Given that you can't even do laser removal near the eyes, I'm putting my money on that being makeup/a shop.

Also the white in the teeth doesn't look like white tattoo ink, unless it's super fresh

Edit for source: I too have many a tattoo

[-] kamenlady@lemmy.world 19 points 9 months ago

I think it's a real tattoo, but not on the eye, but from some other body part. It's photoshopped over the eye. The bad quality helps a lot.

I'm choosing to belive this over the alternative just to save my sanity.

I stand corrected & i need more pics from this tattoo. Would like to see how their profile looks, the full face, from afar.

I just searched online for Plankton face tat.

[-] kamenlady@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Me too, after i saw your image. Lots of plankton tats, but didn't find another perspective from this one.

Since he's gonna live with that like, forever, at least it seems to be placed at the right spot, for his eye movements to fill plankton with life.

Generally agree. but the line work here looks exactly like line work for tatoos on skin. If it was drawn on, you wouldn't have the green bleeding out and in to the line work. That happens because the colors are mixing sub-dermally, just below the surface of the skin. This is generally because your fill needles are huge bundles of several needles and they always tend to bleed into/under the black line work. That's why you need extremely thick, well defined lines so it can hide the color fills bleeding through. In this case, it looks like some of the color got through.

The white as well is pretty spot on for white inkwork. That's the white color you get only for the first few months of a color tattoo.

Honestly, I think this is legit.

Could be wrong, but it looks real.

Source: I have many, many tattoos over much of my body, and several in color with white accents that looked exactly like this for the first few months after it healed.

[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Could be having fun with tattoo practice.

[-] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

It looks real to me. White ink looks really good for a few months to a year before it starts to look gross and yellow.

[-] sgbrain7@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah, I'm not sure you can even get tattoos that close to the eye...or can you?

[-] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

You can definitely get both your eyelids and your eyeballs tattooed.

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 7 points 9 months ago

tattooing eyeballs

A high risk procedure that will ruin the eye and render you blind if done wrong.

[-] sgbrain7@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago

Oh, yeah, I totally forgot about eyeball tattooing.

[-] spittingimage@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago
[-] sgbrain7@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Wait, can't those blind you? I wouldn't want to get a bunch of pretty ink in my cornea just for that to happen.

[-] spittingimage@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Possibly? My main objection was the needles in the eye.

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

You can get permanent eyeliner via a technique called microblading, but it's not usually done by tattoo artists.

[-] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

There are artists that do permanent makeup that isn't microblading, but iirc the technique is pretty different than most other areas of the body, so most don't bother with it.
