Author Yoshihiro Togashi created the hit manga series Hunter x Hunter because he liked to collect objects as a hobby. For body art collectors Hunter x Hunter tattoos make for extremely interesting ink designs. In Togashi’s series, Hunters are licensed, skilled individuals that track down secret treasures, rare creatures, and other individuals. Hunter x Hunter started as a Manga series before becoming even more popular as anime television. It has run on and off since 1998 and been a crossover hit in the USA and Japan....

The turtle is no stranger to Western culture, but its Japanese sibling has yet to make a widespread introduction. Dramatic in appearance and viewed as a harbinger of wisdom, prosperity, and longevity, the Japanese turtle may not be a common tattoo choice, but that’s all the more reason to be among the first to adopt it. Depicted with sharp, primordial features and a trailing tail of seaweed (the latter a sign of its regal longevity), the Japanese turtle is often painted in water, a detail that adds yet another rich layer of context to its tattoo rendering....

Sure, the classic Mohawk is rebellious, high maintenance and makes a bold statement, however the variations from the original have certainly paved the way for all sorts of men’s hairstyles. Even businessmen today can safely get away with wearing a Mohawk-like style at the office. With cuts like the Fauxhawk, Eurohawk, and countless other creative styles, it’s no longer only reserved for the more modern, punk impression. Though, you could still go all out and try to break the world record if you wanted to, which by the way is a staggering 44....

You may not live in a pineapple under the sea, but that’s no reason not to savor the undersea world of Spongebob and his nautical buddies. Nickelodeon’s breakout series has enjoyed a decade-long run, with fans of all ages returning to Bikini Bottom year after year.

We gaze in awe at them over the 4th of July and New Year’s Eve, and for many of us there’s no outgrowing the wonder of those festive pyrotechnics. Invented by the Chinese in the 9th century initially to ward off evil spirits, with colored varieties appearing in Europe in the mid 19th century, fireworks have enjoyed an ongoing legacy that has naturally made its way onto the skin. The firecracker tattoo is a show-stopping creation that very nearly rivals its original inspiration....

Most men’s hairstyles in the ’50s,’60s, and 70s were influenced by pop music, and the men’s hairstyles in the ’80s were not an exception. However, in each successive year, more improvements were made on the existing hairstyles, and also more styles were introduced. For instance, in the 1980s, men’s hairstyles were more significant compared to other sizes of hairstyles introduced before. The ’80s styles for guys were very rugged, punky, and diverse....

Fierce and mysterious, the tiger has long represented a creature that rivals the strength of humanity, and its eyes are the gateway to its fortitude. It is in the eyes that we can see its courage and feel its imposing presence. These formidable eyes amaze and inspire humans just as much as they terrorize us, which is the perfect basis for for eerily commanding tattoos. In tattoo form, tiger eyes, or in other words, the eyes of the tiger, might remind us of Survivor’s single greatest hit....

It’s not often a Le Mans-winning automobile hits that market, but that’s exactly what you get with this rare Ferrari 550 GT1.

Depend on Yourself People are going to let you down at some point in life. As sad as that may seem and as angry as it can make you, it’s a fact of life.

Be your own primary resource. Learning how to cook and keep your own space livable are also features of a mature man....

The darkest of Disney Films, Maleficent put a new twist on the tale of Sleeping Beauty by telling the story of Princess Aurora from the perspective of Maleficent, and since then has become an iconic tattoo design.

“Losing is not an option! And neither is giving up!” declares the iconic antagonist Bowser, and his legacy certainly supports this stance. The Mario Bros. nemesis and leader of the Koopa Troop is at once fierce and fumbling, an often comic villain whose fire-breathing skills and equally fiery temper frequently upstage his opponents.
