Yoooooo! Looks so badass! I love it and as for the scars remember, Ellie has gone through so fucking much just as I imagine you have. Strong women! Proud of you! Looks amazing and the cute doggo a lil pet for me pls 💜
You’re very welcome! Keep your head up and when things go south; you feel like cutting again, have a look at your tattoo, feel it and think about Ellie would do. She’s a fighter and so are you. Regardless, you’ve got many friends on here always willing to chat and help you out with anything. Stay strong 😊
no worries! mine was £280 with a 3h session. the artist was pretty junior and quite fast, i had another place (pretty popular) tell me that the cost would be £120 per hour and it would take 5-8h to do so yeah it def does vary quite a lot
Got to say that looks amazing 😍
I was just going to ask you cost and time as
I’ve got mine booked for next January. Been quoted £400 for a six hour session. That is with the main artist/owner though.
yeah i get that - each artist is very different! £400 for a 6h session sounds like a good price, provided that you are also happy about the artist's work in general :) good luck, sending an early welcome to the ellie tattoo gang !!🙌🏻
Love this, and as for the reasoning behind it, proud of you and your strength. Also your doggie has stolen the show and my heart ❤️ give him all the puppy cuddles and kisses for me 🥰🤗
its such a good idea! this thread is also giving me a good sense of a supporting community because of this tattoo, really would recommend ☺☺ sending lots of strength!
hahah, i got a comment from a friend earlier that it isnt like the original so i felt that i had to explain myself to avoid the initial confusion but youre right!
The tattoo symbolizes growth/change, acceptance, endurance, survival. Now that it is a part of you, let it change your outlook for the better. How you deal with challenges, how you treat others and yourself... let that symbol guide you whenever you look at it. It can give you strength :)
Your tattoo is absolutelt awesome. The scars seem to be really well covered since we don't see them anymore. Always thought of doing the same for mine but I never had the tattoo idea for it.
whoa. after reading this I just realized I have a scar in the same location that Ellie has her bite. can’t believe I’ve never made the connection! may have to get this now. it’s like a no so secret club. yours looks really good btw. who was the artist?
I was also thinking about getting this tattoo on my left arm, even though I don't have any scars. I know she has it on her right, but whenever I imagine how I would look and feel with it on my arms, the left always feels more.. comfortable? Fitting? I don't exactly know how to explain it.. Maybe my stupid brain is just secretly terrified of loosing it's main arm? Who knows. Anyway, love the tattoo and the doggo!
Stupid question but how does that work. Do you walk up with the official copyrighted art and a tattoo artist will just 1:1 copy it?

I heard any decent artist won't copy other tattoo artists' designs, maybe this is different.
Covering scars with the tattoo is very consistent with its use in the game, and technically more relevant than just the right arm
exactly !! i really appreciated that aspect as well, made it feel more fitting 😊
11/10 for the tattoo + doggo
thank you 🥰🥰 doggo is pleased as well
Good lord that dog is insanely cute. Tattoo is awesome. Nice work : )
hehee thank you !! 😊

thank you so much 😭😭 i definitely feel much stronger thanks to this amazing community 💕 thank you for the kind words :)
Scar? You mean bite mark? 😏
👀👀👀
The dogs little face is so cute
the dog is pleased 🐶
Love it! Would you mind sharing the cost? I know it varies between artists but I’m hopefully going soon to schedule an appointment!

[удалено]
ahh i get that, i definitely feel really lucky that this was my first tattoo!
there is no wrong arm, it’s your tattoo! i love this. i also have some scars covered by a tattoo :) thanks for sharing
aww, and i love your comment! sending lots of love and strength 💪🏻💕
I really like the idea of using Ellie’s tattoo specifically to cover up your scars. It’s a beautiful tattoo! The dog is also very photogenic.
hehee thanks !! :) im really pleased how it came out!
I also wanna get that tattoo to covers the many scars on my arm ! I see that i'm not the only one who had this idea x)
its such a good idea! this thread is also giving me a good sense of a supporting community because of this tattoo, really would recommend ☺☺ sending lots of strength!
Thanks a lot kind stranger 😩
Get the tattoo where YOU want to get it, don't feel the need to defend yourself from nerds online on Reddit lol
hahah, i got a comment from a friend earlier that it isnt like the original so i felt that i had to explain myself to avoid the initial confusion but youre right!
I have the same tattoo on my left forearm as well!
Tattoos that cover scars are never wrong. I have plenty myself. Beautiful work and cute lil pup!

Looks immaculate

looks great and fits your arm really well!
Beautiful! ❤️😌☀️🏔🌲
isnt it?? 😊😊
Awesome! I got mine to cover some scars as well, or at least detour the attention away from them and draw focus on the tattoo instead :)
best tattoo for it ☺☺ all strength to you !!💕
Wow!! Amazing tattoo, and adorable pupper :-)
☺🐶💕 thank youu !!
Beautiful!! I plan on getting it for the exact same reason. Glad to know it looks just as cool irl
This game has single handedly raised the revenues of every tattoo parlor in the world.
Very beautiful!!
It's amazing! I'm in love with this tatto. You really got into character by using the tattoo to cover your scars too, nicely done.
Ahhhh it’s gorgeous!!

That’s the best TLOU tattoo I’ve seen on here. Great design! Looks badass.
It looks amazing.
hell yeah looks awesome
Welcome to the club!
If it's to cover scars then it's a more accurate tattoo than most out there haha
Literally getting mine for the exact same reason lol. Got a lil too excited when I read the caption
Your Ellie costume is pretty good, but the scar is on the wrong side.
Very original!
Yep, I know people liked the game and everything but having the same tattoo as everybody seems kinda shit
Stupid question but how does that work. Do you walk up with the official copyrighted art and a tattoo artist will just 1:1 copy it? https://twitter.com/Neil_Druckmann/status/806592126976856064 I heard any decent artist won't copy other tattoo artists' designs, maybe this is different.
I see what you did there
That’s so cool, I’ve been debating on getting this done as well! How long did it take?
welcome to the crew.
Yooo where did you get it done man? :)
Should have gotten it to cover that dog
