Just got a rib tattoo today and I think it’s crooked

[Annamiller1964]

I can’t tell whether it’s the curvature of my body but this new tattoo looks extremely crooked to me. I may be tweaking but obviously this is something that’s gonna be on my body forever.

looks fine, and even if it is not perfectly level, it's done ! 

and besides, those coordinates are just south of the equator, and that is a slightly different angle to the circumfrance of the perimetor equalization factor, so you're fine anyway.

It's fine. It was never going to be perfectly straight because it is on a curved body, and it is made my hand by a human. Just enjoy it and go get more (bigger) tattoos.

Just wear that bikini top and trust me, no one is looking at the tattoo. If they do see it, they'll think it looks fine.

It looks good.  I have two that are parallel to each other. And it depends on how I'm standing they tilt. But in the end it's on me and I'm glad I got them.  

I got one on my chest and had the artist redo the stencil 5 times till I was satisfied with the size, placement and levelness of it. He was very patient. Yet when I do anything that changes and that's one of the things I love about tattoos, they become part of our bodies and move and stretch and change over time. 

It makes me think of Ray Bradbury's 'Illustrated Man' great book btw.
