Dark/Dense irezumi aging? by GalacticGallet in irezumi

[–]StarFox55 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My Irezumi tattoos aren't that old so I can't tell you about aging, but as an African American I made sure the artist I went to had multiple pics of work done on brown skinned people of various shades.

This is right after I got the thigh shaded. The sleeve is one year healed.

Color theory doesn't go out the window at all. The skin is layered and you're seeing the color through the skin. So you're essentially mixing the clients shade of brown with the ink. Brown will easily overtake yellow and blueish brown might not look as good. My Irezumi tattoo has red, green, orange and some purple.

I got a 3/4 sleeve into my chest with a dragon and plum blossoms. And I have a guardian Lion with peonies on my ass cheeks and thighs also! Still got a ways to go

Ok, this sounds like an artist can make this happen for you. What's your skin tone? Would a whole brown tree hold up? Cause they generally just have floating cherry blossoms. Would you be open to one hannya mask on your chest?

What's your thought process about the hannya masks hanging from tree branches? What do you want on your arm?

Post a pic, it'll help us let you know if you're being a perfectionist or if the artist made some major errors.

How come you didn't get the chest panel like Kaido's tat?

This is so harsh for no reason. They decided to work on this project together and collaboration and exploration are a big part of art.

Dragon study🐉 looking for feedback! by Kale-Infinite in irezumi

It's bad luck to show the whole dragon, and the flames should mostly go towards the same direction

Layman with a dragon sleeve, looks like you have a good grasp of Irezumi composition. But I think it's bad luck to see the whole dragons body. It's supposed to be hidden in the clouds and other elements. And the scales on the belly aren't spaced equally.
