I have a question first, does having boobs make it harder to tattoo a woman’s chest? (mine kinda come up my chest when I lay down on my back)

And what I’m thinking for my chest peice is two Phoenix’ facing inwards on opposite sides of my chest with something in the middle. I want it to be a big peice, so I don’t know how I’d tie it in together. I was thinking something in black and grey in the middle. So that the Phoenix’ stand out more. Would the Phoenix’ work in this spot? I kinda want them to form a v? Would this even look good? What should I even put in the middle? Maybe it would fill in the spot between the Phoenix’, but I don’t think I’d want fire because the colors of a phoenix and fire are too similar. This is obviously a work in progress lol. Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks ๐Ÿ™‚

What styles are you into? I’m assuming this won’t be your first piece. Are you into cupcakes or zombies?

A mixture of both haha, but for this peice I’d probably want it to be more harsh & demanding if you get where I’m coming from. Definitely not something that someone would call pretty.

In the classic myths of the phenix especially Arabian lore there is only one phenix. Having two in a tattoo would contradict that. But who else knows the mythology behind something like that. They are classically associated with willow trees fiery nests made of twigs. Dawn. Often depicted grasping a snake in its talons.

Point well made. Thanks for pointing this out to me. So do you think that one Phoenix in the middle, wings spread would fit there and allow enough detail? Dawn is a great idea for the background. I just don’t know what I’d put below the wings now lol. And im not sure how a Phoenix would look straight on.

Picture it at a 3/4 view as though it were climbing and about to swoop. More wing would be visible head would be at the top. Tail feathers would be completely visible.

i say unless youre following a religion or follow the mythology of the phoenix it shouldnt matter if you have one or two. if youre doing it for the sake of art do what looks best to you and makes for a badass tattoo.

It’s definitely for the sake of art lol. I’ll probably get it drawn up many times before I settle because I’m picky like that ๐Ÿ˜‰ so I’ll probably play around with a few more ideas into this as well. I was also thinking a Phoenix and a gryphon or dragon but they seem so clichรฉ. I think the chest area is big enough for what I want. Well I hope it is because I have other plans for my back ๐Ÿ˜‰

If I was to get 2, I’d get the Phoenixes in this position and this sort of style but with a tail more like this one’s
