Where should i get my skull tattoo?

I am planning on getting a Day of the dead skull tattoo a bit bigger than fist size. I was thinking on my lower back but i'm not sure. I want it to be surrounded by flowers. Where are some good places to get it where it would sit well and not become to distorted with age?

Now if you were looking for a nice prime spot i would say your shoulder especially if its a day of the dead skull because those fit perfect there and if you want you can add on for later references. Oh and get it bigger than a fist youll get way more detail.

You know what they say "the bigger the better".; ▶ Reply to This

Mine is in the center of my back, with the wings going up towards my shoulders and roses at the bottom. I plan on getting 2 more skulls, one on each shoulder ( as coverups of some shitty tats I have already lol).
Anywho, I think your lower back would be good, as would your shoulder blades or center like I did. If you do the center, you can always add to it, if you choose.; ▶ Reply to This

All that hus huss stuff that tattoo artists talk about. Midgets and blood and shit...
