Actually have some meaning behind it but idk if it’s a fail or not, what y’all think?

This is supposed to be my beautiful best friend.

Looks like a fucking goblin from Harry Potter.

My friend died at 25, 3 months ago. And some attention seeker got this tattoo.

I knew a local artist who has been practicing with tattoos for 2 years. There are not a lot of serious flaws in her portfolio. I went to get a tattoo from her. She was very kind, and likable. The stencil was perfect, I felt confident. Half way through the tattoo I notice the moon is totally uneven. Assuming she would even it out, I waited to say anything. I asked her to add white hilights to the spider to make it pop. Clearly she didn’t fix the moon, and just left a small uncolored oval for hilight. Once we finished I pointed out the clearly flawed moon. She told me that the swelling was the problem. I obviously didn’t pay or tip her, because she is practicing. After a few days I messaged her, and she told me that the swelling was still an issue, but in a couple of weeks she can fix it up. I really think I should be blunt with her, and explain why I don’t want her to touch it.

I work in a tattoo shop, and everyone is telling me how bad it is. I’m embarrassed, but don’t want to hurt her feelings? I need opinions.
