Heart Hands Tattoo

These tattoos are from the wearer of the white ink facial tattoo I posted recently.

    so innovative! I hope the ink doesn’t disappear like most palm tattoos do (correct me if I’m wrong). How old is this?

    yah, 5kem5, stewart robson done your palms huh. sweet.
    its all about technique. palm tattoos CAN stay.

    check out thomas hoopers tattoo gallery. the palms he’s done have all healed with 90% of the linework intact at the VERY least.

    It would be cool if he put that around his penis and testes. kinda like a frame.

    I like this guy. His whole aesthetic with the hands and facial ink kind of lends him a sort of Harlequin/carnival-ish feel I think… does anyone else get that?

    He could also use that tattoo to make a face with his hand where you draw eyeballs on the knuckle of your index finger and draw lips around the thumb and index finger. It’s hard to explain, but you all know what I’m talking about.

    YES!

    I was going to do something similar to this, actually.. just on the other sides of my hands. I got something else instead, though.

    Heart hands are pretty much the best thing ever.

  18. SnaiLuv Avatar

    I think there’s definitely something orifice-esque about the whole thing.

    Sorry – I filed these in the heart section on BMEink.com, not the hand section, so here’s the “non-heart” version for anyone who wanted to see it:
