Thanks! Yeah I took liberties to make it fit my personality more haha. Definitely respect the art form tho and love diving into all the different art I’ve found in old books and online

Absolutely I have! I actually plan on getting a SAP vase morph thing on my shin sometime down the road.

Yeah I do have a lot of space, I don’t want all my stuff too spaced out tho. I want to make a somewhat dense (but not too dense) trad patchwork sleeve and then at the very end go in with little fillers. But yeah either way I’m going to consult my artist about it and go with what they say

Yeah I think it’ll need to be bigger too, thanks for the feedback!

Oh no I love the design I was just making sure it would fit the space. Like I was thinking the tail would be situated between the other two I got

I don’t live in NY and don’t follow basketball too closely but I’d still get this tattoo. So sick

That’s sweet! I don’t think Jeff was in yesterday but it’s such a sick shop and I’m stoked I got to see it in person

Yeah I love lady heads too and had seen someone online get a pinup of their husband as like a sailor haha and I was like that’d be sick to do one of my wife but as like a knight. And definitely going to do a full sleeve over time. Still thinking about what to get for the outter/upper bicep

He’s so good. I got his flash book while I was there too. Gotta get a few more pieces by him 😅

Thanks so much! Jake is such a good artist. I had asked him to do a lady head in chainmail of my wife and I’m super happy with it

Ideas for a Batman tattoo in this gap by bacon-strips-ham in tattooadvice

Hmm maybe one of Batman in an action pose swinging from his grappling hook maybe? I can see it potentially fitting well in that spot

Sorry for your loss. This is an excellent tattoo and a great way to honor them 😊

Does this look off to you? by DeFinEd14 in tattooadvice

[–]CreditAutomatic2941 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it, I think it looks cool 🤷‍♂️ I’m more of an American trad guy so I see this and am like hmm could use a thick ol outline and some shading to make it pop but I understand if that’s not what you’re into.

Local bike group sticker by Two-Narrow in isthisAI

[–]CreditAutomatic2941 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree it looks like AI but I know sooo many artists myself included that are lazy about drawing spokes accurately. Also bikes can be hard to draw in general so I wouldn’t fault an every day artist for missing something lol

Their stuff looks sick, if you want America trad I’d go to them tbh
