i wouldn't worry too much about your sleeve... the truth is that... not only am i a nazi perfectionist (which is my own stupid fault), but i think i knew as i was getting sleeved that i wasn't going to be happy with it. which was stupid on my part. i love all my other tattoos and i wouldnt get rid of them for the world... so if you like your sleeve so far, i'm betting you'll be just fine. finish it! tattooed guys are hot!
