I totally agree - the skill level is excellent. Not my thing, but cool for whoever is willing to pay for the art.

Odd response. No one is knocking the tat's or saying that anyone should or shouldn't get one. I posted this because the artistry is outstanding.

Get real, folks, who can say they've never thought of getting some of their own ink, perhaps showing a diesel locomotive, an oil well pump, 1 or more dollar signs and the words "Who is John Galt?"

Its their call to make..they have to live with the consequences (why I never got a tattoo). I'm more impressed with the level of artistry of each of the tattoos, even as repulsive or weird as some are.

A couple of those (like the star on the shoulder) are pretty darned awesome, tho others (the bullet holes, or the goofy guy crawling out of the woman's back with the wrench) kinda make me wonder what these folk were thinking.

Will they still love their body art when they're 90? I can see it now - "Grandma, who is that young guy crawling out of your back?"

Ibam not a tattoo person at all but these were so incredible I might have to Change my mind. These were awesome. Thanks for sharing AJ!
