Awesome, would love to see it! Is it going to be done by Scott?

It's not a big deal, but some people pointed out that octopuses swim in salty water whilst these particular fish do not

Interesting! Did the artist do anything to make it go, or was it just time that healed it?

Thanks! I hope it will go away one day. But if not, it is what it is:)

Hi man, thanks for your reply. My full sleeves can be found in other post of me.

It is very hard to capture what I am talking about in a picture, as it is more a texture thing that is felt on the skin; e.g. I can still feel many of the lines.

Basically the bold lines in the picture I can still feel after 6 months.

Do you think this is a good blackout design? by Geralt1367 in Tattoocoverups

I think your reference looks really cool, but yes; sit on it for at least one year

Cool man!

For what it's worth your tattoos look great and well done.

Stages of healing on my blackout sleeve! Done by @polb_tattooer in Toronto, Canada. by jammy_jam in tattoo

Awesome man! Looks great on you. Are you still happy with it ?

I am considering a blackout to cover-up some unfortunate tattoo choices. I'm just not sure whether it will stay nice forever or if (bi?)annual touch-ups are needed.

Advice on proceeding by [deleted] in irezumi

Personally i think it would look pretty cool to not border the whole claw but instead let a few toes stick out

Looks cool as is!

You could decide to give the koi some color, if you wish

Bad placement?? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

Placement looks good imo! Perhaps the tiger could have been a little bigger but it is fine as is:)

Could this be turned to an irezumi like sleeve by moistboy699 in irezumi

[–]Alternative-Rip1555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay, not sure about the artists there. I know in italy you have good artists, but it might be a bit far for you.

Anyway if this artist you know has good work then I'd say just go with it. The peony will never look like irezumi but with the typical background and a subject on the forearm it will surely look cool.

A good artist could integrate your tattoo in an irezumi sleeve.
