    I'd say, overall, for your sixth tattoo that's awesome! Good, solid lines. Smooth shading. Nice job.
    I would suggest more definition in the centerpiece and more contrast (darker, some ridges or veins) in, what I'm assuming are, the thinner leaves underneath. Also, a little background shading to create weight and movement helps to bring a smaller piece to life.
    Again, nice job! Keep it up!

    Remember tattoo machines don't come with spell checkers.

    I don't know guys, I think that I'm going to have to call line work on this. I can't tell for sure by the picture, but it looks like there are blown out lines or shaky lines or something.

    Agreed Serial, but that's to be expected at #6. Linework just clicked for me and everyone I apprenticed, he's just gotta keep at it and it will click. The tattoo is pretty well done for only being the 6th one and the grey is pretty smooth. Good job and no matter how frustrated you get keep at it. Just remember it's not how many times you fall down it's how many times you get back up that counts. Mick-

    Oh, other than the lines it looks good. Yes that is expected w/ the 6th tattoo.

    That's a good tattoo for your 6th. I think that you could've went a little darker in certain areas to add more contrast but all in all it looks good. Keep it up!
