I know people with the running out of room syndrome. However I doubt that happens to the men like the ones depicted in the photograph. They don't keep adding whatever strikes their fancy until they run out of real estate. Their tattoo, their body suit, is planned out in it's entirety before they even begin. The whole picture is carefully interwoven to tell a story, and like all Japanese art, meticulous in detail.
I'm sure shit happens to them like it does to everyone else. Family, money, illness or injuries, affect the progress. Hmm, I wonder about large weight gains or losses? But the goal is set and always clear what it should look like in the end.
