Basically Im looking for a really detailed picture of 2 opera masks

the happy laughing face, and the sad crying face.

Maybe im just not finding the right words to search on google. So maybe you guys can help me out.

Post pics of the 2 opera masks please and help me design my tattoo! Much much appreciated!

Hell, even if you are a talented artist and can sketch something up for me PM me and ill be more than willing to throw you some $$ for your troubles :)

thanks again!

maybe u should pay the artist to do his job.. and thats come up with the sketch + the ink onto u

that being said

what kind of opera masks..not sure what else u want on it... are u talking strict white ones (wouldnt recommend white tattoos but that depends on your skin)

"theatre mask" is the keyword you're looking for.

Horrible idea for a tattoo though IMO.

in a way opera style masks

Something along the lines of for the happy one

Laugh and the world laughs with you, and the sad one

weep and you weep alone

Been something ive wanted to do for quite some time. Just need to find the right sort of picture where I can bring to the artist so he or she can play around with it a little.

Dude... Just talk to the tattoo artist themselves. They are going to know what will fit your body part better than anyone else because that is what they do. Pictures do not always tattoo well, so explain to them what you want and let them draw it around the placement.
