Hi I’m new to the forum so let me just say hi 🙂
Basically I’m booked in to have a sleeve done in June (12 weeks) now I kind of know what I want but I’m struggling to put it all together so it’ll look awesome if you no what I mean… This is what I’d like so far:- I want incorporating into it:-
1. Portrait of my gran in her younger years (top of arm)
2. Rose with stalk and petals ( over elbow )
3. Sexi Virgin Mary (top of forearm) really not sure about this… ?????
4. Scales (I’m a libra star sign)
5. Old pocket watch type ( just really like the looks of old pocket watches)
6. Religious quote (not sure what)

Any help would be much appreciated ? Thanks :=||

Welcome to the forum!

The artist that works on me would talk me out of a sleeve like that.
You should talk to him.

There are many people in this forum more well versed in that style than I am. I’m sure you’ll get a wide variety of responses.
Keep us posted, (and we like to see pictures when it’s done)

to be honest you don’t need stuff to make awesome, people have a illusion that a sleeve needs to be finished in a certain amount of time get what you want to get on the area’s that you want them and then wait and see what else you want in the future to throw in there. It’s a lot better taking time with sleeve’s because then you don’t get something just to fill a space you get it because you want it.

Hi mate, welcome to forum 🙂

Its a nice idea but personally I would leave the quotes out of it, it will ruin it imo 🙂

Nans picture with a sexy virgin Mary hmmm lol not sure abit that myself but could work I guess with the right artist. Its not something I would have together 🙂
