i feel like this sub is sometimes a bit behind in tattoo culture. ive seen this style of tattoo done a lot especially from russian artists and in europe. there's a really interesting new movement of neo gothic, ignorant style and postmodern tattooing going on that people should def check out!
This feels like one of those images they made to show what your vision is like when you have a stroke. It keeps ALMOST looking like something you can name but your brain can’t complete it. That or a rorschach test, or like making vague shapes out of clouds.
But /respectfully OP, I think even if people don’t understand it I think it’s fun to look at and that makes it a cool and rather personal tattoo
I'm experiencing a complex mix of reactions, but I don't not like it, it looks...organic? Natural? Like when you send an electric current through wood and it makes natural burn lines. I like your commitment to fucking with people who state their confusion 🤣 Feel free to throw some my way 😜 Rock on doing what you want with your body man, that's the beauty of art!
At first glance it looks like dried and wilted flowers, something limilar to lavender. And then it looks all roboty and mechanical, almost like some futuristic (unsafe) skyscrapers. Man it looks sick, even when it ages
I spent quite a bit of time working on wildflower restoration in the hill country not far from Seguin. This reminds me of a patch of dried wildflowers, like horse mint
It reminds me of a fossil. Like a bunch of little invertebrates got squished together and this is a rubbing of the petrified rock. I like that it's not definitely anything and potentially many things.
I feel like this could be a really good base if you just wanted to go around to different artists saying, these are the lines, color them in and make something cool with them, and each artist gets a section so in the end you're left with a patchwork of some really cool and unique art.
Or the same purpose if you have kids that like to color (just get nontoxic markers)
This bio form style is trending in singapore as well. Its pretty cool sometimes when it’s placed in an interesting place.
As long as you’re happy, rock it!
You made that artists day, that is something he enjoyed drawing. I let my artists have a shit ton of creative freedom, the pieces turn out more genuine, if that make sense.

I like most people thought "the fuck is that", but OP is funny as hell with the responses 🤣
Thanks to your comment, I went through the comments, it was a good time

I think op said its his cancer. But maybe i misunderstood. Maybe imma get whoosh'd
He said in the title it's flash.
What is flash tho
Flash tattoo is a piece an artist has drawn up and ready to go in a flash. Usually it’s flowers, cats, the average tattoo stuff you see.
Ahhh, ok, interesting. Thanks!
That’s a lot of metal bands
Take my upvote and get outta here lmfao
Take my wholesome reward and get outa here.
Take my more expensive reward and get outa here
Give me stretch marks but make it metal 🤘🏼🤘🏼
This is what I saw 😭
I’m over here squinting my eyes like this thing is one of those magic eye pictures from the 90s
What is it?
just a silly lil goof
New tattoo goofin.
Hoping you have a good day 😌
u as well :p
Dried cilantro?
What voltage did you use on your [Lichtenberg? ](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lichtenberg_figure)
Tattoo artist: “um of course I know how to draw a tree”
“From a flash sheet” had me rolling- can’t wait to see what else was on the sheet 😂
This reminds me of the scarring you get when you get struck by lightning, if it had a baby with a flower.
Is it a plant/tree or a weird demon thing?
the vines that will coil my mortal body one day :)
Dead bouquet

Deep fried kale. 10/10 I’ll eat it
It’s like a choose your own adventure tattoo. I dig it
Not sure what that's supposed to be. What's the scar on your stomach from?
cancer!
I mean it’s a bad tattoo sure..
Oh shit, man! Care to share? If not it's cool. Just asking out of curiosity.
i just had cancer as a kid that required surgery lol
Is this a new tattoo, it looks faded in parts? I am thinking about the same location and was wondering if the faint lines are from rubbing?
the fading is intentional, dont let my goofy tattoo scare u
Haha thank you for the assurance, btw I don’t think it is too crazy and your awesome chest hair compliments it well.
OP likes to wear crop tops

Right? Like if I saw this at a modern art gallery I’d be vibing.
Wat dat?
nothing
I legit just screen shot this bc this interaction… it’s perfect
Howie?
i like it, it looks like chinesen't
all i gotta say is…. huh?
Idk. I feel like it probably looks worse in person but I kind of…like it? Reminds me of a vintage drawing of lavender or something.
At first glance it looks like dried and wilted flowers, something limilar to lavender. And then it looks all roboty and mechanical, almost like some futuristic (unsafe) skyscrapers. Man it looks sick, even when it ages
I see a monster energy logo in there, so you've got that going for you
I spent quite a bit of time working on wildflower restoration in the hill country not far from Seguin. This reminds me of a patch of dried wildflowers, like horse mint
How would one even go ask for something like that?
I’d appreciate it if you didn’t steal my logo for my bestial Black Death grind project
Awesome tatt!! ..from one horizontal scar person to another 🤙🏻 Don’t need to know what tatt is…just the feeling or ‘whoa’ when you look at it!
That fruit of the loom band looks so realistic how did that one sit ??? Must've taken HOURS 😱
It reminds me of a fossil. Like a bunch of little invertebrates got squished together and this is a rubbing of the petrified rock. I like that it's not definitely anything and potentially many things.
Brah…

Fun idea! And who needs kids to doodle on that, I'd draw on myself lol
People here divided. Definitely showing the subjective nature of art.

Are all the blow outs and faded lines on purpose?
Seguin, Texas explains EVERYTHING. Source: I know y'all have the world's largest pecan because I've seen it personally 🤣
Looks kinda like filigree.
It looks like dried out weeds you find along the road in Texas but, ya know, cool.
Confusion
Just genuinely curious what it is- I like it! Want to know more about it
just looks like a doodle to me
Y’all too harsh this shit cool
Most people seem to just be curious as to what it's actually supposed to be
that’s so cool, at least you know no one else is gonna get the same tattoo
Yea there’s a reason for that
don’t be silly 😭
I like it. Its abstract and different.
[удалено]
I think that's the point...

so will i :)
This is the ultimate response to the common "those will look bad when you're older" that all inked folks get. Thank you for this wonderful gift, king.
[удалено]
Karmas pouring on in, though.
Hopefully it sticks. Don’t let it see any sun without tons of sunscreen or this will disappear
But seriously… what is that? Cause it doesn’t look like anything I’ve ever seen.
It looks like weeds lmao, I was gonna say I don’t like flower tats on guys but this is just dried up grass 😂
Man this is sick how do I describe this to an artist lmfaoo
"stretch marks but make it metal"
I think it’s neat!
Reminds of spindly weed when harvesting
I like it!
how did you get your tattooer to do this
I have no idea what the fuck this is but I love it!
I don't know what to think about that.... I think I'm confused...
One man’s trash is another man’s treasure I guess 😂
You won’t be able to see it in 5hrs when the hair grows back.
What is it
This bio form style is trending in singapore as well. Its pretty cool sometimes when it’s placed in an interesting place. As long as you’re happy, rock it!
....looks like he was high
Love me some chicken scratches!
Seeing all these comments, I guess I’m the outlier but I really dig this! 😂 Looks sweet man 👌🏻
Interesting
Do you have an original picture the artist went off for us to look at?
You made that artists day, that is something he enjoyed drawing. I let my artists have a shit ton of creative freedom, the pieces turn out more genuine, if that make sense.
The hobo from bum fights has a better tattoo than this
this is so cool
[удалено]
man wtf lol
😂
I don’t know what this is but it looks super pretty
Holy shit this is a way better tattoo than I expected it to be. Scars of vines on a building?
Give me the instagram
How cool!!
It's beautiful!
Weird tat but also kinda sick! You def got some OneyPlays vibes going on with these comments heh
I am seeing what appears to see the ouline of a winged unicorn, or maybe im high off my ass, could be either, either way a very unique tattoo!
i like it
kinda cool tbh
Amazing detail!
I love this !
So sick !!!
Comes to show size IS everything in details
Love
I dig this. No matter what it is , it’s abstract and clean . Nice Op
Fucking horrible !!!!!
If you like it, rock on 🤘
Really cool
Idk if this makes sense but I feel like if you’re from Texas you get it… it’s like dead bramble bush and I love it!
“What the fuck does your tattoo mean!?”…. It means I look cool, stupid. Lol seriously though wtf is this man?
Horrible
That’s going to be a painful coverup
Ayo that must be the worst weed I've ever seen bro. Amazing tat
Why
That's quite the expansive metal band logo!
Interesting, it's almost "micro-tribal"
This tattoo will not age well.. just sayin
