  • it's a nice kirituhi!!! im maori (nga ruahine), i think this is nice work

  • to many haters on here he obviously hasnt done this for a quick buk cas if u LISTEN to him he explains meaning unlike alot of backyard trademe artists. it turned out algud iv seen way worse lol. atleast this guys got respect for what hes doing

  • Kei te He ou mahi.. waihotia!!! He taonga tera te Mahi Ta moko, na ou matou Matua Tipuna ke..

  • hhhmmmmm first of all, you talk to much and you're a damn disgrace of a Tattooist... that work is appalling and to think you completely ruined some-ones skin in the ways of making a quick Buck and using Ta moko to get it... You sicken me!! honestly you do not know what you're doing,so leave things alone!!!

  • (TAMOKO) if you have maori BLOOD

    (KIRITUHI) if you are of non maori decent

  • no disrepect bro, but your design kinda lacks flow

    looks like you used the wrong needle to do your out line. I reckon i would have Used a 9 round shader for the outline, and use a plain 9 liner for the infill.

    your lines look a bit "off the mark" too cuz. maybe you were nervous!

    but at the nd of the day, the customer was happy.

  • interesting mmmmmmmm

  • im maori myself and i must say its pretty nice but umm yeh bro its kirituhi not ta moko's cuz so yeh just letting you know. pretty mean though mate.
