This is actually an upscaled work in progress, not finished yet, but I'm working on templates for a future tattoo.
Yes that's hand drawn. Yes it's already scannable..

Wouldn’t that have been easier on grid paper? Why use ruled paper?
I didn't have grid paper handy. Ideas came to mind, and I just wanted to start sketching like immediately.
Yes awkward, but also kinda helps relieve my stress as well..
Having to do a QR code without a grid would have the opposite effect of "relieving stress" for me :)
LOL, the page behind that is turned exactly 90⁰, the dot grid I drew with an ink pen tracing the intersections of the front page and the back page. Yes it was a bit tedious, but not haphazardly done, the ink dots form a proper grid where I filled in the squares with a pencil.
If for no other reason, I hand drew this myself to try to get a loose idea of how tedious and troublesome it might be for an actual tattoo artist.
After all the very informative comments I've received here, I think I'll rearrange my plans to not have a permanent tattoo afterall, but rather eventually have it printed out on temporary tattoo paper.
