A few Japanese pieces I've finished off

If there's one style of tattooing that's steeped in history and culture Japanese tattooing has to be in the top 3 and it's a style that works well in tattooing because of the dark backgrounds used and the way it can be used to work with the body.

Here's a few pieces I've finished up.
