Mines lower than what you are probably talking about. If yours is higher, then it probably wont look plain.

Yup probly about 3'' higher then that or so. yours will look tight with more on it where its at though..

Thats what I was thinking. If I had a wheelie silhouette (sp) behind it with the text going through it or something like that.

What about putting it on your inner wrist or on the back of your neck?

I dont want it somewhere i cant cover up if need be and think they look stupid on the neck anyways. And my right wrist and left fore arm and wrist are already covered.

Your worried about covering it up and you already have something on both sides? What about on the hip bone offset towards the side. I've seen plenty of guys with really nice inkwork done that way.

T/C · 06-10-2009, 05:07 PM

I can have both covered up in long sleeve shirts.. Im not worried about it Most of the time i just like to be able to clean up with out any ink showing and i was trying to be nice i think they look like shit up on the neck i like them just below Just my

Though... Anyways i am not worried about where to put it i already know where its going was just asking about the tattoo itself.

One thing I've done before which really helps on sizing and placement is- take a pic of yourself, then photoshop the tatt sketch on you in different areas/sizes. See if you like it ect... Personally I'm not a fan of the tag style lettering, but after all its your body.

IMO if your doing a back tat it should be BIG!!! If you want to do your initials I'd say do them in LARGE BLOCK and have other pics inside of them of stuff you like. Alot of gangster/rapper tats are like that, google tattoos by mister cartoon you'll see what I mean, I'm a dummy at posting pics.

chipottley · 09-08-2009, 05:47 PM

Dude, if that's gonna be your first back tat, don't put it there cuz you're just gonna want somethin bigger there in the future. i got a tat in the same spot and it goes from shoulder to shoulder and about 30% of the way down my back with an equally large one right underneath it. you're gonna hog up a bunch of space for a little tat and then kick yourself in the ass for it later.

As far as the font goes, it's alright, but it does look a little amature. you need to have a real tattoo artist design you your own font based on your own general idea. then, if they draw you something you like, you know you've found the right artist.

I have a guy who re does everything i draw up anything

I know not to get exactly what i did and its because of that exact reason... But this has always worked out better for me if i draw it up on my own and then let him re do it and change what he thinks should be changed till we agree... Anyways this is on hold anyways because of the lack of money so not really worried about it right now have way to many other things that i need to take care of now that i moved out and got my own house

Bills suck

chipottley · 09-08-2009, 06:37 PM

True. I feel ya, but if you can give an artist JUST AN IDEA and then see them draw up exactly what you were thinking (or better), then that's how you know you've found YOUR artist. I think when you draw something up yourself first, it pollutes the artist's imagination. at least that's how I do it with my tattoo guy....and he kills it every time.

OC DeBo · 09-10-2009, 09:39 AM

why not on the inner bicep dude? i mean therre it is is kinda hidden, and what you have here is pretty simple. I mean dont waste your back on a simple piece IMO, you might have an idea for a sick back piece and dont want your initials in the way of your idea

[quote=T/C;3887976]I am going to be geting a tattoo between my shoulder blades. Im going to be geting my initials. Its slow today so was messing around with a few and just wanted to know what everyone thinks... I draw them up and my friend that does the tattoos re draws my shit so its good Lol so ignore the fact that mine suck its just the basics for him to work with to know what i am looking for.. The first I like the C in it but didint like the t so cut it out and did another T for the second.

Anyways was wondering what everyone thinks. Tell me how you really feel i am a big boy and can deal with being critizised

could be a hell of a lot better of a tattoo incorporating the same idea, but wat u have posted is just plain boring... being a tattoo artist myself, its always better in my position to be doing somethin interesting or fun, thats usuall when i give the best prices to just some food for thought there.... think of somethin better man u gotta look at it the rest of ur life not us
