[Closed] My new tatt

Looks good to me Al!

Well, it's generated a lot more interest than most other tattoos. I like that fact. It's certainly unique, which makes a change nowadays...

If that's your thigh....

If that’s on your thigh, just above the knee.
Then from anything other than close up, it will look like one of those lacy thigh garters brides wear.

Lol. Never miss a chance to flame, you lot.

...or have the balls to post a picture of their tattoos lol

I like the design, nice and quirky. Not a tattoo person myself, as I’d worry I would get tired of it.
What I don’t understand, is if you now intend to always shave that part of your leg?

OP "right i'll show them"

as I’d worry I would get tired of it.

Based dum tshh !

I think it's pretty good, and I generally only come here for the bants.

You weren't tempted by a panaracer Smoke /Dart combo though? That's old school

I quite like it and will get better with time.

Something a bit different and unique for the OP.

It's a metal watch strap.

What tyres for....

I really don't get it

It's a mountain biking reference.
98% of the forum won't get it.

Regrets? I have a few..

Anyone seen Sagan's latest?

I didn't think Captain Jack Sparrow was that serious?

Awww thanks for the nice thoughts guys.

It pre-dates Smoke/Dart (noob!)

Skinny thigh? Maybe, I'm a medium build, 75kg/6' guy, not much fat around.

Sagan's Joker/Fingerbobs tribute has a freakishly long index finger!

OP, I quite like the tat. A slightly thicker outer outline would help it though.

Your buttock looks quite saggy.

iirc the OP and I have the same (non tyre related) tattoo...

[i]Your buttock looks quite saggy. [/i]

It's my elderly skin. Elasticity is a distant memory.

Is it not a representation of a [url= https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cilice#In_popular_culture ]cilice[/url], like that worn by Silas the albino in the Da Vinci Code?

I thought all cyclists had taught, round, powerful buttocks...like mine.

Pictures?

pictures?

thread of the day!

That's definately an internal bottom bracket

You'll have the Specialized lawyers on your case shortly!
I imagine they'll force you to have it lasered due to copyright.. 😯

Recognised that tread pattern straight away, but I would def consider a bit of shading on that, just so it's a bit more obvious what it actually is.

I owned one myself, but I'm not sure how many other peeps go that far back.

@jimjam: I’m a little disappointed, I expected more calf definition....

There's no legs in that picture

EDIT: I stand corrected

Bob summers...my only other one is stimpy.

Although I do like the 4th cat chainring.

Lemonds "Z" sponsor is nice to po.

Ha! Awesome! 😆

I wish I could huck off a big toe like that!

So it's real?
It looks like a bored meeting doodle. The kind of meeting with grey carpet tiles, a flickering fluorescent tube and a very big spreadsheet.

But like all tattoos all that matters is you think it's awesome.

I once spent and entire day in school colouring in my left arm in with a biro ... Was literally about 6 hours work.

I struggle to remember why I did so badly in any A levels 😆

When it’s cold my arm gets an orginal Onza Porcupine pattern

You are David Mellor and I claim my five pounds?

😆

So I did remember correctly 8)

It looks like alternate upside down fat bloke's wearing straw boaters taking a dump.

Different though.

Oh!

Yeah I’d have gone for a Minion too, I think. Not the yellow ones.

Remind me...post up yours?

Mr Smith and sargey, great that you accept all that matters is how I feel about it...why then expend effort telling the world how shit you think it is?

Like the sound of your own voices?

No one listening in the real world?

Conti-vert pro is the one I remember with the spider webs in the flatter areas.

[b]@Redthunder[/b] - Excellent work. You've won the internet.

[b]@ OP[/b] - I like it!

But if we're talking tatt treads: Farmer John

No way that's a thigh, it's like a wrist, only thinner.

I've just been sick in my mouth.

And similar comments....
I’ve got a tattoo round my ankle. It was (sort of) my own design and because of what it’s based on it wouldn’t look right if every line and bit of shading was perfect. I took the design in and asked for it to be slightly rough as I’d drawn it, and not to be straightened out.
To my mind a tyre print would be the same. Imagine seeing it in mud. It would t be sharp, crisp and perfectly shaded would it?
I recognised it instantly. I used to use those tyres. I like it. 🙂

I like it, not my Tattoo style, but yeh groovey baby.

*still working out how to get a bike related tat somewhere in my collection of black work

I wish I could huck off a big toe like that!

*flashbacks*

Nooooo!

Oh, 'Huck'. As you were...

Cynic-al - your arm needs mowing properly.

OP. You seem pleased with it and that’s all that counts. Not my particular hot beverage, but I do like the naive style, compared to the perfectly straight and shaded version it could be.

That is actually a compliment BTW.

How about a derailleur on your ankle and a shifter on your wrist? In black of course! 😉

well done, i burst out laughing at work and got a telling off.

🙂

Ooh a tat thread, we’ve not had one for ages! 🙂

I must admit I thought it was a forearm, as it’s a very hairy and odd shaped thigh. When all the hair grows back it will hide most of it....thankfully! 😀

For those who think it's my wrist, and or I have a weird thigh, here is my thigh, or more of it at least.

Looks normal to me, but I've been looking at it for 49 years...

How do we know it's yours? That could be anybody's thigh.

If you shaved your leg below the tattoo it would look awesome. But then you would have to walk around in really short shorts all the time for the full garter effect.

I still say it looks fine to me.... That said, this is getting like Tinder now. 😀

Nah, that's Tinder.

[img] [/img]

Lol 😀

😆

Hmmm. That could just be a picture of your slightly knee-like elbow.

I think unless we see it with a foot attached, the jury's out.
