As for the placement, if I put it on my inner bicep should I “flip” the image so that when I stretch my arms out, Bebop would be facing right side up? Or place it like my other two? I feel like if I do it like the other two in that particular spot it’ll be hard to see/tell what it is.

That healed beautifully. Maybe a little more highlights and darker, thicker outlines could of been done more-so in the fingers of Freddy’s glove to make it more appealing and give off the dimension of Jason’s mask actually sitting in the glove rather than blending in with the rest of the tattoo but that’s nitpicking.…

I was thinking it was to dark hiding the contrast. I was thinking maybe he tattooed it that way so it would look better healed .

Been a couple months. There it is healed. I actually liked it WAY more fresh with all the black as opposed to now with all the light grey. 🙁

What do you guys think?

Just really not sure why their website says to be as specific as possible if they aren’t going to be specific back. When they say they can tidy a few things up that sounds like a touch up, but I thought I made it obvious I wanted the entire thing redone. Do you think they caught that and that I’m the one misunderstanding them?

Thanks to everyone who helped point me in the right direction! If this works out and they rework it I’ll post before and after photos.

Well I did come here complaining about it, so I see nothing wrong with other people pointing out other things that make it a bad tattoo. I just want to get it fixed and make it look nice but I’m afraid I won’t like it even after getting it worked on by a better artist.

I don’t think it’s so bad it’s not fixable. One eye is bigger than the other and that green spot, that’s all I don’t like about it. I’m going to get everything on it colored in and touched up by a different artist. If I still don’t like it after that I’ll get it covered or removed.
