Not Finished going to be a full sleve have a very cool tatooist "Sykes" working with me took inspiration from the volcano thread on TC hope it turns out a fitting tribute?

my ankle and my hubbys calf done by Jaksin down at the Kreepytiki. We brought masks down my hubby had carved and he did the sketches straight from it. Mine has a suffering bastard influence for sure. He doesn't know it yet but we are coming down in the next month or two to finish the job- my ankle is going to be a full cuff of flamey tiki goodness and Justin has another mask he carved for the other calf. COuld not be happier with the tattoos or having my hubbys art on me forever!

Christmas came early for me this year, spent 11hrs at the tattoo shop last night. 3hrs for hand-drawing, and the rest under the gun... I should have eaten lunch. I've always wanted a Polynesian tribal tattoo, but I wanted to honor my Filipino heritage even though I think the Tahitian and Maori styles rock. Most of the pre-contact tattoos were mainly just geometrically repeating patterns, but a lot of the post-contact and modern Polynesian tattoos are simply amazing.

I want to get a tiki tat while at Hukilau. Someone needs to get me drunk and cart me to a tattoo artist. I want a ku on my upper arm.

This is my only tatoo right now. It's on my right calf. I keep making the argument that I need another tat on my left leg so I feel balanced and don't lean when I stand up, but my partner isn't buying it. LOL
