He's got the Ink Factor! James Arthur shows off his latest tattoo... and exchanges words of war with The Voice judges over Twitter

At the beginning of the year he paid a visit to celebrity tattoo artist Kevin Paul and left with an intricate design on his wrist.
And returning to the trusted master of inking, James Arthur has now revealed the yet to be completed design which pays homage to his namesake King Arthur.
Showing no signs of fear, the 25-year-old X Factor champion, looked calm and relaxed as the Derby and London based artist got to work.

The Ink Factor! James Arthur showed off his latest tattoo which pays homage to King Arthur

In the beginning: James first showed off his tattoo in January

Sitting in Kevin's studio James simply looked on as the now famous artist added further detail and shading to the portrait of the medieval British leader.

Speaking to The Sun about James' design, Kevin said: 'We are in the middle of his tattoo, but he had to shoot off to Miami.
'It has taken around 20 to 30 hours to do so far but I reckon it’s set to take another 20 hours.'
Paul, who has worked on One Direction's Harry Styles, Aston Merrygold of JLS, and Ed Sheeran, explained that he is currently helping James to fix tattoos he got done by an amateur artist.
Kevin also went to great detail as he described his plans for James' full sleeves.
He continued: 'He has King Arthur underneath his wrist too so you can see it when he raises his hands and then on the other top-side he has a queen.'
