Looks like the yellows laid in nicely, and I completely agree that tribal sux huge nasty donkey balls. Y'know what though? It's easy money, and when you haven't done anything all week, a gigantic tribal piece looks mighty tasty. :D

Thanks!
I did another tribal piece straight after this one that took an hour and a half and ended up with a nice groove in my hand. It just kills my hands and I am never able to get the black in soild no matter how slow I go. I guess I just need more practice ^^;

I don't understand why a lot of tattooists hate tribals? Please shed light on this confused kitty-cat, plz! ;P

As for the tattoo, wow, it looks awesome, I love how the fiery colors really bring up the black even more! :heart:

The greatest paradox mankind ever created was to have put the words 'Domestic' and 'Cat' in the same sentence.

Another question... Was it done on his elbow? I can't seem to be sure as to exactly where it is located. :XD:

Getting tribal solid black is almost impossible first time round. You have to go really slow and it kills your hand >.> generally, people always have to come back to have the tribal re-coloured since it goes patchy where you miss little bits or they bleed so much you just tattoo blood into the skin and it waters down the black.
But for me especially....no other colours, just soild black...it drives me mad!!! :rage:
Glad you like it though ^^

I agree, applying tribal sucks ass! Even with a mag it can be real difficult to get it in solid the first time...sooooo aggravating!

You did a beautiful job on this though and if he takes care of it I doubt you will have to touch it up....it looks very smooth and solid!
