    I was bored and saw this done by Den Yakovlev.

    Few similarities but done completely different 🙂

    The little slash marks on her skin, the bow on her drape, the thorns:)

    It just reminded me of mine 🙂

    They do look similar. Both have really well-executed anatomy. I think I like the one on the right a little better, and I think because of the greater contrast, it will age better.

    the thing that den does so well, is use black in the background to make the subject pop out.

    Peterpoose….what do you expect? You have amazing work. Of course people will see it and say “I want that”
    If you don’t want people copying your work then the only way is to keep it to yourself. But please don’t do that. Lol

    lol nah I know this.

    I really like the way Den has done the ribs!

    I was thinking that Dmitriy if I remember got this from a calendar girl and so there must be 12 variations of the same woman 🙂

    Or you go to a crap artist and get a crap tattoo that no one wants.

    Both Madonna and Kanye wore a crown of thorns. It’s the same concept, but doesn’t seem to be copied or inspired by yours.
    But then again – All art is imitation 🙂 Both beautiful tattoos.
    Even if Den is a nazi. Good luck getting art from him, last I heard he’s banned from most conventions outside of Russia.. At least in Europe!

    I would get tattooed by him. We are just making a tattoo not looking for a friend

    If his beliefs are truly nazi, I couldn’t let him work on me. My humanitarian standards may be low, but not that low. And that’s not even considering the fuckwit cunt part.

    Why support someone like him? He doesn’t deserve to breathe, let alone receive income no matter how talented he is.

    That statement right there is as bad as he is. Think about it you have become what you hate.
    I’m not supporting his views at all just pointing out that.

    I wouldn’t let him tattoo me, but I can’t say he shouldn’t be alive because of his beliefs..
    He’s Russian(I think..), and quite frankly, Russia isn’t comparable to most other societies just yet. He’s got a lot of clients getting nazi images, so clearly he’s not alone.
    I do however agree that he shouldn’t be allowed on all tattoo conventions. I think it first came up around a German convention, and clearly, displaying nazi tattoos there would be sort of an issue.

    There is still a fairly strong presence of right wing extremism and nationalism in Scandinavia, Russia, Balkan, etc. Just look at what happened in Norway two years ago. Our terrorists are white supremacist. Hell, I’m going into town tomorrow for a protest against a “Norwegian defense league” meeting. It’s there all right, and Den is in no manner worse than a lot of others out there..

    No I’m quite happy with that statement.
