Star tattoos I like

I don’t know if I actually do like this next tattoo or not. Part of me thinks it’s sexy (the bottom half of me I suppose) — and really, could any tattoo ruin that? — but part of me thinks it looks like she’s farting stars. I’m sorry, maybe I’m immature, but that’s what comes to mind… This was inked by James Reed at Marked For Life in Warren, MI.

Before I go — these updates came late today — let me give you three more quick tattoos. On the left are some stars within stars (maybe it’s inspired by 2001, ha, sorry, nerd joke) on Will. The middle one (the Scooby Doo tattoo) is by Ryan Zachary in Portland, OR. And finally, on the right, is a star piece (c/o IAM:London.Midnight) by Ben at Slave to the Needle in Seattle.

    I love how beautifully bold that last piece is. The size makes an ordinary design unforgetable.

    I really like the last one, it looks much nicer than the tiny random stars everyone has these days.

    definitely…it’s a starred fart…i think that if the tattoo would have been settled maybe following a bit more the line of her butt would look nicer…just an opinion…

    I think the star fart is pretty hot. And I also think it’s great that someone who looks at thousands of pictures a day thinks my work is good enough to post. Much appreciated!

    I think the stars do look like farts in that first one. But is farting stars really bad? It has to be better than farting…well.. farts. Is that kind of like farting roses? OOH tattoo idea!

    hahahah first thing on my mind when i saw the first pic: she’s farting stars!

    oh fuck… i’m totally immature! hahah

    Well, it looks like shes leaning a big more on the right leg then the other. Maybe it’d look better if she was standing up straight and the camera was centered instead of coming from the right. Position and camera angle probably distorts it so it doesn’t look to follow the curvature of her butt.

    The last one is hot Hot HOT!

    Maybe something is going UP her butt and left a trail of stars???

    I like Randy’s idea
