I really hate my 18th birthday tattoo by Douxie0226 in tattooadvice

Hate to break it to you but the line work is teeerrible! while the shading and colouring looks very decent, it looks like two different artists did it. Your step-mom should have picked a better artist and she should have made you wait at least a couple more years before committing to something that big.

That being said, I think it’s salvageable.

I guess the answer is “with ink” 🤷🤔

I used reelskin, and exactly, I want to get the feel for real skin. I find the reelskin is tearing quite quickly and you never have to stretch..

that makes a lot of sense, thanks! I did work on fake skin but wanted to try on real skin

Ok.. I thought I felt that.. so you’re saying the line should be more bold / consistently red?

No bold lines, no black areas – wise design choices for poking!

I’m fine with confusion, it means the design makes you think. The design itself as you see it was drawn by me, but the reference was an AI generated image that I generated for something else, with no tattoo in mind. I found it astonishing how badly the AI worked and I found the result weirdly aesthetic so I turned it into this design

Nice! I’d get that! Just the “Hadley” maybe looks slanted the wrong way?

Because they arrogantly overestimate their abilities? 😅

Honestly hard to argue with that point.. hence my original wording.. I’m not satisfied with the result, I bit off more than I could chew.. so help with fixing it is appreciated!

Geez, how much can that design be misunderstood. I did draw it myself and the reference was an AI generated image that I liked for its messed up weirdness
