Japanese folklore and modern American tattooing come together in this book with more than 100 sheets of tattoo flash that can be drawn on the body in a single session.
Exploring the rich history of Japanese ink drawings and creating easily tattooable images were the priorities of this third book in the Classic Flash series.
The artists applied themes and characters from Japanese mythology, such as yokai, to their traditional American aesthetic. Divided into three sections, one for designs created by the artists individually and one with Flash created together, the book contains designs that each have more complicated backgrounds or filler.
Tattoo collectors and manga-loving enthusiasts who might be intimidated by extremely complex Japanese tattoo designs will be delighted with this colourful, whimsical Flash collection.
