My first tattoo

#Art #Tattoo

Finally, the time has come! I managed to take the step and get that first tattoo done. This is something I've been thinking about for a good 3 years myself and am happy to start 2022 with my first ink. I chose not to start with something small, but something that really lies with me. If you were able to see some of my own blogs and designs, you know that I like to make something with deer or more specifically the Red Deer. This is due to the antlers, which I think looks very beautiful and elegant. In addition, they also use this in their battles. I myself also plan to incorporate it into my series, World of Alvergar. But I want to save the Red Deer for special occasion.

My Tattoo!

After that nice introduction, it's also time to show the whole thing! It's quite similar to the deer I had signed for a sign challenge last year. At that time I knew I wanted to put this tattoo, but how exactly?

For a while I was thinking about a realistic deer, geometric it and also a cute cartoon variation of a deer. But since I don't want to be full of just deer, I chose to do it 50/50. Partly geometric because I also love these clean lines and that style and partly realistic.

The tattoo was freshly put in the photo on the right and so the colors are still very dark black. After 4 weeks of healing and care, the color becomes less heart and rather a dark gray color. Anyway, I am very happy with the result and now a week later I still don't regret it! In fact, I have the idea that it was always there.
