    I really like how this guy didn’t just say “tattoo bad” or “tattoo good”
    Like instead he talked about why it’s actually not a bad tattoo for the time or if it was typical or not.
    Such an in depth and great perspective. Very fun to listen to, huge respect for the artist

    Ok I’m impressed that he knows how skin grows to say how a tattoo would change if you got it as a child.

    The illustrated man’s tattoos look like they were inspired by Alphonse Mucha

      Alphonse Mucha was a central figure in the Art Nouveau movement that had a renaissance in the 1960’s when this film came out

    I always thought Mila Kunis’s tattoo were swan wings. Hence, the black swan. Didn’t see it clearly until now. Still looks good on her.

    Some tattooists despite knowing how to draw and tattoo know nothing about art.
    This guy respects art. definitely a true artist.

    Don’t have any tattoos. Will likely never get one. Still, found this guy really interesting and learned a lot.
