Nice. A slight downward angle could be cool.

I think the first pose would look the best

You might want to bring a few photos in to the artist, have them tell you what would look best or easier for them. Good luck! Hope you post a pic when its finished!

The artist wasn't down for the tortoise so I'm getting my dogs portrait. Can't complain about free.

@7oasty.. Oh no! (you know everyone reading this now wonders what that was LOL)

Maybe I'll just stick with my 1 tat and leave it at that!

That is a great cover up. I think it was wise decision not to get a tortoise there, that's a prime piece of real estate.
I have a tortoise tat but It's colorful and small, on the inside of my wrist. You can still get your tort tat as there is always room for more... :)

Thats a great cover-up. :)

Theelectraco - Bummer about not getting a tort tattoo, what kind of dog do you have? I'd love to see pics of the finished tat when you get it. :)

Shouldn't it be your choice of tattoo? Kind of odd even if it is free. I have a tortoise tattoo but not of any of my torts. Just an image I found online. ImageUploadedByTortForum1370995791.683233.jpg
