In his post, Travis, 48, snapped a pic of a table littered with tattooing supplies.

The table set up for the Hulu star held soap and water, pots of ink, a needle, and a razor.

Most notably, he also captured the stencil for his latest piece of body ink, to be added to his collection of over 100 tattoos.

The small stencil held the word “Rocky” in intricate script, in honor of his baby boy.

Travis welcomed his first child with his wife Kourtney Kardashian, 44, son Rocky Thirteen Barker, on November 1.

Alongside Rocky, Travis shares Alabama, 18, and Landon, 20, with ex-wife Shanna Moakler, 48.

Meanwhile, Kourtney has three children from her relationship with Scott Disick, 40.

Alabama also shared a shot from the tattoo parlor, photographing her dad as he sat while the artist worked on his right arm.

“Tatted together,” she captioned the Instagram Story post.

EYE DON’T SEE IT

This isn’t the only tattoo Travis has of his family, but one piece dedicated to Kourtney didn’t win over fans.

Travis unveiled a huge piece of ink based on Kourtney’s eyes – covering his whole thigh – back in January 2023, but fans joked that the piece doesn’t look like his wife.

Instead, people compared the eyes to the late performer Michael Jackson.

“Just needs the little curl at the top, I think MJ used that image on his Dangerous album cover? Lol but yeah it’s giving me Michael Jackson,” one person said.

“I don’t know why but it looks like Michael Jackson’s eyes in the last pic,” another fan wrote.

A fourth fan disagreed, however, and claimed the eyes looked more like Kris Jenner than Kourtney.

BETWEEN THE LINES

While Travis’ head-to-toe ink could be seen as just an aesthetic, a psychologist claimed that his tattoos show his independence from the Kardashians.

“The difference between Travis getting tattoos and doing something to the body to make a different look is a different category to the Kardashians getting cosmetic surgery,” said .

He added, “Multiple tattoos are not the same as cosmetic enhancements, like lip or breast augmentation. Societal norms drive those.

“Travis does not do body augmentation and has not changed his physical structure.”

The psychology expert then described, “Travis is a unique individual.

“His position in his world, musical profession, and talents have nothing to do with the Kardashians, so there is that desire to exert uniqueness.”

“Travis will not be like a Kardashian, so you see people take this opposite place, and he leans into that more. Travis does not want to be like [Kourtney’s] family, which is healthy,” he concluded.
