NG Tattoo 2017-05-17 17:57:47


Since I recently turned 18, I can finally get myself some ink and I figured of all things I want on my body for a lifetime, it's Newgrounds. No doubt this place has been the biggest creative influence in my life and a huge reason I'm headed off to college at Pratt Institute this August to study for a career in 2D animation. I couldn't be more grateful for how this community of creators has shaped me as a person and I never want to forget how important Newgrounds has been for me. So, I'm thinking a tattoo is in store.

But as much as I'd love a newgrounds tattoo, the questions "what of" and "where" still arise. I'm thinking something to do with the Tank Man and putting it somewhere on my right arm. Not quite sure yet, so I'm taking suggestions.

Help a brother out with any ideas you got.

Decide to join a Fraternity when you go to school but before applying, get a Tattoo of the Logo of their rival frat.

You are aware I'm looking for a Newgrounds related tattoo specifically, right?

Ayy I hit that milestone last month, congrats.

Although I'm not personally a fan of tattoos, I'd suggest either a small one of either tank man or the tiny "NG" logo.

Actually doing that soon my man, since being 18 means I can finally set up a PayPal and actually have some control over my own bank account. First step is setting everything up though lmao.

Ayy gracias, I figured I'd do something​ small. Not really looking to get tatted up haha, way too indecisive for that. Probably gonna do a small tank man of sorts, maybe just the head?? Idk shit's hard to decide on.

The Tank Man would indeed make an awesome tattoo motive, now that I think about it.

Help a brother out with any ideas you got.

Here's an idea, don't. I actually like tattoos, but don't get a Newgrounds tattoo. Unless your aim is to be a wizard, then getting a Newgrounds tattoo will contribute greatly, especially if you place it on the right spot.

The Tank Man would be cool or you could get a tattoo of your favorite NG character of all time.

But if it's Tank Man, I guess that would cancel out my suggestion then.

For real tho, there's some mad negativity about this post. I get that a lot of you may just use the site as a place to chat when you're bored, but I'm serious when I say this is the place that got me into art and animation. NG ain't just a meme you guys and if you can't see it as anything but another website, maybe you missed the boat for inspiration. I'm literally headed towards a creative career and NG was the first step for me; the first step towards a life I'm passionate to live. So, call me a faggot if you want but at least I can draw a straight line.

/\ Good response. Covers moms, disgusting sex, and insults really well.

The tat?

Tank man, upper shoulder, so you can live with it a while and it can be hidden under clothing.

Just in case you ever decide to apply for a job with a company which has rules against visible ink.

If you like it, get more. But go slow, 'cause getting a tat is about a hundred times cheaper than getting a tat lasered off.

If you know what I mean.

Why so much angst about sexuality and age, little buddy?

Can't you just appreciate the guy wanting a tat and give real advice?

What the fuck is wrong with you?

Why so edgy?

Why do I have so many questions?

i am giving real advice if this kid goes to jail with an angry faic tattoo he might as well tattoo rape bait on his forehead, you think when hes 40 he is really gonna be like wow, glad i got that ngs tattoo at 18...

That's why I said Tank Man. A Tank Man on your shoulder would still be cool when you're forty or fifty. Once your skin starts to sag, you could just call it APC man.

'Course, lotsa guys here probably have some My Little Pony tats lurking around where you could only see 'em in the shower, and oh, my, that's dickbait right there.

"Deliverance" meets "Mr. Rogers."

Oh, my.

i don't think you'll go through with it. you're just excited about being 18 and you love newgrounds. if you wanna show your love of newgrounds, i'd say just buy a shirt for now.

but, if you really want a tattoo you can be proud of, try and think of a tattoo you actually like, and then try making it about newgrounds. if you get tattoos of just random symbols, like an angry face or a little tank, they're just going to feel like stickers on your body, as apposed to an actual work of art. especially since i feel like it's hard to translate a lot of newgrounds' artists cartoony style into tattoos.

you could get something like a pin up of tank girl or a cool illustration of dad. a newgrounds tattoo has honestly been on my mind for a while. i'm planning a sleeve, and i want to have characters from the culture that is newgrounds littered throughout it.

and if that somehow makes me a faggot, than so fucking be it.

crazy? i'm not crazy. i'm a table.
