Tribal Lion and Tribal Tiger Tattoo

Just a couple of tribal animal designs I did recently. Even though these design are tribal, they still capture the essence of the animal. Nice clear lines and solid color will insure that these tattoos look good far into the future.

The Year of The Tiger!

The year of the tiger on the Chinese calender is celebrated every twelve years. I really like doing tigers both in full color and as black and gray tattoos.

Tigers on the Attack

Tigers! The start of a great tattoo starts with a good strong image. Tigers make for great tattoos, here I worked around one tiger on the inside of the forearm. Adding another tiger and some scenery of bamboo and some distant mountains.

Tigers Tigers Tigers

Tiger running through the water leaves a real splash! This tattoo was done in one long sitting. I don't recommend that everybody sit through a big tattoo in just one sitting, some are better off getting the outline and shading in one session and then the colors done at another time.
Here is a tiger perched high on a ledge, roaring over the lowlands. Roaring a warning call to the valley below.
Tiger hidden in a rose. This was a custom tatto that I drew for the customer, and should not be stolen. Think up your own design and have you tattoo artist draw it up for you.
Maybe this tiger is looking for some fish?

There were lions and now there is Tigers

Japanese tiger tattoo design. A tiger on the hunt. 2010 is the year of the tiger on the Chinese calender and will return twelves years later. The Chinese horoscope is a great source for tattoo ideas. Check with a Chinese horoscope calender to find out what animal year you were born in. Other horoscopes can be used with you animal sign to bring out more of your characteristics,maybe you are a water sign or an air sign and would like that to show in your next tattoo.

Hot Rods In Rahway

All I can say is wow! I took a short walk and saw some amazing cars and bikes, wish I had more time. The shop was busy and it looks like the T shirts are a hit. This piece below was what kept me away from the outdoor festivities.
