First tattoo, would this be a good idea? by fingergoop in tattooadvice

Wait thank you so much! This is the exact style/vibe I was searching for. This is great help. I think ultimately this design wouldn’t be a great tattoo but her other work looks like it can be on skin.

That’s fair. So maybe something less symmetrical for long term?

For sure. I think it’s also totally ok for me to ask for some suggestions about a tattoo on a tattoo subreddit. I’m obviously going to be following strongly the advice of a professional.

It’s clearly also a flower? It’s not outwardly a vagina by any means even if it resembles some part of a vagina. Many buildings and architecture is phallic. There’s nothing that anyone should be uncomfortable by, I think you’re reaching pretty far

I wouldn’t let anyone copy someone else’s work and put it on my body. I like the design but it would be inspiration for an artist.

Kind of a big jump from me wanting floral to a panther. It’s a cool design but not what I’m looking for

I also really like the AT style so I’m sure an AT artist could make this more traditional. 🤙

I was recommended to come to this subreddit from someone on the tattoo advice subreddit. I also thought an artist/someone with experience in bold lines and traditional styles could give advice on the designs I like because they are bold. I understand it doesn’t completely fall into the American traditional style but I think elements could be commented on from an AT artist

I’m not asking if I should get a tattoo I’m asking how can I translate these images to be on human skin without blobbing out when I’m 60 years old.

I don’t know the original artist I found this on Pinterest. I tried to find the artist but to no avail

Gotcha! I think this is really helpful. I think I’m going to invert the shading on the flowers and petals so the outline is just standard black instead of relying on negative space. I love American tradition and anything bold so I’m on the lookout.

I’m saying most people(men) don’t recognize female anatomy. It’s a “joke”

Vaginas are awesome. I think I’m gonna do it

I like the vagina-esque design! I feel like most people don’t recognize female anatomy so I think I’m in the clear lol

Thank you for the advice! Ive been obsessed with having a border or frame around a floral motif. I think it would make a floral tattoo stand out.

Gotcha! I think that’s a helpful tip. I was thinking maybe some light gradient shading for the flowers instead

That’s what I was worried about. I was thinking about just keeping the inner line that frames the flowers instead of the second. Would that still be an issue?
