HELLO! New guy here. Asking for advice on filling a gap

[Obsidi4n]

Hey guys big traditional/Neo trad fan here and I would love some input on this gap I have, my tattoo artist was saying shark but there has to be something else I could do, so far I already have an anchor, swallow, lantern, ship, diamond, and a lot of flower filler.

looking forward to hanging out here as I’ve been a lurker for a while. Thanks

I have a similar gap on my knee and I'm thinking some kind of lizard because they have four limbs, a head, and a tail that can all be twisted into whatever angle the space requires. Good luck!

or a snake, coming out of a slit in your arm.

nice ideas y’all, so far I’m still digging the shark but maybe a shark head with waves to fill awkward spots I think that would fit in with my ship up top and my anchor piece down below, still not sure yet

All my awkward gaps I let the artist decide what he thought would work best to fill the spot and blend in with the rest of the arm. Turned out far better than anything I would have probably come up with.

Go to San Francisco, visit Jeff Rassier, and let him do his thing.

Chad Koeplinger, Steve Byrne, and Greg Christian have also been doing some super creative fillers.

Got an update for y’all , not as old school as I originally planned but I’m happy with it

Very nice. Don't think you could ask for a better fitting piece.
