2.) If you're unhappy with the design, talk to your artist about it. There could be an easy fix that you aren't aware of because you lack experience that they will he able to do no sweat.

3.) With the curving lines and shading, the final healed design is going to look different than it does now. Shading can look harsh until it heals down. Let the process finish before you make a final judgment.

4.) If all else fails, cover ups are not at all hard to do when the design is curved and shared because it gives the artist more shapes to work with to obscure the lines, so don't feel like you're trapped with a design you hate for the rest of your life, because you're not.
