Does this look like it’s scarring?

The left flipper and some bits near the middle seem to be a little red after 2 weeks of healing. I have eczema so I know it’s probably going to take longer and I have more risk of scarring but the rest of it seems to have healed well (albeit slightly patchy but that’s a different issue for another time) The bits that are red also happen to be the bits that were bleeding the most during the process. This is my first tattoo so not sure what I should be expecting

Could someone help me by finishing this art? Needs shaded and the flowers drew

What do you think about this tatto?(find on internet)

I fond on internet, liked and gonna do this week, but my friends say its ugly.

3 months after getting tattoo I still don’t like it

I got this tattoo done 3 months ago, I love the design as it’s very meaningful to me but I don’t like the way it’s done.. I tried giving it time to let it grow on me and don’t think it’s a really shitty tattoo but it’s not what I imagined and this is really bothering me.. The artist is very reputable and I paid $1600 for it (8hrs of work), it’s a statue tattoo of Atlas from greek mythology. I hate the amount of black filling around it, especially at the top. I think it looks too chunky for it to look like a statue and that it’s missing detail. What would be the most logical thing to do at this point?

Mostly healed. Done by me. Pittsburgh pa.

What do i get for the other side of my forearm? Something that looks with this one. It can be ANYTHING portrait or lot of different stuff etc.

I have no idea how to go about covering my scars, any ideas or tips?

I have these two big scar blobs and I have no idea how cover ups work. I don’t really have any ideas with designs, especially considering that my scars are wonky and uneven. Are there certain styles/designs that work best for cover ups? I really want something that is clean with not too much heavy work. Considering how far apart and big they are, i’m assuming it’s going go be a larger tattoo. How do i go about this? I am completely lost.

My new prize winning hog!

How to credit an artist?

An on-line friend and protector of mine is no longer with us, and I'd like to use her profile image for a memorial tattoo. She got it from a book called 'Redwall,' which I'm not familiar with. Do I have an ethical obligation to the illustrator if I use their art? How would I go about compensating them? Would a professional tattoo artist lose respect for me if I made this request? Thanks for your help!

What would you add to this?

Love my first tattoo just stuck on how to add to it, thinking about patchworking in a number of other designs in the same style from the same artist but feel like maybe the astronaut is too big to patchwork around
