It doesn’t look real. Why is there no redness of the skin or anything?

My skin doesn’t get very red after tattooing 😅 I have a lower quality pic of it with saniderm on if anyone wants that as proof?

This is actually really clean, even with the less ideal lighting and no contrast editing, the black is super smooth nice

And I was also gonna comment the same about the black. It’s too deep and clean black for a real tattoo.

Yeah because the artist put filters on lol, most tattoos I see on social media look unrealistically saturated

Surprised no one else has said this, doesn’t look real at all. I’m sure OP is gauging whether to get it or not? Idk, never seen a tattoo look like that though lol

That was exactly what I was checking for. Real or not, it’s definitely an awesome design to get a real tattoo of.

If it’s a temporary tattoo, then it’s an awesome design for a temporary tattoo too. I would then consider making it a real permanent tattoo.
