ok so i've been contemplating another tat. i wanted to do an ankh for awhile now but i dig the tribal look (yea so mainstream, i know) but this is wat i've put together. it'll go on the small of my back.... my question is, should i go for the thick black outlining (in the middle) or the single line outline (upper left corner) i'm not sure which one so i'd like some input. yay! thanks! :thumbsup:
(i kno the coloring is off, its just a rough draft :P)

The second one with the stronger contrast. You will be grateful for the definition that will stay with stronger bolder strokes in the design as time goes by. :)

I like the darker one too but it just depends on how much you can take. I just got ink on the small of my back this past weekend and that really is a pretty sensitive area. Trust me!

Full size across your back.
Why?
Bush is metal, that's why!

I agree...get the one w/ the darker lines. Better contrast, and the design will hold up better over time.

Hey, that's the one I have, :smile: j/k I like the one with the darker lines too. I'm hopefully getting my next one tomorrow, if my artist gets my design done, its only been a month I've been waiting for him to finish it. :sniffsnif Anybody know a good artist in Arizona.

In Arizona, everything is done by rifles and shotguns!
Go to Canada to get your tattoo!

I always thought it might be fun to have my entire body tattooed into a map: the proper ordnance survey deal, with hill contour lines and all.

It'll be fun right up until the needle goes in.
