Tattoo idea

M3-to-STI · 06-19-2008, 01:23 PM

I am thinking about doing a sleeve on my right arm. My wife and I love champagne, we drink all different types and like to experiment.

My idea is this: A champagne bottle on my right arm, with the cork popping out, and bubbles all around my arm creating the sleeve.

Input?

Nothing says high class drunk like a champagne tattoo!
Oh wait...

Honestly I am not a big fan of tattoos, so I would recommend against all but the most meaningful and significant. I am pretty sure enjoying sparkling whites from a particular region of France is not one of those things.

The bubbles might be able to be incorporated into something but I'd be hesitant to throw a bottle of alcohol on my arm - I just can't see it looking good.

no, don't do it.
tattoos should be meaningful, not alcohol.

Experiment how? Just kidding. Anything can look good. You just need a damn good artist.

who cares if its meaningful its stuck on your body forever and if you dont like it s.o.l! i have 5 tattoos and only one means something to me and i dont regret any of them!

sounds gay. Just imagine answering the question: " do you really like champagne then?" for the rest of your life......

^^^ good point. I am thinking about just hte cork now.

First of all, if it's what you want, get it.

I just wanted to put it out there that if you did end up going with the original design that you thought of, you'd have like a million bubbles on your arm. That bottle isn't going to take up your whole arm so really the bottom half of your arm or so would be all bubbles. If you take a look at most sleeves it's a bunch of different things with a common theme (sometimes, not always). Just seems like it would be too much for the entire bottom of your arm to be a bunch of bubbles.

Why not just do a half sleeve?
