Try shading as I think that this makes a tattoo look a little 3D ish. That is if its done right.

I agree with tattman. I don't recommend flashy colors for tribal tattoos, shading (or black) is better IMHO Wink

thanx for the replies that sounds better seen a guy with a red background on the internet definitely not for me.

Yea i agree if you already have a black tribal either leaving it filled in solid or shaded is probably the best. I prefer my tribals to be colored with a colored outline. My favorite so far is my tribal that has the background solid and the design flesh tone. Take a look if you want and see if it's for you.
