I am a huge fan of Maori style tattoos. Here is one artists page with many fine examples. If I had the cash, I would be flying to where ever he is working at the time and having some work done. Some really beutiful pieces, and all with a special meaning.

Family Crest is great, Mine is in momorey of Over the horizon navigation in small boats. it was tradition to get a nautical tattoo, so being in Japan I decided to get a Japanese style tattoo.
I got a male and female koi.
My arms are also Japanese inspired, one is a fire dragon in water, the other is a water dragon in fire. to symbolize the white guy living in the Japanese culture and still being part, but at the same time not fitting in.

Thanks for the link Magnus . I havn't any tats'

I'd just love that back tattoo done by hand. I've always told my wife If I ever get to New Zealand I'd love a tribal tattoo. Having seen these I'm not so sure.I just loved some of those Dragons. Copehagen is a weekend trip from Oslo.Who knows

I don't have any tattoos (even thought my eldest daughter has been going out with a tattoo artist for over a year). I just haven't found one I like well enough to keep the rest of my life. I did read somewhere that in areas where wearing a sgian dubh is illegal some kilted warriors will tattoo one in the appropriate place. That struck me as a real possibility for a first tattoo, that way even if I'm wearing my socks rolled or pushed down I can still "carry" my sgian dubh.

Funny that you mentioned that Jamie, I too would have one of a sgian dubh if I were to ever get one, so that one gets my vote Ron.

I drew my own celtic knot and then had it done on me. This was actually my first (and at the moment only) tat. It's not a great pic, but it can be seen in vivisector 3 pic in my gallery.

I wanted ink for a LONG time and wanted to get something that I wouldn't get sick of in a year or two...

My Mom's maiden name is Ball and my Father's mom's name is McKeown. I have a crest on either calf and get LOTS of compliments on them. It's VERY appropriate to show off with a kilt and it is part of your heritage, so it's not like a little butterfly or tribal tatto on your arm that you may get sick of in a couple years.
