Hows it going guys and galls.. Im new to this forum and looking for some help. Its time for some more ink!!! Been thinking about it for awhile now, and have always loved leg sleeves. I have a tribal cross on my left calf, and a flaming skull on the back or my right calf. Then my most recent tat is a map of ireland with a poem and some other stuff in it… I cant make up my mind of what i want to add to one of my leg tats, i want to eventually have the sleeve look to my leg, but what can or should iadd to it. Im open to ideas and looking forward to your thoughts. Thanks

It has to be approved by the text and tribal review board. The intricacies of threads containing text and tribal tattoo ideas are such that the board only gives it’s approval for a small number of cases.
Suppose you really want to get a text or tribal tattoo? If you wish to have the board bestow it’s blessings on your text or tribal tattoo ideas you must really consider: 1) Where did your ideas originate? 2) Why are you considering them? 3) Where are you planning to put them? Then you must communicate your thoughts to the board for their review. Apparently the process has started which is good because it may take several months. The best part of the time lag is that you may lose interest in getting a fucked up text or tribal tattoo and get some nice tattoo. (most of us here think text and tribal tattoo’s are shit)
Have a nice day.

LOL. Perhaps every state/country should have such a board 🙂
The skull would be easiest to work with and make a sleeve out of. Tons of things you can do and add to it! You can add more skulls, make it a horror piece, add portraits, chains, whatever you want really. I’d suggest finding a new artist first of all, figure out what you could imagine adding, and have them re-do it a bit to fit in.
It’s not very well done, but it’s light so it wouldn’t be a problem to work with it and make it work better.
I personally love skulls and horror stuff, especially when there is a lot of black in there! I’d suggest going in with a shitload of black, adding some more twisted skulls around it, maybe something Paul Booth style, get some nice contrasts etc going on. All depends on what you like!

I notice that there is no mention of text or tribal tattoo’s here. This is good advice.
As for your suggestion, years ago I made a mold of my penis to make candles for my wife’s very special 50th birthday cake. If I can find one, I will fuck myself if need be.

Just because the replies you got weren’t the replies that you were expecting doesn’t mean that they did not offer advice. And good advice.
Remember the title of your thread is “Looking for some ideas/thoughts/opinions”. So people offered their ideas/thoughts/opinions. The consensus of the opinions is that text and tribal tattoos suck and they waste what is valuable space for awesome tattoos. And that your skull tattoo isn’t great either.
Now dry your tears and take what you can from their ideas/thoughts/opinions. Because EVERYONE on this forum is in favour of excellent tattoos. And they would like to help you to end up with the most incredible leg sleeve that you can get. Better than you have ever seen. Better than you can even imagine.
Good luck.

It’s really hard to be positive when you present shit like this as gold and drops of rainbow.
