To tattoo or not to tattoo...

Lately there has been some of discussion about models and their tattoos. Some models even participated in the comments section themselves. Personally I don't really mind tattoo's, as long as they are subtle and/or artistic. On Asiansweethearts blog I found this one. A pretty Asian girl with a huge tattoo of a dragon across her back. Asiansweetheart thinks it's one of those henna tattoos, which are not permanent. Let's hope so! ;-)

More tattoo babes:

Maya Simone
Unknown model
Magdalena Spike
Celeste Von
Jenny O
Jeri Lee
Lianne Lin

On a first glance I would say it's Photoshopped. Especially looking at the vagueness on the left and on her right shoulder.

Yeah, it is kinda vague on the edges... Hmmm... well, never mind, I just wanted to address the tattoo issue ;-)

This pic is definitely a fake - the model is unmistakably Jun Kusanagi, who is tattoo-free (thank God!).

check out www.ymmi.nl

I don't care for big tatoos, but this one is quite interesting and she's captivating!

Wow, you managed to find a Dutch Asian girl neither Marco nor Robin knew about! Proabably not the prettiest girl I've ever seen, but a nice body and an interesting site.

The original pic of Jun can be found here:

yeah, well you should run her site through Google translation...she offers an interesting range of services. As bad as the automatic translation comes out, it's a real "eye opener." LOL

Interesting that someone would attribute a fake tattoo like that to a tattoo artist on the Artgazine.com website. That's a site for original art and photography from Thai artists. The name of the tattoo artist credited with this shot is Plaitattoo.

That is definitely the same photo as the one at the link Dr. Lee gave. And there is another photo of Jun at that link that shows up with a fake tattoo over at Artgazine.com.

Perhaps they mean Photoshop artists? ;-)

I like tattoos. On women, if they're well done, they can be very sexy.

My photo of Masuimi Max after i asked her to lift her short to photograph her tattoo.

i meant shirt, not short =)

OMG! that is one enormous and hideous tattoo , IMHO

Yeah, Masuimi is one seriously mixed up girl. She's a good model though (with the tats airbrushed out).

see the art man. the art. if you see the traditional tatto of japan both on men & women, you will respect the art of tattoing the whole body. just simply you don't like it or you find it gross, does'nt mean that is not an art! but nowdays there are lots of good tatoos but placed on the wrong spot you know what i mean?

I agree, tattooing can be Art.

//had to edit comment bacause of lay-out problems
Here are some clear pictures of the tattoos of Masuimi Max, which I just found on another internet site. The sword looks real and dangerous te me.

I just don't like tatoo on women. It's preventing me to see real skin :P. Is it clean, or full of freckle or acnes... :)

We can now add Justene Jaro to the list [which saddens my little heart.]
