Just thought I would ask if anyone knows of any really large hardback (the bigger the better) books with tattoo pictures, interesting pictures, body modification pictures or weird and wonderful stuff?

I recently bought – http://www.amazon.co.uk/Black-Grey-Tattoo-Traditional-Photorealism/dp/3934020852/ref=pd_sim_b_5

and love them but I am after other large books if you know of any?

Cheers

I like

Color Tattoo Art by Marisa Kakoulas (josh woods has work in it)

Inside the Tattoo Circus by Kristin Misser (part by Sean Herman on the fascination with horror)

Mammouth Book of Tattoo Art by Lal Hardy (because it is Lal Hardy)

The Tattooed Lady by Amelia Osterud (more cool history)

Awesome, thanks folks. Will take a look at those and probably buy them all lol

I buy a lot of books from Taschen that are large hardbacks with some interesting photos.

Tattoo prodigy I cant find anywhere on the web for sale?

Bloodworks is wow damn expensive for 1 book £360.00 here in the UK, is it worthwhile?

you might have to buy tattoo prodigies direct from mike devires, or it might be out of print. bloodworks is expensive but damn its such an awesome book. well worth it, only if you have the money to spend.

Yep I bought it from him direct.

Ordered all the others aswell, only one I havent yet is the Bloodworks although this book looks awesome. I sent an email in the USA asking what cost the postage is as the book in the USA is only $200.00 which works out less than half price of here in the UK!

Why we get ripped off with always higher prices:mad:
