Hi everybody, I am a new user and this is my first post.
Anyway, I’ve been thinking a lot lately about getting my first tattoo, possibly on my shoulder or upper arm. I had considered one for a long time but never committed. There are 2 separate song lyrics that I have for inspiration but don’t know what to use them with. I don’t just want a plain lyric tattoo. To put it simply, they are both about overcoming personal demons.
The first is from August Burns Red’s ‘Composure’:
“Wave goodbye to the past
You’ve got your whole life to lead.”
The second is from We Came as Romans’ ‘Ghosts’:
“Ghosts haunting me aren’t defining me
Ghosts taunting me are reminding me”
I was thinking of a design that included these lines but they’re really for inspiration on the theme I’m looking for. I’d really appreciate any thoughts or ideas. This is a big decision for me and I want it to be be perfect. Thanks!
Welcome
Good on you for not wanting some boring ass text on you. Try finding some imagery that fits those lyrics. But the most important step is choosing the correct tattooist.
Remember a tattoo doesn’t need some soppy story to go with it Fuck LA/Miami ink for that!
Welcome to the forum!
A picture is worth a thousand words.
The best advice I can give to someone wanting their first tattoo….is don’t get it done on your prime real estate.
Save your shoulder caps for big/great work.
Friends don’t let friends get script tattoos.
As above, script is boring and unimaginative ๐
Its good that you came to a forum first to ask about your first tattoo as the people here will be able to steer you to a proper artist that will give you an amazing bit of art instead of your normal street shop shite ;P
