    Hi everyone, i’m not sure if anyone could point me the right direction.

    But basically I want to get a tattoo done of a heart with wings done on the back on my neck (so its not going to be huge) with my missus name on a scroll underneath (yes cheesey i know!). So far of looking most are and as i expected a bit girlie looking. I dont want anything tough and gothic looking, but just something a bit less macho. A design i did like was done by jen Carmen i believe, but I cant link to a pic as its only on websites where you can pay for the image. But its one big heart and two smaller ones each side with wings and a scroll, its the sort of thing i’m after but I was hoping there might be some different examples.

    thanks in advance for any help.

    Are you thinking of doing the tattoo in color or black?

    Adding the tribal lines around the edges makes the heart more masculine. However it doesn’t have a scroll but something like this could be modified.

    I’ve not really decided yet, kinda waiting for the right design to jump out at me.

    the tribal around it does make it look cool. But with regards to the wings i was ideally looking for something a bit more realistic looking, rather than how they are on there. I think my best bet will to be kinda grab lots of different elements and just go into a tattoo place and see if they can draw something up for me.

    Absolutely! I think you will appreciate the design so much more if it is custom made just for you. However I would resource an artist to specificaly draw up the design for you. Check out tattoo my brain. They have a free course on getting tattoos and how to go about doing it exactly.

    I am glad you like the design.

    I agree, I think that going into a tattoo parlor with an idea in mind and letting the artist draw it up is the best option.
