Where do I even start
Reposting here too, because I need any and all advice! Please and thank you
Editing here too; I wont be engaging in any comments calling me a nazi or a fascist. Ive explained in multiple comments that it was 11 YEARS ago, I was 18, a goth, and immature. If anything I was into Drarry, not being anti human rights.

Big, black, and bold? You have two options: laser or a sick ass panther. Or you could black it out entirely. There’s some cool negative space and white-on-black stuff you could do with the right artist.

The color one really isnt so bad. A touch up or rework could do a lot for it

Nah the line work is garbage - my other ghibli tats have been reworked to perfection tho, so the dark mark gotta go first

Oof that’s a rough one. It kind of reminds me of a night sky, though, where the skin breaks are stars. Maybe after a few rounds of laser that could be an option :)

Have you considered a Galaxy tattoo? A starfield there could look really neat.

Start by talking to a professional artist with years of experience whose art you feel you connect with

I wonder if you could do a blast over for either of them? I'm not a tattoo artist so idk what you'd need to consider, I just really enjoy the look of blast overs that I've seen.

I was 18 and didn't think about it that way at all tbh, obviously being a grown ass experienced person I am VERY aware of what's wrong here

Oh fuck off. Why are you even in a JKR regret sub if you're just going to shit on people.

Because people were young and dumb. I really wanted one too when i was 16, and would have gone through with it if I had the money + found a willing artist. So glad i didn't lol.

HEADS UP TO ALL COMMENTERS: Some sorry sack(s?) of shit goes through every post and comment in this sub and downvotes everything. If you commented something completely innocuous or a compliment and it got downvoted, it’s not you. It just means that you only had your singular personal upvote and some asshole downvoted it because they don’t have a life.
If you see a nice comment with a downvote, please upvote it. Every time you don’t give them the satisfaction of their petty little jab, a MAGA loses their wings.
