one of my favourite white tats..

few things.. they can be hard to maintain.. they have a tendancy to go slightly yellow, especially if open to a lot of sun exposure..
white shows up better on pale skin, as the ink sits under transparent skin, the darker the skin, the less you can see the ink.

also, they are quite hard to tattoo. the fact that its very hard to see, makes it hard to get the ink evenly throughout the tattoo, so can require many touchups if your artist isnt up to it

 

These are very cool pics and I like the designs very much...the sun is not recommended when you have a white tattoo...I thought that the white shows up better on dark skin...you are right the white tattoos must be made by professionals as it is very difficult

 

I have wanting to get a tatto for a while but haven't been able to decide what I want. When I saw those pictures I just thought CHRIST THAT'S IT!! My skin is pale and the part that I want tattooed has never seen the sun, so I think it might work... I think I'll ask a tattoo guy that I know about it.

 

i'm getting mine on Thursday!!! I'll post pics when it's done. I'm excited to finally do it.

 

it's still new and healing, but here it finally is...
