Live, Love
Don't you find it rather annoying when people go on and on about how "tattoos are permanent" and "they are going to fade and distort", and that they are "ugly to look at it/ it should be illegal"? I swear sometimes I want to crawl through the screen and slap them.
So my question to you is... Doesn't that bother you? Also, how many tattoos do you have and where? What age did you get your first one?
I was 17 when I got my first one. I have a flamingo/palm tree in my right ankle and a large cross w a trinity symbol/wings that covers the top part of my back (between my shoulder). :)

Well, no it doesn't bother me if the information is correct and true.
1) tattoos are permanent = true - meaning that much thought should go into the images and/or words, and that what you find appealing at 15, you probably will not want when you are 20 or 40 or 60 etc.
2) tattoos fade = true IF you do not take excellent care of them and use the highest SPF sunblock each and every time that you expose your tattoo to the elements, no matter what the weather, and all year round - and you should reapply often.
3) tattoos distort = true IF you get them when your body has not finished growing (under 18), and they distort if you get pregnant or gain a bunch of weight. Sometimes when you are young, your skin will pull back, but often belly tattoos on woman turn into a nightmare with age and pregnancies.
4) tattoos are 'ugly to look at and should be illegal' = false - this is totally opinion based and has no relevancy to anyone wanting a tattoo. It is no one's business what personal permanent decisions you make for your own reasons. Anyone pushing their fears through trying to stop someone from getting a tattoo, is out of line (unless it is a parent or guardian of an underage person). Otherwise, people should get off of their soapbox rants and live their own lives.
I have 5 tattoos, all custom, all personal and unique. I got my 1st tattoo on my 50th birthday.
I have no problems about my tattoos. No one gives me a hard time or treats me differently because of them. And mine are quite visible - one is a large wrist bracelet , and one is a large image on my forearm.
If you don't get defensive, and smile and honestly answer peoples questions, you will find that most people are just curious. Everyone knows someone with tattoos or has some themselves.
luck~

Answer
I totally agree with Hasley Q. You're ideas are beyond awesome... are stars significant to you? I think that a female with all those star tats would be amazing, almost like a mythological being. Totally awesome.
Anyway I'd say go for it, so long as you wouldn't mind having those tattoos when you're older, or going through significant life events such as a wedding. Also you might want to wait on the hip/lower back stars until you are out of your childbearing age. I mention that because that area has a tendency to deform you tattoos when you're pregnant. Also 50% of the children born last year in the United States were not planned for. (There parents were not trying to concieve. I throuw in this statistic because many women who don't plan to have kids do.) Just something to think about.
