Blackout tattoos involve tattooing large areas of the body in ~solid~ black ink.
"It takes a lot of patience and technical skills to pack solid black," Chester Lee, a 29-year-old tattoo artist at Oracle Tattoo in Singapore, told BuzzFeed. The scalloped chest piece above took Lee roughly 20 hours to complete.

The look is inspired by neo-tribal tattoos, which evolved from ancient sacred tribal markings, according to Lee.
Over time, a lot of these tattoos borrow from the past to create new, trendier styles, Lee explained.

"People usually get blackout tattoos as cover-ups," Lee said.
Look at that transformation.

If you want to cover up some tattoos and not others, you can just add blackout ink around your fave piece.
