Well, it certainly is unfortunate that your friend . . . Pie? died at such a young age. But at least this way he’ll always live on in your memories, of which you apparently have several. I know that I won’t soon be forgetting this face.

They’re remaking “Nightmare on Elm Street” AGAIN?!?
I feel terrible asking this, but did he burn to death? Or was he being tarred and feathered and they ran out of feathers so they beat the left side of his head in instead?
*packs for trip to hell*
His facial expression reminds me of a guy who would live in the desert who decorates his home in tin foil to keep the Martians from stealing his thoughts.
I’m so sorry.
*bumps us up to first class*
winning
guys, guys, guys. we’re ALL going to hell and we’re all going at the same pace. so you might as well enjoy the ride. hellward bound!
Well, yeah, now that I’ve been bumped from “handbasket” to “first class!” Thanks. Rauss!
Hey no problem, may as well go in style!
Very Puritanical. I can dig it.
aww… lol, I thought his little smile thing was kind of cute in the actual pic. In the tat however, some of the facial lines and shadows are WAY over done (like around his mouth, they should have left it alone for the most part). Anyways, speaking of going to Hell, I thought the tat looked like an alien that just skinned “Pie” (which i really thought it said at first before I really looked and saw pic) and wore him to go douche around some place
These are clearly before and after shots.
Wasn’t sure if I was laughing harder at the photo or the description, then this comment ended up beating them both. See ya there!
The text makes me think of those Cake Wreck cakes where the decorating instructions get spelled out in frosting.
“So I want it to say ‘In Memory Of…’ and then the pic, and then 81-05. Can you do that?”
“Yeah, sure… memories… pic… 81 05, got it.”
Hahah that’s a pretty good explanation.
*like
At least for Cake Wrecks the damage gets done when you are not present. I would like to think that there would be a lot fewer misunderstandings of the sort if the bakers were decorating in the customer’s presence… say if they were drawing right onto the customer’s skin? With a needle? And the customer awake and consenting? Oh, wait. Jess has a blog/job. Never mind, my logic is obviously flawed.
That’s horrible
The tattoo makes the young man look like he died of progeria.
the “zombie” effect strikes again
Not understanding why these “in memory of” tattoos depict what the deceased probably looks like posthumously. How traumatic to constantly relive the plight of “Pie”, what with the stroke and multiple skull fractures he seems to have suffered…
At least the artist got his teeth right.
Are you kidding? They made it look like the guy had only the top two center incisors.
A shame to have lost a friend and now have to live with this.
Dear tattoo artists everywhere,
Please learn how to use the white ink appropriately.
Thanks,
Really Sick of Seeing Horrifying Eyes & Teeth
Maybe he could peer deep into your soul IRL…
Dear tattoo artists everywhere,
If you can’t do portraits, stop trying.
Sincerely,
Everyone who ever sees wrecks like this one
I know it will tone down some. But nothing will correct a badly proportioned drawing. Squint your eyes, look just at the general shape of the head on the photo. It’s oblong. And now look at the tattoo. It’s round and squatty. No matter how you arrange the features — eyes, nose, mouth — they can never resemble the person’s face in the photo.
I draw a lot, on paper and canvas. But I’d never touch skin because I know I make a lot of errors.
What’s with the deep shading? Ridiculous!
Honestly, had it not been for the picture on the left, I would have thought this was a really bad tattoo of Britney Spears after the hairclipper incident.
Oh My Gosh! That’s so sad, What a shame! What a waste. It’s horrible when that happens. It’s terrible that things like that have to happen,,, And it’s also bad that the young man has died.
I always feel bad for these people.. They had a love pass away, and want to get a tattoo to remember them. They don’t do their research, and usually walk into any ol’ tattoo shop and get whoever is available. Usually its someone who isn’t good at portraits but does it anyway for some cash. This is the result of that..
Great comments. They make me feel a bit evil for laughing about the departed. Oh well.
Guy looks like an alien. Can’t place the movie, but I think they were reptile-people. Maybe this guy is a Reptoid! I salute our reptilian overlord tattoo artists!
Speaking of Aliens – what happened to this poor man’s front plate? It looks like it was pulled off prior to some demonic or alien brainal probe. Perhaps it explains the Zombie stare.
Reptoid.
Without the original picture, I would have thought it was a failed tattoo of John Locke, doing that patented smirk of his.
ya like this.>
STICK. WITH THE NAME. AND THE DATE.
No, can’t even do that because some tattooists don’t know how to spell, as seen by MANY of the tattoos on here.
Pictures before and after the accident that killed him? Why didn’t they use the “before” instead of the “after”?
I dont see PIE…I see the word PIC……like I’d like a tattoo of this pic…and dont forget to put his name and date of birth and date…and the stoned tattoo artist forgot what his name was and thought he said it was PIC
Portrait reminds me of Hellraiser, when the brother comes back from the floorboards and has no skin. Love that movie!
*whimpers*
for sure…
uncle fester?
Lets compare. Here is a video of tattoo guy with a light bulb in his mouth.
It’s Kryten from Red Dwarf!
It might be…..
Unfortunately every shop in my town does portraits and tattoos like this.. look up owensboro, ky haha.. its horrible
At least he didn’t do the arm in the back of his head…
The shading is just so horrible and random – what was this needle-weilding non-artist thinking?
I before E, except after C… I feel the shame.
damn…that tattoo looks like the tucson shooter…..
I can see a resemblance.
Hmmm… The source picture ain’t really the best basis of the tattoo anyway, so they are starting from a bad position.
)
The lack of expertise of the what was this ‘needle-wielding non-artist’ doesn’t help either.
(like the phrase, Canuck. Thanks
The tattoo looks like the wacko who shot all those innocent people in Arizona. I won’t use his name because then it will come up in a web search and people like that get off on notoriety.
oh wow…he does. Didn’t notice that until you pointed it out.
I’ve only ever seen one portrait tattoo that I thought “wow, that’s pretty good,” and it was the Charlie Sheen one from a few days back. Others (like this one) are case-in-point as to why I’ll not be getting a portrait.
Oh, hell, I have nothing positive to say about this. Wow. What a jerk to turn a memorial tattoo into a horror movie! :/ I feel so bad for this person.
He live still man. Watch this >
Pic Pie died six years ago — which means that this wasn’t done in the first wave of grief. The recipient had over 2000 days in which to research and select an artist to ink this memorial. And THIS was the one chosen.
I’m still trying to figure out the bit on the chin. Is that a bandage covering a wound from the penultimate car crash or near-fatal beating?
I see: “in Memnies of / 81 Pic 05″. Anyone else? Well, and a scary undead creature face….
Dead eh… I beg to differ..
The shading is way overdone. I think this tattoo would have been more aesthetically pleasing had the artist just gone with less shading (or even no shading at all for that matter). I mean, I would argue that too little shading is preferable to too much shading in many cases, this being one of them.
He looks like a bald Sheldon Cooper. Underneath it should say “Bazinga”.
I saw that too! It’s like Jim Parsons (the actor who plays Sheldon) playing a laughing, smirking, insane, maniacal, demon possessed, psycho-killer. And that’s what someone has stuck on their skin.
he looks close, but…
Here he is with Ricky Gervais.:
I saw this also fond this video of him at an audition.>
Tricksy Hobbitses…
My precious…..
