My daughter got her first tattoo, went big for her first time. Sat like a champ for 4 hours. Enjoyed saying "I told you so" when she said it hurt more than she thought it would 😅

I'm located in central Iowa and looking for a tattoo artist who specializes in something similar to this. Maybe realistic floral or something along those lines. Any recommendations?

This one was so fun to do. The client wanted an anime-style piece but with realistic facial details — freckles, the slight asymmetry in her gaze, the texture in the hair. Keeping that balance between illustration and realism is always a challenge but that’s exactly what I love about this style.

The pink heart was her idea and it ended up being the perfect frame for the whole composition.

I want to cover up my Harry Potter tattoo. I’m wondering if I am going to have to get it lasered first or if this is able to be covered? I have a number of ideas of things I would want, but I honestly just want it covered.

Long story short, I was watching the movie “A working man” and a woman had this type of tattoo down her face from her lips and I thought it looked sick as fuck, I thought it would look dope if it was paired with a black Labret ring.

But I didn’t know if this tattoo had a specific meaning, I’ve never had tattoos before and I don’t understand a whole lot about them as far as meanings and such.

I got this tattoo not too long ago, these were taken just after the session ( i had the moth as well as flower piece done in a sitting ) and I feel like the artist placed it too close to my adventure froggie. I’ve been told if I fill out my arm a bit more (I intend too) it will fill better this way. What do you guys think?

Ash from Third Eye Tattoo in Vancouver, BC re-inked one of my older tattoos of a wolf howling with a yin yang / a great wave during a full moon in the middle.

What do you think?

10/10 would not recommend 🫠

i dont tattoo in the style anymore but am proud of this one <3

My tattoo looks faded since it healed 4 years ago, me and my best friend got matching tattoos. What do you recommend I do to fix this issue?

i’m looking to get a full sleeve done on my arm but can’t seem to think what to put in these gaps below the band any suggestions would be appreciated thanks

I did a random Pokémon tattoo challenge with my friend and I think mine is a little feminine but I just need advice on how it looks.

New tattoo, no edits, no ai, no filters.
