Any opinions on greyscale tats vs color ones? I have a color one already, and my next one today is on the other side of that tattoo on the same arm but it's going to be greyscale. It's an old-style tattoo/idea so I figured it would be perfect black and my other tattoo with color would stick out more. I got a few more hours til I go and I can't decide if I'm doing the right thing by not having any color.
This place is SOLID with both by the way. Very talented artists, very pricey though

I definately think Black and Grey looks the best and is the most common really well done tattoo. The tattoo looks good, is clearly defined and easily recognisable.
Colour i think can only be done well by artists that really have a talent for it. Sometimes you see tats taht are jam packed with colour but it just looks like a bulge of crap and its not decypherable, However when you see some really good quality colour work it stands out.
Me personally i like Black and Grey.

Yeah, I was reading some opinions on the matter and a general consensus was that it depends on the tattoo itself.. which makes sense. So if I'm going for a more old style tat, greyscale should suit it perfectly.

Only have the Shading and Outlining done right now which looks pimp by it's self.. Gonna be sad to see the black go but...
really like the idea of the "Koi Fish Theme" except without a fucking everyday Koi u see thousands of times, Angler Fish did it for me a lot more.
Oh btw, Looking for shoutout ideas as far as Memorable Tatt's go.. Just lost my little sister recently and planning on doing something on my forarm in her memory..
I got a lot of ideas as far as personalizing it but I don't know about any type of cool artwork..
hook me up!

Thank you, I love it so far.. It wraps a lot already so I am eager as hell to get it finished up with water, and maybe some additions..
The girl that did it for me was only 20, a year younger than me.. And freshly had her license for only about 6 months or something like that.. Her license was literally still just a piece of paper on the desk.. haha, No frame yet.
She did great.

Just got my new one finished
I'll post it up later.. fucking love it. The shading is VERY well done. It cost me 250 but it was well worth the money. The only thing I'm adjusting to is having it right near a colored tattoo.. greyscale right next to color
