There was a lot to say about this album but some are from my collection and some are from others. There not so much as to get exactly whats drawn in the flash, but to put together ideas for your design that "you know what it is but have no way to explain it or compare to" Based on a variety of other artists including my own, shade styles, concepts, and size; all artwork, even fonts, can be modified and made to fit, wrap, fine tune, cover up and add on to, all you have to do is ask, but at least have an idea, not a compulsive "If thats how its stenciled then its too late to modify"
Just toss around placement of the tattoo and what you want added or subtracted, dark, light, white accented, minor color, full detail and will make it better for us to assess it for price, some places will charge you for being unprepared, and always look at the artists portfolio before you get work done because all the artists have great talents but everyones different and specialize in different art, even though other artists can do the same as the next, when an artist specifically specializes in what you're looking for, 99.9% of the time what you thought was going to be a pretty cool piece has allowed the artist to expand confidently into more detail and flare turning what you paid for, we'll say $200, would easily be $450 elsewhere because you let the artist do what the artist does best and the reaction from another overly pleased enthusiast… Priceless! lol
Anyway, enjoy and by all means post fresh ink, flash, toss ideas around and if anyone is stuck finding one idea from looking at at least 2-3 pieces that are tempting, just close your eyes and stop thinking about your character flaws and think about your great character traits, then post that trait on here and I personally have the ability to visualize emotion and characteristic into words and icons, or visual expressions and theres so many who have there take on it as well. I just ask of you though, try to stay away from getting something just because it looked cool on someone else and you want the same exact thing. Enjoy!!!
