CONTENTLine drawings and sketches
Alix Ge's volume in the Gentlemans Classics series is a 152-page hardback of line drawings and sketches, packed from cover to cover. It is the third book in the range, which sets out to give tattooers usable reference in the classic styles.
The subject list is broad: dragons, cats, hannya, geisha, fish, and flowers, plus octopuses, ape heads, girl heads, and spiders built from lady, dragon, and demon heads. Many ideas are drawn several times over, showing how one concept can be pushed in different directions.
For Japanese and neo-traditional tattooers, this tattoo sketchbook is as much a lesson in iteration as a source of designs. It pairs naturally with Alix Ge's Cats and with the other Gentlemans Classics titles, and the compact hardback size makes it an easy book to keep at the station.
