He is one of my best friends, a retired attorney and world renowned for his body work. Has been on lots of Tattoo Magazines.

So powerful images, Jishin.
Wow!

Gassho,
Kotei sat/lah today.

[Cooperix]

Just lurid curiosity. Is he completely covered with tats?
He's beautiful. Interesting...almost an object.

Bows, Anne ~lahst~

[Jishin]

Yes. Completely. One time we (my wife and I) were over at his house and we were deciding about a movie to go see. He had to get up and go to the bathroom and had his laptop on the table. The screen was dark and my wife touched the computer to bring up a web page to do a Google search on what movie to go see. She was greeted with a tattoo of a dragon on his most intimate body part. He has 3 dragons total. Lesson learned. Never touch a computer without permission.

He had most of his work done by one artist and ran out of space. He wanted his private parts done too and the artist refused. He threatened to go elsewhere and the artist finally agreed.

Well damn! The illiustrated guys! Fine fine work. If I were young I'd have tattoos, no question. They don't look so great on sags.

He is 71 and I am 53. Got mine at age 35. They do change a bit with time.

Reminds me of the famous book ...

That The Illustrated Man has remained in print since being published in 1951 is fair testimony to the universal appeal of Ray Bradbury's work. ... Bradbury presents himself as a nameless narrator who meets the Illustrated Man--a wanderer whose entire body is a living canvas of exotic tattoos. What's even more remarkable, and increasingly disturbing, is that the illustrations are themselves magically alive, and each proceeds to unfold its own story
