> Guidelines for Giving Feedback

Please consider the following when giving feedback on a member's tattoo:

Line work: Does the artist seem to have grasped the technique of applying smooth, consistent lines? Do the lines flow with no shakes, skips or blow-outs?

Fill: Are all color and black areas a consistent color?

Shading: Does the tattoo show smooth gradients and transition effectively from light to dark?

Color Harmony:
Does the tattoo have colors that compliment each other?

Placement/Size:
Does the tattoo seem to be the right size for the area chosen? Is it centered and lined up with any other work? Does it go with the flow of the body?

Design: How well does the overall design work? Does it have sound composition? Does it feel well thought out?

Feedback: What areas could be improved?

designs should always flow towards the front and center of the body.. looks alright though.. hard to tell with a small pic.

I didn't want to comment on this yet but I can't resist now. I won't comment on the work because as most of you know an unfinished tattoo is just that, unfinished. Hell I have a few large pieces out right now that are in the ugly phase but I know where I'm going with them. Props to you Eric for posting it in this unfinished state. I'm not sure I agree or even disagree with the placement, I have had alot people request me to put things on them backwards and there was just no talking them out of it. Maybe the guy wants a bear to watch his back tongue.gif . When I look at this piece I try to invision it finished and depending on how it's finished I think the placement may be justified. Taking into consideration of how the edge of the bears head will frame out and finish on the back of the arm and shoulder I think it may have been a good choice but hell there all just opinions anyway. The only people that know exactly why and how is Eric and his client, I say let's see it finished and see what happens.

with regard to the " its facing the wrong way " thing... sometimes when you flip or mirror an image it just looks wrong, even disproportionate. Respect to you Eric for posting and il look forward to seeing it completed
