Just wondering your thoughts on my tattoos…
My black panther tattoo on my right arm:

My Chinese Kanji Script on my left bicep. The symbol means “Heaven’s Messenger”:

My flaming sun tattoo around my navel:

Hi Tat2d
Just taking a look at your pics.
Is there any chance of a clearer pic of your panther? I like big cat tats but the pic is slightly blurred so hard to see the line work closely.
I particulary like the colouring and shade work on the forelegs, the muscular look coming out of the night looks good.
Kanji
Was the Kanji done free-hand? there a few small wobbles, but overall it is not a bad piece for the large size.
If I might add some constructive critisicims;
I would recommend maybe a small rework of the outline just to tighten the bend on the bottom character. Also it would look great with a colour reshade.
Personal taste but have you considered an outer shading on the characters to make it more fleshed out?
Tribal
I am not normally a tribal fan – nothing wrong with it just not my taste. That said however you have some tight linework and a good fill of colour on that. It is a nice piece.
Take care
Matthew
I’m sorry dude, but your tattoos are boring. Kanji is over done, the lines wobble, and the coloring leaves something to be desired. While I *AM* a huge fan of tribals (most of my own work incorporates them in one form or another), that belly piece looks like flash.
I know for a fact that panther is flash–I’ve seen it on the walls of no less than three different shops.
I don’t normally tell people I don’t like their ink, because even horrible home made tattoos are usually interesting, but these bad boys aren’t even bad enough to be interesting BECAUSE of their suckiness. They’re just…blah.
Which I guess is unique. Sorta.
Love. Peace. Metallica.
jeez you’re sooo niiice KH, i’d like to see a better pic of the panther.
