Summary:
Some simple/basic additions to a Chinese phrase which I was hoping to have on my upper chest.
Description:
This is my first time using this website but the idea seems perfect. I already have the Chinese phrase which I was going to get done next week but decided I would try it on this site first, and if all goes well me, my girlfriend and my brothers will use it for some bigger, better tattoos as I don't like the idea of just walking into a shop and choosing a design.
I was wondering what ideas people might have to spice up this tattoo a little. Some little extra additions to it to make it more unique/fancy.
The images I will provide include the Chinese text, my attempt at making it a bit curved for my chest as I think that is the standard way to go with upper chest tattoos. Also there is a star and pixelated love heart which I already have on the front on each shoulder so this new tattoo will kinda go inbetween them. So I don't know if they could be incorporated someone (i.e mini versions) or maybe stay away from them altogether...I am open for suggestion.
I am not an expert with tattoos so any little additions you think would work. Some shading? Shadows? Little things around it? I don't know but please don't spend too much time on this as it is kinda a test run.

Thankyou!
Sorry.
I do actually love Chinese tattoos that go vertically down the back, but for me I am going to leave my back and legs tattoo-free. But I think my girlfriend might go for something like that (she is Thai).
I wanted it across my chest as a lot of people have English text across their chest and I have been thinking for a while I wanted something like that...but not English. So I went for the Chinese as I am quite in love with all things Chinese. I am open to suggestion about other fonts/typeface etc as the place where I got the phrase didn't have many to choose from. I will get the romanization of it up soon.
Thankyou very much :)
I think it's interesting to do a Tattoo with Chinese, however, I hope that you haven't tattooed the Chinese yet because I think the typeface (font) you chose doesn't look very cool. Also, do you know the meaning of that phrase? Just wanted to make sure because I see lots of non-Chinese Tattooed nonsense or meaningless Chinese words on their bodies. The phrase you chose isn't nonsense, but just would like to know if that's what you wanted. :)
Also, it suggest you to put the Tattoo on the back vertically, because that's how Chinese words are written traditionally, and that'll be way cooler than putting the Chinese words horizontally on your chest.
cheers,
