I actually believe that slight shading under it will complete an otherwise incomplete tattoo, but to each his own.

But if you notice in the pic, it is darker on one side and lighter on the other. I will post a pic tomorrow showing how the healing has progressed and you guys can be the judge.

Of course it’s dark. It takes MONTHS to go down to the color it will end up being.

Like reefdiver says, relax and enjoy your healing. There’s absolutely NOTHING you can do at this point anyway, so stop worrying so much and just enjoy your new tattoo.

I understand that. Take a look at the new photo I uploaded of it. It has healed a bit, but it looks as if the artist went real dark on one side and real light on the other. I would think that the line would heal all about the same if he did it right.

It just looks like he indeded it to show darker on the left and then fade out towards the right.

ok, the ink has been posted so much that i have started to pic it apart……..

shouldn’t the line from the d to the e been done so that it flows from one letter to the other, like it would if it was hand written ?????

Not sure what you are referring to. The line from the d to the e connects like regular script handwriting.

If that is the case, I’m not a fan. I think it looks stupid and doesn’t flow well.

Again, you can’t know what it will look like for at least another month, but personally I think it adds just a touch of life to the tattoo.
