Tattoo ideas?

I’m considering getting my first tattoo in the near future and I’ve been searching all over for ideas.

Google searches for tattoos, image searches, browsing through deviantart.com, comic books, I’m running out of ideas.

I don’t want to rush into it, but I’m trying to do something original, I know most of you here don’t know me, or what I’m into, but if you’ve considered an original tattoo, what have you thought about? I don’t want to steal your designs, just looking for ideas.

Answer #1

well, judging by your screen name, you seem to be a mixture of country and punk (just like me). what I suggest is this: a skull and crossbones with a cowboy hat. its a mixture of both, which matches your personality, hopefully. let me know if it helps.

I work at a tattoo shop and the best thing to do first is think about your interests and print out some pics you like. Then go to a local tattoo shop. Make sure you are in a clean friendly shop otherwise the people will not be helpful. Take a look around and get some more ideas. Do not bother the artists or floor walkers if the shop is busy. Try to go at a slow time and make sure to tell the person helping you that you are not getting a tattoo that day. Show them the pics and the stuff you like in the shop. They rarely draw things for free. So you can leave a deposit with them and set up a appointment to come check out what he draws up on another day. If you go to a good shop when you come back youi will most likely love it and want to get it done. Keep in mind that the more detailthe bigger the tat has to be. Plus you can get them in color or black and gray. Most shops also have portfolios of their artists so check them out and keep in mind the kind of art work you are looking for. Hope this all helps!

Answer #3

something that has a lot of sentimental value, that you would never regret getting!.. I like quotes and stuff… I have a bible scripture… but make sure you put a lot of thought into it, and put it in the right spot… something very unique and creative…

Answer #4

Tatoos are forever…so make sure it’s you…try non permanent ones first… because when you are 80 years old it may not look the same… google some images…see how they look…it’s all about the artist anyway…

Answer #5

If you want something original than searching for one on the internet isn’t going to help you - you’ll have to think of an idea and draw it out or get someone else to draw it out. Just think of something that has a lot of meaning to you and always will. If you get one that’s on the internet, chances are tons of people already have it done.
