For the background? Colors, colors and more colors.

Plenty of colors still to be added m8, going for a bright colorful tiger and green maples, i think the black will bring the best out in that!

Cheers for the input though, mind the picture was taken straight after my session so it wont be total black!

Yeah, you’re probably right. The black may just bring good contrast to the colors 🙂

I’m no fan of the asian style, but I am a great fan of good work, so I’m very much looking forward to seeing that thing finished.

Cheers for the input anyway!

Probably just 1 more session to go although i may do 2 smaller sessions due to money restraints, will post the updates as and when i’ve been inked.

Any recommendations or advice on colors etc are welcome, i’ve pretty much gave the artist free rein so far and im really pleased with the results, can’t wait to see the finished article now!!!

Traditional Japanese…I love it. I’m getting a sleeve within the next 6 months and am wondering what combo to use. Either Dragon and Koi, or Tiger and Phoenix, foo dog…not sure yet.

Looks great. the black and grey background makes the color on the tiger that much more stunning. I know I’m the third to ask but haven’t seen an answer,,,,,who did it? Been seen lots of Tiger Tattoos lately and enjoying it! Thanks for sharing.
