Okay, so, I’ve been thinking about getting a tattoo for a while now, and I’ve always been a huge fan of Rhea Ripley. She’s just so cool, you know? Her look, her attitude, everything. I finally decided to take the plunge and get some ink inspired by her.
First off, I spent hours looking at pictures of Rhea’s tattoos. She’s got a bunch, and they’re all pretty awesome. I wanted to get something that was clearly inspired by her, but not a straight-up copy, you feel me? I wanted it to be my own, too. I especially liked the placement of a lot of her tattoos, particularly on her arms and hands.
Then came the hard part – figuring out what exactly I wanted. I knew I liked her demon tattoo, it’s iconic. I also really dig the whole gothic vibe she’s got going on. I spent a few days just sketching out ideas, trying to come up with something that felt right. I wasn’t trying to be some kind of tattoo artist, just trying to get a general idea down on paper, you know?
Next, I started looking for a tattoo artist. This was a big deal, obviously. I didn’t want to just walk into any old shop. I asked around, checked out portfolios online, and read a ton of reviews. Finally, I found this one artist who seemed to really get the style I was going for. His work was sick, and he had a lot of experience with darker, more gothic designs.
- Went to the tattoo shop and had a chat with the artist.
- Showed him my rough sketches and pictures of Rhea’s tattoos.
- We talked about what I was looking for, and he gave me some great suggestions.
- He drew up a few designs, and we tweaked them until I was happy.
The day of the appointment, I was super nervous, not gonna lie. But the artist was really chill, and he made me feel comfortable. The whole process took a few hours, and yeah, it hurt a bit, but it was totally worth it.
The Result
I ended up getting a demon inspired by Rhea’s, but with my own twist on it. I also got a few smaller pieces on my arm that complement the main tattoo. I’m so stoked with how it all turned out. It’s exactly what I wanted – a tribute to Rhea Ripley, but also something that’s unique to me. Getting these tattoos felt like a way to express my admiration for Rhea and also show off a bit of my own personality. If you are thinking about it, just do it!
