Photos of Maori/Polynesian leg tattoo

Hi,

On October the 21st I posted some pictures of a lower leg tattoo design:












Yesterday I received pictures from the customer with the final tattoo.
It's really nice to see how the design turned out and fits exactly.

You can see that both sides of the tatoo design above create a really nice pattern on the back side of the leg:













I'm a big fan on this kind of "band tattoos", so if you are looking for a similar band on your lower- or upper leg/arm, please feel free to contact me.

Kind regards, Mark Storm

Lower leg tattoo mix Maori / Samoan style

Hi there,

At the moment, things are quite busy and I get a lot of requests for custom designs, sometimes up to 5 or 6 a day...! :)
Really nice ofcourse, but unfortunately my time is limited and I really want to focus on each design, so I have to pick and choose the designs that I really enjoy and fit my style.
My apology for all people I have to dissapoint...

A few days ago I received an e-mail from a customer living in the UK. He was looking for a tattoo for his lower leg, mainly the calf, but partially wrapping around his leg.
It had to be something similar to this mixed Maori / Samoan inspired tattoo design I did a few weeks ago.

These pieces are my favourites, especially in a symmetrical design, because it just looks really great and clean.

First I started with a template from the measurements of the leg and roughly sketch out the lines of the tatoo:
















The two big koru curles will wrap around the sides of the calf and the vertical row of spearheads will be centered on the back of the leg. The Samoan pattern will wrap around to the front of the leg, just below the knee.

After a few hours of adding the detailed patterns, scanning and retouching, I added the shading and gradients in Photoshop.

The final design looks like this:

shin and lower leg tribal tattoo design

Hi!

A quick update on the tattoo design I showed you earlier. It's the lower leg tattoo (knee to ankle) in a tribal mixed style. I really enjoyed this design for some reason. It has a great symmetry, which makes the tattoo look nice and clean. This morning I finished the first pencil sketch and sent it to my customer.

Here's a preview of the tattoo design:

I'm also working on a large number of tattoo designs for my portfolio.
If everything works out, I'll upload the new designs to my webshop in March or April.
The plan is to have around 30 or 40 new images that can be purchased online. The first 5 sketches have already been drawn and worked out. The first tattoos are for the forearm and have some nice realistic feathers incorporated.

Kind regards, Mark Storm
