tattoosbyfox Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I really didn't know what to post but I wanted to get the ball rolling for me. This was a piece I did last week. My buddy that helps me with my website came to me and wanted something to do with with "Bad Luck Good Speed". It is supposed to be "God Speed" but he didn't want anything religious and he considers himself to live in the fast lane. Haha. Anyways, I had a really hard time trying to think of something to do... what I finally came up with is a horse running away from a nuclear bomb strapped to his back. Kinda saying, you're fucked no matter how fast you run. Anyways... any thoughts, feedback or anything would be tight. Thanks!

hambone Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 looks like a rad tattoo man..my 2 cents would be...the head on the horse is too small...and the dust clouds could use something in them like dots or something...not too many but just something to make it "dirtier"..all in all its a good tattoo..i'd wear it Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/133-bad-luck-good-speed/#findComment-1121 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Campbell Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 It looks awesome! My only critique is I guess a style choice, I would have broken up the leaves in the wreath on the bottom into two leaves, right where they split in the middle, bring the line all the way into the black. But that's just a style thing...The tattoo is applied very nicely!

tattoosbyfox Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 thanks guys! @hambone, yeah i was debating on the dots in the dust clouds... co-worker talked me out of it haha. didnt think about the head being too small though. @Kevin, yeah i bust out that olive leaf stuff in a lot of tattoos and came accross some way older designs not to long ago and just thought id switch it up for a change. I got to find something new to use besides leafing and flowers to frame things in.

Yeah, I've seen 'em before like that on some acetates and thought that maybe somebody got lazy when they were cutting them or something. But there's no need to frame tattoos with anything different. Leaves and flowers look good. Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/133-bad-luck-good-speed/#findComment-1154 Share on other sites More sharing options...
