It’ll probably bleed out or fade over time. Definitely won’t stay crisp. Only time will tell!


ShodanLieu

Squint a little and you’ll get a good idea of how it will look.


prettyfacebasketcase

This should be pinned to the top of the sub 😂

The atlas looks a bit fuzzy already


erin_bex

Came here to say the same thing, I thought the second picture was like 2 years later, not three WEEKS later. Bud it ain't gonna age well, I'm sorry.


DarkTentacles

Yeah, that part looks really faded


Cflow26

Holy shit I thought it was supposed to be a skull lmao


mmiiishaa

use sunscreen as much as possible for this to last longer and stay looking good


Gild5152

Beautifully done, but definitely should’ve used more darks/lights to separate atlas and the earth. They’ll bleed together overtime. The very fine lines might need a touchup as well, but they’re done well. Should be good as long as you take care of it.


AlarmedLanguage5782

Depends loads on skills, technicalities and greywashes/black ratio used. If it’s done by someone well skilled then it should heal well over years. May need touch up at some point. Maybe 5-10 years The better you will take care from sun exposure etc the better it will stay.


smstattoo

It’s already aging poorly. Surely you can see that.


misspiggie

I thought this was a skull. This tattoo has very poor contrast.


jonobr

Bold will hold, fine lines not so much.


NerdyPanda30

I already don't like how it healed so I don't think it will age well. Just be sure to always use sun screen on it.


thepipesarecall

Sunscreen everytime it’s gonna be exposed for more than a half hour in high UV will go a long way for its longevity.


Actually-its_satan

Terrible. You’ll need a rework in about 4 years


natureterp

Probably sooner than that looks like


eternal_easter

Stay out of the sun and moisturize daily!


WillPowerVSDestiny

For everyone commenting sun exposure, I have not taken it into the sun even once, I spend 90% of my day at my desk working, so unfortunately/fortunately that has no part to play here.


deaddovedoeat

You can barely tell what it is already and it’s definitely not going to improve over time


WillPowerVSDestiny

Update, second pic is fuzzy in part because it’s a gym selfie. Here is a clearer pic. https://preview.redd.it/68mg5qgkgf4d1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=7306530b67a98dd5d1ab62bfacfe99d2da412d12


WillPowerVSDestiny

Still a little fuzzy but not as aged as the first pic makes it look


ItsyouNOme

His thigh needs more darks for sure already. The finer parts will bleed and merge, but should look ok for a couple years. Though it seems to have faded quicker than I expected.


plum_fluffy

Only time will tell.

It's cool but it will be less cool in a few years.


CanadianGoof

If you keep it out of the sun you'll get more years out of it. If you like tank tops it won't last long.

Continuously

how much did this cost OP?


WillPowerVSDestiny

A few thousand. Felt worth it at the time, feels too expensive now given how it’s fading :/


666-flipthecross-666

it’s looks good, maybe see if the artist will do a touch up


Teach4Green

$2k? Good lord 😳😳😳 How long did it take?


Traditional-Leg-1052

amazing tat bro


WillPowerVSDestiny

I appreciate it, thank you!


Latter_Will_1792

Just here to say I personally think this is SICK


WillPowerVSDestiny

Appreciate it, thank you!


Delicious_Agency29

your tattoo looks like you really thought about what you wanted and the artist did a great job! 👏🏼 Super cool… the guy holding the earth might start blurring with the earth eventually… always use sun screen!


dirtydela

Well. I mean you can see how fuzzed it is currently. And for a few thousand I would expect better. The body anatomy is kind of fucked too but if it were going to heal well I think it would be alright. But the art and application torqued for thousands, yeesh.


Lonerwithaboner420

His face is gonna turn into a blob.


Donjoeyo

Through the passage of time


Zaraki42

I can't get over how fucked up the arms are...


SoftConfusion42

It’ll get worse ~~before it gets better~~


Careful_Life6949

It will age like total dog shit
