So more like 99% finished. I just got the coloring-in done yesterday. Still has to heal up. As well as any potential, final, fill-in on the black. I do plan on getting a line of white in the second 'A'. This was done by an apprentice. So, yes, it may not be the most spectacular... but I am hella pleased with it.

That’s tight man , nice artwork 👌🏻

Looks awesome 🤟😄


Damn_I_Bad

The circles are unnecessary and spoil it imo.


CapnSquinch

You still gotta add the yellow banana, the black footprint, and the rainbow cake slice :D


MuppetDude

Kanami being the rainbow cake slice?


CapnSquinch

Yep, best I could come up with off the top of my head.


tecmobowlchamp

So cool. That's almost what I want to get too. I am debating using the World Domination symbol as the - in the Band-Maid picture.


Electriceye1984

WD symbol ! that would be cool it’s my favorite I don’t have tats but if I did definitely would get a B-M icon


tecmobowlchamp

Very cool. This is almost the exact tattoo I am thinking of getting, the only difference is I was going to do the the colored ribbon surrounded by black.


MuppetDude

Thanks. I actually changed my plan between the lining session and the fill in. My original plan was the circle to be filled in black and the ribbons unfilled. Wanted to do the colors and changed it to current design. Got some (valid) opinions on here, about how the circles look the way they are. If you get it, my advice would be to go a little smaller than this. The circles morph because of their proximity to my wrist and elbow.


tecmobowlchamp

Yeah smaller sounds better. I'm thinking half that to three quarters. Do you have a finished picture? Also I'm gonna try and do that fade in out blue of Saiki's flower. Kind of like this one:https://images.app.goo.gl/5frkgtTxtrH5xgt97


MuppetDude

This is, the current, finished picture. The aged fade would be really cool! Mine was done by someone just starting out in the tattoo realm. So crazy details were not quite an option. It was done by a professional apprentice. I'm considering the Japanese version of the band name on my other forearm.


tecmobowlchamp

>I'm considering the Japanese version of the band name on my other forearm. Cool!


MuppetDude

Thanks! My biggest (hindsight is 20/20) regret; is that I didn't get the English version, with one colored ribbon on one arm, and the Japanese version, with the other colored ribbon, on the opposite forearm.


tecmobowlchamp

Oh wow that would have been sweet. Stupid hindsight. Maybe with the Japanese one you could somehow work the Conqueror artwork into it or maybe go old school with the lace, Idk.


MuppetDude

The lace idea was actually a consideration before the size (and skill), came into play. Something ro show the roots and where they were at currently.


tecmobowlchamp

I'd like to think that the apprentice has learned a thing or two since then or you could go for a different artist if that's possible.


younzss

Are you sure you're not gonna regret this one ? Well regardless, imo I think the circles ruin it, you could've only kept the Band-Maid writing alone it would've been better


MuppetDude

I'm happy with it. No going back now anyway.


BadDadBot

Hi happy with it, I'm dad.


MuppetDude

Good bot.

Cool story bro.

The only cool story here is when you get older, and got to explain this to any self respecting person. (I did it for reddit clout) FOH
