I’d like to see the reference. Maybe that would change my opinion but I don’t really like it. I love gypsies and lady head tattoos and from what I’ve seen and read they can be very difficult to execute well. I’ve looked at a ton of gypsy tattoos and they do seem very hit or miss. I’m not an artist so I can’t give a good critique but I just don’t like this too much at all. The linework in the hair and head wrap looks pretty bad, the flower is unproportionately big and poorly shaded, the face seems flat and I don’t care for the colors in the face either. Other than that it’s great. Sorry man, just my honest opinion. But I’ve seen some good artists do gypsies poorly so they really must be hard to do.
Haha other than everything it’s great? Thanks for the opinion. I agree the line work looks a bit off on the head band. Really its from uploading the photo onto the computer. In terms of volume most traditional gypsy faces tend to be rather flat? High volume versions are cool and all but my client wants an old school look with my personal touch.
