I know I'll get the normal 'I hate it', 'why would you do that' bullcrap but I got this done on Friday - not the most flattering picture but I love it.
I'm aware that at the moment the tattoo looks like two different tattoo's, but once I get the girl coloured I reckon it's gonna look a lot better; and the lines that run into the roses are tracing lines, not the actual tattoo. I took this picture like 5 minutes after it was done and didn't really want to scrub the lines off as it was a little bit sensitive funnily enough.

I like the stencil but it doesn't seem positioned very well & those tattoos don't seem to work together
are the roses supposed to be on her head like?

Originally I didn't plan on getting anything to go with the roses. I'm trying to think of ways I can incorporate them so it looks more flowing. Like I said, I'm hoping it looks a lot better once she's coloured in :)
maybe you could get another female head facing the opposite way, slightly bigger layered behind the other one & the roses being part of the 'flower head band' of the second bigger head

Hmm i dunno, I was more thinking of other things to sort of make it a 'leg sleeve' or just a thigh piece, know what I mean
ah it's on your leg
seems sweet then

Last time you posted it caused a storm of people saying they don't like your tat.
But I think it looks great, same as the last one :P

Lol yeah I know, I didn't think it'd clash so much when I got it done. Hoping that the colours I've chosen will bring it together and debating on some shading to bring it to one.

haha yeah I know, it was only a few people saying they didn't like it but end of the day, it's in my skin and I love it haa. But thanks!

I think it'll look fine once coloured, I've seen way worse tattoos on this forum
not that yours is bad, I like it and think it'll work out

I think it'll look a lot better once the sleeves completely done with other things in it. At the moment it looks a little random with the roses just plopped on top of her head. Once it's fully complete and coloured in I think it'll look decent :) Did the same artist do both the roses and the head? The head looks like it was drawn by a more experienced artists (although that could just be because it's not coloured in yet).
another rose behind the head would be a good filler i think
I'm looking forward to see what it's like when it's done. I agree that it mgiht just need the colour :P

i thought that too, which is why I think she needs more around the roses just to kind of let it fade I do the background as the head is a lot better

I go to the same shop but the owner did the girl and a guy that's just left did the roses, wishing I'd gotten the roses done by him now! I will definetely post when it's coloured. Not getting it done for about 2 months though because I'm supposed to be going on holiday next month so sun + swimming pools + tattoo = skanky leg tattoo.
But thanks a lot for the suggestions on how to tie to together! Only problem is i don't want a stupid amount of roses everywhere, especially if it doesn't end up working and it just looks like a florist has spat on my leg
It looks great, can't wait to see the finished piece.
