2. Wow!
That's impressive as hell.

I have a Chinese dragon on my right shoulder blade and it's nice, but it's nowhere near as good as those. Are any of them yours? I wanted a dragon about 7 years ago, but the only "girly" dragons were pink and red. I'm a redhead, so that wasn't what I was looking for. A tattoo artist in Austin redesigned one of his dragons in green and blue and it turned out beautifully. My dad freaked out, but got over it when I had my nose pierced.

:P

I'm itching for more ink. At 38, with a teenage daughter, I'm in the throes of deciding whether I should get one or not. I'd like some work around my ankle, preferably with Buddhist symbolism, like the golden fish. You're an artist...any suggestions?

Thanks for the link and the incredible photos! Rock on...

3. Impressive in one sense, I admit
but they almost look as if someone has figured out how to run a human (or his flesh) thru an epson 9600 with durabrite inks. Even the freckles add to a photoshop *effect* feel, lol.

But then, I don't much "get" tattoos anyway. Small, subtle, symmetrical... sometimes I'll think, "hey, that's cool" or "mmm, sexy". But most times not.

5. Impressive
I've never felt the urge to cover my back with H.R. Giger, though. I'll stick with my little ankle tat'.

12. the most impressive artists in the world
are tattoo artists. Anyone can draw or paint on canvas, try doing the same thing on human skin - WITHOUT the ability to erase or go back or toss out your canvas.
