Pasq Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Hello everyone 👋 I'd like your opinion on a tattoo I recently had. I wanted to express the concept of going towards the unknown. In general I like it, but the head of the bird (that should represent a crow) does not really convince me. What would you do? Would you add/change anything or cover it up with something else?

warrug25 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 (edited) To me the tattoo looks good, and the head of the bird seems just like the head of any crow (which I can claim I know very well, since I've lived for seven years in a house which terrace was used by many crows - probably all the crows and ravens of the city, considering how many they were sometimes - as a haven 😂). What is it that does not convince you? Edited September 9, 2021 by warrug25 Pasq 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasq Posted September 10, 2021 Author Share Posted September 10, 2021 Thanks guys for your opinions. I actually like it and I studied quite a bit the design with my tattooist. The cover up option comes to my mind only during times of stress and overthinking, and instead of taking it out on people, I take it out on my tattoos 😂 Regarding the head, at the beginning I didn't notice anything strange, it probably all started when a couple of friends thought it was an eagle (An eagle?! Really?!?! 🤷🏻♂️). In their defense, beyond their ignorance about birds, I must say that we don't live in a place where crows and eagles are present 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warrug25 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 (edited) The misunderstanding and misidentification of tattoos is an event each tattooed person has been forced to endure at least once: most of the people I know keep telling me "What a nice TRUMPET you have on your arm!". Now, I don't want to be pedantic, but this is a trumpet: And this is a french horn, which is what I have tattooed on my forearm: What I want to say is that many people will misinterpret, misunderstand or misidentify your tattoo... but that does not mean it has any defect: it usually just means people don't know what they're talking about 😂 Edited September 10, 2021 by warrug25 Pasq 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
