vikklads Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Hello! I recently got a tattoo spelling "toast", and i know its a little thing, but i keep catching my self thinking about how the last T's upper line is thicker than the other T's. I know its a small thing, but i'm looking for advice to help my self try to forget it, as i mostly just want to accept it, but im having kind of a hard time. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/9713-the-small-things/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hogrider Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 The line making the O is thicker than the others, the two lines forming the A aren’t the same length, and the S is crooked. script is one of the hardest things to do well because there is no room for error. There’s no such thing as a perfect tattoo. Look at any tattoo long enough and you’ll find something wrong with it.

MakaveliX Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 (edited) My artist used to say wait until it's healed then get a touch up if you have to. It shouldn't be difficult to correct anything you're not happy with. At a glance, it looks perfect. As @Hogrider said, every tattoo has it's flaws.

LOL well yes ! the tattoo HAS to be healed before you can get touchups ! and you can't really touch up lettering without F***ing it up.

Make ALL the lines too thick, too crooked, different lengths? Because you can't undo a tattoo. oboogie and Dan 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/9713-the-small-things/#findComment-151525 Share on other sites More sharing options...
