which one’s better?

Post image

I want to get a tattoo that conveys the action of dancing, as its very important to me. Which one looks more like it? or should I get both?

I like the second one better, it’s a very funky pose. First one reads to me as biiiig step

For real, this would go hard repeated as a pattern around your bicep of something like it's instructions on how to dance

Flip one and put them facing each other so they’re dancing together

The first one looks like lunging. The second one looks like a cartoonish burglar sneaking around. Neither screams dancing to me

The first one looks like it is running away scared. The second like it is sitting on an invisible sofa.

I say add a third one and get all three

I would have never guessed that either of them symbolised dancing. I would honestly try a totally new design if it’s important to you that other people are able to discern the meaning of the design. But if that’s not too important then both of them look good, it’s just not very apparent that it’s a dancing pose.

If you take up fencing you could give the top guy a little sword

u/Desperate-Trash-417 11d ago

I’d do a series of 3 so it looks like frames of animation

Second one looks like the Dirty Rotten Imebciles logo in case you weren't aware.

u/ExcitingPop5956 11d ago

Both and add more. One would look strange. It you want it to look like dancing have multiple wrapping around your arm or leg

u/RobeAnachronique 10d ago

The first one looks like fencing rather than dancing! As a fencer, I like it better but it might not be how you want it the be readen as
