minisoda Posted June 21, 2022 Share Posted June 21, 2022 I have an appointment to get this Panther Motorcycle Helmet done in about a month. As you can see it will be next to a large traditional eagle. I'd like to find a good background to tie the two together. The artist sketched out flames, but not sure I like that style. Any ideas?

Expand I think the flames look decent. Maybe add more cloud around the eagle and bring it over the panther instead. It depends on your preference, you could add more stars aswell.

Hogrider Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Not a fan of the helmet. REALLY not a fan of the flames. Why take up valuable real estate? Wait until you fill up your arm and then put in filler. oboogie 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/10718-background-ideas-for-panther-tattoo/#findComment-154705 Share on other sites More sharing options...

minisoda Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share Posted June 24, 2022 Appreciate the feedback! I actually like the helmet more than the panther, but something just isn’t working on the whole design and you guys confirmed that. The original design had a skull inside the helmet, but I’m just not a skull guy. The helmet and swallows are meaningful just because of my passion for motorcycles, riding and adventure. Back to the drawing board! Any ideas greatly appreciated… Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/10718-background-ideas-for-panther-tattoo/#findComment-154742 Share on other sites More sharing options...
minisoda Posted June 24, 2022 Author Share Posted June 24, 2022 Alternatively, maybe go with American Traditional two swallows/roses/heart representing our two kids. Probably best on my left chest (vs inner bicep) and would tie with the eagle. This example isn’t the best, but I know my artist would come up with something great.

oboogie Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 I love Sailor Jerry stuff. I have a lot of American traditional tattoos, so I think that is a great idea.
