It somehow manages to be even campier than the original Godzilla. Bravo.

Yeah! More crap! Keep it coming! THIS is what I love about this site! This and the snappy comments. This obviously took a long time to do, it’s quite large. And yet, it really makes no sense. Well, Godzilla fighting the squid kind of does, but what are those round things on chains supposed to be? Maces?
I think that it could look really good once completed, I dont really know why you would just have the outline photographed but whatevs. I think those are actually those submarine mines that you find underwater taking the submarine and the aquatic life into account. I dont know I may be giving this person too much credit!
I suppose that when you’re doing a tattoo like this it makes sense to want to take photos of it in progress. Right now it’s pretty bland, though.
no you are correct this is my tattoo and the reason it’s not finished is cause I went on deployment and went I got back to the US the tattoo artist baled on me.
You should call him back after he gets all the hay put up.
I think they’re underwater mines.
I was on a Mine sweeper in the Navy and they represent the number of real mines I took part in taking out in the US so yeah…
Ok this is my tattoo and I was in the Navy for 4 years and I was stationed on a minesweeper seen in godzillas hand. And the mines around it are the mines I took place in blowing up so Aircraft carriers could get to there destonations. The random sea life is thinging I have actually seen out in the ocean. And as for godzilla it was my dads fav. movie that I grew up watching with him and after he pasted away I got this to remmber him in kinda a funny way. It’s is not finished because I was deployed over seas and on my return the tattoo artist had quit the shop I got this much done at. So I have found another artist and this will be finished very soon and it looks better in person than in this picture anyway.
I’m baffled by the “maces” too. If you look at the bottom of the picture, they might be supposed to be at the bottom of the ocean, so maybe they’re mines. The squid is using one as a mace.
THIS, this is the stuff, JackNick! Set ‘em up and keep ‘em coming.
They’re supposed to be “maces”? I thought they’d be such large balls used to demolish buildings… or perhaps kinky mirrorballs.
Perhaps Mothra could be added here to make it cooler.
I am seeing the floating mines from WWII. See the one on the top exploding.
Ok, that’s a better guess than mine.
Funny story about that… My grandpa was a navigator on a bomber in WWII and he used to go on scotch runs for the officers through those. One time he had a really nervous pilot who he had to straighten out for repeatedly pulling up and out-out of fear, which of course could have Ben the end for all of them. Anyway can’t see those things without thinkin’ of that story!
FOR ALL THE REGULARS:
Here’s your challenge. I’m sitting here looking at FreeForums, and I’ll start one up myself if anybody gives me a good name for it. (And if you don’t mind me being rather an absentee landlord.)
This would NOT be intended to replace UT, or to be restricted to UT people, or even to be about tattoos, but just to provide another place for some witty and weird folks to hang out.
Can’t think of a name, but it is a great idea! Think we can get Rauss, and DTMB out there? As well as any others who left?
I heard DTMB got kicked off. Don’t know why and that has not been confirmed. I would like to know what WILL get you banned, so I know what not to do.
If DTMB is gone, this place is so over.
He was a pompous jackass, but he was *our* pompous jackass.
Oh wow. Maybe it was one rewritten song too many for the Cheezefolk?
They started one last night; there are a few familiar names there already.
YES COME
THANK YOU for posting this, it saved my sleep tonight.
Yes thank you, I just signed up too!
I just signed up.
Whoo! I’m in. And now I don’t have to make one of my own.
On closer inspection, that blue thing is a stingray. Hard to see because it’s in the dark. THAT at least, appears to be well done, as is the squid. It stops making sense when you get to GODZILLA!!!
Nice eye on the stingray!! I think there’s a water line and he’s waist deep, it has potential, but I think it also (in its current state) belongs here.
Wootwoot JackNick!
Thank you, good sir
I know I shouldn’t, but I kind of like this. It’s craptastic but, the outlines at least, are pretty well done.
Could turn into something good!
maybe…
NOTE FROM MANAGEMENT: Catbutt was removed due to superoldness. Keep calm and carry on.
monkeybutt gets to stay…
This is UT material at its finest! Even my coworkers stopped for a moment to stare at this mess. It’s so random and poorly drawn it’s unbelievable.
Nick, you just scored another point!
This is an awful photo, but I don’t find this one poorly drawn at all. The objects all have good proportion to one another, with each object given ample space to develop. I think it’s as Canaduck said above, a work-in-progress. Outlines now, except for the ray.
Look again at the entire nautical theme. On the right, the ray, the squid, the huge jellyfish. Then the mines as a repeated motif. Huge Godzilla, stands on the ocean floor, grounding the drawing into a clear context. Little wisps of seaweed. The tiny starfish near Godzilla’s huge foot is a good visual contrast. The sea water will somehow be suggested behind, tying all together.
This can end up a really good backpiece if the colors chosen and shading find harmony among themselves.
It’s pretty bad. It looks like something cobbled together from clip art. The individual items are well drawn, but they don’t come together into anything coherent. Why is Godzilla balancing a ship like a waiter with a tray? Why is the squid just hanging there motionless? The parts don’t form a whole.
When your first thought is “what the hell?”, that’s generally a sign of poor design.
Ok, but I’m trying to be positive Robbie.
My first impression was random shït but then I looked as realized there’s a plan. Nothing I’d want on my back but it could end up as lovely as Snow White. (?)
This is what we come to see. Why is the squid red? Is that a motion line cutting it in half? What are those big round things with the spikes? Why would you want a notebook doodle from science class ALL OVER your back?
I like thinking about things.
Humbolt squid. Vicious bastards.
The upper spikey-thing-on-a-chain strongly reminds me of the chain dog (“Struppi” in the german version) from The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening. I can even hear his “barkbark”-sound in my head now..oh, fond memories. I didn’t remember the Moblins hitting each other with ships, though.
Craptastic!!!

The original “Godzilla” wasn’t very campy. You’re thinking of the later crap classics such as “Godzilla vs. the Smog Monster.” But comparing this tattoo even to that movie is too much of a compliment. :/
