cltattooing Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Hi, welcome! I think your best bet is to reference from the source. We can always help you find an artist who would do a great job on the tattoo you're looking for. My suggestion is to do some research and find as many photos as you can of ancient Greek armor or old paintings of Greek battles and bring those in to your artist, let them know what sort of style you're looking for, what kind of mood you want through the piece, and just let them do their thing. When getting a tattoo, you are essentially hiring someone for their talent, vision, and creativity. Giving an artist a general idea while trusting them to follow through is the best way to get a totally fantastic tattoo. Let us know if you have any questions and I hope you enjoy it here! hogg and motsimus 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Welcome. Yep. Gather knowledge and references. Learn how to spot what an artist can or can't do, and figure out from there which one(s) can nail your vision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
