Horiyoshi III free handing like that is pretty crazy to watch.
Meaning in other cultures tattoos are always tricky territory. I find it pretty interesting how many tattooists you get doing Japanese work. I always wonder if there's some meaning in the composition some of them might be missing. It's interesting how cultures tattoos have spread so far though nowadays.
One of my friends at work speaks Russian and was really fascinated with the Russian Criminal Tattoo Encyclopedia's. He had loads to say about it all because his other half's Russian and they spend a lot of time over there.
