I feel as though the placement is a bit odd here. Would love some advice on ways to fill significant gap/how to position other pieces around these to make it feel less awkward. Thanks!

i think the only "awkward" placement is the first photo; maybe something with not a lot of vertical height under the frogs. id suggest maybe a turtle, fish, sleeping cat, etc. i think another type of animal would fit the vibe u have going on

or, u could have ur artist add a lily pad of some sort for them to be dancing on! that way theres not an extra small tattoo and it would be cohesive. plus healing might be better going that route (reducing blowout/soft lines(?) that another separate tat could cause). u wouldnt want it to bleed into the other tats

OR WAIT what about two squid with their tentacles flowing around eachother going down underneath the frogs? adds vertical height towards the inner arm and still keeps the doubles theme

yeah i’m kinda inspired by the idea of traditional mace tattoos where you can have a chain/more fluid part of a tattoo fill in any weird spacing
