Tattoo idea.

If I was gunna get it anywhere, either back of my shoulder or something small by the ear maybe

 

I agree to get the DOB in one of the black spots

 

sorry for your loss

my opinion is to get a high quality frame with brush painted photo of her.
for your home And a necklace with a bug type crafted from the inside with her name and (date of birth to death)

Good luck

 

First of all I'm so sorry to hear that.

You've got to think about that when you're 80 years old, it will still be as meaningful as the day you got it, because you in fact originally got it for a reason; for her. I think it's a beautiful and wonderful idea.

Have you ever seen a ladybug during flight, it's not as lady (Fag:like) as you think. They look just plain creepy. Also what if you inverted the colors of your typical lady bug, black as the main base and red dot's. I found a few different pictures from a more male like perspective so I hope these help.

 

That top example is horrendous.

 

I don't think you should get the tattoo. Just because there was a girl you were friends with and she suddenly passed away doesn't mean you should ink your skin permanently just to remember her. That is like the ultimate beta whiteknighting. Think about it, every girl that you meet from now on will ask you about the tattoo, and what will you say? "Oh lol I was obsessed with this one girl and her name was Ladybug so I figured I would get a tattoo of ladybug" /Cringe.

 

Ambigrams tattoo

what are ambigrams?
ambigrams are tattoo lettering works of art that can be read both forward and upside-down. they make the perfect lettering tattoo design!

 

Honestly I think you should just be a bad ass and just get a normal lady bug, who fucking cares if it looks girly, its for someone that made and impact on your life.

or.. have you thought about these types of art? I could'nt find a lady bug but im sure someone could rdaw one up.

 

Damn I adore this one :O

 

Thats amazing man.

 

i really want to get a tattoo done like that

 

But she played runescape dude. We lost a good one.

 

How about getting a tattoo where a ladybug ascends into the sky in a white/gold light, could be slightly transparent, too. Just because a tattoo may seem gay, it does not mean that it is.

Tattoos have a greater meaning beyond being a set of ink imprinted on your body. Tattoos resemble memories, feelings and even people you have lost. Never forget that.

If you really do feel like you'll be mocked for wanting an everlasting image to display for the sorrows you've been through, then don't bother doing it at all. You shouldn't be ashamed of something that is so beautiful.
