Eyebending Tribal Suit

By Shannon • Apr 24th, 2008 • Category: ModBlog

This tattoo is nuts! If you look at just one small section of it, it’s just boring neotribal that’s been done a zillion times, but as a full body suit, it’s pretty wild looking! It looks like a fabric print I think… (I’ve seen closeup photos by the way, so it’s definitely real if you’re suspicious).

  1. perfect!amazing!unique!

  2. I’m usually not a fan of tribal, but this definitely proves that dedication to a theme can pay off.

  3. who is that guy?

  4. That is the fuckin nuts

  5. Haha that guy must LOVE tribal tatoos :P. As much as I have a general dislike for generic tribal tattoos I do like how it does look like a fabric pattern. Definately snazzy.

  6. That’s definitely dedication to a theme, if nothing else.

  7. That’s commitment.

  8. looks great

  9. i’me not a fan of tribal tattoos but i have respect for the man who put this tattoo

  10. I love the bit around his bellybutton. The dragons had the potential to look wierd with it I think but they fit really well into it

  11. This is brilliant!!!!

  12. just… wow. one would think that a design like this would be hard on the eyes, too busy or something, but it’s remarkably well-executed. i think it’s because it’s not the super thick and sharp tribals, but something more curved and intricate.

    i kind of thought it looked like a thorny plant or something, heh. beautiful, either way!

  13. I love the half-assed kinda symmetry to it in places. Looks like sweet wall paper.

  14. I was whistling when I opened modblog this morning and this took the whistle right out of me.

    I’m not sure I like it per se, but it’s really amazing.

  15. Wow, that’s awesome!

  16. i think this melted my rods and cones.kudos though

  17. We cant stop here! Its bat country!

  18. Wow…it’s looks like little creepy crawlies sprouting from his bunghole, haha.

  19. hehehe… he looks like wallpaper

  20. wow…that guys tattoo artist must hate him!!……

  21. Erm… I think it’s a dog? On a boat?

    Damn I was never any good at magic eye’s

  22. I really like the dragons

  23. It doesn’t hurt as much when I cross my eyes at it. :)

  24. side dragons looks really good (:

  25. eh. does nothing for me

  26. Woah that is totally fucking with my eyes. I’m not really digging it, but it’s an interesting tattoo none the less.

  27. saweeeet

  28. I actually really like how there doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason or symmetry to this, even though I am usually a lover of symmetry!

  29. This is beautiful!! Never seen anything like it!

  30. does it remind anyone else of william morriss?
    so rad

  31. how fun is that!

  32. Well, that’s just different. looks like it should be all flocked and fuzzy…

  33. Pictures like that are worth to be sold as calenderprints.

  34. I really love this! I’m not normally a fan of tribal work, but this is one of my favourite bodysuits I’ve seen. It’s really visually striking.

  35. Looks great! :-)

  36. I’ve got a pair of Emilio Cavallini tights that looks like that. He doesn’t need any tights =)

  37. Fan-fuckin’-tastic. Wow, what dedication.

  38. lol - my first thought was that if I were hungover, this is the last guy I would want around. even perfectly sober I find it a bit dizzying. my second thought was that the tattoos over his butt crack fit together nicely, creating a really seamless image.

  39. What I find amazing and hilarious is that (nope: on April 26th, 08 at 1:03am) was looking at the dude’s butt crack….lol
