    Should You Really Design Your Own Tattoo?
    There's lots of buzz as of late about generating your own |tattoo design. As usual there's positive & negative to this.

    A nice thing about about designing your own tattoo is that you will be assured of having a distinctive tattoo design & it will be meaningful to you.

    A con is that your tattoo design might stink.

    Sorry for the harsh words but this comes from years of being a a creative director & watching the behavior of clients. The designing part is the first place that a client will need to start cutting costs. Why? Because it is a a service than product so we will try to weasel out of paying for it. You can't cut production costs or the cost of tools, but you can decide not to pay someone for labour if you think you can do it yourself.

    This becomes even more common because secretly everyone thinks that we can design. we are all fashion design or interior design wannabes - our houses are the trendiest, our clothing is the most posh, our sense of design is beautiful .

    Now this may be true that deep inside we are all artists & stylish, but the truth is that these talents may be unhoned. It takes some knowledge of design principles & practice to be nice at design.

    Another con is that you might not know enough about the difficulties of tattoo design. This is where experience counts. A tattoo artist has to consider plenty of aspects when designing a tattoo - there's the color, the shape, size. Will it fit the location?

    If you aren't familiar with the tattoo design, then your tattoo might come out looking unprofessional. You might not be able to see it - but others will see it as being amateurish.

    But - a tattoo is something forever. Why go cheap on that? Some tattoos cost mere dollars to buy online. Other galleries have a monthly fee that costs as much as a movie. Surely you can invest that in something as important a tattoo - an expression of your soul.

    If you aren't concerned with the chance of ending up with an unpolished looking looking tattoo design in order to save a few bucks, then sure, go ahead. Perhaps a "naive art style" is the look you are going for. we can be nice if done correctly.

    Another suggestion is to co-create with a real tattoo artist. Take your artwork to a pro & have them neat it up it up.

    If you need to generate your own design, an easy thing to do is take parts of existing tattoo plans & put them together.

    Make sure to get a tattoo artist with strong creative skills & who knows how the design will play out as a tattoo. Then you can still have a personalized design that you designed yourself, but five that is gorgeous, skillfully drawn & not poorly executed.
