There's nothing wrong with tribal style tats... Done well. The least you can do is redesign it slightly to suit your individual self, think about how the scale will affect what it looks like applied to the contours of your skin and redraw the sun so it settles within/tapers nicely with the fishhook shaped part. If you want to avoid 'tramp stampy', don't be the tramp who whimsically says 'I want some form of tattoo and has some generic flash art literally stamped on them. Work with an artist. You ate an individual and this is going to be with you for the rest of your life.


Hope that helped <3

Yeah thats just the BASIC idea... I'm obviously going to switch it up, and I'd get the hook part done before anything in the middle..

If your going to get something it might as well be bad ass and meaningful! I'd honestly forget the stencil sun and basic tribal design until you figure out what you 'want'.

/honest opinion..

No one can judge a tattoo for you, tattoos are expressions of self. If you're getting a tattoo to look cool, you're doing it wrong. Getting a tattoo is supposed to mean something, and the tattoo is supposed to convey that meaning.

well, without the sun inside it looks like a question mark, with it, it kinda looks like sperm.

(though not ugly by any means. (maybe those are your favorite things idk)

Get some artist friends man. Anyone charging more than 50 bucks for that is ripping you off. That wouldn't take more than 30 minutes to complete.

But, I need some info! How much do you think it would be to get the following tattoo outlined and completed
(Thinking of getting it outlined first since I'm short on cash...)

and this is the actual size...

It's just a rough draft, not sure what to put in the middle....

THANKS :joint::-|:bigjoint:

It would look good with Seven of Nine's face in there. Or a Klingonette. That oval is begging for a femme fatale imo. cn

I think if you get that tat, then you HAVE to put "Mom" in the middle.

Seriously, as a Native American, I want to know more about the "tribal" part of the tat. What about "tribal" are you interested in/trying to portray?

I was thinking about getting a tattoo. Just an "M" on each side of my asshole. So, when I do naked cartwheels it says "WOW, MOM".

I don't know what it means, it just looks cool.

imo, the tribal tats already are starting to look dated. In 10 years it will look very dated. Plus, leo loves tats.
