What tattoo designs can you never see enough of?

[Lochlan]

Tattoo trends come and go through "larger" society but many of the tattooers on here have been in the trade of tattooing for some time now and have seen things circle through and also see certain tattoo designs stay popular amongst specific communities. So I am wondering what tattoo designs can you not see enough of? As well as what tattoos can you never get sick of drawing and tattooing? Thanks!

[Dean Schubert]

the standards never get old for me. Tigers, Dragons, Panthers, Flowers etc. Trendy gets tired so quick. You know what the trendy ones are.

[The Hyena]

Ships, roses, girl heads, birds.....

Actually, If it's done well I can never see enough of it. I don't care about the image as much as I care about if it's a good tattoo or not. Nothing is played out if it's done well.

Well-done snakes and roses, all day every day.

[gougetheeyes]

Diamonds, owls, victrolas, lanterns, upside down umbrellas with rain, owls wearing diamond necklaces..wait, was the question?

Man, the more I see whole torso tattoos the more I wish I would've had the patience/foresight myself! Iwar's is a good example here. So good.

Yes I totally agree! If the Tattoo is "spot on" its amazing to look at all day long.

Not into diamonds or fuckin umbrellas, cup cakes, cherries, ICP clowns, Mike Devries superrealism or birdcages or weird rosespanthercoffins with spiderwebs and pretend cholo writing in the background. No cartoony Joe Cap, No dia de low muertos newjack neochicano Mike Giant BULLSHIT. No Nikko Hurtado, Roman Abeigo, Bandon Bond Neuma machine portrait crap. My favorite tattoos is neighborhood stuff from the late 60's to the mid 80's. I will never ever get tired of looking at it. It's what I thought was dope as a kid, and what I think is dope to this very day.

[Louisgoodwin]

small tattoos on the gap between your first finger and thumb , candles , skulls spiders , scorpions ,

[jade1955]

Pharoahs horses one of my all time favourites.

[Paul Shachtman]

Anything archetypal that's stood the test of time. Imagery that properly conveys the tattoo aesthetic survives on its own.

When Malone tattooed me, he talked about "flags." When he did the Sacred Heart thing on my chest (brutal, I dry cried throughout) he made a cross in the air and said "A cross, now that's a good flag. Two lines." In my limited interactions with that guy I really paid attention to what he said. He knew what he was doing. His flash is pretty much perfect to me. Not that Jerry's isn't. And Joe Lieber's. I need to look at more of Jensen's crap.

[ibradley]

Roses are a personal favorite. Also, a nice and fancy script always looks good.

[Lochlan]

right now once again hooked on Rock of Ages, Crucifixes, among others

[Scott R]

roses if I had to pick one image

[slayer9019]

tattoos based around demons/death/skulls due to their powerful meaning regardless of region, religion, everyone has their own version even if you are atheist. Not a very big fan of horror tattoos though.
