Where is the best place / website for Japanese tattoo ideas?
I have a Japanese tattoo in mind that I want, its very personal and I have been a lot of ideas'. But where is the best place / website to get a Japanese tattoo idea? I just want more inspiration.
Again, the best thing to do is go straight to the source, which, if not require a therapist (although tattoo artists can put parts of its history in a clear image, as a therapist to clear his mind), but a person who knows about tattoos + Japanese culture. Note that is exactly what you are going to get traced to your skin before any work is done. Often, stores have books from other tattoo artists or pick one of the drift and will give you some ideas furthur. If your work is bad, your reputation is at stake, which is everything in this world!
