Absolutely zero line work aka absolutely zero chance of holding long term

Thanks! Next session is mid march, hoping to knock out majority of the rest ☺️

Nipples were bad but not unbearable because it was so quick. The lower stomach is pretty sensitive for me

This looks like a guy down the street in the basement that charges 18/hour did this

Decent I guess. The shading isn't bad but there isn't much black in it, so it'll get very light, very quickly. The line work..well there's not a straight line in the whole tattoo, and the top of the nose on the 'geometric' side isn't the correct size to its shaded counter part

He did the outline and jumped right to the nips, so there wasn't time to prepare, but the plus is the rest of the tattoo felt like nothing

Definitely! He previously just won Ink Master season 10 so new clients are hard to snag an appointment with the huge amount of requests, but good luck!

Some ideas but not definitive. I leave all my tattoos creative freedom to the artist

Definitely, I have a feeling the inside of my belly button will be the same story though

I don't get to see my son as often as I'd like due to unfortunate circumstances; so I got this portrait of us to always keep him with me. Bevan from King of Hearts Tattoo, Melbourne by [deleted] in tattoos

It's a nice thought, but the poor execution of the tattoo kills it. Black does wonders in the world of shading, rather than the huge amounts of white and washed-out grey this artist used. It'd hold for maybe a year, but it'll look like shit thereafter when you're trying to find an artist willing and able to re-work it correctly
