I drew a thing for the guy I'm dating. He works at the Renaissance Faire as the king of the barbarians, a Maori named Rapatoa. I figured if he was a pokemon trainer, he'd have a blastoise.
I've never drawn tattoos like this before, especially not Ta Moko, and I was really pleased with how it came out. I knew I wanted the shell to be COVERED in it. I really hope I did them justice. I used so many reference pictures for this lol.
You can find Ricky (Rapa) on Instagram @tortugakid!
