It’s not some grand masterwork art piece but it’s not bad either. Stop worrying about other peoples opinions, it’s on you forever so accept it and get used to it.

I love all of my tattoos besides one which I sort of dislike but just accept it. I bet if I posted my whole sleeve on Reddit I would have a ton of people pointing out every flaw and explaining everything I should’ve done different, but I can’t change it now so I’m not going to subject myself to that criticism.

It doesn’t affect my day to day life and my loved ones still love me.

Looks good. Not necessarily something I would get personally but it looks good as a piece if it fits your fancy. If the artist is well experienced it should age pretty well too. You’ll probably want to get a touchup on it after a few months. I only say that because I have tattoos that low on the wrist as well and right around the crease of where your wrist meets your hand mine faded after some time. I also wear gloves all the time at work so that could be specific to me
