New tattoo pics

[ticboy]

Hey,

Just got a new tatto done on my chest, so thought may as well throw a pic up. It isn't quite finished, have to get the outline done with a heavier gauge needle to make it more defined, and maybe a little bit more shading but I think it looks pretty good so far.

I took the pic with my camera phone which is a cheap piece of crap, plus I have the antisecptic cream all over it so the pic quality isn't the greatest.

Yea man thats pretty bad ass... I've only got 1 tattoo so far that i actually drew up when i was in like 10th grade after 3 of my friends died. I love it, mostly because its for them and i created it.. i'd like to get another one maybe 2.. i've had 2 things in mind for about a year but still can't decide if i'm gonna go for it.. i dont' wanna regret it

yeah its cool, but what is it?

it is a tribal design based on a Sea God from New Zealand mythology. The actual God was depicted as a fish/snake type creature.

I had chosen a different tattoo, but the guy who did the tattoo showed me this design, the shape was similiar to what I had chosen but this had a lot more detail. I still have to have some lines on it made bolder to give a bit more definition, but I think it looks pretty cool so far

The guy who did the design is a young Maori guy who father is a Master Carver and he has based a lot of his desings upon work that his father has done.

I just have to get this one finished and then it might be on to the next one

How long did it take to do?

[ticboy]

It took just under four hours including about 20 imns of drwing and setting up. Probably about 3 and a half hours actually tattooing.

To finish it will tak about anohter hour of outlining and making sure all the shading is sorted

Four hours that’s a long time. U Got Guts man

I could not do that. You said you have to go back how long on the coloring?

If you ever get a chance to see a traditional Tattoo being done jump at the chance,they use a pigs tusk and wooden hammer.the tusk is repeatedly dipped in ink and peirced into the skin.Maori, polynesian they are almost all the same.
