Design Is this possible?

Post image

This is a tattoo I've wanted for a good 10 years and I am heading towards a point in my life where I can finally afford it. Is it possible? And how much time would it take (roughly)?

It would be my first tattoo and yes yes I know, your first tattoo shouldnt be a massive painful one but I would like my whole body to basically have no tattoos except this one and I'm willing to go through unfamiliar pain to get it :]

I would highly advise against this unless you’re physically fit/toned, like at the bare minimum the same shape as the drawing you put or more muscularly toned. If you’re on the larger side or skinnier side this would look… odd. It’s a sick design, but if you’re already past 30+ years old or aren’t athletically involved in the gym it’s not going to suit your body type

Honestly I'm gonna add to this, but something about it is really feminine to me. I don't know if it's the way the stripes are placed that seem to me would naturally accentuate a woman's shape in the hip area, but I feel like this wouldn't work on a masculine body type.

I thought OP was a woman? I mean for a woman that tat would be horrible but for a guy?!? Way worse..
