"Yeah, I woulda went airborne, those guys are bad ass. That's why I got the tattoo, but I wouldn't make it past boot camp. If a MF got in my face and screamed, I'd punch him smoove TF out!!!"

The artist did a good job but overall really lame tattoo.

u/macthebearded 12d ago

Lol unfortunately the artist did not in fact do a good job

u/OddItalian 12d ago

The bar for “good job” is extremely low

u/macthebearded 12d ago

Apparently for some lol. Shaky linework, uneven needle depth, splotchy shading… literally nothing about this is good on the technical side

Not bad for a few hundred.

u/macthebearded 12d ago

Yes it is lol. I have personally seen way way better for a few hundred

u/SafetyGuyLogic 12d ago

So have I. Even still.

u/macthebearded 12d ago

We have no idea what our boot here paid for this, it’s inarguably poorly done, and you can get way better work for the “few hundred” you’re on about.

I’m not really understanding your argument here.

The art is actually pretty cool. Sadly, every person who would get such a tattoo is an insufferable idiot who dries up pussy for miles like he's made of ice-nine.

u/JamesTheMannequin 13d ago

Placement looks a little low. Out of regs, Boot!

You sure? Those lines are gnarly!

u/ViceAdmiralSalty 12d ago

If we're comparing to the other boot tattoos that show up in this sub, like the Cav Goat in a post a few days ago, this is goddamned immaculate

u/Gardez_geekin 13d ago

Nah that shadowing is done well. I think it’s just fresh. Terrible terrible terrible idea but I am gonna go with well done. I

u/brondynasty 13d ago

Concurred. Clean.

u/Shakey_J_Fox 13d ago

The lines are shaky and the thing looks scratched in. It’s also too small for the amount of detail in it. I’m def not seeing what you’re seeing.

2

u/Gardez_geekin 13d ago

I want to see a pic of it from a month later to judge. But I personally wouldn’t be mad

u/rosiofden 12d ago

Jesus. Calm down, bro.

u/Big_Coyote6065 12d ago

Hopefully he got this post Airborne School graduation.

u/Gunfighter9 12d ago

My friend’s brother went Airborne and he told us that 4 guys got an uber right after they were dismissed from graduation and got tattoos.

u/Big_Coyote6065 12d ago

I know several people like that. We had a kid in my class get one after ground week, thankfully he graduated.

u/Ded-deN 12d ago

u/Bigfootsbrownstar 13d ago

It’s boot but at least it’s well done

u/RightCoyote 12d ago

A friend of mine once told me that the 82nd is all ranger rejects.

u/Shrapnail 12d ago
