Real nice book,
By
This review is from: The Mammoth Book Of Tattoos (Paperback)
Love the photographs and bios on the artists. The only thing that disapointed me was the size: very thick but not small in width and lenght... makes it diffucult to easily go through all the pages because the book always has a tendency to close.

Look no further..,
By L. Bloom - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Mammoth Book Of Tattoos (Paperback)
I usually don't like 'flash tattoo' books of any sort. Unless it's a very genre specific book with very high quality photos likeBushido : Legacies of the Japanese Tattoo by Takahiro Kitamura. Mammoth Tattoos is not a collection for the 'I must get this tattoo for my next inking' folks... Leave that for the flash books and various tattoo magazines out there. Unlike all those though--The Mammoth Book Of Tattoos had me floored as I had never before seen such a staggeringly fresh and inspirational collection of art on almost every page. And certainly every genre. Each artist and their art represented by very high quality photos. I had to pick what I didn't like and came up with three out of the 80 artists represented. This really is a fascinating (coffee-table/reference)book for anyone who appreciates graphic design, classic and modern and yes art which only happens to be on an epidermal canvas. 15 of 17 people found the following review helpful

This book is perfect for you if you're not familiar with the Tattoo/Flash/Savage magazines. Personally I've seen all this stuff a million times before in the previously mentioned magazines. The only thing this has that mags don't is nudity. I had to hide a few pages from prying eyes. My cynical side wonders why Kim Saigh, Corey Miller, and Hannah Aichitson were included. La Ink anyone??? Overall good.

Huge help in planning/designing first tattoo,
By J. Holland - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Mammoth Book Of Tattoos (Paperback)
I've been planning for my first tattoo since booking my appointments with my chosen artist 3 months in advance (since he was booked up that far out). This book really helped me consider the design/content I will have custom drawn, not only because of the large number of tattoo's shown in this book by top artists, but also because the Japanese tattooing style is very well represented (which is what I am getting). I also liked that there were quite a few large tattoos in this book, and not just full of smaller shoulder-sized tattoos.There are also other styles represented, but I would say 40% of the book is Japanese style tattoos. To me it has been invaluable, and given the inexpensive cost, would be worth having for the seriously tattoo'ed as well as the tattoo admirerer as an eclectic coffee table book (although there's some nudity in it, so keep that in mind for the under 18 crowd). |
