Finally scored a copy of Ozuma Kaname's long out of print "Women in Tattoo" book. I've been drooling over it ever since I saw it in Kurt Wiscombe's shop 6 years ago! Can't wait for it to come in!

Photos of my tattoo/art books, well the ones I could put my hands on. I will take a wee hoak for the others over the weekend and share pics later. Had some renovation work done here and some books were moved to protect them from dust. I also have a pair of small Japanese masks that a friend got me from their visit in Japan many years ago. Will take a photo of those and share later as well.
My favourite books have to be my H R Giger books. I have more than the three shown below.


My other tattoo books that were on hand.



I do a lot of crafting, hence the tattoo books for children. There is a lot of cross-over for me between tattoo ideas and crafting.

Not mine, but great to see Kore Flatmo posting again, it's been close to a year!

Have a look at Rob Admiraal Instagram

Here's one today from Tracy Lambright

Adam Craft just posted this cover up jobbie:

I'm looking for photos of Koi backpieces with a specific perspective on the Koi, illustrated in the Roper and Horimatsu pieces below. I haven't seen many done from this perspective but I think it looks great! I've seen a Rubendall piece like this at one point but am unable to locate it. Any pictures or links would be appreciated!
Thanks!

One more from Henning

@ironchef I think I would only do colour if I had one cohesive full suit of waves and rocks with a massive Koi on my back, except the colour would be done like the Horimatsu piece, just a hint of yellow in the fins!

Is this the Rubendall one?

Yeah that Rubendall piece is definitely tibetan inspired! The skulls are adorned with smaller skulls, just like real Tibetan necromancer masks!
