If I just kept the outline it would always look like an unfinished tattoo. I feel the shading really made it pop and gave it realism which is what I was going for.

I don't have much experience with tattoos as this is my second one, I just hope if color is added the realism will go away. I will just have to talk to the artist.

Can you add some type of color to it, like a water color paint, to see what it would look like with color? If some type of marker, paint, etc. could be added, then you could see if you like it with color or not.

'merica
both arms on the underside of the bicep/triceps. one of the most painful spots to have them done. you must like pain :eek:

Honestly they weren't that bad. The worst was either the Mario tattoo on my waist/belly or the "wind" that wraps around onto my rib cages...

I thought I was going to vomit with this little guy


My back, the back of my ribs felt like they were on fire

I didn't even see the Black reference until I went back, and then it stuck out like a sore thumb. The Kill Em All took me even longer. Almost didn't notice it.
