Pair of flowers

Well, no interesting trivia here but I do have a fact. This is a couple flowers.

Pelican

In the scene where Tony is in the bathtub watching TV, he says to Manny, "Look at dem pelicangs fly." This line was what Al Pacino practiced with a language coach to get the Cuban accent right.
Little Scarface trivia for ya there.

This is a rockin' tune! Yeah it's not exactly a tattoo, but metal and tats are related, y'know?

Samurai

Originally came from an old japanese woodblock print.

Lucky clover

Says it all.

Bunches of flowers

Very colorful, well done flowers. Diggin the yellow one on the right.

Biomechanical

Don't think you see as many biomech lately either?

Aztec necklace

Pretty intricate, if I do say so myself. Don't see enough aztec anymore.

Vitruvian Man

I know I'm right on this one! Davinci's work circa 1400's.

Clover and flowers

Not being big into horticulture, I 'think' these are violets...? Aren't violets purple?

D&D

I've no idea if this really was taken from D&D or any other RPG, but he sure looks like a creature out of their artwork, doesn't he?

Black widow

...and one for the guys.

Ladybug

One for the ladies.

Skull

Not sure if calling it a vortex is right or not, but it looks great.

Mom heart

Another new take on an old theme. Definitely an improvement from the old version!

Knuckles and stars

Violent, but unique and well done collage.

Three wise clowns

New take on an old theme.

Fleur-de-lis

Great looking representation of a classic symbol.

Cross in skin

Cross in the flesh, pretty neat concept.

Bird portrait

Not a bird watcher, but I'm guessing it's a crane. At any rate, it looks good.

Tribal heart

Nuff' said.

Cowboys From Hell (2)

Great looking album art.

Symbol

Not going to pretend I know what it is or where it came from, but it looks cool.

Vacation

Welp, your friendly neighborhood blogmaster is off to Florida for a week. I'll be sure to toss more work up as soon as I return. In the meantime, enjoy these wicked 3-D tattoos!

Cover up

Effin' sweet cover up! (It's a G rated page folks, trying to watch myself) Can anyone not say it's much better now?

Empty boots

I love this piece. Great detail on the rifle and boots.

Chrome looking horse

I've no idea if that is what it actually is, I'm just the author of this page but, it sure looks chrome doesn't it? Mr. Ed with some bling-bling.

Single flower

I'm guessing it's a lotus, but not having much of a green thumb, all I can say for sure is the ink looks pretty damn good. :)

Tiger

More shading techniques easily seen on this jungle cat.

Vampire skull

Very cool, love the shading on this, don't you?

Gremlin?

Ummmm.....gremlin?

Internal combustion engine

Some machinery this fella's toting around.

Jesus

Crown of thorn'd Jesus. (Probably self explanatory!)

Train portrait

Little slow here lately, sorry! But here's a great looking portrait piece.

Wink

Those eyes look great don't they? I'm just glad there isn't a nose placed there....

Patriotic landmass

I've no earthly idea where this is, but I do like it. If anyone knows, by all means tell me and I'll fill in the blank.

Collage

Scorpions, stars and notes, oh my! (Wow. Lamest comment ever.)

Colorful panda chowing down.

Tribal shoulder piece

I'm going to guess this was freehand (like most tribal is, I believe). More of that outer border shading can be seen here to give it some more depth.

Dog portrait

Excellent portrait piece, look at all the detail in it.

Koifish

Another great looking koifish. Great colors!

Conglomeration of skulls

Certainly an original piece! Custom work is always preferred and encouraged at the shop.

Shaded tribal

Different take on a familiar theme. Always unique but this pushes the envelope just a bit more.

Dragonfly

Cool looking dragonfly and a bit of vinework.

Twin celtic knots

Pair of celtic style knots.

Black/grey flamed tribal skull

Interesting black/grey work.

Tattoo news from around the world. If it's related to tattooing, apparently these folks log it here. Interesting stuff. For instance, learned that Megan Fox (from Transformers) said: "I have eight tattoos. All my boyfriends are required to have one and if they don't have one yet, I make them get a tattoo of my name or my face." Interesting but a little arrogant don't you think?
Anyway, if you're interested in tattoo culture related news, it's a good site to keep up with.

Tribal shoulder piece

Outer shading adds a little more to it.

Unhappy kitty

Garfield it is not, but the 3-D depth is excellent, no?

Old school camera

Not exactly something you see everyday, I'm guessing she's a bit of a shutterbug.

Cowboys From Hell

From Pantera's classic, Cowboys From Hell.

Tiki-head

Pretty cool islander themed tat.

Aslan

From the Chronicles of Narnia.
