1.0 out of 5 stars Not tattoo friendly May 10, 2012

By EMS

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

I own a tattoo shop in NW PA and do a lot of religious imagery / walk in style stuff. We're always looking for more crosses as they're very popular. This book however is pretty unusable. Most of these designs are computer generated and will not translate into a tattoo well at all. The line work, coloring, and shading represented have no relationship to the way a tattoo is done or even approached design wise. Many of the designs would be more appropriate for Henna tattooing, or a bad t-shirt design you might find in Walmart. There were about 4 or 5 decent celtic crosses in there but that is about the only redeeming value. If you want some decent cross references for real tattooing then I would not recommend this book at all.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for tattoo artists June 27, 2011

By Richie Jingles

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

This is what happens when an artist who never held a tattoo machine in his life, who has absolutely no concept of the strenghts and limitations of tattooing, tries to draw a book of tattoo designs. There are a few good designs here and there, but the majority have teeny tiny lines way too close to each other, designs that just don't translate well into the skin, and the worst sin of all--- designs that WON'T SELL! If you are looking for cross/religious designs that are beautifully drawn, strong and simple with plenty of room to add your own custom shading, tight, precise outlines, and best of all, WILL SELL--- I highley recommend "Religious designs vol 1 and 2, by Steve Soto of Goodfellas Tattoo. Those books are a great investment, real moneymakers!
