 What a waste. February 16, 2008
I personally think this is a waste. I bought this from a Books-A-Million for about nine bucks. It was on sale and it was in plastic packaging,
I thought it would be worth it by looking at the size.
Most of the concepts, which are nothing special, look like they'd be in a child's colouring book. It was a huge let down as far as a concept book goes. The designs look the same with a few different details. It's not worth wasting your money on.
 Good source of design ideas September 9, 2007

Lora S. Irish is a talented artist and this plain book is a nice step-stone for designers and other artists to glean ideas, and not just for tattoos. As a matter of fact, I don't really think the designs in the book are very contemporary as far as body-art designs go today. While not the most complicated set of designs, she shows very well how to increase their complexity and interest. Her line-drawings are supplemented by shaded drawings which illustrate how the design can be embellished and come to life. As a reference or guide, this book is very useful. It is rather thick to be copied or scanned and you will have to either remove the pages or break the back to successfully do either, unless you are hand-copying with transfer paper.
I highly recommend it as an addition to your design-source library for pyrography (wood burning), carving, painting, and yes, even for a tattoo.

This book is a totally waste of paper, time and money. Is one of the most awful books I have acquired. Is not really a tattoo book. It is more like a kindergarden "color the figures" books. I want my money back!!!!!!!!!!
