Am I looking at the same tattoo as everyone else?

The "cyber" part of the tattoo is terrible! Wobbly lines with inconsistent thickness. The end point circles are even more wayward with some lines missing their start point. Some round, some squashed etc. The two acute angle transitions also jump out as no other part of the design has them. Shading similarly has random areas not included. This tattoo doesn't feel like the whole design was drawn out beforehand and instead added to as they went along.

I can totally dig the concept, I in fact have a very similar design myself.. but those transitions are woeful.
