If ur an artist then I would greatly appreciate ur help. But I was wondering do you think this would show up on brown skin?

Might sound like a dumb question Crying or Very sad

, but none of my tattoos have any color in them.

Thanks in advance

Is the football player the tattoo you wanted?

I can see the football player and it looks good to me.

Are you very dark skinned? It probably will not look the way you want. Whites and other light colors do not look good at all on dark skin they take on a horrible hue. Stick to very dark colors for your tattoo. Sorry I am sure you were not hoping for that answer but you are doing right asking before you get something that you will not be happy with.

@ Nike, yes the football player is the tattoo I want.

@ Artist, thanks for the heads up on the link.

@ Ed Sir, yeah I figured I would do a little research b4 I get a tattoo that I end up HATING. But to answer your question, im more of a light brown complection. Let me see, think a little darker than LL Cool J, LOL. So would that come on right on me? Also, what about the orange? That probably will not show up too well huh? And I hate to give yoy the fifth degree, but that tattoo would not look right if it were not in color...do you agree w/ that statement?

Take it to a reliable local artist. It's always better to have an artist see the pic and your skin in person, next to each other. Even if you have a pic of yourself from your camera and post it here, you still have lighting issues and such.
