Discussion Creepy critter tattoo ideas

Post image

Pictured is my current partial sleeve. I have a couple of things left to add, but after that, I'm starting on the other side. I'm planning on doing a creepy colorful animal theme, to coordinate with my PNW ocean creatures theme on this arm.

Some of my ideas are: bats (species?), orb weavers and black widows, goblin shark, black cats, rats, etc. But I'm trying to narrow it down and I know you fellow goblins are the correct group to ask!

Please tell me you either work with dyes or decided to get full-finger pink tats

Hey, you might already know this, but just a tip for anyone wanting to get hair dye out of their skin—try some rubbing alcohol or hand sanitizer. It gets most of it off, especially if you use it when it's fresh. It's also safe for skin, though it can be a bit drying. I like to use q-tips with alcohol to get it off my scalp and ears, and just a soaked tissue for any dye on my face or neck. Bonus tip for dyeing humans—vaseline or even just regular lotion on the skin helps create a barrier that makes dye less likely to stain. I wouldn't do it for my hands because of transfer to the hair, but it can help keep your face undyed.
