I would love to think of a good idea with landscape, trees, the moon. I think landscape tattoos look incredible and would love to get something done but don’t know how to go about thinking up something.

I would recommend talking to a couple different tattoo artist about it. There pros they can draw out the ideas you give them.

I personally don't have any, I used to think it would be a cool idea until I reached adulthood and realised that I get bored of things very quickly, and would probably get sick of it after about a week.
My brother is into them, but a couple of his didn't quite go as planned. He got a blue rose on his forearm, but it ended up looking quite a lot like a bruise, and one of a woman's face (this is not as weird as it seems) but he has quite hairy arms, so she now has a beard. The best bad tattoo story in my family is my mum's cousin getting a Chinese character done when those kinds of tattoos were the height of fashion, and a Chinese woman seeing it and running off screaming.

I think landscape tattoos look incredible and would love to get something done but don’t know how to go about thinking up something. Look on pinterest. I incorporated a couple different elements into my last tattoo, and found different tattoos on there, and showed them to my guy and he created a design from them.

No tattoos, but multiple piercings. Piercings are easier to change if you regret things, but I would like to get ink before I’m 40.
Had a really cool idea about getting a tattoo right where my grandfather got a bullet scar from WWII. Would like to get that at some point.

I have one big tattoo covering my upper back. I will say one thing, needles on the spine are a bitch.
I have ideas for a couple of more

I know my grandpa (died around 2005 or so) had at least 1 or 2 WWII Navy tattoos but I haven’t found any family photos showing them and I only have a vague memory of what they looked like. Mayyybe a traditional panther face, but not only was the tattoo faded so is my memory of it

Mayyybe a traditional panther face, but not only was the tattoo faded so is my memory of it Grandpa died in 2002, but he served 4-5 years in WWII. Stood up out of his tank, got shot in the arm. Wasn’t severe so they were like “Well, head back out chief!” EDIT: And something I learned years after the fact, my grandmother was married before the war and her first husband didn’t come home. So she remarried a really awesome dude (my grandpa) who had just come home from Europe. He met her at a Toronto university while he was studying geology. EDIT 2: and Grandpa would be mortified by th idea of me getting a tattoo because he liberated camps where tattoos were not a good thing.

Obviously getting kanji tattooed on you that has a bad/unexpected meaning can happen but a more likely mistake would be that the kanji has brush mark mistakes that render it without meaning.

Yes. I got one two years ago, and I plan on getting more.

Just one. My best friend and cowriter of over 25 years died in 2019, and in memory of him I got the greek letter Epsilon (his online name) tattooed over my heart. I was planning to get something else done in commemoration of a work we'd written together, possibly on my forearm, but Covid made me have to put that off until... well, god knows, really, given the situation here now.
Two things that surprised me were it not hurting as much as I anticipated (though I think the pectoral is a relatively "good" place to get one, it was just a kinda irritating burning sensation but not really painful as such), and that apparently no tattoo artists had the foggiest clue what a "greek letter Epsilon" was. I know Australia isn't the US with fraternities and such, but I didnt think it was that esoteric a bit of knowledge.
(Then again, the other day I commented on the computer system at Spec Savers being named Socrates, and the optometrist said "Yeah, the Greek god.", so maybe I just overestimate people. Or at least Australians.)

I don't have any ink. I've considered it a couple of times in my life but every time I've really thought about it, I just kept thinking about my dad's faded ones he had on his forearms (one each). By his own admission, they were done in the back of a Filipino cathouse in the 1950s and I'd imagine the ink would be of higher quality nowadays, but still. Also, I'm so against the grain in life, and they are mainstream now.

No, I'm too indecisive to commit to one.

It’s so weird to me that tats are so openly accepted now. Like going into the bank and seeing someone in a tank top with full sleeves is completely mind blowing to me. That would’ve been so unacceptable when I was a kid
