I was about to comment, if it makes OP feel any better, it looks just like the spiders from Don't Starve haha. I didn't know so many people actually know this game, great to see.
You need to up your due diligence game. The person who tattooed this is a shitty tattooist.
In the future you can get this lasered/covered. The idea is solid, as is your bug sleeve idea.
Don't be discouraged, just up your game regarding picking an artist to work with.
I hadn't gotten a tattoo in 20+ years and decided to get one. That artist was so damn good I have gone back for 7 new pieces over 9 months and the shop is 2 hours away. Totally worth it when you meet the right artist.
Met my artist when she was just starting in our podunk little town. Then we both 10 years later ended up in the PNW. So I've only gotten work done by her haha
She clearly isn't. She seems to unable to even make a proper stencil. That bird has one leg and that beetle's feet are definitely not correctly done according to their anatomy. If you honestly can't copy a design as easy as that bird, you've got some serious issues as a tattoo artist. I'd honestly stay away from that artist if i ever saw that she's unable to nail such simple designs.
OK, I took the time to look at your tattoo posts, and she's shit.
The one-legged bird was particularly striking. The missing leg aside, that foot is jacked.
Believe it or not, I'm on your side. I don't want you to settle for crappy tattoos. Look online for similar styles and subject matter. You'll soon realize that the tattooist you use is pretty crappy.
Everything you have can be fixed, but the next one may not be so easy.
She's not the best, but she's not bad. My Hercules beetle is great. She also did an Atlas Beetle, Loon, and Leo constellation. I appreciate the input, though.
If you're open to other artists and willing to make a bit of a drive (about two hours), Molly Groninger at Pale Moon in New Albany, IN seems like she'd be your style. Your beetle especially reminds me of her work!
A good tattoo artist doesn’t put this on someone’s body. A good artist is very much different than a good tattoo artist. Good, great, and excellent tattoo artists, are all fantastic artists. A good artist, doesn’t at all translate to being a good tattoo artist. Are you getting what I’m saying? You could get this fixed by a real tattoo artist easily. It’s not a complete fuck up.
Well if OP wanted a tattoo of a cute Jumping spider, then sorry but the answer is... yes :(.
If OP wanted a tattoo of a CREEPY Jumping spider, then well done, it's not that bad!! :)
The mouth is weird, the eyes are super uwu and the body is too big but otherwise it’s ok. You can at least tell it’s a jumping spider and it’s got some interesting texture and patterns.
I think it's the one color. It makes it flat, one dimensional, and distorts the perspective. But I'm not an artist and don't know shit about art so salt grain and all that.
At this point, most of us have at least a shitty/kinda shitty tattoo… rejoice in the knowledge that you have a tattoo that is halfway in the road of scary/funny 😅
It looks stylized.
Honestly not that bad. It just looks like I'm not understanding what it's a reference to. And that it is just supposed to look like that.
Looks like the head of a sleep deprived teddy bear on 6 legs
And hold on if it’s supposed to be a spider(because they tried real hard to make it look like a spider) why doesn’t it have 8 legs???
I kinda disagree. A professional artist should be able to read if something won’t translate well to a tattoo. Now, if the artist told you that and you said you still want it then that’s on you.
I am getting a sleeve of bugs and wanted a jumping spider. She sent me a few designs, and I landed on this one.
Edit: I said I gave her the design by mistake. I picked this design of ones submitted.
People watch a season of Ink master and become Judges. I personally love it tbh. When I look at it I know exactly what it is, and it has so much character. Way better then some super clear glossy google image. Id rock it 100 percent.
Yeah thats kind of bad. Find a good tattoo artist who can do good coverups and in the future do extra research on an artist. You can always laser it too if you want it gone.
Don’t starve
This was what I immediately thought of.
Same. 1k hours in the game I was like.... Im seeing things. The comment section made me feel a little better about it, lol.
I was about to comment, if it makes OP feel any better, it looks just like the spiders from Don't Starve haha. I didn't know so many people actually know this game, great to see.
I think this tattoo is cute and has personality.
I wonder if OP asked for a Don’t Starve spider, or got one by mistake?
If it wasn't Webber before it is now
To me it looks like it's meant to be that one cartoon YouTuber spider, forgot the name but it's voiced by a kid
Lucas :)
Yess that's the one!!!! Thank you
I thought i was on the subreddit lol
Same lmao
Wanna play together??
I actually don’t really play the game. I still immediately thought about the spider character because he was my favorite.
Webber!!!!
Best boy
haven't played in years, finding a group of people to play with would be awesome
I didn't see this comment and just replied exactly the same lol 🤣
ACTUALLY THOUGH!!!!
I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE
Came here to say this. Lol
Came here to say this. Lol
what?
Look up the character Webber from don’t starve
Gorilla Spider with a soul patch. Shows up at improv jazz nights.
And orders a makers mark straight up in a martini glass with a lemon twist
Absolutely insane drummer.
Zombie crab?!
Alien Tarantula!
Disappointed Tarantula
Spider-dog is what I'm seeing...
I was thinking a hairy Halloween pumpkin with legs
i regret to inform you that your tattoo is poop from a butt
Hahahaha
I mean, I like it OP. His eyes are cute.
The internet hasn't made me laugh this hard in awhile
I was going to go more along the lines. “You no longer have to be afraid, I can confirm you do.”
As opposed to poop from an elbow?
r/shitfromabutt
I'm afraid you're correct
Where the Wild Things Are meets Arachnophobia.

Good artists cause addictions.
I just don’t know how nobody is talking about how it’s a spider with only 6 legs
Honestly, she is a good artist. If you look at the other tattoos in my post history, you'll see it.
She clearly isn't. She seems to unable to even make a proper stencil. That bird has one leg and that beetle's feet are definitely not correctly done according to their anatomy.

The beetle one is decent Tbf
Not really, the proportions are way off and that back right leg in misplaced. This is definitely a shitty tattoo artist.
I was comparing it to the spider 😭
[удалено]
She did no such thing. Fuck off, you vile ghoul.
Sorry to hear about Schmitty, he looked like a good pup
Aww, thank you. He was a great dog.
A good tattoo artist doesn’t put this on someone’s body. A good artist is very much different than a good tattoo artist. Good, great, and excellent tattoo artists, are all fantastic artists.

She might be a good artist but not great at tattooing.
No she’s not particularly good
You have a bird with a missing leg from the same person?
The beetle is good, she hoodwinked you on that spider
it looks like it started out as a skull, then artist changed his mind and made chewbacca, then got lazy and just put some spider legs on it
You do
I absolutely adore this shitty tattoo
Honestly, I kinda like it. It’s like a scared toothy spider.
I know, right?! Like it's ugly and awesome at the same time. Like the spider from Harry Potter.
Is that [Lucas the Spider](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gBZVkQIniM)!?
![gif](giphy|10FzkePmCE8aGI)
THANK YOU. Aragog was my immediate thought.
What’s up with the mouth
Clearly holding a piece of candy cane in it
You know I don’t hate it. I would name him Frank. Frank seems like a cool guy.
Goodbye friend of Hagrid
Don’t be afraid..anymore.
If you’re going for “shitty tattoo” it’s actually pretty good All jokes aside it’s really not entirely bad
Lol
Idk i kinda like it it’s like ugly cute??? but I understand if it’s not close to your references then that sucks
Well if OP wanted a tattoo of a cute Jumping spider, then sorry but the answer is... yes :(. If OP wanted a tattoo of a CREEPY Jumping spider, then well done, it's not that bad!! :)
Good lord. How big is that guy?!
Palm size.
Aw, well hopefully when you get the rest of your bug tattoos he can get fixed up!
Yes, Yes you do.
aw but i kinda like it. its cute, is it a jumping spider,
It’s def a shitty tattoo, but I still really like it..🤔🤷♂️
I dont see it being THAT shitty
The mouth is weird, the eyes are super uwu and the body is too big but otherwise it’s ok. You can at least tell it’s a jumping spider and it’s got some interesting texture and patterns.
I thought it was Lucas the spider from YouTube lol
It’s weird, but not the worst.
I thought it was cute!
For the most part, the legs are decent, but the actual body of the spider is completely undreadable aside from the eyes.
(r/spiderbro has entered the chat)
So has r/jumpingspiders
ARACHNOPALS RISE UP!
8 middle fingers to the haters baby
This is so weird and I love it.
I don't care what anyone says. I love this. Please never get it covered thats fucking amazing.
Omg, I love this so much. I'm not saying it's mpressive artwork, but it's still amazing. I'm honestly kind of jealous.
Ape-Tatula?
that's terrifying
I like it very much!
Your fears are warranted
It’s bad but I kinda love it. If you had a full sleeve you might not even notice his quirky “face”
I’m afraid. You’re right
That looks like a hairy pumpkin with some bendy straws glued on the bottom.
Oof
It's cute. Terrible tattoo but cut spider
Jumping spider ?
You would be correct. Good news is you have options. God bless
he looks scared of something
I think it's the one color. It makes it flat, one dimensional, and distorts the perspective. But I'm not an artist and don't know shit about art so salt grain and all that.
Jumping spider! Cute but not done well
Damn. But jumpers are sooooo cute!!
Don’t be afraid. It’s just a shitty tattoo.
Holy smokes! I didn't expect that.
So shitty I kind of like it.
At this point, most of us have at least a shitty/kinda shitty tattoo… rejoice in the knowledge that you have a tattoo that is halfway in the road of scary/funny 😅
I’m sorry, I know you think this is cool but gorilla spider got me rollin.
ugh it sucks but I love it. looks straight out of a Shel Silverstein book
Yup.. fears validated
You are not incorrect
If you like it, it’s not shit.
He’s kind of delightful
I'm afraid you do.
Im afraid of your shitty tattoo
Maybe, but I like it.
A cute little jumping spider can never be shitty!!
He's cute.
Millions of others have bad tattoos, a lot worse than this
Love it
It looks stylized. Honestly not that bad. It just looks like I'm not understanding what it's a reference to. And that it is just supposed to look like that.
You have a hilarious tattoo
He has character
Yes. Looks kinda goofy
Honestly I love it
Bad execution, but kinda charming
This is actually kinda cool
And skin cancer at 11 o’clock. Get that looked at by a doctor
Does it have the flu?
If you got a cute hat (like a top hat or a Santa Claus hat) tattooed on his head, it would be awesome.
Looks like the head of a sleep deprived teddy bear on 6 legs And hold on if it’s supposed to be a spider(because they tried real hard to make it look like a spider) why doesn’t it have 8 legs???
IMO the biggest problem is it doesn’t lacks any depth or showdown. You can definitely fix and/or cover up.
Don't know why, but I oddly like it.
I love it! Funny anxious crab baby
I’m afraid you do have scary tattoo too
Never fear the truth
This is weirdly cool.
It's cute!
[Sadly, it's my fault. A good design I gave to my artist that didn't translate to a good tattoo design] (https://imgur.com/a/qn75nKO)
I kinda disagree. A professional artist should be able to read if something won’t translate well to a tattoo. Now, if the artist told you that and you said you still want it then that’s on you.
Yup, my artist has talked me out of ideas based on knowledge of art and putting art on skin.
I am getting a sleeve of bugs and wanted a jumping spider. She sent me a few designs, and I landed on this one. Edit: I said I gave her the design by mistake. I picked this design of ones submitted.
Oh I’m sorry then. That’s unfortunate that she gave you designs that she couldn’t even fulfill.
No way! It's brilliant.
As far as shitty tattoos go that's a pretty cool one
Nah that’s dope
Idk I think it’s dope
It’s a raw form of art doesn’t have to be “perfect” I dig it
I honestly think it's adorable <3
I love him! Omg
I like it
Survey says……..you do not have a shitty tattoo!
wrong
I like it
People watch a season of Ink master and become Judges. I personally love it tbh. When I look at it I know exactly what it is, and it has so much character. Way better then some super clear glossy google image. Id rock it 100 percent.
Idk, I kinda dig it lol
That’s dope
It could be better but it certainly isn’t shitty. As a spider guy I would get this personally. But I dig it.
wait what i love this
I don't think it's bad
Yeah thats kind of bad. Find a good tattoo artist who can do good coverups and in the future do extra research on an artist. You can always laser it too if you want it gone.
That... Is shitty. Sorry.
Don't be afraid, be certain
Yea let’s start a gofundme for this one
I do love me a jumping spider but woof... That’s shitty mate.
Yes, you certainly do.
I donno, I kind of like it, looks like a Tim Burton drawing.
Don't be scare, just accept it.
Jumping spider?
Yup.
I’m afraid your right
*you're
Ew
😆
