As far as I know (im no expert!) a touch up should be able to repair any accidental damage thats occurred to a tattoo while its healing, and im pretty sure most artists will offer a free touch up for any tattoo that they do!

Dinosaurs are awesome. Tattoos are awesome.

Your tattoo is therefore double awesome! I love it! 😀

There’s a studio near me that only deals with Japanese designs so I might see what they can come up with. Thing is they only do a minimum of a 3/4 sleeve so I might have to try and convince them to settle for doing a half! There’s a few good artists in Belfast though so I’ll prob try a few to see their interpretation of what I’m after.

Thanks LiquidCarbon. Unfortunately I’ve looked all over YouTube and google at every Japanese tattoo and never found a whole lot. But I do like the idea of blossoms forming shapes. I think I may be able to come up with something off that. Thanks again!

Any other suggestions?

Hi,
Glad you like the blossom idea. When you’re searching google, are you just looking at actual tattoos? I’ve found more inspiration looking at artwork and pictures as well. Also have you had considered maybe combining some of the more modern japanese styles of art/design

These are a few different pics showing the different styles Ive been looking at. If you want a few more PM with your email address and Ill send you more of what Ive found.

Hi
Im currently trying to come up with a plan for a japanese themed sleeve myself.

What about a google image search for japanese history and see what comes up, there’s a lot traditional art which contains some really cool stuff which you dont often see in tattoos. Or what about using the blossoms to form shapes/images?

Just a couple of ideas!
Good luck, hopefully in a few months we can compare finished arms!

Can I ask what age you are?

Chances are you’ll prob do more things that’ll hurt/dissapoint your mum, almost everyone does. I know that I was a pretty shitty son sometimes when I was younger, and my mum always forgave me (even though its sometime took a while!).

Your relationship with her obviously means a lot, other wise you wouldn’t be so upset, so you guys are clearly close. Bite the bullet and tell her. Yes she’ll prob be really upset, and you’ll feel like the worst son/daughter in the world, but she’s not gonna stop loving you because of a tattoo.

nice homer slippers !
im in not sure what i would do with it , it looks quite tribal looking so im unsure about the web idea .
i feel it might look a little too much like an add on to the tattoo .

i will have a think on this one 😀

Im currently having an artist friend of mine work on a tribal design for me which was orignally going to go on my other arm, which is bare exept for my other tattoo (wifes name on wrist).
But lookin at things now Ill probably put that tribal on the same arm as the spider, which’ll leave me a complete arm for the koi/japanese piece.

I’ve been having a good think today, and I’m probably just going to get the black retouched. I’ve been contemplating a koi somwhere and i’m possibly going to use the rest of the arm for that. Maybe try and get some waves quite close to the spider so it all flows together.
