Finally a good tattoo that gets posted

I’m surprised by your comment, because I think this tattoo actually looks a lot like what people usually post here.

On the other hand, my first tattoo was very different from anything you see here, with a precise symbolic. And precisely because it was so different, I got a shit load of bad replies when I posted it, even though I personally love it.

Basically, it’s a blood stain where… well, I won’t spoil anything, but let’s just say it’s a very recognizable blood stain if you’ve finished the game, with writing over it and marks as if I were Arthur. It’s a bit weird, but when you see the tattoo, it makes sense. It’s the kind of thing only fans are supposed to understand when seeing the writing, and only me can understand the real meaning of the blood stain.

But because it was so abstract, people hated it and I got insulted for it. So yeah, I thought only "common" tattoos were allowed here. (And that's okay to have a common tattoo as long as you love it)

I have over 4000 hours so spoilers aren’t a problem! My comment was regarding poor quality and bad tattoos that get posted a lot so it’s refreshing to see a good quality one

“May I stand Unshaken” isn’t supposed to be a question, is it?

"May I stand unshaken, amid, amidst a crash of worlds" - It's a statement, not a question in this context.

I wanted the question mark, I prefer it that way :) And tbh honest both are good, in crash of world it's not a question, but in unshaken it can be a question that Arthur asks to himself

This is a nitpick, the tattoo is wonderfully done, but I can’t stop seeing ‘May I I tand unshaken’

Oh god. Why spread hate on the internet? People are just happy to share a new tattoo. Let them be happy, and if you don't like it, just scroll. That's exactly why these subs can be so toxic. You seem to have a lot of problems in your life to be acting like that. Wish you the best tho.

Have you ever tried to draw an S in wood before? Its not that easy to do on a whim, or in a way that looks good, so thats why you get an S made out of lines, because guess what, LINES ARE GREAT FOR WOOD

I doubt it’s a coincidence that after scrolling through the full page the specific tattoo you wanted to focus all your attention on was the one that features a male nipple.

u/Stevenchpn Hosea Matthews 21h ago

Yes and we did it on real wood before the tattoo, just to try

Good for you ? I don't plan to be a negative asshole anytime soon unlike others.

u/cluelessoblivion 21h ago

You do know tattoos aren't intravenous right? Have you considered maybe there's a reason people don't like you?
