Hi Guys,

New to the forums, I recently got my first tattoo just something simple to get a feel for it and I am already planning my second.

1.) Barcode… really?? 😮
2.) Please don’t copy someone else’s tattoo.

Well it’s not really that different. But if you’re happy with it, that’s all that matters.

if you like that tattoo you found on the internet at least try to change apart of it to make it unique in some way

The second tattoo should be a koi fish to cover up the first one.

Most important thing is that you are happy with your barcode.
The second most important thing is that you understand that while the barcode is not a disaster, it is not a great exampe of tattooing, please dont letthe same artist do the second piece I will garantee you that he / she isnt good enough to do a piece of that size and with that much detail.

Hi, cheers for the advice. The Barcode was done by someone who has only really done a few, although his other ones are brilliant. It was his first attempt at a BarCode and it was done at mates rates so can’t complain.

I know its not perfect but I’v seen alot worse. 🙂

I have also seen worse and if your mate tries to tattoo you with the engine tattoo you want I promise you that you will be seeing worse every day. Noone has ever done brilliant tattoos first couple of tries and to be honest if you cant draw a straight line you are in trouble.
Like I said its ok but its not good you can do better and for the piece you are looking to get you need to do some research or regret it.
