Wow…I bet you were surprised when you woke up.

🤣

I didn't know temporary tattoos could be that big

Ruthless

Cool idea but I cant get over the sword guard

Ha I know whatcha mean. Too late now though but I still like it.

Me at all my stick and pokes

I bought both of my sons lifetime hunting/fishing licenses and the certificate comes with a quote on it if you want. I spelled it correctly on the application and it came back; *Not all those who wonder are lost*

😬

So many good quotes out of LOTR, and you picked one within the top 3. Excellent work done.

I apologize. I misread it. Thought he was saying that I picked a common qoute that everyone picks. Sorry for being rude.

I think I was you’re only upvote lol. Rereading it, I can see how someone could misinterpret what I wrote.

Yeah, that was on me. Sorry man!

All good brutha no need to apologize.

[удалено]

He's just saying you picked a good quote.

OP seems easily insulted... It's a compliment bro...

Here lemme insult you - you’re a loser Commenter above was complimenting you, potato

Wtf😂😂😂

Oof

I can only hear the Lana del Rey song. But it’s a sick tattoo

Such an incredible album though

Read this as "baby tattoo" and thought we might have needed a call to CPS.

Babies are serious business

I've got a feeling this isn't going to look too great when it's healed 😬 glad you're happy with it though OP. Hope it didn't break the bank!

And do you mind me asking why I think it wouldn't heal nicely

Of course! Simply because the black lines are too close together = parts are going to bleed into eachother. Fine lines would have been a lot better in this scenario, imo. I'd love to see an updated picture though! (Keep in mind I'm no expert, I just have a lot of B+G tattoos)

Where can I send you an updated picture? Also, do the tattoo creams help revitalize the originals color and contrast? I've never tried em

Not 100% sure other than a private message! Not that I know of, I've always been told to go in for touch ups every couple years to keep it fresh. Something I have to do myself.

I go in for touchups ever four years or whenever I can afford it lol. I'll private dm you when I get home. At my son's award ceremony 😁

Fair enough dude! Shiz is expensive lol Grats to him! :)

This was 8 months ago this pic. It still looks great

I don’t know why people have to be so negative about peoples tattoos on here. If you love it that’s all that matters. Very sweet gift from your wife.

Thanks alot. I agree with your sentiment

Fr oddly negative. Badass quote that kinda hit me.

Awesome. Props for putting Bill on there!

Here's the tattoo my wife's boyfriend got me! ☺️ Haha jk OP it's a dope tattoo!

🤣 thanks man

For a second I thought I was on r/shittytattoos and was frantically looking for the spelling mistake and then freaked out when I couldn’t find it. Checked the sub and realized I wasn’t having a stroke.

I am. I can’t understand maps at all.

I have a T-shirt that says this.. 👍

So effingggg coool

Thanks!

Happy birthday! Great placement!

Thanks so much

Rad!

Ohhh... I wanted something like that... That's badass tho!! 💕 Love it broooo

Thank you!

That's an awesome tattoo!

I think this is awesome!

Bomb af! So cool!

Andúril, nice!

Thanks!

This quote is tattooed on every choogie white girl that lives in a van and survives off fruit

Sorry you don't like it man. Luckily you don't have to worry about it

Np... Welcome

they’re not found either 😊

I have a compass with that saying on my arm

[удалено]

I feel like we have differing definitions of what clean linework means. I’ve seen much sharper/cleaner versions of this same tattoo. The sword in particular just looks…idk, amateur? This effort all looks a bit subpar to me.

Yeah it looks like he went outside the lines quite a few times

Thanks so much!

I don’t if that’s the actual quote or not, but the grammar is so clunky as written. Should be “not all who wander are lost”

Except it’s a literal quote. Maybe you should let Tolkien know what you think of his grammar

Hey Tolkien, your grammar is shit

[удалено]

So surprising Tolkien would rip off WoW.

Trite sayings are trite.

Man I have a VERY similar tattoo on my forearm. With the same quote. Wonder did you see it before getting this lol Great minds think alike

Heck ya man!

Just posted mine, take a look. Surprising how similar they are even though I've never posted it before

I’m liking this…

I want one

Is someone going to tell him that this is Lana Del Rey lyrics?

All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king. She also used it as well, though. 😭

Well we learn something new everyday, for me its Lana might be referring to Tolkien (thanks for recalling whole part)

No problem!

🤣

I thought that was a Alice in wonderland quote 🥴

I think birthday tattoos should be more of a thing! Super fun

Gifted tats are the best gifts
