big enough to put on the side of my stomach from ribs to hip [more or less]

Just get an airbrush tattoo.
You aren’t going to be able to find a rub-on like that.

The first picture and second picture both have a black shaded background with space in between them, and I’ve seen this background used for many Japanese style tattoos, but does it have a meaning? Or is it just a design
http://www.tattoo22.com/koi.html

Those designs are generally to represent wind or water elements.

According to Japanese legend if a koi succeeded in climbing the falls at a point called Dragons Gate on the Yellow River , it would be transformed into a dragon..Based on that legend it became a symbol of worldly aspiration and advancement.. it has the meaning of perseverance in adversity and strength of purpose.Because of its strength and determination to overcome obstacles it stands for courage and the ability to attain high goals…
Other people say it means good fortune or luck..

i really want to get this tattoo that has two koi fish swimming together and i cant find the meaning anywhere.. ive found the meaning of just a koi fish and i know it represents courage/strength nd even love.. then again i found one that said it looks like a pisces sign nd im a pisces so i thot the meanings/symbols could go together.. [me being pisces, and the symbol of me n my man getting stronger by the day].. i have a cherry blossom tree tattoo on my right shoulder and was thinking bout getting the koi fish tattoo on my lower back on the left side.. i have cherry blossoms falling from the tree nd the koi fish tattoo has cherry blossoms too so i figured since the cherry blossom represents how basically we only get to live one life and to cherish how beautiful it is.. i figured it could connect like.. we only get to live one life, to cherish life itself and the people in it.. and since he’s very important to me we’ll represent the two koi fish the blossoms kinda fall on? good idea?

Forget about it !, Tattoos should have everlasting personal meaning. Tattos are forever.

Hey guys! This was requested by Chastity, aka pdbncbb, and I thought it was such an awesome idea! Thanks for the request sweetie!

I pretty much based it off of tattoo flash art. I am totally in love with tattoos, even though I do not have any lol. But I wanted to do a more modern koi as opposed to the more traditional Japanese style. I’ve also included some drawings from my “I wanna be a tattoo artist phase.” Hope you guys enjoy and thanks for watching, commenting and rating!

What is really going to matter is the artist that you choose. Be sure to go to someone that is skilled with shading. Also if you want color, make sure that you go to someone that is talented with blending. The links that I posted are really well done tats, but if you want something beautiful like them take your time in finding an artist that will do the koi justice! Good luck!

Finally Finished!! my koi fish!!

you should add cherry blossoms and some more water to it and more color, you can get a chinese symbol representing a certain word that represents something to you
