Ink 'N Guys by Bánfalvi, Ákos. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780764352010.

Male tattoo models show off their dazzling body art and open up about their backgrounds, interests, and opinions in this impressive collection of studio, open-air, black and white, color, and art photography. Tattoo artists and shop owners, musicians, athletes, actors, and other models from around the world expose their sculpted physiques as well as their thoughts on their own ink, "the business" in general, and society at large. These hunks and hipsters discuss their careers and hobbies, first tattoos, and feelings about being models in a world where women tend to absorb most of the attention and admiration. These thoughtful interviews are accompanied by eye-catching images taken by some of the best photographers in the industry. Women may dominate the tattoo modeling circuit, but more and more male models are flashing their intricate designs, sleeves, and full-body suits for the camera.
