Hi. I’m new here. Been poking around a while before I registered. I’m having a tough time trying to figure out how to put some tattoos together. I’ve got kind of a neo-traditional type style going on, with a little rockabilly flavor. I just randomly started getting pieces put on my arms. I’m not quite done yet with the pieces. So far I’ve got an anchor that says dad, a semi-hollowbody guitar, a zombie skull singing into an old school mic, checkered spiderweb on my elbow, 2 P-38 planes, a big skull with a crown, an hourglass, and a small jukebox. Listing it all out I feel like that should have filled me up. Haha. But I’ve still got a fairly large amount of room. I was wondering if anyone out there had any ideas for some more art that would fit the style. But I’m more concerned with filler. I am having a really tough time trying to figure out what I can put in there. I kind of like the small stars that a lot of people have used as filler between those types of tattoos and in the open areas of the tattoos themselves. Anyone got any good ideas for me??
hello and welcome to the forums. I would love to see some pics of your ink. im real interested in the p-38 planes. your right, it sounds like you should be filled up. What about pin up girls/nose art girls. i love that stuff. Just an idea. Good luck.

Thanks man. I don’t have the P-38s filled in yet. I got the outline of the P38s, the jukebox, and a diamond all at once. I gotta go get them filled in here in a few days. After that I’ll put some pictures up if I can figure out how to do that. Actually I’ll just be getting the diamond and jukebox shaded in this week. I’ll go back a couple weeks later for the planes. I’ll get pictures of all my work up on here so people can see it. The reason I’m having such a hard time is because I didn’t think through for the end project. I just got a piece at a time. Oh well though. It is what it is. I still love it. I can’t put the pin up girls on unfortunately, because of my job. I’m allowed to have tattoos but if they can be seen as vulgar or obsene I have to cover them. I’m from CA so I’d like to keep short sleeves if I can! Thanks for the advice though, I’m thinking of a record player and probably a rose. Besides that, I don’t know. Maybe an old school dagger and snake? I’m not sure.
