first off, i bought this because I am a tattoo artist and I have used Tattoo Johnny's site for references at times as well as clients bringing me in images from that site. I wanted to add this book to my collection, seeing as how some of the designs on there are $10 for just an individual design. This book was under $10 when i bought it - so economically 3,000 designs for $10 instead of 1 design for $10 - just seems logical right.
well, i was hoping there would be some Ambigrams in here - but there aren't. Also hoping to see some Graffiti and Tribal - but there is no section dedicated to either genre. There are some tribal designs in the book, but not a tribal section. The categories as follows:
Angels & Demons/Animals/Armband, Lower Back, & Belly Designs/Japanese & Asian/Butterflies & Insects/Suns & Moons/Dragons/Fairies/Flowers/Sea Life/Patriotic & Military/Pinups/Religious & Spiritual/Skulls & Horror/Traditional/Zodiac.
The book is 351 pages long and 90% of the pics are full color.
I was hoping there would be a lil sampling of each genre in here - like ambigrams, lettering, biomech, graffiti, etc but there really isn't. There is a sampling of the categories i referenced above that the book has but these pics are pretty old school - i know some people who would get some of these, but i don't see a whole lot of ppl browsing thru this book like my others...
If i knew it was going to be like this, i would of bought a better book. I'm not totally disappointed with it, cuz I am going to use it... but there are better books out there. If Tattoo Johnny comes out with a sequel - i would hope it will have better art in it, plus the other stuff i mentioned - graffiti, biomech, etc..
so far the best book i have come across the is the tattoo encyclopedia - black cover, sells for about $50. best one - doesn't include graffiti either - but there's loads of stuff in it.
great & recommend it, February 13, 2011
