OneEye Posted November 7, 2013 at 03:32 PM Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 at 03:32 PM The first is 香港 or Hong Kong. The second is 黃鶯 or oriole (or yellow warbler, songbird, etc...not exactly sure). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skylee Posted November 7, 2013 at 04:31 PM Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 at 04:31 PM Is Joey Pang famous? They don't look very good compared to David Beckham's Chinese tattoo. Those at #6 are 樂 (happy / music), 新 (new), 武侍道 (I assume that it means 武士道/bushido. This is no good at all.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanyee Posted November 8, 2013 at 03:54 PM Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 at 03:54 PM I think joey pang is famous. She own the tattoo temple in hongkong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneEye Posted November 8, 2013 at 04:32 PM Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 at 04:32 PM One can be famous and still suck at what they do. Look at pop music. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingo-ling Posted November 9, 2013 at 05:24 PM Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 at 05:24 PM Hell of a lot better than most Chinese tattoos I've seen. Of course, that's not saying much... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh8811 Posted November 10, 2013 at 04:58 AM Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 at 04:58 AM I like the script in those tattoos. It really looks like a brush was used! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparrow Posted December 2, 2013 at 11:24 PM Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 at 11:24 PM I dislike Chinese tattoos, but IMO those are beautifully written. Beckham's Chinese tattoos are pretty nice—but I prefer these simply for their thick, brush-like ink-work—which is not a statement on quality in either direction. As for your Chinese tattoo, in addition to whatever input you get from this forum, I recommend you go to a nearby campus, find the Chinese department, and ask some teachers to give you a translation—teachers who are native speakers. Seeing as tattoos are costly and permanent, a second, third, and fourth opinion isn't a bad idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley Posted December 3, 2013 at 11:33 AM Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 at 11:33 AM I find it really hard to believe these are tattoos. If they are then wow I am impressed and that's saying something from someone who hates tattoos but I don't understand how they were done to get that brush effect. It looks just like someone has taken a big brush and written on their bodies. Does it wash off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruben von Zwack Posted December 3, 2013 at 12:35 PM Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 at 12:35 PM Shelley, as far as I know, the procedere is that you have an original and mechanically transfer that onto the client's skin, then follow that with the needle. So I guess if you have a good original artwork to start with, and the tattooist is skilled enough, there are no limits as to what you can do.
