Is it gonna be worth it?!

This is the tattoo I'm gonna get and i was wondering if you people had any opinions on it? like if i should add or change some stuff to make it even awesomer! so any ideas?

 

wow um...

damn...

 

haha i know its a shocker but yeah i think its awesome

 

its gonna be in the same place as the model has it. Mines gonna not be blurry tho... lol and awesome idea about the butterfly

 

can I respectfully suggest not getting it? that's the sort of tattoo you'll probably regret later in life. hey, you're body, not mine, but remember when you're 80 you'll still have it

 

uh, hate to point out bad stuff but you asked...
1) it's gonna be very expensive. it's big, it's detailed, and yer gonna have to have a GOOD artist to do it otherwise it's gonna look like crap, and if they fuck it up it's way too big for a cover up.
2) it's on yer neck. i know at the ripe ol age of 16 you think you'll never work a 'corporate' job - but are you ready to commit yerself? there's lots of non-corporate jobs that don't allow visible tattoos either. it's a big question, don't just dismiss it.
3) it's gonna hurt a lot - lots of spine action, anyplace you tattoo that's mostly just skin over bone is owwie area.

get an anatomy book for the artist to work from. and start savin yer pennies...

 

definitly going to cost alot of money and hurt like a mother,my firend just got the secound part of his tat done like three days ago because the whole thing at once was 200$ and his was just a trible tat that coverd the front of his bicep,

 

how about getting something original and that has meaning for you? Seems to me that this one is very cool but someone else has it and therefore has the coolness and that, if you get it too the coolness is somehow less...particularly that it looks like you would need a damn good tatooist to get it looking slightly good and even then with a few years of aging and stuff it is gonna just look real mushy...

 

really? i knew my hubby was chargin too little, i'm jackin up the prices.

 

i dont think you should for a few years.wait tell your alittle older and maybe get a small tat someware eles first.you will have to find a verry top notch artist to do that zipper tat.red fades fast.and like someone eles says take the artist photos of a medical book.and oh ya it will cost some coin.i got about $1600 in my sleeve and that zipper tat isnt much smaller than mine and the zipper tat will have more detail wich means more $$.tattoos are a big life change BIG.

oh wait on second look,thats alot smaller than my sleve ,but its still gonna cost alot.

 

it was the chinese symbol for dangrous with like a tribal disgen thats like 5" high and 2" long under it.

 

^^that sounds like a pretty simple design - i'm makin the prices too low. of course, my hubby likes to do certain types of tattoos and will do em cheaper just cuz he wants to do it, or if he likes somebody he'll do it for free or cost. he already did a bunch of the neighbors, just cuz he'll get in a mood and want to do something - heard of the story 'the illustrated man'? he's working on 'the illustrated neighborhood'... lol!!!

 

well see this dude who does tats is a crackhead/heroin addcit so hes got to supposrt the habit, my firend actuly tiped him with weed

 

so sad - well, at least he'll be able to support himself in the slammer when he gets there. lots of good ink flowin from the pen(itentiary)...

 

yeah, it may be smaller than yer sleeve, but necks usually get charged more because the skin is harder to tattoo. arms are easier.

 

oh i see,i didnt know that.maybee ill put off my plan for neck tat tell winter.

No guy is going to want to unzip your back... or even think about it for that matter. ITS NOT WORTH IT!!!

 

that will look...um....interesting....when you're an old lady. lol
I'm definitely going to go with no.

 

yes i do realize that its gonna look absolutly putred when i'm old but all tattoos (small or large) look horrible and all the guys i've shown and my boyfriend are totally willing to let me get it. But I'm gonna get a temprary blown on tattoo of it first just to see if i actually do want it.
