Does anyone actually have a tattoo like this? (Tiny, colourful realism)

[SecretUsername46380]

I keep seeing this kind of thing online and I really want one, but I don't know if it's one of those Instagram trends that a tattoo artist would roll their eyes at because it's so much detail in a tiny space! If you have something similar, could I see it please?

I will add some pics, hopefully they will be approved (and therefore visible) soon:

It doesn't matter if the tattoo artist rolls their eyes at it .
They either agree to do the work or not .
BUT , tiny tats like that will lose their clarity within a few years and pale colours fade quickly .
I have one of a bee done about 25 years ago , it's about the size of a £2 coin and although I certainly don't regret having it done its just a blob now so I am glad I can easily cover it.

You’d need to find an artist that specialises in realism and fine line work. But as PP states, they won’t stay ‘fine’ forever and the pastel colours will fade quickly.

It's gorgeous when it's freshly done but those details and colours will fade and blur over time and probably quite quickly with it being small and intricate.

It's a shame because it's lovely but I'd not opt for a tattoo like that because I know it wouldn't stay lovely forever.

Ohh that's a very good point, thank you all! What about something bigger, like this? Would the level of detail still mean it looks a mess after 5-10 years? I just love them so much 😅

I bet you could get some awesome transfers that look like these. Use them for temporary decorations....matching the exact style with the occasion and what your wearing then switch it up again. I love a temporary tattoo.

Love this idea!!
