Customer Reviews
Stunning!
176 pages of truly beautiful colour photographs. Many different styles and examples of classic, traditional tattoos and more modern styles. Fascinating! The tattoos pictured are all of the highest standard. No question, this is one of the very best books on (Japanese) tattooing.
Brilliant
Everything i wanted from the book. Loads of great photos, going from old style full body to the newer one point style, and a few that mix the both. The written portion of the book concentrates on looking at profiling many of the best artists over in Japan and how they work and influenced. Really worth it if you are interested in tattooing and how it has changed over the generations in japan and how it is still changing. 5 stars easy, well worth it.
