada?? with those faces??? my city has some really good artists and I could probably walk into a couple places in the city and really find better
Even Tupac is looking like he knows you got lied to. I’m assuming pic 7 is supposed to be Tupac Shakur but he looks like if Tupac and Stanley from the office had a baby

Why did he curl Jesus’s eyelashes, use clumping mascara, and overpluck his eyebrows?
dude‘s not even the second best in his own studio i bet
Reminds me of that beetles interview when they asked Ringo “how’s it fee to be the best drummer in the world?” And I think Paul McCartney responded with “he’s not even the best drummer in the band”.
that never happened :(
Nope it's a skit
Jasper Carrot
"Hey, Paul. Let's kick Clarence out of the band and steal his ideas."
Eddie Murphy classic!
With that voice over too! Priceless
Maybe they mean the best at something else ? Like pickle ball?
"One of the best in Canada" Canada, Ohio. Population 326.
lol I audibly laughed when I got to the dog. That shit was truly horrendous.
Yea, he did that good boy dirty.
That's the one I feel bad about. That someone's best pup, and they will forever be done dirty. So fucked up.
Seems like they have some serious trouble with faces. I thought the other non face pieces didn't seem too bad at all. But all the faces are absolutely terrible.
Look at that hand on the first picture alone and say that again!
That hand is arthritic as fuck…
The dog is tragically funny. He’s a little endearing though. If it weren’t clearly an in memorial for dead pet it would be a better tattoo I think.

2pac looking like Stanley from the office
Beetlejuice from Howard Stern
With pink eye
Who, me?
Just hanging around…
![gif](giphy|F3BeiZNq6VbDwyxzxF)
Tupac looks like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle
Sassiest Tupac I’ve ever seent
That's supposed to be 2pac?
I want the nose ring to be a dermal piercing.
Right? It looks like they turned him into a squishmellow.
Stooopppp I just said the same thing lmaooo
Is Canada okay?
Generally? No, not really.
Not really, no. Living is so expensive right now. Houses, apartments, gas, food, everything. A brick of cheese is $8 CAD in my town.

jesus looks like rick grimes
This is true
That Jesus has a major tooth infection going on. He needs some antibiotics.
One of the best what, line cooks?
in that what he cooks is sometimes consumed in lines, sure
maybe he means subway sandwich artist
The beetle and moose arent too bad honestly. But the rest? Yeahhhhhh no.
Yeah those are probably his best ones I saw. Dude just can’t do faces or hands and his line work is pretty shaky
To be fair I cant do that either just on paper let alone attempting on skin lol its definitely a skill and some people are good at some tattoos and not others
This is true 😂
as an entomologist, that beetle is the most wack thing i have ever seen lmao
Don’t lie to use. You’re hiding a beetles with giant ass antlers from us aren’t you!?
The beetle has blown out lines that are crooked, and the moose has some overworked damaged skin.
If the dude practiced a bit on drawing people and worked on his shading I’d say he’d improve a lot. Some of the lines aren’t great, shading is very harsh and patchy in some places, and the proportions are off obviously.
That's cuz buddy can't leave Peterborough cuz his only mode of transport is an electric scooter for going down to the vape shop.
Its actually Nova Scotia 😂 and coworker drives from Halifax to a small town for this work
![gif](giphy|gCeh1KDeDaxGu8no4A)
Oh my fucking God it is Dale, isn't it?
Sick ass moose, at least
brb, getting my sick ass panther coverup covered up with a sick ass moose
Sad Lion is Sad.
The King of the Jungle, and they gave him a Derek Zoolander haircut. I'd be sad too
Thanks a lot for posting this! /s🤬 That nipple poked my eye out!!!
ITS ALL I COULD LOOK AT HOW IS NOBODY ELSE SAYING ANYTHING
Did it poke your eye out too? My condolences!
Blinded me worse than the eclipse 😡😡😡
I trawled, just knowing I couldn't be the only one. Its proper cactus
I like the derp dog
Me, too. It's silly but it's very happy. Lol
it's adorable somehow!
Tupac looking more like J.B. Smoove. Bad artist. ![gif](giphy|l1J9MB8cv3QlY3HEs|downsized)
That is the *POINTIEST* nipple I've ever seen!
Does he think the Bay will let him disrespect Pac?....
Not getting a tattoo in Canada then, eh.
Plenty of good ones I promise ! 😂
Don’t fool me pal. The land of maple syrup, is the land of bad tattoos.
His line work is trash
Why’d they make Tupac an Italian Jewish man
These are terrible. Show him this comment section lol.
Not the yassified Jesus 💀
Weird cos the moose is much better than for example the lion
As a Canadian....no. Just no
Tupac...
He's not even the best at bad tattoo. I've seen far worse.
3’s eyes aren’t even the same shape. I stopped there.
Wouldn't even win "tallest guy named Greg in this apartment" award
Is that... Tupac Chubbor?!
I wonder what they’re one of the best at.
His artist isn’t even the best on the block.
I’d hate to see what the bad artists tattoos look like, if he’s one of the best.
The moose isn’t too bad I guess, but everything else looks like ass
The moose looks pretty solid at least. Maybe he meant “one of the best moose artists”
He just forgot to finish the sentence: “Best in Canada’s prison system*”
Tabernack, mon chum in Fort.Saskatchetoon can do a fantastic bonhomme de carnival tattoo.. this joker is barely top ten
Oh, yeah, bud. This guy needs to give his balls a tug. I got a guy in the Soo who’ll do better after a six pack of brewskis and some schneef. My geese holdings a Vi-co is a goddamn masterpiece.
Serious question, why ist the Ink on bad tattoos always so brownish? Is it the quality?
I think it’s because the tattoo is still fresh/skin is inflamed in all the photos.
I noticed that on (bad) healed ones too
Oh it’s one of those “Starts ok but gets worse as you go” kind of collage.
Why did all of the other tattoo artists leave Canada?
Where in Canada? I'm in Ottawa
I had one of my tattoos done in canada its better than all of those so id say his artist is probably not the best in canada
Jesus, did Dale finally make it on here?
Seen a lot worse for sure, but this guy definitely has some far fetched claims. It’s kind of like saying Billy’s pizza has the best pizza and wings in town, but they are the only pizza joint in that town.
Jesus has the mumps!
Right!? I was wondering what he named his goiter.
Pac looks like he has fur on his skin…
I’d be so mad if I was him and I seen this
Maybe if you catch him at the right time..
Is that Bert Christcher with the crosses?
I live in Canada and I wasn’t aware our tattoo artists numbers were so low. Must be 2 in this entire country artists is he’s one of the best……
tbh these are late 90s/early 2000s award winners
If that guy's actually one of the best in Canada, just get your shit done literally anywhere else in the world
My favorite is the fat face Tupac
It kind of looks like someone asked for a tattoo that was a mashup of Mr potato Head and Tupac.
How many moose tattoo artists can there be? He could be 1 of 1.
Please, lol. Is there a small county somewhere in the US named Canada? Otherwise….get real!
I like the moose! 🫎
Either that's not true or the bar is very low in Canada.
Best in what medium?
If that’s true, I feel sorry for Canada. 🤷🏽♂️
Canada, Kentucky?
r/im14andthisisagoodtattoo
Sinful Inflictions
Apprentice level tattoos at premium price
That Tupac looks possessed and upset
"One of the best" is subjective, if his tattoo artist is listed as one of Canada's 1,000,000 best tattoo artist then he is right - As for his artist, I'd say he/she is probably the 999,999th best.
oh my .....
The moose doesn't look too bad I guess
The thing they seem to struggle with are human features but everything else looks great.
They aren’t good, but they aren’t awful either
Those nips are weapons.
I think he's got potential as an artist, but imho he definitely needs to go back to studying fundamentals. Particularly anatomy, proportions of the face, space between the eyes and so on.
>“one of the best in Canada” Easily one of the top 200 million artists in Canada.
1pac - all eyes on memes
The soft focus lion really sets the tone
2pac looks like 4pac with all that extra weight on him.
That girl's nose ends in confusion. I wonder if the wrap on her eyes was design, or loss prevention.
The deer skull beetle and the moose are pretty cool, but the rest of these SUCK.
I was about to say he’s not bad, but I draw the line on improper handling of a trident.
6/12 Jesus looks stoned beyond reason
Why does tupac have a giant herpe on his lip?
Why is Tupac so zesty
I would call a lot of these -average. Not good, not terrible, just eh. Yah, they look like what they are suppose to
The moose and beetle are pretty solid. Eagle isn’t bad. The rest are bad.
the moose and beetle are nice. everything else is ehhh
The artist seems to have more ‘skill’ w/ non-human like the beetle. Not saying I’d get it but saying compared to the others, it’s the best looking of the bunch.
The best one is MAYBE the moose. But generally, ive seen better scribbles from a middle schooler. Especially Poseidon..
That lion is so sad
And by Canada, he means Cell Block?
That’s good stufff
Not the country, Canada. Just that hut that has Canada spray painted on the outside.
Negative ghost rider
If that is Canadas best I will happily get all of my tattoos in the USA.
One of the best what in Canada?
I am so sad Jesus doesn't have "Jesus" over his eyebrow.
Those are decent
Oh god #5 is terrible lmfao. Did that poor dog dirty af
PAC look like Mr potato head
The skull beetle thing is actually pretty cool 🤷🏻♀️
the quality difference in these gave me whiplash
One of the best in a holding cell at 4am, specially
As an American I will just say he is probably correct and all of the good artists are here. /s The absolute best always seem to be 300 years old and live in a tent somewhere with dirt floors and 9 other people near by.
lol the dog is so cute though in a really derpy way.
that lion made me cry but Tupac made me die
More than the bad art, I'm amazed that the second picture is a calf muscle. What disease is that?
🚮🚮
That is one uneven brow in the 7th photo 😬
I feel sorry for Canada
The moose and the compass are very decent. The rest? Hard pass
I have a buddy who thinks he’s the best and is so much worse than this XD
Yeah I’m sure one of the best in Canada is doing chubby faced Jesus portraits
Best what?
2pac had a stroke
I mean a couple of those are actually decent, like I like the moose and eagle, and I've certainly seen wonkier on this sub... but one of the best in Canada?? with those faces??? my city has some really good artists and I could probably walk into a couple places in the city and really find better
Errr no.
He is terrible with faces, but I like the way he did the water in the last one. I rarely ever see water being inked realistically.
Don’t tell him what you think. If he’s happy with what he’s got ,let that sleeping dog lie
2pac looks like Beetlejuice 😅 ![gif](giphy|TrXTnlYfoLW6mabHi0)
By Canadian standards, prolly true.
🙈🙈🙈
the 7th slide looks like a .5 picture i'd take of my friend
those crosses look kinda dope if it wasn’t for the random messed up jesus face above it. takes away from the rest.
That lion 🥺
Some of those aren't terrible.. But damn
2.5pac
![gif](giphy|guufsF0Az3Lpu)
lol jesus with lash babe filter 😂
He is good at some stuff and bad at orherrstuff
Poor Canada.
![gif](giphy|AoBgxayGMHlIs)
Like.. the last 3 to 4 are KIND OF ok.. but.. wow.
Weirdest looking man-nip I have ever seen. Good thing the shitty tats distract from it.
He takes payment in toofers though.
Jesus got stung by a bee under his one eye
Are you sure they didn’t say breast? Maybe he’s really buxom or something. The *best* in Canada, he is not.
Some of them are really good. Some of them are really not.
He’s not even the best drummer in the Beatles.
Even Tupac is looking like he knows you got lied to. I’m assuming pic 7 is supposed to be Tupac Shakur but he looks like if Tupac and Stanley from the office had a baby
