See that's the thing - I originally asked for an Oni mask and to include daffodils as a symbol of my nation - which is not too bizarre as it represents respect in Japan. The guy said he would rather do a skull of some sort and it went from there.... it was probably a mistake on my behalf for not just going to the artist I wanted the tattoo done by. The reason it was free because there was a delay in the design getting to me!

I was originally going to get a full Japanese 1/4 sleeve in western colours. Like the dude who plays cricket.

OK, thanks for your replies - have a good day. :)

I wasn't looking for different answers, just more opinions - as I had the feeling this place is more appropriate to post this kinda thing in. I'm going to have a different design made by a solid Japanese style tattoo artist, just looking for opinions of the overall concept and the mixing of styles :)

(PREVIOUSLY POSTED ON INITIATION) Hey So I was wanting to get a Celtic themed Japanese style 1/4 sleeve. I approached an artist called DVZ for a design, and they created this, free of charge. I have selected the artist in which i am getting it done by and the overall design will be altered probably quite significantly. I am wanting opinions of the concept, thanks :) Edited Friday at 02:21 PM by Gareth98

watcha think? :D

all you have to do is follow him then he will accept u pretty much instantly

True. But i'm getting a 1/4 sleeve done by https://www.instagram.com/daveswambo/?hl=en for around £400... and his work is pretty amazing

Artist's prices vary

1/4 sleeve for my first... i hear the arm doesnt hurt but still.. RIP

I made a thread below - with my design :)

Hey :) I'm not sure what kinda thing you're after but judging on what I've seen - i think there may be better out there.. not that i know much about this kinda thing :P There was an app created by a member of a different tattoo forum - it's a map of tattoo artist's near your location, it's for IOS and android i believe. Check it out: http://thebragartlist.mobuapps.london/ :D

Hello I am yet to get a tattoo but definitely know who i will get it done by! There is an artist pretty close to me called Dave Swambo: https://www.instagram.com/daveswambo/ Wondering if anybody has had a tattoo done by him? or i'm just looking for overall opinions of his work? Thanks

Appreciate it :) ye there is red shading in the skull but I agree with your statement, more Red would compliment it a lot more!
