If you want to nitpick, that one leg seems to be sticking out of the middle of the bird’s stomach, so adding another one without some serious consideration won’t necessarily be any better.

Man, that crow is SIIICK. Good work! Pretty big skull, too (more black would be badass.) I think this piece could benefit greatly with an eventual background someday since all the pieces are somewhat big in size, not giving off a smooth flow with sizing proportion. The ribbon kind of looks like it’s not attached to anything and is kind of floating…[Read more]

Proportion is way off (the diameter of the crown from the left compared to the right is longer) the roman numeral “cursive m’s” are disoriented from one another (one is widely shaped and the other is closer together with wonky, thick linework) and the dash’s (-) are not symmetrically placed.

You already know to get the right tattooist, right? 😎 Good..now…it’ll certainly work for sure. What I would do if I was you, I wouldn’t go with the cartoonish color pallet and not make your piece bright so to speak. I’d go with a more muted, darker style to the purple, tan, red, etc and allow that to naturally blend in with your black and…[Read more]

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. Overall, I love this. Congrats.
