I got this tattoo back in january, i had it retouched once to add darker blue, I want to get something added to it to make it like an armband but dont know what to do.
heres a picture right after i got it done
heres one a month or so after healing. i cant get a picture up of the retouch right now due to computer problems. the lower picture was taken in a mirror
thanks
Hi Canon
The ink does not suck it just needs fleshing out I will post some ideas that I think may maked it better (constructive criticism)
What I will say is try a new artist – check out one that specialises in black n shade as much of my input is to do with that.
1. Flames they do not do justice to the tattoo. I would recommend getting more shading and shape added to them. Maybe add some trails of dying flame sparks.
2. The body could do with some more gradient shading to help define the wings and feathers. Each feather needs ro be more defined and some detail of feather work in the back would help a lot.
3. The head could do with some more shading to define the skull features and maybe sharpen the beak a little.
4. The outline could do with been bolder so that eagle looks like it is going to lift off your arm.
5. Maybe just sharpen those stars with a bolder outline.
These are just small cosmetic changes and I tinker with my tats all the time.
As for the exterior have you considered a rising sun and clouds or clouds and lightening?
Let us know what you think and always happy to help.
Take Care
