Does anyone enjoy designing tattoos? :)

This seems interesting... I'm going to try to photoshop something together... No promises that I'm going to be able to do it or it's going to be any good. ^^

oh thank you so much Lo! that would be amazing! BTW I love your misfits cushion! its amazing!

Tattoo artist here !

I'm actually working on a design for someone else tonight, and i have a touch up in the morning, but i'll try to come up with something for you as well tomorrow afternoon.

Thanks ^^

oh thank you so much Autonomous! that would be so great! very kind of you!

Autonomous, you're going to wish you never mentioned that :p. You'll be bombarded with requests soon I bet lol. How long have you been tattooing?

And sorry Zina, I'm pants at drawing stuff But looks like you have a few helping hands here already. I started looking at the same sort of thing a little while back to have on my upper arm. With sparrows, a pin-up sat on an 8-ball with nautical stars and a skull and stuff so quite retro/rockabilly type. Unfortunately I got stuck designing it and gave up

Ok well I got some images together and (badly) photoshopped them together in a way that I thought would make sense. When I looked at your reference pics I got the idea of having a skeleton playing cards with some flames in the background. My "design" is obviously rough and the skull face might not be your/his style but it's an idea... I was going to try to add dice and pool stuff to it but I didn't want to crowd it. I hope it helps you a bit. ^^

i drew most of the tattoo my mother and a few friend have
im to chicken to get one for myself trough
i think its a big compliment to an artist to be willing to have his work inked on your skin for the rest of your life

Two and a half years Ruby loving ever moment of it!

Rather nice Design, 'Lo.

Zina shall i draw that one, or work off your initial inspirations?

Thanks Autonomous that would be great! take all the artistic license you need! I can't believe how lucky I am to have found a tattoo artist that is so cool! The photos I posted were just a rough idea of the type of objects I wanted to incorporate into the piece! Thanks again for your help! can't wait to see what you come up with!

Thanks hahaha. I can't wait to see what a real artist can come up with

@Silver Moon - I would love to see the tats you designed that your mom/friends got. (if you have pics that is) I love looking at all kinds of tattoos. I totally agree with you about tats being "scary" because of their permanent nature. I want to get a couple tattoos but I'm the kind of person that thinks about it forever before getting it (my friend just jumps in on a whim sometimes). I want to make sure that I wont regret what I get.

@Lo Thanks so much for the pic Lo! I like your ideas! I do like the cigar in the mouth! its awesome!

^^ thanks. I liked the cigar too! I think that's why I chose that skull. Smoking a cigar just screams poker.

@Zina - if you would like a drawing program on your computer for the future you should check out a free internet program called "Paint.net" it's a free download and the program is kind of set up like photoshop. It's obviously not the same quality but it's good for doing some "photoshopping" just for your own use. It has some good tools in it that photoshop uses and a couple extra fun filters that are neat to play with. I actually used this program before I could get photoshop.
