Hey dudes, alright I’m going to be getting my first tat soon, and I commissioned up one of my favorite artists to design me a little something since it’s going to be special.

I’m soo into this artist mainly cause of the linework he’s able to do, and the amount of detail. I’m just a little worried since I’ve seen some stuff around the nets saying that fine detail will fade over time and look like a mess.

So basically what do you think of the design, and do you think it would hold up nicely if I were to go ribcage area and fairly large? Oh, and I’m thinking of nixing the ground/root area and just having the tree inked in?

im diggin the abstract, cartooney dr Seuss-esque design man, kinda cool. i dont think this would look bad. its not really that much “fine line” work… if you did it on your ribcage i think it would turn out fine. my only suggestion would be to add to it… just the tree alone might look a little…. plain? i’d say maybe add some sort of background, maybe some crooked, evil looking birds or something?

I agree with Apostle for adding more, like a background of some sort.. Anyways, sick design but don’t worry about it fading over time, think about it like your tattoo is a part of your body (which it is) as your body ages, so will your tattoo ๐Ÿ™‚

Agreed. Fine line work will fall out and potentially blow out especially on the ribs if you do not goto a good tattooer. Do you have one in mind? As for adding to it, just find a good tattooer whose work you like and let them work their magic! Pls post pictures once you get it.

Who’s doing it? Straight away I though Jesse Smith would nail that.
