Samoan Maori shoulder tattoo design
Hi,
Here's the 3rd design of my latest sketches in a Samoan inspired tattoo set. This design has some influences from the Maori style, but is mainly filled with Samoan patterns.
I started with a pencil and roughly sketched the outer lines, then traced some tribal patterns:
For these symmetrical Samoan designs it's always a bit of a surprise how the final design will look. I only draw half the design and then mirror it in Photoshop. This seems easy, but it quity tricky to design the patterns in such a way that it doesn't have an obvious vertical line in the center.
Here's a picture of half the design finished:
You can order the finished high resolution design right now, by simply clicking the "Buy now" button. Once I receive your payment, you'll receive an e-mail with a high resolution image + a linedrawing/stencil for your tattoo artist.
Any questions? Just let me know.
Kind regards, Mark Storm

Samoan tattoo for the shoulder
Hi,
I have been quite busy for the last few weeks, but I wanted to show you some sketches and tattoo pieces that I did. It's another Samaon/Maori inspired shoulder sleeve I did for my galleries.
As you can read in my previous post, I'm working on a new series of Samoan inspired tattoos for the shoulder, with some influences from the Maori style.
You can find all 3 Samoan sleeves here.
Here's the second sketch I did:

Here's the second sketch I did:
This design is roughly based/insphred by the Sonny Bill Williams tattoo.
It has really detailed tribal elements and covers the upperarm from shoulder to elbow. It wraps around to the biceps and back side of the arm.

I get a lot of request from people that are looking for a Samoan-inspired design, similar to the Sonny Bill Williams tattoo sleeve.
So I decided to design a set of intricate shoulder tatoo pieces with a lot of small details in a graphic style.
You can find all 3 designs in this set here.The original design of SBW looks like this:
First I made a basic pencil sketch with a height of 30 cm (12 inches) and added some detailed Samoan inspired patterns. Then a few swirls of Maori koru and traced the lines with a marker:
The final design has a nice upper part, I added some other shapes on top to make it look more complex. You can order the high resolution image of this design, by simply clicking the "buy now" below. You get the high quality files sent by e-mail once I receive your payment.

New maori tattoo gallery optimized for Ipad and Iphone
Hi,
I recently bought an Apple Ipad2 and use it mainly for shooting pictures and recording movies of the design process. I can easily add these photos to my twitter messages (@storm3d) and upload the movies to Youtube.com in a few clicks. It's also very usefull for quickly browsing the web...
There's only one big downside to Apple products, and that's the fact that Apple doesn't support the Adobe Flash plugin. For my website galleries, I use(d) the "simpleviewer" plugin, that creates a really nice and simple Flash gallery with a thumbnail and a larger image next or above it.
Now I use my Ipad, I see that a lot of mobile visitors cannot see the designs in my gallery, so I had to make changes to it.
My website design is based on the principles of the "Save the Pixel" e-book by Ben Hunt, which states that the design should be as simple as possible and every pixel should contribute to the main goal of the website.
Keeping this in mind, I redesigned the tattoo galleries. Here's a picture of the 'before' gallery:
The red marked area is the flash movie containing the maori tattoo gallery.
People could scroll through the images and see the number and price of the design.
Before ordering it, customers had to select the correct tattoo nr. from the dropdown list and hit the "Buy Now" button.
People often selected the wrong tattoo and bought the piece they didn't want.
To get rid of this problem I decided to implement the Lightbox plugin/script to my gallery instead of the simpleviewer movie.
One other advantage was that I could add the size and price of the design in the header/description and even add a Paypal button, so it became impossible to order the wrong tatoo design.
The new gallery is now looking like this, with the lightbox frame popping up:
So if you have an Ipad, Ipod or Iphone, please check it out and let me know if there's anything I can change to improve it.
Kind regards, Mark Storm

Tattoo pictures of a "Cesc Fabregas" inspired elbow tattoo
Hi,
Yesterday one of my customers (thanks Ruairi! :)) showed me some pictures of his new tattoo that I sketched a few months ago. The tatoo design is inspired by the elbow tattoo of the Arsenal soccer player Cesc Fabregas, and is in a graphical polynesian style.
The original high quality flash design that I made looks like this:
It has a shark tooth, some kind of an eye and other repetitive patterns.
The band wraps around the elbow and connects perfectly on the outside of the arm.
My customer sent me the following photos of elbow:

Extension shoulder tattoo in Polynesian mixed style
Hi,
Last year I created a half sleeve tattoo in polynesian style for a Dutch customer. It's a bit of a mixed tribal style, it has some stylized flowers and other repetitive shapes:
Unfortunately the tattoo artist applied the stencil too small, so it now needs some extensions.
I marked the upper shoulder part that had to be inked.
I created a basic sketch and once it was approved I finalized it. To give you an idea how that process works I shot a short movie and placed it on youtube:
