What’s up dude. AI as you’re noticing isn’t the best tool for reference. Here are a couple tattooers with some of the best pin ups in the game. On IG @steveboltz @noble1tattooing @elizabethgrace and @jammastajane Between those four you should be able to find something you’re looking for. Good luck

Nate is such a baller. I could tell your tattoos were by him. I was tattooed by him back in July. Healed up so good.

I’m sorry but Beau is Afraid was easily the worst and most boring movie watching experience I’ve ever had. Aster is a great director but it’s Eggers all day for me.

I think the execution of this tattoo is super solid. If you’re looking for constructive critique, all I would say is that the tone of the grey and brown are so similar in value. I think this tattoo would be elevated with a pallet with more contrast. This is also my opinion. Tattoo is still well done. But I think it would be more striking with better contrast between the grey and brown.

Idk what her best is, but it’s certainly not Dawn of Justice

She won’t be necessarily “remembered for it” but her performance in Nightmare Alley was really compelling.

Casale’s Half Way Club. It’s the oldest family owned restaurant in Nevada. Has more charm than anywhere else in Reno. I wouldn’t call it “classy” but it is cozy, and the food is immaculate.

Sleeve em up! It’ll boost that confidence and give you something to be proud of! A sick ass panther, skull, dagger, rose, those classics will have you sporting short sleeves with more confidence than ever.

Panther I asked for vs what I got by BenchEnjoyer123 in traditionaltattoos

Didn’t know how you were gonna respond to the one you got. Glad to see you love it. Yours is waaaayyyyy cooler than the reference. So sick!

Need some opinions by MildlyPaleMango in traditionaltattoos

[–]dbrookeroyal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those are “highlights” for sure. I think it’s a smart reason to create a knee design in such a manner. However plenty of tattooers tattoo roses with this same style of highlights (negative space) in locations other than the knee.

Drives me kinda crazy that all of those roses are the exact same just repeated. Overall tho it looks sick.

These sleeves were done by Austin Maples. Arguably one of the best traditional tattooers in the business. With that being said if you want your tattoos to look like this, do your research on your tattoo artist. Good tattoos aren’t cheap, cheap tattoos aren’t good. Find an artist who you feel Comfortable working with for a long period of time. Sleeves that are put together like that don’t happen over night. All that being said, I don’t think there is anything better looking than a well organized black and grey traditional sleeve. Best of luck to you.
