I design tattoos.

**JoeyV** · 7-2-09, 22:13

Well, in the past couple of weeks, I've had a few people ask me to draw them a few designs for tattoos, or mix a few items for tattoos. So I'm offering this to you guys, If anyone has anything they want put on paper IN A TATTOOABLE FORM, let me know, and I'll see what I can do for you. Remember, too much detail won't tattoo easily if it's too small and I don't want to design things just for [shizzle]s and giggles. If you actually plan on getting a tattoo, I'll do it though!

Here are a few of the designs I've done recently:

Mine

For the Feen

An older one of mine

My friend, Joey's futur tattoo:

I will update with more designs/examples as I get them done for you guys.

*Note* Designing Tattoos is something that I do by hand because things done on a computer(I.E. in photoshop) do not represent how tattoos are actually done and I personally prefer the "feel" of a hand designed tat.

I like your flames..I draw them almost the same way!

I've got an idea, but i'm drawing it out on paper. If I scan it and send it to you, could you touch it up/make it better detail for me? I've been an artist, but not one on as much detail as you!

basically, i draw it, and you re-draw it and add that 'touch'

also, i wont have "joey" tatted on me either... haha!

**JoeyV** · 7-2-09, 22:21

Sure man, send me it, and I'll make it tattooable and post it up here.

**Jason** · 7-2-09, 22:36

cool! It might be a few days, but i'll get it to you.

Basically it's a zodiac sign with a tribal surrounding it, but it's not really tribal.. it has flames around it! since we draw them the same, i'm sure it will turn out good!

My thing with tatoo's... I don't have ink put on me to have ink put on me. I've got my daughters name starting on my right shoulder blade, wrapping around my back, and ends up about 2" from my belly button. So it will go with that basically..

I'll send it to you when I get done!

**JoeyV** · 7-2-09, 22:42

That's cool! I'll see what I can do. And to add to your thoughts, I agree. The tattoos I get all have a reason. I just have an idea about how much I want

see, that's how I am too, but I don't want that many! One of my friends had sleeves done, and his shins done too, and to me... that's just toooo much!

I understand your body is a blank canvas, and to each their own! Look at Lambera! That body suit is bad ass!!! Nothing I would do though!

i might.
ive been working/drawing on a sleeve with something like this in it..
so yes this is a serious request.

**JoeyV** · 7-4-09, 22:03

Alrighty then mister Dutch, I'll draw this up either tonight or tomorrow.

**JoeyV** · 7-5-09, 17:37

Here you go guys. Wasn't easy to come up with an "original" way to design an outline/silhouette, but this is what I came up with. Let me know what you think and what you'd like changed/modified so I can edit the drawing and put it in the first post as part of my "portfolio"

**tyler886** · 7-5-09, 22:09

How detailed can you draw? Ive had a couple different artists draw what Ive requested and I havent been able to get something I want yet. I want to get a tattoo of a 426 hemi cutaway with my parents zodiac signs being blown through a supercharger and my sign coming out the exhaust in the fumes.

If it can fit, I want it as a half sleeve, if not its going on my rib cage with all other wrenches/tools around it.

I can draw very detailed, but that does not mean it will be what you want. Keep in mind I will draw it in a tattooable manor. Too much detail will make it hard to tattoo because with time, the ink "spreads" through your skin, so too many fine lines will smudge. From the way you're describing this, you would need this to be at LEAST the size of your back, else most of the fine lines and details of the motor will simply end up smeared with the years.
