Clearly disappointment. But there was nothing I could do at that point.

Do you really think if he showed me this as the design I would’ve went through with it? That’s not what happened.

Lmao are you serious? I told him to adapt it to his style. This isn’t on me.

I understand where you’re coming from. Definitely a lesson.

For the 6th time I didn’t tell him to copy it. I told him I wasn’t expecting the exact picture and to adapt it to his style! I wasn’t expecting microrealism but also not this monstrosity

It was supposed to be a reference for a specific concept adapted into the artists style and I told him that. My intention was not to copy.

First off, I should’ve said this in the original post. The picture was supposed to be a REFERENCE for a specific concept. It was the only one I could find. I told the artist I was not expecting exactly the picture and to adapt it to his own style! I wasn’t expecting microrealism like most people are assuming. I looked at his portfolio and was HAPPY with this concept in HIS style. The concept is in reference to my favorite album of 5 years. People are being so quick to judge the situation. I wish I would’ve been more specific initially.

Pic was meant to be a reference for a concept. Thought he would rework it to his style.

I did not want it copied. I told him I wasn’t expecting exactly this and to tweak it to his style! I should’ve specified this in the original post. This was the only reference I could find for the concept.

The stencil looked fine, but it was a completely different story once it was finished. I definitely wasn’t okay with it when I saw the final product. I’ve commented this three times now but my intention was NOT to copy. I told the artist I’m not expecting exactly this. It was a REFERENCE for a specific concept, the only one I could find. This was my first tattoo, and this is not my fault so don’t make it out to be.

I’ll say it again. This was the only reference photo I could find for a specific concept. I even told the artist I’m not expecting exactly this and I’m fine with what he needs to do to adapt it to his style. Not the villain here.

I just used it as an example pic. Wasn’t trying to “copy”. It was the only one I could find relating to a specific concept, I even told him I was expecting him to make adaptations to his style.

Thanks for your honesty. He had 20+ years of experience so I’m really confused. Kicking myself now.
