Wow this is a really unique Where The Wild Things are tattoo – clearly based on movie no book though.

He has created so many more inspiring designs since this original post I just had to update it!

Tattoo artist Yann Travaille has made his name in the over populated field of tattoo design with these astonishingly refreshing designs.

*UPDATE* – I have also posted Lionel Fahy’s work in response to the comments. I am nice like that…

Xoil – Needles Side Tattoo

The work of Xoil Needles Side Tattoo is absolutely bloody incredible – ‘like’ him on Facebook here. Massively inspiring art even if you are not into tattooing as such.

Fairest tattoo of them all

Agree with Hurricane Vanessa that these tattoos takes a love of Disney art work love way too far. Incredible tattoo work though to be fair & quite beautiful to look at…

LOVE THIS? Then you may be interested in The Pocket Book Of Vagina Cakes?

Anatomical Neck Tattoo

Lush neck anatomy tattoo taken from Atlas of Anatomy by Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery posted over at Street Anatomy.

Bennett Barch got this tattoo after spending years in medical school and residency, “I decided to get the tattoo as a symbol of the effort I put into my career.” I think I like the line version as much as the color. Well done!
The tattoo was done by Chicago-based tattoo artist, Scott Fricke.

German tattoo makeover

So last night the rather delicious @jackgraham decided my Joy Division tattoo was in need of a German photoshop makeover and what a great job he did too. Utterly random but I love it.

 

The reasons are not entirely clear (?!?) but he’s blaming the book below. Thanks again Jack! xx

 

 

Xoil – INCREDIBLE Tattoos

These tattoos from Xoil are some of the most incredible designs I have seen for years – beautiful design and 100% unique. If you are going to look at one set of images online today then make it these (via Nerdcore). If you are interested in joining the waiting list then Xoïl is a tattooer at Needles Side Tattoo in Thonon-les-Bains, France.

Tattoos & Tentacles

Tattoos & Tentacles is an stunning new book / photographic prints from photographer Julian Murray and marks the end of a great art series – a bargain at $50 (it would also be rude not to mention that of course squid porn is to date the most viewed post on this entire blog).

Stay Puft Tattoo

 

Blood Testing Made Simple

Another awesome post from Street Anatomy featuring the incredible anatomical tattoos of Professor Richard Sawdon Smith and the process of being tattooed alongside the process of drawing blood.
