Need your help choosing!

[darjanator]

On 27th April, I, Darjanator will be getting a tattoo of the Solar system on my forearm. The entire ordeal shall be streamed on twitch.tv/darjanator.

Here I ask the potential viewers to help me decide on which side the tattoo should be on.

I don't guarantee the winning option will be resplendent on my body, only that I will use the results to help decide.

Thank you!

Yes, as I said I won't do what the poll says, I'll only use it to help me decide.

sorry, but trick question. we do not know the size of the tattoo, black &white or color? is this your fist tattoo, does your job need you to keep that tattoo hidden? these are just part of the questions to consider. I have 7 tats now, If you like your first one you will end up with more.

Don't know yet whether b&w only or colour, but it won't be large or complex as it kinda needs to be done in a single sitting. My current job doesn't require me to cover any of that up, no.

I'd get it where people can see it. If you wear shorts a lot, a tat on your calf is very popular and it is large enough for a decent size tattoo. I have a lot of tattoos, and something like a solar system id go for a larger canvas area than forearm. After a few years tiny detail disappears and its much better to go with larger tattoos vs tiny tattoos.

1st tattoo? Double check that the planets are in the right order before the needle hits skin!
I'd suggest drawing a mock up with a marker on both locations beforehand to see what you like better. When healing, keep it clean, use bacitracin (not neosporin), let it breathe while keeping it out of direct sunshine (no hanging your arm out of car window). AND DO NOT SCRATCH! No matter how itchy!
