[@jimsimpson2393]

I am 75. I wear no jewelry and I have no tattoos. I have long wondered what motivates people to have tattoos inscribed on their bodies. Your "Worth It Tattoos, Pts. 1 & 2" provided the clearest and most compelling answer. The artists creating the images were each committed to their craft. Scott, however, was a true artist searching for meaning. You gave him that in emotionally powerful descriptions he was able to interpret and express on your skin. You have been working through a number of life challenges. I hope the reminders you placed on your arm have helped guide you to the lifestyle you have been seeking. Thanks for sharing and be well.

ThisBodyIsAShell what does that look like?

[@s0urc333]

Felix Vegge usually a faded puddle of color. A realistic tattoo will only last in black and grey and usually has to be super dark at first. When you see the tattoo this guy got a lot of the black shading is already weak and there’s no lines. When you don’t have solid thick black lines in a tattoo the color just puddles up and doesn’t add contrast. A guy like Tim Hendricks can do a portrait or “realistic” tattoo. And it will actually last for a life time, unlike this color puddle that kinda resembles a teddy bear and won’t in a year

[@2300emmanuel]

ThisBodyIsAShell it really depends on how well the tattoo had been made... For example, if you tattoo hands, you have to shoot the ink deeper under the skin. And seeing how well his first tattoo held up, I think this one is to - and if it don't, they usually re-ink it, for free

There are so many stereotypes against tattoos and when I got my first one with my mother, she told me, “a tattoo, no matter what it is, signifies something specific about who you were in that point of time, so you can look back at when you were 17 and always remember what you felt or what made you, you” The way he tied in a billion elements to be a huge sentiment to who he loved is amazing.

I love how dedicated the artist clearly is to his craft, from his quality of work to his customer policy. For me, it represents his pride as an artist and desire to make sure it is a piece that he will truly be proud of having worked on, as well as wanting to ensure that his art has meaning to the one getting it done. He wants to know the stories behind why someone wants what they do, making sure there is a deep emotional connection there that they can be reminded of every time they look at it, and that it looks good on their skin and any other work they have done. Really ensuring it is something that won't be regretted by either party later on. He is really putting a lot of soul and life into his work. I have a lot of admiration for him.

How to get the perfect tattoo 1. Get artwork of something custom from the $1,000 guy 2. Get it tatted at the $80 place

[@ThePeaceluffer]

That would work if tattoo prices weren't also based on the amount of time needed to do the tattoo. I have a line art tattoo that I should've paid at least 250 euros for and took 4 hours to set. Thankfully the artist had severely underestimated how much time she needed to set it and I only paid 175 euros.

Nope. I don’t think the $80 shop could pull off what that artist was doing. Clearly he is a master at his craft. Just look around his place.

[@thehecticchannel8054]

since that's theft the $80 place would probably refuse to do it, well known artists have very distinct styles and if it's not immediately recognizable it would still be suspicious to get another person's artwork

@@Alucard.T I wonder what kind of job you are looking into. I work in a hospital with a full sleeve. Also, you could always wear a long sleeve dress shirt. Obviously, I am talking about tattoos within reason. I wouldn't recommend getting something silly like a face or neck tattoo. In the end, I honestly wouldn't want a tattoo from your tattoo artist. I would feel uncomfortable having someone question every unnecessary part of personal life for his tattoo.

Letterings are basic on any artist should be no problem, i am not an artist just a guy who loves tattoo.. but its just lettering should be ok. U can go for walk ins artist, pros is cheap can do it right away. Cons. Personal opinion risk for not clean things. And low quality ink. Point is if u just want letterings any artist can do it. Questionsgould be is how much are u willing to pay. If u have good budget go for a good artist he may suggest additional to letterings and make it more good for you or if u sont have enough budget just go for a good shop who is clean u dont want infection or anything

[@sporemaster97]

@@carlosams7980 It's not that he can't do it, it's not his preference. Certain artists only do lettering, it's all about finding the artist who's style lines up with what you want

@@carlosams7980 yeah. lettering is pretty basic. but even though lettering is a form of art, some him and I guess possibly some artists, it isn't.

[@albertw.ottesen2938]

i think its a really cool concept, but that is at very poorly executed tattoo, it has no solid crisp outline so it will fade and bleed in the future, it has strange placement that makes it not very readable, the shadows look unrealistic like something rushed with an airbrush, the color is not vibrant or properly packed and a tattoo of that size should take way more than 4 hours especially in that price range.

Honestly, this episode nearly broke me. A lot of shyt Ben was talking about hit home hard. I myself used to have a huge issue with pain medication. I was taking waaaay more than my prescribed doses & was dating an enabler. That was about 3 1/2Yrs ago, & while I’m still on my pain meds, I no longer crave it. Unfortunately, one of my most precious friends, my knight, didn’t wake up & died in his sleep from (what we suspect) a drug overdose. That was on Oct. 1st; he had just turned 37. His name was Ben & I’ve been trying to figure out a tat idea to honor him. I already have 3 memorial tats & 6 other pieces of art from Paul Wren, Owner of Old Ghost in Melbourne, FL. So yeah, hit me in the feels. Also, phenomenal ink art! I love it!

[@belle-jg7jj]

Showtime123 I agree, he obviously isn’t a true tattoo artist just a egotistical painter that recently picked up the art of tattoo

[@DaHoePatrol]

He was referring to his possible desire of wanting another bear tattoo. As referenced back to on the video Scott, the artist, was reluctant to do a bear tattoo as he wasn’t feeling it. It actually took him a full year to revert his decision on the initial bear idea and was simply saying, “if you want another bear tattoo give me some time on that.”

[@ryanhall826]

I’m watching this 3 days after getting a memorial tattoo for my friend who passed away. Great video, amazing tattoo.

[@pestilenceaf23]

Not worth $1000......not even close. That's a $300-$400 tattoo tops. He's charging that much because he labels himself as an "artist". He didn't want to do your idea of the bear a year ago because he didn't like the idea....and then all he comes up with is "the bear in a spacesuit"? That's not a genius idea. That took all of 30 seconds to come up with....and then he didn't even do a good job of it.

[@shelseamonet4718]

I feel the same way! Like the only reason he's doing it now is because of the recognition, and the whole "I don't put text in my art" thing, like a true artist can overcome any obstacle that's thrown at them, I just think he's a little pretentious, and should be more open to what the client wants

[@Slopok88]

I agree. It is not worth $1000 for 4 hours. The parts outside of the bear lacked precision and detail, it just looked like a pencil sketch. Unless he likes and is willing to pay for pencil sketch...

[@Nayr747]

Yeah all the tattoos they showed were good but not great. There are amazing tattoo artists out there that produce stuff that will blow your mind but this isn't at that level.

I clicked on this video thinking it was about getting an expensive tattoo. I couldn't have been more wrong. I'm bawling so it's hard to try and properly express what I need to say. I'm also in recovery (just shy of 7.5 years) and I have lost more loved ones than I can count to the epidemic. I feel that we (meaning people in recovery) need to talk about it more because recovery is possible! Life isn't sunshine and rainbows for anyone. Please hear me when I say, be there for those you love who need you. You never know when you might just save a life. And it's imperative that we change the conversation from "junkies are dying" to "humans are able to recover and create a beautiful life, not only for themselves, but for everyone around them". 💖

It's very true. Its HUMANS struggling. It aches hurts beyond when people who don't understand or Know the pain and darkness judge and label. People don't just get up and decide heck I'm going to destroy my and others lives. But it feels so hopeless to try to get them to understand.

You have such a bad opioid replacement therapy programme in the us. In the uk the problem is far less significant because it’s very easy to get a prescription for methadone or subutex and any pharmacy can give you methadone whereas in the us you have to go to special methadone clinics which usually have massive queues. Also in the uk if someone has been addicted for ten years they get a pure pharmaceutical heroin (diamorphine) prescription which is probably the most effective and safe treatment option. Rehabs simply don’t work they have a like 95% failure rate and they rip people off charging huge amounts giving them false hope. Medication assisted treatment is the most effective however it’s stigmatised for no real reason. I was addicted to morphine codeine and heroin for two years now I’m on methadone I can live a normal and happy life and I don’t have to go somewhere everyday to pick up only once a week. Soon will he once a month.

i don't want to sound negative or anything but i feel like this tattoo could have been so much better. The concept is very unique and interesting but the artist execution just wasn't that great, especially since he's charging $250 per hour. That's like top artist pay and just pausing the video at 12:20, looking at a fresh tattoo(the colors should be the most vibrant they'll ever be) it already looks dull and some one the lines are shaky and sloppy. for $1000 i feel like you could've went to another artist who doesn't seem so stuck up and gotten a much more better/vibrant tattoo.

[@DubaiReno]

I agree, dont wanna sound like it's a bad tattoo - but there shaky lines, inconsistent blurred shading, and for that price tag, you should be expecting a much better tattoo than what he got. There is great artist out there that charge way cheaper and much better quality.
