Irezumi

イレズミ「Irezumi」

This is my latest entry from the LPL, but I figured it deserved a few better shots to see all the detail, so here are some big ass pics  :D

So I tried to keep the tattoos relatively simple,and restrict the pallet to red and black and shades of grey, it's mostly sakura flowers and the odd koi carp, and I did 3 back pieces.
the First Back piece is of kintaro riding a carp, not sure how well that came out, if you know what you're looking at you probably make it out, but I'm not sure a black carp on a black background was the best choice, he's also got 2 more koi carps on the front partially covered by his pants, this one was the 4th to get painted so I was a bit more adventurous with his tattoos.





Not much tattoos on this one, just a few Sakura on the sleeves




Koi carp on one arm and more Sakura on the other



This was the First one to get painted and I didn't really plan his tattoos before hand I just started painting so they probably could have been better, Koi carp back piece




Oni Face back piece mirroring the mask he wears, a koi on one arm (although it looks more like goldfish than a carp), and a lotus flower on the opposite shoulder

Phenomenally inventive springs to my mind. Very well done.

Definitely worth the larger pictures.  Nice work on the tats.
