Wanted: Artistic help for a Tattoo

[BeoTeK]

Hey Guys/Gals.

I need some help and hoping someone here is able.

I am wanting to get my first tattoo and looking to elaborate on it and need some input. Obviously tattoo artists would have a good idea as their canvas is the skin. Otherwise someone who is better artistically inclined than myself.

It would be a very sentimental/emotional tattoo for myself, hence why I am wanting to scrutinize.

Thanks,
Beo...

So what do you want us to do? I'm kinda confused..

[BeoTeK]

Well this is where I'm a noob at it. Obviously I wanna know if my ideas are good, if they'll work, rather put it here, rather do this/that.

And basically to help with design of the tat. Like I say, I have what I want, but should I elaborate on it?

[MetalSoup]

should I elaborate on it?

Yes.

4. Fact checking is important.



5. Never do a tattoo of something that is better said on a t-shirt...



6. ...or on an advertising billboard.

Lemme see if I can do a "10 Commandments of Tattoos" type thing:

1. Spell-check twice, ink once



2. No names, no matter what.



3. If you're going the photo-realistic route, double check the artist's portfolio.
