There is a tattoo on his left forearm which appears cactus but it’s the hand of a monster, and this tattoo is made by Ryan himself. “One of my tattoos is supposed to be a monster’s hand dropping a bloody heart, but I did it myself with a tattoo kit, so it looks like a cactus,” said Ryan.
3. Tribute to his daughter
Ryan had simply written ‘Esme‘ on his knuckles of his left hand in honor of his baby. His daughter’s name is Esmeralda. Now, whether this ink is permanent or not this has not been revealed yet.

5. Barcode
Ryan has inked a barcode onto his left wrist, and this is done by himself. He has many homemade tattoos, and he called all of them “ridiculous.” According to Ryan “A tattoo should never be meaningful,” he explains the reason, “because at a certain point you’re going to hate it, and it might as well make you laugh.”
