Tattoo.

I'm getting one involving my sister.

I am not sure exactly what I wanna go about but tonight and tomorrow I am going to start designing and brainstorming in Photoshop.

Any ideas?

P.S.
For those who don't know my sister was killed in action serving in Beji, Iraq.

When my grandpa died my mom got a portrait of him on her leg. That's an idea.

 

I'd get one that says RIP Rachael, you'll never be forgotten <3.

 

Fucking senceless war, Respect to you, your family and most definatly her.


Anywho, I dont know what your taste is. But whatever you get make sure its what you want, dont let the tattoo'ist govern what you want, make sure you want it because it'll be on you forever.

GL getting that tattoo, definatly take pics when you get it because I want to see maybe get some idea's for my father that passed.

 

I'd go with this idea, it seems most legent.

 

You can look at some of Kat Von D's portrait work

shes speicalizes in that genre, shes really good you may get some ideas off her work

hope your dealing okay with your loss too..

 

Senseless? Was the war started for no reason? Not even for the wrong reasons? GTFO.
And why do you respect people who willing fight in senseless wars, thereby contributing to the killing of people for absolutely no reason?
You're seriously screwed up...

Anyhow - back on topic. Aside from me being against tattoos, you should make it fairly simple. Firstly, try to find the best picture you can of her to use as a reference...

Back off topic,
look at this tattoo:

I would get her name in between angel wings.

Something like:

Thanks for the ideas guys. I am seriously thinking about basing my tattoo off of Boddah1's idea.

She is an Angel. I will be posting updates on my photoshop work whenever it comes to light.

Keep the suggestions coming people, I appreciate the help more than you guys will ever know.

 

I like the idea with the wings, but what to put in between..
Id also get it on my upper back.
Goodluck on your desicion.

 

You should put like heavens gates with her name across it

 

Put her name in it of course, and maybe RIP Birthday-day she passed away.

 

or get the best picture you can of her and have the tattooist tattoo her right above your heart. it will be simple, yet elegant. also maybe have her name or maybe the year she lived between underneath.

somethings like this kinda

 

I'd Say, get her name in a really cool font in a small Love Heart on your arm. Or on your back and make it really, really big.

 

I like the angel wings idea.

 

Well I can tell you guys this much;

I am just getting ideas and concepts for now. Once I have an idea I'll be pouring countless hours into photoshop to see if I can't make something nobody else has that will even come close to me.

Still thinking about it, but excellent ideas.

 

ya the angel wings idea is pretty cool, you can add her name or something

 

angel wings coming out a heart with her name in the heart

 

i'd go with the angel one it looks cool hehe
and make it unique in ur own way i say lol

Goodluck with it man
