The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Taking what people here have said into consideration... instead of just directly stealing somebody else's art off the internet and slapping it on your body, why don't you actually work with the tattoo artist to create something similar, but uniquely your own? Fix the proportions - shrinking the head a bit and increasing the size of the hands would go a long way towards reducing the "olol loli" aspect of it. Humans are strongly conditioned to view things with oversized heads as being young and adorable, and right now her head is only in perspective if the person looking down at her views the world through a massive fisheye lens. You could also adjust the shackle/lock system to be more realistic. Heck, a good artist could even redo the style slightly to make it a better match for the one on your leg.
Personally, if it's what you like, then that's all that matters. You aren't getting it to impress your friend or your wife; you're getting it for yourself.
