Lionheart is the name of a movie, a band, a Care Bear... you can Google Image search and find a ton of Lionheart images that combine Lion and Heart shapes.

In Polynesian tattoos there's a pattern that I think would fill the space pretty well with thin lines.

It's the one on the left, with a serie of stripes in diagonal, then serie of stripes following opposite diagonal, etc.. (Sorry I don't speak English and didn't find picture with only the pattern I was thinking about)
I had scars from gall bladder surgery and used this product to help. Also I had a boob scar from a biopsy and no one that enjoyed my boobs Beverly mentioned anything :) https://www.amazon.com/Mepitac-298400-Soft-Silicone-Tape/dp/B00ZF76K7K
It looks identical to a retractable utility knife blade. Be ready for a lot of people to assume that's what it is.
Oh I have that as a tanktop actually!
Seems like this exact pic is already a t-shirt design as well...
I was thinking of near a joint, where the bottom can end where the joint starts to move. Upper arm right above an elbow, lower leg right above the ankle, or upper leg right above the knee.
You can print temporary tattoos for relatively cheap and try them out.
How long go did you get the tattoo?
Your artist should have given you instructions on healing and soaps to use.
That being said I use Dove body wash and it’s great. Assuming you’re out of the healing phase, I also suggest Nivea in shower moisturizer. I don’t use it every day but it really makes the tattoo pop.

My sister in law fell asleep during her upper arm tattoo. It’s my favorite spot to get them because it’s like 1-2/10 pain. If you’re still worried I’d say you can pick up some numbing cream, apply it like an hour before your appointment and just tell your artist. I used this one for the second session of my back tat.
Next time offer to buy your friend something like this instead of wasting a valuable canvas space like the center of your arm

don’t use anything with too many hard lipids during your healing process such as coconut oil & any other fatty substance, that only offers as food for excelled bacterial growth, I would suggest using a good moisturizer that dries quickly as well as a wound healing antibacterial ointment that contains PPM Nano Silver, There’s a product called Silvex you can find easily at walmart or buy on amazon that works exceptionally well:

Honestly, have an artist design you one. I have this exact same print on some pillow covers for Halloween. https://www.amazon.com/Ueerdand-Halloween-Pillowcase-Thanksgiving-Decorations/dp/B07WPSF4T9/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=skeleton+pillow+covers&qid=1627348390&sprefix=skeleton+pi&sr=8-3
Add to it. It’s a great tattoo. If you cover it up I doubt it will look better. I would put a reclining fairy in their. [Cecily Barker Flower Fairies] is awesome inspiration. I hope the link works. Otherwise it’s worth looking up. You’ll need a first rate artist. They’ll have to transpose the fairy’s body positioning.
No worries it’s literally called a fabric medium and it mixes with acrylic paint to help it bind to fabric. I just ordered a basic one off amazon. Haven’t had any problems with it yet.

Yeah of course! I like the classic Ticonderoga for graphite.
And pens, I use ole reliable Micron
Hey guys! Completely new here and im not sure if this is even typical for the community, but my childhood dog Boo sadly had to be put down a bit over a month ago at 8 years old due to the progression of her cancer. Ive never considered a tattoo before but i cant get this one out of my mind. Im 20m so maybe on my shoulder or something? I was thinking of just a simple black stencil like this. Any thoughts or opinions are appreciated for sure!
