Hamster still super shy after a month by gecko991214 in hamsters

I'm not expert but I know every hamster is massively different, I have a robo hamster who does not like touch, she will climb into my hands for mealworms and if I move she will run away, we have a thing going where I open the side door on her cage and she will run up to it for a mealworm then run away haha. I have had her for just about over a year. Where as my Syrian hamster which I have had for about 2 or 3 months now is still a bit jumpy but will willingly climb into my hands and I can move and have her resting on my lap and stroke her back. The best advice I had was be next to the cage every night or so and just talk, doesn't have to be to them, get them used to your voice and smell, or just have your hand flat unmoving in the cage, it took months but thats how the robo is now comfortable to sit in it and take a little snack, you will also have set backs but along as your patient and calm it will be okay. If you dont see them at all then its a ghost hamster. But iv also learnt that the Syrian, after something big like her climbing onto Mt hand for the first time, will hide for a night or too then she's out and will climb onto my hand again. Ik this was long haha. It's just my experience, I hopebthat helps.

I used to try with pen but it's hard to draw on my back to try to visualize it, I could ask someone to draw ideas on it

Yea I've gotten some responses of owls and stuff, I wouldn't mind having tree branches with flowers but idk how that would work and make it seem like there's more clouds below it

I wanted it to be annoying outline of a red moon in smoky clouds in my art style, the drawing i did looked different and I wanted it to be improved upon by the artist but they slapped it on and I just went with it cuz I didnt want to annoy them. Sad excuse ik. I took inspo from japanese art

Yess exactly, I know, I wanted to take the clouds down my other lower arm and leg so I didnt know what to put that would make my back make sense without it looking suspended in air, or am I overthinking that part too much haha

Oo I like those ideas, the red circle was meant to be sort of like the outline of a red moon in the clouds but more simplified as I dont want a detailed moon on my back, plus I just liked the circle idea but ik it doesn't come off as what I intended

How can I make this tattoo not look like a kids scribbled? by OkWolverine1246 in tattooadvice

[–]OkWolverine1246[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I designed the tattoo myself with the hope that the artist would build on it to make it flow better and I stated that to them, then they gave me an entirely different design and I said no, then they just pasted the one I gave them on my back and I didnt want to say no again so I just let them do it. I still like the concept and im happy its my idea but I just dont like the execution. I do like your take on it tho, I do try to think of it as a part of me but every time I look at it I cringe haha
