Just fucking WOW.
Absolutely stunning work.
btw, did i post another photo of this? it looks familiar. i’m too doped out to know right now 🙂
wow that is absolutely beautiful work.
I absolutely love this piece. The monochromatic color scheme definately adds to the “it-ness”.
Totally gorgeous back piece, so elegant looking in those colours.
Wow. I feel like beautiful is too feeble a word for this piece. I am totally amazed.
Holy shit I’m jealous!
Holy shit that is amazing!
Imagine how it looks in reality, ha. I think I dribbled back there half a dozen times atleast.
The guy this is on was part of the Horiren crew/group.
WOW! I absolutely LOVE that backpiece…. wow
that is fucking amazing
Wow. What more can I say?
This might be one of the most amazing tat’s I’ve ever seen.
Who’s the artist?
That is just beautiful! I don’t think any tattoo I could get would compare with that.
I saw this picture in a German Tattoo Magazine. They quote the artist ist “Horiren” (a female) from (of course) Japan.
http://www.horiren.com/ seems to be the HP, but it’s in Japanese.
Quality, quality, quality! ART!
its awesome to see the level of tattooing being done now a days. these artists are really breaking ground while breaking the skin
Absolutely gorgeous, I’m jealous!
oh my gosh im in love with this piece!
Great back tattoo- is the owner a male or a female? Just wondering!
I think I just pooped a little – that’s freaking awesome.
No kidding, I really had a dream about this backpiece on me a few months ago. Except there was no dragon, just the phoenix. It was even all red and had geometric patters with the feathers. How awesome is that? But this backpiece really is just awesome. Literally the stuff dreams are made of.
fuckin awesome piece of art making me a little jealous…it looks so perfect…I’d love to see the real thing!
Gods that’s fucking amazing…brilliant!
I’d love to see more of this fellow’s work – this is a really, really solid tattoo.
Without a doubt the best backpiece. Gorgeous
dragon and phoenix, and the universe stays in balance, i’m stunned by this simply amazing
whoaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
I have no words to describe this tattoo. It is the most beautiful backpiece I have ever seen. Looks like someone glued a painting on his back.
I can’t stop repeating ‘wow’.
I just love this backpiece!!!!
dayum that is detailed and extremely interesting!:)
this is the first thing on Modblog to actually make me stop and go “wow” while scrolling down the page
i’m in love with it
Wow. Just…wow. That is beautiful.
this is one of the best back pieces i have ever seen and realy gives me ideas for when i get mine done later this year
gorgeous colours.
breathtaking!
The most beautiful tatoo I’ve ever seen. F* good job!
Shit Shit Shit, I’ve been planning on a pheonix fight a dragon tattoo for ages!!!!*bangs head on wall*
WHAT!! *pickes jaw off the floor, you make me want to quit being an artist, for I question my true talent , for real thats just ridiculous. and to the skin its living on, you are super lucky to find a da vinci like that, f*ck im drooling..
wow her work is great i was actually looking for her sitcuz i want her to do my back piece
GO KICK SEIRYUU”S ASS, SUZAKU!!!
My favourite adaptation of this myth ever!
thats probaly the best looking tattoo iv ever seen
That is GORGEOUS.
The second thing I thought was “What a bitch that would be if there was a red-ink allergy!”
i think your back piece is amazing ive been wanting one done for a long time but i keep changing my mind on the design. i have numerous facial piercings and a few small tatoos but thats nothing compared to this tattoo! i love that people have the guts to express themselfs in such a powerful way i feel that people should be a lot more open to this kind of expression after all your body is your canvas and to make it even more beuatiful is an amazing thing! xxx
