A Creative Griptape Design....

ive been skating for... ill say, 2-3 years now... and ive been drawing even longer... so i came to thinking that i should put the 2 together and come up with a griptape design for my new board that i bought... so i went on google and looked up various things... 8-balls, darkstars, symbols, element signs... then i looked for the japanise lettering/symbol for peace... i found a great design... here it is... turned out great.

    next step, underglows

    although, honestly, I dislike it when people put japanese and chinese all over the place. it's very trendy imo. but you did it pretty nicely.

    a comercial made me wonder, all those chinese/japanese signs all over - maybe they mean something else than people think? like... "Eat at joes'" or something <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--> just wondering

    lol if I ever learn to write in chinese (I ought to, I went to chinese school for 6 years but learned nothing) I will become a tattoo artist. When some punk wants me to write "down with the system" or "I love laura" on him in chinese... I'm going to write something like "I hate chinese people" or "Free money, just ask"
    ("i hate chinese people" because chinese people will be the people who can read it, and thus get offended and lay the smack down upon him)

    I've been thinking about that too. You know those shirts that are covered in japanese/chinese? I'll bet they say nothing but, "Stupid Americans will buy anything."

    If I was going to do Chinese/Japanese lettering somewhere (not nescessarily a tattoo, just any kind of decoration), I'd learn enough of the script and the language in question to write "LobSTER sticks to magNET". People always get "peace" and "love" done and it's getting kind of crazy. My way would be funnier because then I could screw with people's heads. :>

    I'mma laugh one day when they say they have peace for tattoos in chinese than when they show it, its totally different <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo--> Or if it had an extra character like **** or bum

    "love ****" "love bum" <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I actually know someone with a ridiculous kanji tattoo. She asked a friend of mine to find out the word for "death" or something like that so she could get it tattoo'd. Well, this friend of mine doesn't much like her, so he found out the kanji of "fat" or something, and now she has it permanently inked and she's none the wiser. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
