Dude, I gotta say you seem pretty calm considering someone just made such a mistake. It's permanently etched into your skin ffs

mrtheedge2u2

Wonder who you are on any normal given day

Snazy

Blimey your first post on SN, just to tell me that, thanks

At the end of the day, the tattoo is far from finished. Whats to panic about ? Its not like it cannot be corrected, IF I decide to do so

Snazy

Im glad you wasted the time wondering..... I didnt

rootkit

Hey I gotta start somewhere. Jeez, suspicious lot aren't you!

Seriously, how can it be corrected though? Laser?

Snazy

Could have it lasered, manipulated with more lines to confuse the lines in the image, covered. Plenty of options really. None of which leave me with any cause for concern at this point Its a tiny piece of detail on a large tattoo. But will be right when its finished, which is not for months yet.

Moi, suspicious. Naaaaaa, sarcastic maybe, but not suspicious.

yoza

You will be amazed at what a good tattoo artist can change/modify/coverup....its not set in stone, and Im sure if Snazy feels it worthy, he can simply have parts of it changed/modded/added too etc.

An example below.....this is to show what CAN be done, and certainly not what Snazy needs to do.

Indeed mate. And as we are only talking about a couple of lines here, im sure I can come to an agreement with her, on what can be done.
Gonna see what is offered in January. Pretty sure I would not be charged for the laser work if that is what was decided on. But I reckon that would be drastic.

Remembering of course that the style of these themes is about as far from photo realism as you can get, so quirky is acceptable. To me anyway lol.

In short though, it wont be staying like that

PS, thats a great bit of cover up there!

+Doc+

It would be changed or covered very easy, you could even extend the shaded design just lower than the foot and extend it up to give the Samurai more sense of depth.

Here is my wifes cover up, there is a small butterfly behind the wings that has been shaded through.

Snazy

Thats a lovely piece there Doc

Indeed the options on rectification on my warriors foot are almost endless at this point I will be sure to post up the decided solution when its done

+Doc+

Thanks, she loves it.
I was always wary of her having something so large done in a prominent position but having seen it I really like it.

The Dogs B******s

I like it too,looks really well done

Snazy

A friend (female) has just had the second session on a full back piece of a set of wings. Looking lovely, but a very brave piece without a doubt. Not to everyones taste for sure.

The position of that piece is perfect for that design I reckon
Looks fab to me

JimmyBFC

Hey Snaz, just had this done today, what you reckon fella..

mrtheedge2u2

looks good matey.... when is the next sitting?

Snazy

Jimmy, lookin good dude ! How many hours for the line work ?
What colours you going for. Gonna look cooooool.
Having much background done?

PS, im jealous now... Im not back under the needles for almost 2 weeks yet!!

Lee247

You lads crack me up. Take pictures of some fantastic tattoos and never notice the background of the shot

That looks brilliant, Jimmy.

whitescoob95

Whitescoob, hurry hurry , look forward to seeing pics of other peoples work

Lee247

whitescoob95

theboy

Must admit there are a few decen pieces of work on here but some are quite frankly awfull

Gargohlyes in Halifax is one of the best around. Not cheap but its better than having a piece of sh*t on your skin

Heres mine I had it done just over a year ago, 10 hours work involved



Looking for my next one now

Snazy

Any chance of a closer pic of that mate ? Loving the colours there
10 hours too, bloody well done for such a short time.

The Boy, you got me worried now, which end of the scale are mine lol

In all honesty I really think as long as the person who the tattoo is on is happy, then its job done.
Each persons taste differs. For me, mine are out of sight, and really only for me, so as long as im happy, its all good

whitescoob95

well said snaz, to be fair i rushed into mine..quite abit and i'll admit that, but looking to extend to full sleeve!! maybe hanya mask and geisha with small cherry blossoms??? find me a good tattooist in yorkshire lol

Snazy

I do my best lol.
hanja masks are my next more, shoulder pieces, got some ideas for them already

I travel 160-180 miles (round trip) per sitting for mine mate. Its not about bringing the tattooist to you, its about getting to them IMO anyway.
A few 3-5 hour sessions would save the travelling, but get the work done.

Im sure yours can be cleaned up a little, suprising what a good artist can do these days.

At the end of the day though, I have said it before, I dont regret any of my tattoo's and am happy with what they signify. I would hope most would feel the same about theirs too.

Lots more to come yet lol

whitescoob95

i have all the ideas but need to look for a good tattooist, tattooist and client relationship must be a great one!!! any recommendations??

Snazy

Im sure there are some recommendations from that neck of the woods on some of the tattoo threads on here. For me its a bit out of my area, I go Leighton Buzzard by Milton Keynes lol.

Im sure there are some more northern places mentions though Have a looksie.
It a good artist you want to start with..... thats where the trust begins for me.
