The style is called tribal. I have a couple of this style myself. They will soon be covered or incorporated into real artwork. I was really into tribal when I was your age. it happens. But now that I’ve gotten much more into tattoos and the amazing artists and artwork that are out the, I want something more complex than plain black lines. I want some quality shading. I want a tattoo that has some artistic merit rather than a stencil and a bunch of black ink.

Yeah, tribal.
Never liked it at all, never will. Fat boring geometric black lines, with little to no creativity put into them.
My personal opinion anyway, I’ll get off my high horse :rolleyes:

As the others said its tribal, go on google for pics or even ask a tattoo artist to draw one up for you. x

Well seeing as its not from an actual tribe, I’m gonna say it’s generic, run-o-the-mill tribal. This particular one is really badly done, too.
You said the guy designed it himself… so its a safe bet that its not culture specific.
If you like the shape of it, print it out and take it to your artist. They will be able to draw something up for you that looks a lot cleaner.
