    I know we have a few tattoo artists here on the board. I was wondering if any could offer me some insight or suggestions. I am plagued by a tribal arm band. I would like to get more work done (traditional and/or "new school") but I would like it to all flow together. Have you seen or done any work that blends well or incorporates a tribal band into the design? The design on my arm is assymetrical has lots of curves. I was thinking of some sort of Tiki theme above it. Any thoughts?

    If all else fails, I may just run my grinder over it.

    Thanks for any ideas

    You should post some pictures of it, so the artists can see the details.

    if you want to do some kind of tiki theme maybe smoke from a volcano can cover it up

    I vote for the grinder......or a chainsaw for the stubborn areas.

    With advice from someone who knows whats up you can make your tribal piece blend into anything.There are many competent artists who could handle the job.Post some pictures and I'll see whats up.I've been a tattooist for 30 years. If your old enough it ain't no bodies buisness but your own.Your allready tattooed go for what ya want.

    Try robbing a 7-11 then you can get one of those black tier drop things. What the hell do tats have to do with hotrods anyway? Go to a tattoo sight. I'm sure there are plenty.

    They both have to do with not being able to leave well enough alone.
