Far out, man. That's nice looking. They say circles are the hardest form to draw. I presume that goes for drawings done with needles, too. Lots of circles in that thing.

Lots of circles in that thing.For anyone who doesn't know, most of the time tattoo artists create a "template" of the artwork they're going to tattoo on their client, and this template is transferred to the client's skin before any actual tattooing takes place. Normally these templates consist of not much more than outlines and other specific line work for the art work in question; similar in many cases to what you'd find in a coloring book. Once the artist has tattooed those lines onto the client, they use various other needles and inks to give the tattoo it's colors and details.That being said, any competent tattoo artist should be able to create a template for the Dudeism Yin-Yang symbol fairly easily, and as long as they're able to accurately "trace" over the lines of that template after it's been applied to the client's skin the circular shapes shouldn't pose much of a problem. Of course, placement and having to deal with the contours of the client's body also play a part, and I'm sure I'm making it sound easier than it actually is, but compared to a lot of tattoos I've seen the Dudeism Yin-Yang is a relatively simple design.Nice tat there Father J!
