Looking for Koi images 4 tat

Submitted by Catmama on Tue, 08/05/2008 - 3:43pm.

I have a consult tomorrow with a tat artist to start my sleeve. I'm looking for some Koi images. What I'm trying to find are koi with a more *softer* face, less authentic Japanese style face. (which tend to look more masculine).

Anyone have any links?

TIA

Hey Catmama ~ I have looking for koi images as well and have been disappointed so far actually. I feel like I've seen what I want, but now I can't find it to show someone. Do you have an artist? I've been looking for an artist - the one's that do koi "well" here that I've found are great, but I'm not seeing what I want. Its very frustrating.

Are you here in Los Angeles (or near?)
I have to run out the door, but I'll PM you his info/link. I like the idea of meeting and talk/going over ideas before the actual work. I will not pick flash off the wall, but will bring in flash ideas for him to work with. I personally believe a good artist can do most work (unless you're getting into portraits). The bigger goal is sorting through the hacks (which, sad to say are a pleanty) HOWEVER, the tattoo craze in the last decade has brought out a lot of talented art students who, once given the practice, seem to do well on skin.

More later.
