Tiki tattoo-updated 6/3/2010

Post by Grimbo »

Well I had an old tattoo taking up prime real estate. So I thought I'd find somone to do a cover up. So far so good, 4hrs down probably another 1hr to go for stage one. Eventually I want a 1/2 to 3/4 sleeve.

Thanks for the replies guys.

First up it was done by an artist called Rush at Freestyle Tattoo here in Canberra.

The plan for the rest of the arm is more tiki/tropical/surf/polynesian styled design that I'm working on at the moment.

And lastly, no Trev I'm not from NZ. The tiki that I have tattooed is more loosely based on the tikis of Hawaii.

Cheers
Sam :D 8)
