@ ArniVidar – When I said black & grey, I meant shades with black ๐ It’s pretty hard to explain what the tattoo guy said, but basically he said they could expand/cover up my existing work with tribal, but incorporate the outline of hibiscus like the pic above into the design and use the existing black along with the white skin to create a shaded effect (so they’re not just plain black)
@ Dice – cheers for the suggestion but not really my thing, though I can see where you’re coming from with the idea ๐
I’m going to have to wait a few months anyway to save up as money seems to be leaking from my savings like a bucket with a hole in the bottom (why is is added expense all bloody happens at once?! :mad:) but I’m liking the idea of the tribal softened with the hibiscus, and from friend’s experiences of the place I went to yesterday, they’re very good, so think I’m going to go for that ๐
I don’t completely dislike tribal – I think there’s some very nice tribal designs out there – but I just feel like I’d rather have something a bit less ‘blocky’ and more intricate on my arm. But equally I don’t really want a whole picture on my arm, plus I want black & grey, so I’m a bit stumped as to what else to have to be honest!
Well I went into another tattoo place today and got some very good advice from some really friendly staff – I think I’m going ot go for a custom tribal with a few hibiscus flowers interspersed (they even said that they could shade the flowers).
Very happy with that assessment and just need to save the pennies up now!
