Cool tattoos, well done too. My only concern is that when the guy drops his arm down and is walking around that massive skull is gonna be very upside down.
I love the colors and style of his sleeves it all seems to connect really well.
hahahah very true sez.
i find its always hard 2 make people get names on there wrist the rite way round
Very nice ^_^
The colours are great.
Surely there is no “right way round”?….I have script on my arms that i would rather read, not the rest of the world…
But yeah, nice colours!
So colorful. I love it.
um love it. its gorgeous.
Nicely done. Colorful. Beautiful.
See you’re looking at it the wrong way Sez. The skull is right side up when he’s got his dukes up. Which is the only way you will see him. Kicking your ass.
But yeah, really solid work.
Holy Contrast Batman!
wowzers! that’s some gorgeous colour!
stunning speechless
That is WOW!! I love it!! Please let my colors look that nice 😉
HA! That skull will look fucking awesome when he rocks the horn at conserts! Lamers 😉
Colorful and looks great.
Stunning Color!!! A+++++
Or Monkey Kind, covering his face crying in the corner after I kick his ass haha. Besides, Im sure he’s a nice enough chap not to hit girls.
Nice t-shirt! the Joe D’Amato’s “Il ritorno della morte” hahahaha
Maybe this guy italian?
gorgeous! skull is sweet.
Nice and bright, just the way I like them!
the colors are brilliant….
the blues…drool…
wow, so vivid.
That dudes arms lOOk sick
those colors all meddle together very nicely, wonderful work!
That shit is tight bro, working on a sleeve right now but so far the color’s are only like a aqua blue and black I dont know if adding more colors will make it look not as good idk…
It´s my arms. and ii´s no mistake that the skull is upside down. And the only time you´ll se my arm drop Sez is whey i point at you and tell you to stay down after yout tap´d out after some ground work and a rear naked choke.
On topic:
The colors is sick. Mats Lyborg is a world class artist and my skincolour is very pale and so it’s a good chance that the colours lock the same on me as they do in the jar.
iv´e got som new sick work done by mats at built to last tatto since these photo. i have both my ribs full covered, letters on my fingers and a massive chestpiece. all done by Mats Lyborg. and 2010 is fully booked on my knees and the entire back pics will come here at BME later when iv´e got the time. to post them.
Gorgeous! Never seen anything better. Never ever. LOVE this…
I wish I can hear the horse whinny to me one day.
Ludde: Maybe someday you will… I hope you will.
