tribal is the easiest to start with ... almost every artist starts with tribal work ... the praying hands of stone has to be "hands down"( haha i made a funny) one of the toughest pieces yet .... it wasnt that big but took close to 5 hours to complete due to all the detail work alot of shading and grey wash

nobody else has tattoo's ... come on im sure someone has to have a ball python tattoo that i can reference from ... i have one drawn out but i want to see one on skin so i can figure out the shading point of it on a person

I know Heather from Heather's Herps has one that's pretty awesome. You can find it if you use the search function.

I don't have any tattoos as of now. I want some though.

I got one no recent pic of it. It off the AH MY Goddess dvd case done on my right upper arm og belldandy,urn and skurd . ( closest I think you can ever get me to a reglious tattoo ever. I I like ot find a person to go over some of the colors and and do a touch up and finish the white on the wings and bell's dress. My next tat I am thinking either amruader ( classic battletech) or the type ) from eureka seven.. Then I might get a reptile based one later on depends on my reptile addiction and funds...

Nice!

The lizard is my favorite, but the detail on the praying hands is amazing! Great work.

Here is my second tattoo. Colors are more vivid in real life. The first was some paw prints on my ankle.

thats an awesome design i personally would ditch the dragon head on the end of the bamboo and replace the dragon head with like a python head most likely a GTP just cause of the way the GTP has a smooth looking jaw line that tat would be killer ..then you get the best of things in one shot you get your bamboo's and your snake 2 for 1 deal.... but that should be about a 3-4 hour tattoo right there alot of tight spots and alot of shading .... but that is def a different piece of work ... would like to see it done when you get it .... heck id like to do it .. you need a vacation ... lol

im an aries so thats probably y thats my fav tat =p its siiiick :bow:

thanks ...yea just incase nobody has noticed as of yet im a tribal junkie i love doing tribal ... tribal is the begging of the tattoo era .. originally done by hand with needles made from bamboo splinters

My body is not a canvas, but I appreciate those whose are :D Great tats everyone!

To the OP: how long have you been inking other people?

:confused: Weird how someone can be tattooing a month and go from the crap in your first 2 pics to the huge tribal wings(which definitely took longer than 3hrs) in such a short time.

Oh and why is it you were "outed" for being a liar on inkednation and stealing pics? The pic with "your girl" with the lilies on the side is taken in a tattoo shop! :rofl:

If you're going to lie at least be good at it.

He never said that was his girl. It was just an example of what his design looked like. I think :P

Oh really?

http://www.inkednation.com/tattoo_fo...Topic_ID=68609

If you read the comments you can see that he claims it as "his girl" and that he had other photos up and took them down once people realized he was a liar and a thief.

Wow, that's not cool. I'm just curious... How did you find that page? Did you really go out and google his name, or were you already on that website?

I googled his name because I knew there was no way he was doing quality work like those praying hands after a month. I've worked in the tattoo business now for over 12 years. :gj: Theft of photos/tattoos is pretty common and it's very annoying and disrespectful.

you see thats where your wrong on inked nation ... that is the same drawing that i am doing on my girls side .... i never said that that was my girl i created the drawing from that picture and finished the drawing 2 hours before i posted that ... im not all familiar with inked nation yet(i just joined 3 days ago) ... obviously i posted in the hot ink section to me thats a piece of hot ink ... i didnt know that was for artist to post there actual tats up ... and as for the rest of the tats in my pics yes i did do them the hands were done in the shop with the guy who is teaching me but yes that is my work with his help ... it doesnt take long to make it right especially when you have someone who has been doing them for 30+ years teaching you and people willing to let you work on them. i draw and actually tattoo everyday practice makes perfect ... if you notice i took the pictures down on inked nation ... yes the lillys are from phil young i did not do that actual tattoo if you see what i posted here it clearly says its the next peice i am doing on my girls side ... i just worded it wrong on inked nation and didnt understand the reason of the thread ... i just thought it was tats that you think are hot ... so call me what you want and believe what you want ... but just to clear things up the lilys are not my work but i did draw it out to place on my girls side just like in the pic

... was uploaded to this site in NOVEMBER OF 2008!!!! if you've only been tattooing for a month.

:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Face it, you're NOT a professional tattoo artist. You're someone trying to be one and failing. You don't work in a shop. Your inknation profile even states that you're looking for an apprenticeship but can't find one. STOP stealing people's work and claiming it as your own. That is no way to get a break in this community/business.

Oh wow.. I was about to give the guy the benefit of the doubt until you pulled that up.. Good work.

And this one was uploaded to a UK site on 07/03/2004

The only one I feel comfortable to say is actually yours is the top one, and it honestly sucks.
Find yourself a new hobby, and don't taint your name by claiming others work as yours.

Well this is probably pointless since the OP has been chased off and shall never return. lol. To the OP you should really not try to do what you are doing. You may actually be starting out and may be really into it but what do you really have to gain. I mean if I went to you and you showed me a portfolio full of pics that weren't yours (but that was unknown to me) and you gave me a tattoo then
I would kill you when it came out like crap.
or
I would sue the crap outta you for dishonest business practices. Or maybe you will understand the term fraud because thats what it really is.

I wish you the best of luck with your new hobby and hope you become a really good tat artist but it really takes alot of practice so instead of searching for cool pics to call your own maybe you should actually create some. Good luck :salute:
