Cool, but a more defined grille I reckon, that really distinguishes it as a mini.

mate just had the front of his chest done (full piece) is the skin ripped back with the engine bay of his L34 torana, with 350 chev blown. Detail is unbelievable. took 6 sessions. Will try to get a pic for you.

Chest ripped open with an A series with crossflow head.......yeah now you are talking.

sounds like a good tattoo, sometimes i wish i was an etch a sketch. i have over 50 tattoos and wish i could clear em all off and put more on. maybe i should just put on heaps of weight and stretch my skin haha

Two of my pt clients are tatoo artists, if you pick a good artist they will come up with something amazing. Nothing shits them more than people coming in with drawings that don't scale to the body part or something that they know just won't look right (but the client insists).

I would pay top dollar for an artist and see what they come up with. Especially given you have to be happy with the design for a very long time.

Is prefer to design something myself, I know they do great work but all my tattoos mean something to me because I have either designed them or done them myself.
Cheers Pete.

Fair enough, I guess at the end of the day its for you! Not anyone else. But even with your design I'd still say pay for the best artist you can find. I didn't get my dodgy one fixed for 20 years, but one day I saw a photo of it and realised it had to be fixed. Just wish I had gotten a better artist in the first place.

I love it, but I think the line under the bonnet needs to curve in the opposite direction.
