Ugliest Tattoos: Bad, Awful & Horrible tattoos

Hey Dude, You Got a Little De Niro on Your Cheek There [hands you a napkin]

Am I Funny to You?

Submitted by: Justin

I’ll admit, this is a pretty awesomely done tattoo, because my eye is having trouble not seeing the black part as a really deep cavern carved into your face. And who doesn’t want a really deep cavern carved into his face? I mean, besides EVERYONE.

    All I can think of are those poor souls you see sometimes, the ones with the parasitic twins attached to their skulls or faces …

    • Cleopatra says:

      Hey Anna, do you think that’s painted on rather than tattooed? I think it might be.

      • double-oh-six says:

        i try to be understanding, but parasitic twins… >shudder< :(

        & he's got other facial tattoos…. so i'm gonna go with "please, dear god, let that be paint!"

        & btw, where is Anna when you need her? :)

        • Anna Rexia says:

          It’s nice to feel needed ♥

          The work is too impeccably done to be airbrush, I think. I don’t think anyone could sit through something like that and not sweat. Plus, as has been pointed out, he has other facial work already. The reflection in DeNiro’s eyes is a bit intense at this point, but it should be when it’s this fresh, and will tone down, as will the black, once the tattoo has fully healed.

          I’m puzzled as to why they chose that tattoo for that spot, however. I mean, shit, it’s Robert DeNiro, nestled within tribal work. The portrait is absolutely fantastic work. The artist even incorporated DeNiro’s forehead wrinkles with the guy’s eye lines. Now that’s skill. You can even see imperfections in DeNiro’s skin.

          The thing is, it just doesn’t fit with the other work.

      • Lucky_Cat says:

        I know you didn’t ask me, but I am going to answer anyway. It’s puffy and red at the top and a few places around DeNiro’s face- those are signs that it’s a pretty fresh tattoo.

        It’s good except for his left eye. There is some white on the eyelid that makes it look like that eye is REALLY open.

        • Cleopatra says:

          I’m looking – and yep, I see. :-( That does look a bit puffy and red for paint … unless maybe he’s allergic to it?

          Oh well, it’s his face, to do with what he wants. I wonder if DeNiro could sue for unauthorized use of his likeness?

    • MLT says:

      I wouldn’t mind Robert DeNiro being my parasitic twin… I just wouldn’t want him hanging off my face. I do hope this is paint, but I have a feeling it isn’t.

    • Candi says:

      I had the uncanny image of the school nurse from South Park stuck in my head.

  2. spacemonkeymafia says:

    As much as I hate facial tattoos on principle, I’m actually ok with this one. He already has stuff coming up his neck onto his face, so what’s a bit more? And I like that it is well done and NOT the usual gang-related bs.

    (I must be getting numb from spending too much time here)

    And, Cleo, I certainly don’t have the excellent eye/skill that Anna does for figuring these things out, but yeah, it does kinda look more painted than permanent. *shrug*

  3. MLT says:

    It’s a nicely done likeness of DeNiro… Just looks really creepy on the dude’s face. Seriously, when this dude is 80 and wrinkled, Mr. DeNiro is gonna look like hell…

  4. This is definitely a real tattoo. His skin texture wouldn’t be so obvious if it were paint. Besides, it looks a little swollen, like it’s fresh.

    I like it, although it’s going to look like DeNiro got in a bar fight every time the guy gets a zit.

  5. Jam says:

    The ghost of DeNiros’ past looks very sad. I wonder if he is reflecting on the choice to take a role in the Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle?

  6. tyberius says:

    Well I guess we can be thankful that it’s De Niro at least. I mean, if someone got it into their head to do this with a Twilight character…
    *douses himself with mind bleach*

  7. decibella says:

    ….and what happens to DeNiro when this guys changes his facial expression, like laughing?

  8. Cinsavant? says:

    i think deniro’s mouth looks a little……special. just my opinion

  9. Jimbo says:

    If he grows a beard, Roberts eyes will be peering over the top. Pretty cool!

  10. Felix says:

    Freaks me out! It’s an excellent portrait tattoo… and that makes it creeeeepier!

  11. pharmer says:

    i have Rockwell’s Somebody’s watching me going through my head right now

  12. i point out the obvious. says:

    awesome tattoo of the dad from all those ‘falker’ movies.

  13. Kei Dub says:

    Ah, nothing quite says “Never hold a steady job” like facial tattoos.

    Tho as far as face tats go, thats pretty cool.

  14. Spiderguise says:

    Nothing like a man’s ugly face tattooed on your ugly face. Avant garde?

  15. Gael says:

    How much do you have to hate your self to cover even a part of your own face with someone else’s?

    Someone has Issues.

  16. Omi-san says:

    Why is DeNiro’s face covered with pimples/warts? I don’t know if those are on the guy’s skin or part of the tattoo, but it looks terrible.

    • thatguy2 says:

      I agree. It looks like DeNiro is melting.
      I am I the only one that thinks that tat is going to .open it’s mouth and start talking?
      “I’m talking to you, give me a bite of that cheeseburger!”

  17. PCM2 says:

    Maybe it’s a cover up? Other people have pointed out the redness, puffiness, etc. — maybe he had this done to hide a burn or other disfigurement?

  18. Dy says:

    Two sets of lips, two eyes, two noses, on one face. The creepy factor is high with this one.

  19. LL says:

    It is cool during… one minute. Try having that shit on your face 24/7.

  20. J says:

    What a stupid thing to do to yourself.

  21. LoatheBoy says:

    That’s not ugly. It’s uneccessary, awfully dumb and an impressive crutch for a non-existing ego. But definitely not ugly.

  22. Nerkls says:

    I’m not sure it’s DeNiro…looks more like Edward James Olmos to me which would also explain the pimple/acne scar look to the cheek area

  23. Hey It’s Jody, the one actually wearing the DeNiro on his Face! Yes its real and Steve did an amazing job!! Its from the movie Goodfellas, theres Joe Pesci and Ray Liotta Still to come, watch for that too on the rest of my face.

    • KillEmDirty says:

      So lemme get this straight…you are a boy…named Jody. Fail #1
      You put this picture on here yourself…on a website called ugliest tattoos…and now you are mad and spitting ego because people think it’s stupid? Fail #2
      Calling people out online has got to be the lamest thing ever, you aren’t tough. Fail #3

      It’s a fairly decent tatto I guess, but the placement is just ridiculous.

    • Fred says:

      Your ‘very successful tattoo studio” funded by the CSC?

  24. [...] question, what possibly drives the owner of that tat to do it…however..Regards. (sad to see it on http://ugliesttattoos.failblog.org/2010/12/29/funny-tattoos-goodfellas-face/) BLOGGER [...]

  25. hurrahforsexandviolence says:

    This is so good. The detail is excellent. Can’t wait to see the finished product. F*** the haters.

  26. chelseeeyyyy says:

    I just got a tattoo done by him, and yes it is real its not painted on. up close and in person it looks really good.

  27. Tim R11 says:

    That is amazing!!! One of the best portraits I have ever seen. Obviously it is not everyone’s cup of tea but as you said, F the haters. De Niro is my all time favorite actor and Goodfellas is my all time Fave movie. One of the coolest tattoo’s I’ve ever seen.
