I got i done sat night

Dont want to sound like a jerk or anything but, that is not the greatest work I have ever seen..... Actually it is just about the worst depiction of a leo I have seen yet..... I think you should go to a different artist for your next tat..... Sorry just being honest...... I have got a tone of ink and have gotten a couple of bad tats before I found the artist that does all my work now...... Lucky for me he was able to cover the bad tats I got with some real awesome work...... Some of the best tatto artists in the world come from NYC...... You should take a trip out here to get some work done......

what do you base this on? Its awesome looks just like it was suposed to. its not my first tat. The same guy will continue on my back. Its a pic i drew Looks just like the pic.

Well they just dont look like leopard geckos, atleast the one on the bottom doesnt..... The one on the top maybe in a way looks like one..... I base this on it looking like a kid drew it on, on having about 100 hours of tats on my body, and knowing a good artist from a not so good artist..... Hey this is just my opinion...... I could be wrong...... I did not want to offend you..... Just being honest like I said....... You wanted to know what people thought..... Were you expecting everyone to say it is awesome????

Well sir, for your information, I the artist, have been tattooing for over 10 years, and way over 100 hours on my own body myself. Don't worry, you will see more of MY work in upcoming magazines, I will definetly post what issues of what to buy!! Not only do I have and have bred leopard geckos, but I have also kept all other types of geckos as to know what they look like. When sombody brings you a picture, of what they want, that's what they want....and I will satisfy them if it takes that extra time to get it exactly like that picture. This was Bryans second tattoo and he did very well taking it for the size it was, I have lots of friends that tattoo, who love to watch me and pick up tips here and there so words do not hurt although i thought you would like my opinion. I have made a career out of my tattooing just to support my chondro habit and man you should see my collection!!

I did not post because I did not want to be rude, but I would have to agree. On the bottom gecko, the way the legs are positioned does not look natural. The blue around the eyes looks like the geckos are wearing eye shadow. the top gecko would be a stretch to say it resembles a leo. The tail does not look like any position that I have seen a tail position. The colors do not look realistic. To me, it is not a good tattoo, but if you like it then that is all that matters. you are the one that has to live with it.

You can never have just one gecko. Actually it is almost impossible to have two

Like i said before, it looks just like the pic. did. Oh for your info. those pics were taken from reptile mag., so i'm sure there position is natural. You must not have seen to many leos. The one on the top is a high yellow and the bottom is a hypo tang. My artist will continue to add more art to my back. And for the eye shadow part, havent you seen leos with that blue hugh above there eyes. Keep in mind its a fantasy type of tattoo. Anything i feel is wrong my artist will fix.

I think it's an awesome tattoo....The Leo's look like the one's I have. You guys must be blind! Nice Tatoo

yes, I have 19 geckos of my own so I've seen a few geckos.
Maybe I am taking it out of context with it being a fantasy type of tattoo. Also, it is a portion of the whole thing. Please post when more is done. I'd be interested in seeing the whole thing. Do you have a pic of what the whole thing will look like?

O.K. maybe the reason it might look unfinished, is like I said before this is his second tattoo, and those of you that have gotten tattoos, should know that on the side and back area, it is very tender. So I am proud of you Bryan for the hour and a half you took. As for the scenery I plan to do it free hand as I normally do my other tattoos. We will def. post the pictures when we get a few moe hours in the chair. but thanks for the compliments and or other comments stated, Thanks Michelle

Well my opologies to the artist..... If that is the pic he brought you then I think he should stick to letting an artist draw up his tats unless he wants deformed looking geckos on his body...... So he only sat for an hour and a half????? I sit for 5 hours in a clip..... Not that it makes me more of a man or anything...... Anyway, Maybe you the artist should alittle more selective on what you put on peoples bodies..... Especialy if you are going to be showing your work off for all to see..... If that was the only work of your I saw I would not get any work from you...... I never saw a leos tail do a 45 degree hook in the middle of it...... To me it look like crap...... And to the ones that think it look just like leos, they must have bought some deformed leos or dont own any at all......

Good point!! it will look a lot better when it is all done. No i dont have a pic of whats to be done. I will post when i add more to it Thank you for your opin.
