It all depends on how big its going to be.

IMO opinion a good tattoo has a story, and it appears this one will. A tattoo that is just there because it looks cool is retarded in my book.

Originally I was going to get a full picture of the Arch Angel Michael on my shoulder... full biblical battle gear and everything. But after a few months of looking at it every day, I decided I didnt really want that. So I decided to do something that I personally designed -- something that had a little more meaning =) No one else will be able to say that they have it!
But for some reason it feels so.... incomplete. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 08-22-2007, 08:02 AM | #7 (permalink) | | ONE WAY Keeper of Knowledge Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: Confirmed Posts: 2,908 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 86 Thanked 229x in 171 Posts Gil: 29,358 Bank: 13,467 Total Gil: 42,824 Donate | Re: Tattoo Design... need opinions It could use some color, and something to fil the empty space to the right of the M. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 08-22-2007, 11:24 AM | #8 (permalink) | | The Architect Brain of Knowledge Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: Lincoln, UK Posts: 1,096 Style: Light - Version 5 My Mood: Thanks: 233 Thanked 138x in 98 Posts Gil: 164 Bank: 184,500 Total Gil: 184,665 Donate | Re: Tattoo Design... need opinions Small and simple are always good tattos, you thought of gettign your initials in Chineese/japanees symbols as they are very artistic I think.

I'm into minimal designs, they tend to be more impactful and striking. Even if you still feel unsatisfied you can use it as a springboard, an inspiration. A motif or symbol you feel is important to you it could fill what is missing. You'll know it's gold when your passion tells you. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | All times are GMT -8.
