Not bad in my opinion. More like early D&D artwork. Zombies do look rough so it works out. I could rock this. I'm guessing you didn't pay much for such a large tattoo. That's how I got caught 😁
This is why you have to sign a waiver stating you are not under the influence of anything and are in a sound state of mind when getting a tattoo (legally) here.
The worst of these were done by beginners at home. In some cases it looks like with a homemade tattoo gun. A lot of these are actually beautiful and well done. I have some far from perfect tattoos but at this point getting something clean and fine line by a true artist will mess with the overall aesthetic.
