Tattoo fan ... David now has at least 19
Legendary US inker Mark Mahoney carried out the work, which took TWELVE hours to complete in two sittings.
Fans have been waiting since December to see the final design, when he posted a shot of it getting underway.
LA Galaxy star Becks said he came up with the idea himself - and explained how tattoos let him show his feelings.
In a video posted on the social networking site, he added: "I don't plan on having a tattoo.
"It's just sometimes I wake up and I think, you know, I've got an idea of an image I would like on me.
"Some people love tattoos, some people don't. It's just something that I have always found can kind of express how I'm feeling, or the thoughts that I have or memories.
"Most of my tattoos are memories and things that mean things to me.
"There's not one tattoo that I've got on me that doesn't mean something."
Becks now has at least 19 tattoos across his body, including extensive works on his arms, chest and back.
