There are good tattoos, great tattoos and simply awesome work....THIS, however, is all in a class of its own. I am beyond impressed. I personally have two of 4 tattoos that are very much Japanese so hold a near reverence for this work.

There's something about this piece that holds a uniqueness that I can't put my finger on. Very well done and good attention to the art. This piece was obviously done with love and care. Kudos to the artist.
