Wow this is quite impressive… I really like tattoos as long as they mean something. But having tattoos on your entire body isn’t it a way to hide something? It’s an open question, I am really wondering why people would do that. But I must say that on these pictures it really looks like art pieces.

It can also be seen as an extension of yourself as a person 🙂
Thank you!
I agree. I think the reasons why you’re getting tattooed are very personal and change from one person to another. For some it will be the extension of themselves, for others to immortalize an event in their life and for others just to look cool 🙂
