reaperz Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Man I love this tattoo done by Chris Anthon. I would love to get something like this on my back or front. Only problem is I have a session booked for a similar design on my forearm. hogg, exume, JoshRoss and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1969-chesttorso-tattoos/?page=8#findComment-76702 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rough Operator Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 @chad koeplinger. Some old, some new. Still tough. This is one of my favourite tattoos ever. It has inspired me to get my full torso done in one go as opposed to just a chest piece. reaperz, SStu and Mark Bee 3 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1969-chesttorso-tattoos/?page=8#findComment-77010 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ODTP Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Hey all, I just joined and started flicking about thoroughly enjoying this thread only to come across this guy here! I live in melbourne and the guy with the chad koeplinger in Rough Operators post is my good friend who I was drinking a beer with only hours ago. This piece looks amazing now that its fully coloured and complete, I'll see if I can find a photo somewhere! Small world, great thread! Here's a sizzler from El Bara, from Madrid.

bongsau Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Has anyone gotten their ribs done first, then done a torso piece, or vice-versa, and regretted that order because of the narrower amount of space to work with? I'm planning on going this route (ribs then torso), but I'm not sure. Anyone have any input? nO regrets with tattoos! i did chest and both ribs first. i decided to go this route so i could tile the background underneath the ribs. which would have made sense if i went with a japanese motif full tiger but instead i opted for a neo-trad tiger head. the narrow space did limit placement. i.e. a little too narrow to line up the mouth with the belly button and make the rest of the cat head fit within. my tummy tiger ended up sitting low and goes below the belt line (no biker bodysuit ha). the tiger head ended up smaller than I had originally envisioned but overall I love it and think it's size compliments my physique and does not overshadow my chest bird. in the end I am quite happy with how the layout of my torso tattoos ended up. i like the space and think that i got a pretty unique end result. <pics in my gallery> and now that the big placeholders are done my plan is to tighten up, add contrast and darken the background neck-to-crotch to coalesce it all as it is several artists who have contributed to this bizarre vision I had/have for my front tattoos. someone once told me i looked like the backboard on a pinball machine (which makes me a laugh, take it as a compliment)! on the flip side, if you go tummy first you might limit space for placement of chest and sides. so it's all relative, really. just go with the flow and let the plan develop as you make progress. nO reGretssss!!! hfs40000 and reaperz 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/1969-chesttorso-tattoos/?page=8#findComment-82503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hfs40000 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Thanks for the reply. So what you're saying is pretty much yolo? Not sure what I'm gonna do. I kinda want full Japanese style torso and back, but I'll probably have the money for that when I'm 80 if I start saving up now.

The only problem with a stomach tattoo is what happens when you gain weight. I saw a guy who's Tibetan skull looked like a chipmunk.

I've been worried about exactly this. I've put on a ton of weight in the last year. I am worried about getting my stomach tattooed because I'm concerned whatever I get will get stretched and distorted. And what happens to a stomach tattoo when you lose weight?
