Damn, big and rib/back for first tattoo! How long did it take? I like the tree but it looks like more of the branches need shading????? Are those cherry blossoms?

Very nice design, but I think it could use some background. Mountian, sky, something.

Looks unfinished… You should have more flowers on there, or is it supposed to be loosing flowers? In that case, you should have some laying on the ground around the three or something..
It’s a nice tattoo and all, it just looks like it’s missing something. Background, more shading on the three itself(especially the roots), etc. That would make it a REALLY good tattoo.

It’s a nice design but it makes me feel sad looking at it….gloomy

Awesome tattoo, especially for your first one.

I have a fairly large design planned for the same placement for my first as well.
Keep us updated with pictures after the next session.
