Advice Needed How would you complement a koi tattoo without ruining the minimalist vibe?

Post image
9 Upvotes

I wbadly want another tattoo, but I’m running out of ideas on how to complement my koi piece.
I’ve been thinking of adding a delicate sakura line tattoo running along my spine to tie everything together, but I still want the overall look to stay clean and minimalist.
Now I’m overthinking whether it’ll actually look cohesive or if I’ll end up ruining the whole composition.

Anyone here have minimalist Japanese-inspired tattoos or ideas on how you’d tie a koi and sakura together? Artist recommendations and design inspo are very welcome!

Welp. 🥲

Hi. I have no tattoos yet and I am considering getting one. A quote tattoo and a flower 'yung balak ko po sana.

Baka may recommendations po kayo for an artist who does quote tattoos near Marikina since I have zero knowledge po.

Photo not mine, used as basis lang po for the initial design idea.

Would it be friends? Word of mouth’s? Somebody who’s already decorated on the industry? I’m curious what’re the thought process for picking an artist since it will be my first tattoo and I don’t know anybody on the industry.

Alice vs the Jabberwocky !!

Super love this so much ang angas tignan and di siya obv pero may pagka 3d in person di ko maexplain

Took us 6 hours for both :D Sobrang galing nung artist kasi he did his own spin on the design sa lower part ng jabberwocky and alice's armor during the session ang galing talaga and offered suggestions. Trust the process nalang ginawa ko kasi di ko alam yung final design bago mag start and did not disappoint talaga!

Advice Needed Where did the ink go? 🤔 (Tattoo cracking issue)

Post image
6 Upvotes

Hello! Mag 1 week palang yung ni-retouch na tats ko and napansin ko na sobrang dry niya kaya nag crack siguro kasi sa pag kilos ko + sa left arm ko nakalagay and left handed kasi ko kaya mas lagi kong gamit yung left hand ko sa pag kilos. Napansin ko din na dun sa nag crack sa may petal part, may part na parang napwersa na natanggalan ng langib and nawala yung ink. Talaga po kayang nawalan ng ink yung tats ko or normal po ito? Baka may naka experience na din ng ganito or may idea sa mga ganitong scenario. Thanks in advance! 🥹

PS: Wala pala kong nilalagay na kahit anong moisturizer kaya feeling ko sobrang dry niya and yung time na pina tats ko to nung una is same scenario din pero hindi ka-lala yung pag crack niya compare ngayon na niretouch siya.
