Hey, guys.
I'm looking for some king of valkyrie wing tattoo - like the ones in Max Payne movie.
It will be my first tattoo, and I really like angels tattoos, wings, everything related to angels.

Here is one of the tattoos in Max Payne

If I show what I want to the artist, he would be able to make a tattoo from it, right?

I definitly agree..run! Were you looking to get the same exact wing/s in the same location? My opinion is that the wings could definitly be done better than the picture you provided and think about the location..yea wrist tattoos are a popular fad but u also need to think of your future (jobs n such) especially if it moves up onto your hand/thumb area..but hey what do I know I'm a tattoo newbie too haha..just my opinion :lol:

Ok guys, I just never been in tattoo studio.
I know the wing from the picture is simple, but I guess I will need bigger picture of it.
There is no problem with these tattoos here where I live. It's a wing, nothing shocking... :wink:
Can someone give me more similar tattoo pictures like the one above please?

you definitely want to be careful with locations like that. i love ink there and am debating whether its worth it to have to wear long sleeves or not.

Do you actually want it to go onto the palm like that? coz that shit will drop straight out.

My point wasn't that a wing is shocking..it's the fact that is on your wrist n maybe evn your hand/thumb..in where you live doesn't make any difference..I live in socal n there are places here that will not hire you if u have exposed tatoos and tattoos are very excepted here compared to some areas..just saying be careful of the location and longevity of the tattoo on your hand

Ok, thanks. I will wait some time. I have to clear up the design of the wing, because in the screencaps some part of the tattoo it's not visible. May be I will go to the tattoo studio after new year. It's better to do the tattoo in winter, is it?

I think she means that tattooing on the palm like that, the ink will fade/blur pretty quickly, thus making a shitty looking tattoo.

I don't think it matters what time of the year you get tattooed. I started my sleeve in Nov last year and just finished this summer. In my opinion it was easier to heal when I did not have to wear a jacket because it was so damn cold.

Good luck on getting inked. Post a picture once you get it.
