How Tattoo Inspiration Should Be Done

Apr 09, 2020
Hey guys, how are we doing very well in today's video? I'm going to make a video about reference photos or referencing other people's artwork or

tattoo

s. I've

done

a series of videos a little like this one, where I featured some of your guys' reference photos and then how your

tattoo

s turned out, which was awesome. I think I made two videos about it and then left it there for a while, but if you remember, a couple of weeks ago I uploaded a video. talking about my pinup pizza tattoo that I got almost two years ago from a tattoo artist called danny quapo danny quapo is a really amazing traditional tattoo artist here in England and yes unfortunately a tattoo artist in America copied my tattoo well it was almost a copy over there.
how tattoo inspiration should be done
It was like one or two elements changed within the copied tattoo and it was so identical. I got some comments from people saying, well, it's changed, so it's like it was

inspiration

and no, in my opinion, that was beyond

inspiration

, it was just so close. Some of you started designing your own pin-up pizza as artwork or even tattoos. I'm not sure what they're going to do with these but I don't care because they all look so different it's all good but yeah a couple started off kind of slowly creeping into my tagged photos on Instagram and then a couple of people were posting in my group on Facebook and then some people were messaging me like uh on Instagram and you know, tagging me in their Instagram stories and I was like, oh my gosh, okay. so there have been quite a few here, this is amazing.

More Interesting Facts About,

how tattoo inspiration should be done...

Maybe I can turn this into a video, so I put a post in my Facebook group saying, "Hey, if you've designed a pizza model, can you show them here in this type of similar post?" It's easier for me to deal with and I ask for people's Instagrams and stuff, like I want to give credit to the people who are doing this and then a lot more started coming in and I was like, "Oh my God, I have to make a video about this because you guys have spent a lot of time doing this so I thought it would be a good video to show you what inspiration really is and then we'll see my copy of the pinup pizza tattoo and we can see that it's just not inspiration okay not 100. copy definitely not inspiration we can't use the word inspiration when it comes to that tattoo copying situation we just can't we don't so let's go through these um I'll probably go through them pretty quickly because I have a lot of them and I don't want to exclude nobody okay yeah the first one I saw I guess I'm not sure she does it really well she's from Georgia and she did this pizza pinup tattoo hello cool obviously and I think she liked it about me a little, I'm just looking at it, yeah, there are my tattoos there, okay, I didn't even realize that for the first time, that's amazing, yeah, she has my back tattooed, now I wish I had that sacred figure, that would be incredible. um, but yeah, so she has exactly the same type of pizza, it's a little bit different in some places, um, but again, that's what getting inspired is, you can take elements of it, but not everything, you know, she made the little crown because I said.
how tattoo inspiration should be done
She

should

make a little plot, which is really amazing, but yeah, this is an inspiration. She took my tattoo, she took a few elements here and there and then, like, she was very different compared to mine, you know? But you still have the same elements as they are anyway. this is from hoshi underlined q underlined probably says that wrong so with this the same elements that are from my tattoo are the blue tattoos like the color of my one's tattoos um the hairstyle is somewhat similar but they didn't really change the colors of anyway there's the little crown, which is awesome, the pizza is kinda similar, also the shoes are completely different and the outfit is kinda similar, they're also more like a booty short, my pinup pizza has like um bikini briefs, kind of like um, but yeah.

Again, if you put them next to each other in a completely different way, you can see where the elements were taken, but this is inspiration, not a copy, okay, this one is from Phoebe and it has a very classic feel, like from the years 50, so what's different here is me. I'm going to say that the hairstyle is different, it's still wavy but you know, it's different, uh, the body position is also very different, it's very different, the lady is sitting, there are no tattoos here, there are no shoes here, the outfit is completely different. the face is also very different the pizza is also very different again you can see it was inspired by my tattoo but it's me who is different, so different um and I love this this is so oh it's just cute I'm getting vibes like from the years 50 this is it okay this is from rachel and she has designed it like i don't know this is just great oh i'm reading your comment and you said i decided i can't draw women or legs so i drew Danny Fenton in ghost form.
She will be floating pizza over his hand, but I'm having some difficulty figuring out the hands and arms. I think he did a very good job. This is really good. I love it, but again we can. I see very similar differences like this one is miles away from mine, but again you have the pizza there, that's it again, inspiration like this one is miles away, okay, this one is really great and it's from Daniella and if we investigate here, okay, this is great, so I have a little crown again, which I love. The pizza has the same type of ingredients.
It has the same type of bark. The outfit is completely different. This pin up has stockings in her hair. It's completely different. It's like a shorter version of what my pinup pizza has the face is completely different the position is completely different like this we're not even halfway through the video and I'm already saying this is how we do it this is how we get inspired guys this is like There are tattoo artists out there who love to copy other people's artwork, what are you doing, what are you doing? Dude, like there are people here that like to draw as a hobby or whatever and they're ripping it apart like this one's really cute. and I have to put this there because I effort, you know, this is from Darby and he just drew like a pizza with a face.
I thought this is too cute not to appear here like he put in the time for it, I don't know. I just had to feature this because it's a cheesy pizza and we can't go wrong with a cheesy pizza. We love cheesy pizza in this house and this one is really amazing from Hazel. She said there's not that much real art and I ran out of digital and I couldn't figure out how to fix it without Google so here she is and she's amazing, just amazing, I love it. Okay, this one I'm going to butcher your name.
I'm so sorry, uh, Lisette Lizette. Sorry if I'm butchering that. Like I'm sorry, she was like, I mean, I clearly can't draw very well or even maintain proportions, but hey, it conveys the concept, I mean, better than I could do, I think this is really cute, so no. Look down on yourself, but what we have here is fine, so what's different? I mean, everything is different here, so we have a pizza box here as an additional item that hides the girl's butt. I love that it's quite modest, it's like a modesty pin-up tattoo because pin. Profile tattoos are classically quite exposed, you know, they're quite sexy and there are quite a few people who feel that it's like sexualizing women or whatever to create this kind of image on you, which is fair enough, I can see that point. , mine was It has nothing to do with that, I just like pizza and I thought it's a good way to express my love for pizza honestly, but I like that this is a pretty modest pin-up tattoo and so , she's wearing bikini bottoms, it's something like that.
It gives me '90s vibes, so you know, like clueless and stuff like that, where you know everyone was always on their home phone in the '90s. I'm a '90s kid. I grew up in this kind of era and it was more or less like that. thing where you would like to lie on your bed or on the floor and talk to your friends for hours on the home phone. I'm getting this kind of vibe, it's so adorable, uh, again, yeah, there are so many different elements here, but it still gets the same message you know you still have the pizza girl but it's completely different okay, this is what I'm so sorry I'm going to cut this name also I think eel eel I'm getting strong Amy Winehouse vibes with this, I'm not sure if that's the case, but that's how I'm interpreting it again, completely different from mine, so the tattoo has tattoos or the design has tattoos, there are boots there, she wears them like a bra, she still holds the pizza completely different pizza than mine, but again we have the same elements as mine, but it's completely different, okay, this one is from Jordan and she said I certainly tried and I don't know why people put themselves down this is so much better than Honestly I could do it so I can relate to this this is me trying to seduce my boyfriend honestly come on this It's iconic, but yeah, the difference is here, the design has tattoos again, but they're completely different than mine or whatever.
You, this even has a tattoo that says pizza. Unbelievable, the pizza is different, the position is completely different, the hairstyle is different, the face is different, everything is different again. If you put this against my tattoo, you wouldn't even be able to tell. it's a copy no way it's not at all okay this is from oh my god i'm probably going to butcher this one too i'm so sorry uh my nilbo my neo brother i'm so sorry she said first try with a pinup girl on this is so cute oh my gosh this is so adorable so there are a lot of differences here again obviously the girl is holding the pizza in her hand but she is sitting on a stack of pizza boxes.
This is a really cool creative idea, oh my gosh, I'm just I just realized this, but the design has pizza tattoos again, completely different from mine, the hair is a little bit similar, it's like it's not even close, but she has that kind of long flowing hair and it's quite vintage in some ways, uh, but again it's not comparable, it's completely different to mine, inspiration yes, so this one is from Christine and she's

done

two, which it's really cool and they're both very different from each other, so again, you guys are knocking this out of the park.
You're so creative I'm honestly shocked, so the first one here is again. I'm getting these '50s vibes, maybe even '40s vibes, you know, oh my gosh, a long time ago, back when people wore similar dresses. like in the sea and stuff what it was it was, I don't know what it was but like before, like swimsuits and stuff like that, people wore literal dresses in the sea, anyway I'm getting that kind of vibe, um, so there's something similar there's something similar I can't say that word similarities oh my god what's going on similar some of the things that are similar the design has blue ink tattoos the hair is something similar not really but it's kind of wavy in the shape in that he is sitting on the

should

ers the face is almost like he doesn't look much like mine like he has blue eyeshadow a little bit of blush but the eyes are completely different the position of this pizza pin up is also completely different to mine and it's It's so cute, I really love this outfit and here's Christine's other one, so with this one, the pin up is relaxing lying on the floor like, oh my gosh, yeah, here I am with my pizza-loving life, like it's relatable. uh the outfit is completely different with this I love that outfit awesome fashion hello the tattoos in this design are also green which is really cool I mean I love that the same person designed the same type design if that makes sense. the same but very different, as if one were to say why can't tattoo artists do this.
You know, why are we here copying other people's tattoos when you know Christine has done the same kind of thing, but they look so different? It's not attractive, I mean, for me, being creatively inept is hard for me, I can't draw, I could never do this, but for creative people like you, artists and tattoo artists, surely this is easy for you, right? No, i do not do it. Anyway, I know this one is from Maude and she said that because of this I just found out how much I love drawing small tattoos. Oh, they are so cute, and she has tattoos with blue ink on her design and she has made a modest pizza. the pizza is held on her butt, which I love so much, I love it so much, um, the hair is quite old, this reminds me of a really fancy dish, I don't know what they are called, but there is a certain type of dish that is white and then it has blue designs, it gives me that kind of vibes, but it's really edgy, really cool, I would love a plate like this, I would probably put it on my wall, you know, you can get them. things where you can hang plates on the wall my grandma used to do that which was weird ok next one is from adron I'm probably saying that wrong too I'm so sorry adrian so what we have here is a pizza. pinup tattoo.
I'm also getting 1950's vibes from this and she isLike playing on that 1950s housewife stereotype, but instead of hanging clothes, she's hanging pizza, which is such a cool twist on the 1950s era. The tattoos and the way she was life back then I also love the outfit so we have high waisted shorts and then an orange blouse and then the earrings match the orange blouse too which is a cool little touch like little details like I love them so much the things that look like thiscompared to mine, this one also has the misty blue background, uh, spider web tattoo on the elbow, that's it, that's it, obviously, this is not comparable to mine at all, it's completely different, this one it's a completely different design and I just it's so creative, I love it, the next one we have here is from Ellen and she's done something completely different here and she's done a portrait, um, but you still have the same kind of elements in there, you have the pizza there, uh, you.
I have the hazy blue background, but other than that, it's really very different, but you still have that pizza pin-up kind of vibe. I love the headscarf on this one. I love the 50s or maybe 40s hairstyle. I love the swallow on the neck. Plus, you also know, throwback to really old traditional style tattoos, like look at this and how amazing and different it is from mine. Why do we have people here copying this one. It's from Kylie. She said: Yes, I did. It's not a drawer, but this is the best. I'm going to interpret this as a person wearing a pizza dress, right, that's a great idea, I like it, I love it, thank you, this one is from Chrissa and she said she's not good at making curry, but here it is. my sketch is okay so what we have here is a pin-up tattoo and she has a pizza on her head and then she tries to lick it or taste it or bite it just using her tongue so creatively to I can come up with an idea like that , so looking at this I can't find anything that is like what was taken from my tattoo, if that makes any sense, none of the tattoos are the same, the hairstyle is not the same, uh, the shoes are not the same. the same thing so it's cool not to say that people who have taken things from my tattoo are wrong or bad or something like that no that's how you get inspired obviously but yeah I think this is very different and I just want to know how you came up with this.
Artistic brains are amazing to me. This is from Jess and I'm getting those 90s vibes again. You know, when someone is lying on the floor. They're talking on the phone and they're just relaxing or maybe reading a magazine, but we have a girl down here who's just eating pizza and she's like, why not? and she's in lingerie and I love this so this one is kind of blue too. The tattoos in this work also Jess said that what she has in her hair is garlic bread. Hey, who doesn't order pizza and then get sides? She added the sides to this design, which again is a very creative input for everyone. that we've seen is so different and the next one we're going to see is from victoria and we have this is so cool it reminds me again of a sign from the 50s so if you think about um like retro cafes or restaurants in America and they have advertising or whatever.
This has given me that kind of vibe. It seems to me like something you would see in an ad that you know advertises as the best pizza in town. I think this is cool, so this design also has tattoos, uh, the outfit is completely different, the hairstyle is a little bit similar to mine, not really, but it has that kind of weave. We have the same ingredients as my pizza because I have the mushrooms, the pepperoni and the peas, but this is a cheesy and drippy pizza. I love that the way the pinup is sitting or positioned is completely different than mine.
The next one is from Skye and she has drawn a naked lady. unfortunately because this is youtube and youtube is a little strict with this kind of thing I'm going to have to put little love hearts on top of uh the titty and the bush I don't know if drawing is seen as something bad on youtube but I don't want to risk it because, Can you imagine if this video is deleted and then no one can see your artwork? So anyway I'm putting little hearts on little things, so what we have here is a lady with beautiful dyed hair, very, very long, I'm getting like a mermaid vibe, other than she's not really a mermaid because she has legs, but anyway, um, and she's like an awakening, you know, she just woke up from whatever planet she's from and she just had this pizza in her hand like she's holy, this is the best thing that's ever happened to me. past in life, you know, the next one I have here is from lalumby leland b um, I saw this on Instagram again, this is a naked one on top, so Unfortunately, I'm going to have to put love hearts on that area because we freed the nipple, honestly can we get there?
Can we go through the nipple like it's not that deep but this is youtube anyway this is again so creative so we have a fix here she has the most amazing shoes they look really shiny I'm getting like dorothy from wizard of oz vibes from this um but with a heel the stockings are like a fishnet no, they're not fishnet, they're kind of criss-cross some of them, she has a pizza as an accessory for her face. She just, you know, makes a face for a pizza, why don't we all have the need to cover ourselves with pizza?
Sometimes, right? Again, we are completely different from mine, really creative. said this time I am contributing again with a real pin-up and we also have another lady here dressed like a pizza costume but she is there at all times it is not just the face it is the same at all times and she is also holding . a slice of pizza and she's like oh my phone is in the way she's also like a piece sign which again is actually very creative and this is quite, I like this, it's quite comical in a way like with the pizza costume, um, but it's also got that 50s pinup kind of vibe.
Also, this one is Myra's and she's done something completely different. Also, oh my gosh, that hot sauce on the bottom is kind of like little details, which are so amazing, again, we have a topless situation, so, again, that's it. Why are the love hearts there? It's not part of the design and I also like modesty pizza. You know, about the regions there. The baby-making regions. I love them. It's cool, it's quite classy and I don't feel like it's sexualized in any way. By the way, none of this has been sexualizing in my opinion, I think it's all about the love of pizza, to be honest I don't know, maybe it's just because I love pizza so much, that's why I love this one, this one is of Riley and this one.
It's very creative, so I really like space things. I also have an alien tattoo, so it speaks to me on many levels. We have a pizza planet in the background. Why doesn't it have to exist in real life? This pin. -up it's just that you know, on her spaceship, oh well, her pizza ship with her little glass hull there and her outfit is pretty futuristic. I'm also getting Mars Attack vibes from this, I don't know if any of you have I ever watched the movie Mars Attack, but this is the kind of vibe I get, but mixed with some pizza, you know, this It's completely different from mine.
We see the pattern here. The next one is from Miranda and she has done it. Hi curvy babe who lives for it and those curves and a huge slice of pizza which I love here in the UK we don't get huge slices of pizza there just aren't any but there might be some places in London or whatever , but compared to the big slices that you see coming from America or whatever or Italy, we are incomparable, it really is because I've had some questions when it comes to my pinup pizza, it's about questioning the size like That was not realistic. and you can get huge slices of pizza.
I've seen it on Instagram, believe me, I've dripped it. I love over-the-top pizza slices and I love how it's over-the-top. um again with this drawing. She has some tattoos and has a bit. pizza tattooed there on her thigh and it's so cool that the style of this is completely different from my tattoo. Also, this is Emily's and we have a lady in a pizza dress here. Hi, absolutely, let's make that exist like Lady Gaga made a meat. dress years ago why hasn't anyone made a pizza dress yet? I love, love, love the hairstyle on this one.
It gives me like the first gaga vibes. You know, when she had like the bow in her hair was made of hair, it could have been. a wig, I don't know, but it gives me that kind of vibe and we also have pizza boxes down here and also with this one it has a blue aura around it, it's completely different, it's much bigger, it's like a round circle, it's as Completes the design, a really cool touch. I also like the style of this. It looks like watercolor. Maybe I do not know. It looks painted. I love it.
Oh, and Emily also did an abstract version that is so cool. I'm not sure what kind of paint. this is, but I love it so much, oh my god, this is so artistic, you guys are so talented, the next one is from olivia and she has made a very seductive and sexy pizza pin-up and what she has done here is that He has what I have. I've been calling modesty pizza, so she hides by covering the lady parts with a pizza. The things here are similar to mine, it's just that the tattoos are okay, they're not teal blue, they're more like a teal gray color. like a touch of blue but not completely the hair is completely different the style of this is completely different this is like a digital drawing it's not like in the traditional style or something like that it's a little more um 3d with traditional tattoos it's kind of flat somehow way I don't know how else to explain it, I'll just call it flat, but this is much more 3D, it has many more dimensions, this one is also wearing tights, that's a talent, holy cow, how did you manage?
To get them to look like tights, I'm blown away, I could never do this like this, it takes talent, oh my god holy cow, um, yeah, pizza just looks, I just want to eat it honestly, there are so many differences here, not even close one copy, the next one is from carolyn and she has made this cool curvy babe like hello, amazing, everything is quite different here, she is just holding a slice of pizza, the hair is different, the design has tattoos, oh this is great, I can do it. I can't forget how many ways you guys have done this like nothing has ever been the same at all oh my gosh okay this is great this is Lucy's and she's made one of these like traditional stock fish I don't know how. many of you have seen this, but it's kind of like a traditional thing, but the fish is holding a slice of pizza.
You guys are so amazing and creative. I love this, I even love the little anchor tattoo there. cool details and the stockings and the shoes like okay this is Emma's and what she's done here is put a lady on top of a pizza or like a bed of pizza or a slice of pizza who knows oh my gosh Can you imagine if you had pizza? that was like the size of a human oh I would love some of that, but again, this is so different, so creative, so artistic, I like what Jennifer said, this is my attempt, I'm not entirely sure why that you would hold a pizza over your head. but that's how it turned out and I'm fine with it, I'm 100 fine with it, okay, let's make up a story for this, so this is a lady, it's the 50s, her clothes are on the clothesline, she just finished making pizza for she. husband john okay and oh my god it's pouring rain there's no brother in sight oh my god shock horror okay the only thing she has to cover her hair that she recently got done at the hair salon is the pizza that the only true master in her sacrifices life his pizza to save his hair his hair perfectly styled to wash it from outside in the pouring rain that's the story okay i made a story for you i hope you like it this is just the most adorable thing i love hairstyle in this i love the color palette in this is also really vibrant but there are some subtle colors like the tattoos the pizza is pretty subtle and the background also has this haze this one is from tara and she has I made a super curvy pizza pin-up but she's wearing a bikini of pizza like Where can I get one of those?
I need one of those. This is great. I like how the tattoos are also colored. I like the orange circle and the Background, the hair is really cool, I like the pizza rope, it's so awesome, this one is from Kat and we have a black work style tattoo design here or a piece of art, I'm not sure of what we call them. I'm getting like 2000 vibes from this, like early 2000s, reminds me a little bit of Avril Lavigne, I think it's the hair, I don't know, but she's kind of punk rock nurse chic, but she has these tattoos and he is kind. like nervous but like the shoes are giving me ballet vibes, I don't know I'm just getting a mix of vibes from this, I love it so much that we also have the pizza down here, kind of doing a modesty kind of thing. thing so we're covering that area, but she's wearing a jumpsuit like the one you need is a jumpsuit no, what's it called?
I am aware that you have leftyour posts or whatever in my confusing post. I'll leave them all below with the names next to them so that you who know are interested in the art of these people or just want to. Say hello or whatever and, you know, share some love on their Instagram posts, just give it a little click and go on with your day on their Instagram, but yeah, I thought it was a really fun idea to show you guys that You know what inspiration. It's really so lazy to just trace someone else's idea, design or artwork, so I thought I'd show you guys that it's very easy to be inspired by someone.
Others' designs and just completely mixing them together makes it very, very different , like if you see all of these as tattoos on Instagram, there's just no way for you to say, oh my gosh, that's Lauren's tattoo, it's just not comparable at all compared to the one that's very, very, very close to mine, you know, all of these are also completely different from the one that is my copy or whatever, you know what I'm saying anyway, I just want to say thank you to each of you. It took me a while to draw something for this video or for me to watch and see, you guys know what true inspiration is and to everyone who's watching this and it's still here, thank you for continually supporting me and yeah, I don't know what else .
What to say about this matter, but I hope everyone is well and until the next video, goodbye, foreigner.
