Hogrider Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Correct according to who/what? The only thing that matters is how it looks to YOU. The only thing I will say is that getting a tattoo on the stomach is no fun. You've got to REALLY want it there because it's one of the most painful places to get tattooed. oboogie 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/9610-will-you-guys-tell-me-if-this-tattoo-orientation-is-correct/#findComment-150864 Share on other sites More sharing options...
oboogie Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 What Hogrider said. It's up to you. We can't tell you where to get tattooed on your body.

SStu Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Old school rules (certainly not a mandate in these days and times) is that any image should face toward the center and/or front of your body.

PinkUnicorn Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 When I got a rocket tattooed on my calf, my tattoo artist strongly suggested the rocket should be pointed away from the center of my body, rather than looking like it was headed for my butt...
