Hey all! I'm struggling to figure out what I can fill this tattoo with, I don't want solid black though. The bottom line is being made into a point, but my tattoo artist said the gaps are too small to add a pattern and I'm not sure what to do. Any help is much appreciated.

edited this snapdragon vine with a moth on it, inspired by ellie’s tattoo from the last of us. any suggestions?

Ares God of War tattoo

Let me know what yall think!

I made this tattoo design for my friend ^^

My demon cat

Thinking of trying out this style for different tattoo designs. Any other animals/symbols I should look into?

Memorial for my mom. Too feminine or do i just own it. Exactly what i had in mind but it looks to be on a girls hand.

Does anyone know what is this art style called?

I know it's black work, but it seems like a different style

Watch ya step

My finger tats are goofy as hell. Is there any chance of covering it up with anything ?

Could this go on the back of the forearm or is it too round ?
