Call him Master, mister!

GOOD GOD. I know there's something about skull that is so everlastingly cool, but this is way too cool. Awesomely cool. Now I've said cool too many times but I don't think it's enough for this one. IT'S A TOTAL COOLNESS!!!!! I even want one of these designs to be my next tattoo reference. The tiger head and Japanese mask design are great also, but the skull collections must have been the greatest, thanks to Master Hisroshi, the last living legend specializing in Irezumi, full body Japanese tattoos.

Master Hiroshi has been tattooing for over 35 years and his tattoos are usually outlined by free-hand using machine, but color is inserted using the traditional Tebori or Japanese hand poke tattooing technique.











"All of these jewelry pieces are designed by Horiyoshi III, the master himself, and fabricated by our in-house jewelry designer Naoki Hidaka better known as Creep. All products are produced in Japan on a limited run basis to ensure the authenticity and exclusivity of his name and work remains the symbol of his artistic legacy."

I adore him and his works of art so very much. Now, who wouldn't?
