Instagram

There is absolutely nothing in that portfolio that makes me think ‘wow’. In my opinion if you are giving your hard earned money to an artist, you should get ‘wow’. By the way, it took me until my third tattoo to find my first ‘WOW’ artist. If I am looking at a portfolio and I actually make a noise, then I want work…

Excellent work! I like the show, but in my office the people don’t know classic series’s like M*A*S*H, The Honeymooners, etc.

I think a tattoo of an iconic tv or movie character will stand the test of time. A tattoo of a current show, probably not so much.

I think that everyone will always recognize Yukon Cornelius. But 5 or 10 years from now a tattoo of a character from what is popular today will be forgotten. Although I have recently seen…

Really? The stars aren’t even star shaped, half of them are in the shape of an A with a large crossbar. And a couple of the tail feathers don’t make sense either. I would NOT EVER let that person tattoo me. Ever.

Clearly the OP is happy with it, and I guess since she is wearing it that counts. And having someone…

He’s not from Europe, but Deano Cook does some amazing undersea tattoos. Maybe you could catch him at a convention over there.

Yep Deano Cook was the first name that popped into my head

Thanks Lola. You just made iced tea come out my nose!

And I am also looking forward to meeting Rich Pineda while I’m there, since I’ll be sitting in his chair in October.

That is the name that really caught my eye. Now I’m jealous

I think that your idea sounds good, if you are going to get text then that is definitely the way to turn it into a better and more interesting piece. Good luck, and the price for all this advice is that you have to post some pictures once it is done.

I have to say that your English is excellent. Better than a lot of…

I am heading over to Campbell River (on Vancouver Island) and the annual Salmon Festival will be happening there. Including a BBQ Salmon competition, so I expect to be filling my belly with lots of delicious salmon. Maybe next year.

Oh! My! That sounds great!

Two years ago I would have told ALL you people how fucked up you were by getting tattooed.

What the fuck is up?

But you could somehow incorporate a Sleestak, too. As another 70’s reference.

I had to google “sleestac” to find out what it was. (I graduated high school the year that show started and I never watched it. I was discovering many new things and I (living at home) didn’t stick around the house much.)

(90’s tribal) + (I’m a nerd) = shitty tattoo

Is that what you are going for?

(the opinions expressed by me do not necessarily represent the views of this Forum, its moderators, or …. oh screw it. We all hate tribal.)

I am a shift-worker and our office is open 24X7X365 so I also sacrifice many weekends and stat holidays to the paycheck gods. Lucky for me we do a compressed work week so I only go in 3 days or nights a week. 🙂 (They are really long 12 1/2 hour shifts :(.)

There are lots of good ideas here. I personally kind of like the more new school/slightly cartoony version that was suggested, if you pick the right artist they would certainly be able to capture her likeness. Not the style I usually go for but I can see this working out as an excellent tattoo in that style. But you…
