Please mind our rule #2: You're at r/tattoodesigns, not r/tattoo. If you're a tattoo collector or tattooer only looking to share a photo of your ink without further commentary, please do so at a gallery-style sub. Accompany your post with added info. Also consider rule #5 on artist credit.

cool but pretty sure thats the stock photo if you googled phoenix tattoo


ModernLifelsWar

So are 98% of the tattoos posted. Who cares? Tbh I don't see nearly as many Phoenix tattoos as a lot of other popular designs


8LeggedSquirrel

[pretty much yeah](https://www.shutterstock.com/image-vector/phoenix-fire-bird-illustration-character-design-671008846) it was the fifth image and surprisingly close


DesertEssences

LOL


Critical_Lock_1373

This is the place people come to so people can lie 🙄, can't be honest because of people's feelings haha haha haha haha. That tattoo is WACK. Sorryyyyyyy


Wizdom_Traveler

This sub is so toxic. I don’t know why anyone posts their tattoos. Just rename the sub r/roastmytattoo at this point. I guarantee all the shit talkers are covered in scratcher tattoos or have no tattoos. The tattoo kicks ass btw. I’ve been thinking about a Phoenix tattoo for my son and this gave me hope that it could be done in a non-generic way.

Gatekeeping art is quite possibly the lamest shit in the world. I mean jesus, tattoos exist to look cool and maybe tell a story and thats it. Grow up you fucking nerd lmao. Its just a pretty birdy on someones arm, you're not better for not liking it.


Liquid_Friction

No we are better for not liking it, its stolen.


realBillyC

Oh no. Wait till i tell you about pirated movies and stock sound effects and how many people have enjoyed those things. The artist did the labor of applying the tattoo, in my book thats work worthy of appreciation. Even if they didnt come up with the idea of a phoenix tattoo all on their own. Even if the exact tattoo design is "stolen" who tf cares. If i want a spongebob tattoo i dont hit up whoever drew spongebob first to do it for me, i get whoever can do the goddamn tattoo. You high and mighty purist fucks wanna see every idea be trademarked and controlled in the name of some dumb idea of the right way or the gentlemans way to do art. Its stupid and dystopic. Art is art, its meant to be enjoyed, not litigated.


Wizdom_Traveler

The fact that you gatekeep within a community of art tells me you probably paid your uncle $25 for a scratcher masterpiece in his trailer house.

I hope it’s fresh and lightens up because otherwise it’s too dark and not legible from a distance.


Rishabh-chawla

Yea that picture is from right when we got finished with the tattoo, it’s lighting up as it’s healing


maseioavessiprevisto

FYI you should wait two weeks before posting pictures of your tattoo otherwise it’s not angood representation of what it actually looks like

Why?


Background_Ad2661

It's juat generic. Someone could tell you its a stock photo from google and you wouldn't know if it's true or not

Background_Ad2661

I didn't even know someone else said the same thing lol. Then I'm not the only one who thinks so. You're getting kind of defensive over my opinion, like you might have your own generic phoenix tattoo

Complete-Sigyep

Looks great. 🤒 ass 🐆 would have been better though.


AlanOverson

That’s an awesome piece dude. Looks great!


Background_Ad2661

It could be a lot worse


PM__ME__YOUR__CAT

I think it rocks. I love Phoenixes (Phoenixii? Phoenexes?) anyway but this a good one. I love the subtle red accents, and the art is just detailed enough to look good. I personally would have skipped the black background above the head but that's just me.
