She looks good, I dunno about the cat though. Can you tell us about why you chose this design?

Move the cat over so you can see some more cleavage on there, you'll thank me one day.

I don't see any issues with it. Obviously the tattoo will be more cleaned up and just have solid lines. But it should be fine.

I had no idea that cat was a real "thing" I always thought it was just something Redban made up for the Deathsquad logo...

Maneki Neko means Beckoning Cat in the Japanese culture (also Welcoming Cat, Lucky Cat, Money Cat). It is believed if the right paw is raised up it will bring goodluck and wealth, left paw up customer/people. It is popular in restaurants and drinking establishments but alot of people have them up near entrances to homes or just for decorations. I decided to go with the lucky charm paw up.

This is my first artwork tattoo, and being a spent a good enough time in Japan I wanted to get something to remember this amazing place. Geisha partly means art, and a symbol of beauty that is often unattainable. There's a hidden meaning in this tattoo also, girl who loves cats, but that's for a story to explain when I'm drunk or just emotional, but nonetheless, this tattoo has a meaning to me.

If you click on Gallery and then Taka's art you can see some of his work, he specializes in detailed art and traditional japanese tattoos.

I'd to know more about this "girl who loves cats" if there is more to it.

That's really cool though. I also wasn't aware that you were in Japan.

You don't think you'll regret having an anime styled/weeaboo tattoo when you're older?

I mean, it's a fine drawing. But as a tattoo? Oh jeeze.

That's more semirealistic western-styled, if anything.

2nd session is in 10 days, coloring and plum flower designs on the kimono.

I have no regrets, never will. It's artwork, and it tells a story of a time in my life. As you can tell, I went with the more traditional japanese look, the concept art looked more western-style as Raka_Putra pointed out. It turned out great. Can't wait til it's done.

It looks a lot better in that picture. Now she has a proper Asian face. Also the original picture made it seem like she was going to have anime hair, and she looks way better with natural hair.

What the f*** kind of thing is this to say to a person? I won't even go into how it doesn't make sense.

I feel like there is a much greater chance that you'll regret being an ignorant moron when you're older.

If you ever stop being one, that is.

Yeah, not sure what the colors are gonna be exactly. Japanese tattoo artist' choose the colors based on a person's self-being or something like that - Yakuza stuff.

If you're coming to Okinawa, I'll be here til April 28th but I'm guessing you're going to mainland Japan. If so, you'll have a blast in Tokyo. Make sure you go to all the districts.

I'll be leaving here and off to Vandenberg AFB, CA for 3 years!
