I went to Tahiti and really enjoyed the Marquesan Tattoo style going on over there. It's tribal but a bit cartoonish, here is some examples:
  
I like the way they always manage to insert multiple Tiki faces in the design.
By the way, Kon-Hemsby, I really like your Easter Island dudes, they are great.

Really nice tattoos! If I can get the pics posted, here's a couple I have. I'll apologize now for the bad pics...I'm taking them myself and they're on my calves!
This one is by my friend, Jime' Litwalk, in Detroit. (http://www.eskustoms.com/) The pic doesn't do it justice at all.

This one was done by another friend of mine, Randy Muller, in New Orleans (http://www.eyecandytattoo.com/all.htm).
Kinda hard to see it all, but there's a little stone tiki that got knocked over by the big wooden guy.

Thanks! I'm really happy with them. I'll probably get at least one or two more tiki oriented pieces. Tiki-Toa...what's the scoop on the Tiki Pa'ina?!

Never mind...I just found it in the events section. I'll mention it to Jime' and Jeff...maybe they/we can make it out for that! How far is it from Detroit?

BARNETT, great tatoos. I am partial to the first one, but both are fabulous. I have none myself. I am a whimp.

Check out this guy's tattoo:
I think he copped out with the 'Independent' logo, but you never know which came first.

I looks like he's starting to fill in the "mouth" part on the bottom, so maybe the independant part will be covered up.
