Thinking of getting this tattoo

    Why would you get that one? Somebody already has it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,431 ✭✭✭rottie 11


    Because I like it. But I'd change it a bit anyway

    Looks like a lot of work. I'm not gonna give you a ballpark, but it won't be cheap.
    Then you need an artist that can do this particular one. That will be a challenge in itself.
    I'd suggest bring a big photo and ask around local places to see if they've done something similar before. Get a quote.

    I know it wouldn't be cheap but would you be talking 3 or 400 ? My brother gets his tattoos done in cork, not sure of his name now but hes supposed be very good

    Go around the artists with a pic and get a quote, it's the best way to find out how much you need to save up.

    Tbh, I wouldn't go with that design but that's me.
    Maybe choose a smaller and simpler design, it will be cheaper too.

    Could be that it's not time for you to get a tattoo then. I wouldn't try to force it for the sake of getting a tattoo.

    was about to say something similar, yeah some people like me put **** all though into tattoos and just get stuff we like but others need to have that spark of oooohhh I want that and you seem to be that type so just hold off till ya get it, and really be at least willing to spend 500 on ink, so if it does come as less it's a good thing

    I would think a good method of choosing a tatoo is to find one you like and put a picture on your wall where you will see it everyday numerous times. After a year to 18 months if you still like it then go for it.

    The one in the OP looks cool but I think it could look awful unless it was done properly.

    I got the back of my knee done because it filled the space nicely. Literally thought of it in the morning, had it done by the evening!

    I know I want tattoos. There's no doubt about that , I want a sleeve eventually. But I just want to get the right ones. Say if I got a soccer club crest on my forearm , would it be easy enough to blend it in with completely different things in the future?
