fwag87 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Hi all My nephew, decided to get his first tattoo and didn't check the design. It's a simple semi colon but it's backwards. I haven't told him yet, just his mum who has asked me to talk to him and maybe try and get it changed/ added to to make it look like its supposed to be that way. What a plum he is. Any design ideas from you creative bunch? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 I would just leave it alone, there is no fixing it, messing with it will just F*** it up. think of it as unique. Hogrider and oboogie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogrider Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 You can’t fix stupid and you can’t fix that tattoo. Let it heal then look for someone who specializes in cover ups. oboogie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattwall92 Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 If over time you still don't like it, it's small enough to cover up with no problems. May I ask opinions please, with my arm relaxed my tattoo looks great but as soon as I lift my arm up or twist it slightly it goes wonky. Is this expected? Should I be as 'gutted' as I am with the placement? I guess if I wanted it to look in the perfect position when my arm is up and twisted it wouldn't look right when relaxed? Thanks all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hogrider Posted June 20, 2023 Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) @Mattwall92 Not trying to be harsh, but I think you have unrealistic expectations. Your skin twists and stretches as you move. Of course the image will be affected. Enjoy your tattoo. Get more. Edited June 20, 2023 by Hogrider Dan and oboogie 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not paper. Of course it moves. Just get more tattoos. Hogrider and Mattwall92 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
