Thanks!

And these are some Polynesian symbols and designs within the tattoo…
The design should be equally airy whether it is done with or without a machine, since, in a tribal, Polynesian tattoo like this one, with solid lines, many small details can be done in both techniques, if the design has space between the lines and elements. Doubts, in hand-poke, can be given in the skill of the tattoo artist if the tattoo is more realistic, with grays…although, in any case, the old Japanese tattoos (tebori) done with the ancestral hand-poked technique, are as complex and detailed as those done today with a machine.
