Scott R Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I like it, Wonder why artist didnt put different view of flower so he could get more colors and depth into it.

pintindola Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 That looks like a rough spot for a tattoo right on the hip. Props for sitting. Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2608-first-tattoo-complete/#findComment-43444 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdhenry2010 Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 Thanks! Yeah it hurt!! The hip and the ribs were the worst. But now I feel like I deserve it more since I went through so much pain. :D Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2608-first-tattoo-complete/#findComment-43449 Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdhenry2010 Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 What do you think about the lack of color in the inner center of the petals? I'm not sure if I'll keep it that way or not.

Kev Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I like some "negative space"(skin) in a tattoo- helps add contrast/makes stuff next to it "pop".

CaptCanada Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Very nice and agreed, negative space helps the tattoo. Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/2608-first-tattoo-complete/#findComment-43482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tatB Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 What do you think about the lack of color in the inner center of the petals? I'm not sure if I'll keep it that way or not. I just got my 1st tattoo and I've spent hours thinking of ways to make it better and finally realized I was over analyzing every detail of a well done tattoo. Now I spend hours brainstorming and researching ideas for future tattoos because I still have lots of empty space to fill...

petepunter Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Congrats on going all out on your first tattoo and getting a some really boss ink!! I have a friend that really wants a Traditional Japanese half sleeve but he is afraid its going to hurt. a few people are telling him to get something small and go from there but I keep telling him if he goes to a good artist and really loves the Traditional work and half sleeve look go for it first up he will more so regret a small cheap tattoo over a getting a timeless art form and waste valuable skin if he decides to get more in the future. Its funny how he is scared of a tattoo needle too as he is a ex Heroin addict that did time for armed robbery.
