In the last of his teenage years, Prince Jackson is all grown up and getting inked. 

The oldest child of the late Michael Jackson joined his sister Paris Jackson at a tattoo parlor on Sunday to get some new body art. 

After four hours, he walked away with a brand new tattoo of Anubis, the Egyptian god of funerals and death, on his upper right shoulder blade. The style of the ink is eerie as Anubis is pictured toting a shank dripping in blood. 

The latest photograph of Prince is a stark contrast from the famous images of him and his siblings as children veiled by masks and scarves

Though the day marked no special occasion for Prince, it was Paris' 18th birthday and she used her new body art—a single phrase lining her forearm—to pay tribute to her iconic father.

"'Queen of My Heart' in his handwriting. To everyone else he was the King of Pop. To me, well, he was the king of my heart," she captioned a black-and-white photo. "Thank you @dermagraphink, you're a legend."

The Jackson family commemoration didn't stop there. She later had her paternal grandmother Katherine Jackson's named inked in Chinese on her wrist, decorated by a blooming blue lotus flower. 

"Kǎisèlín" for Grandma Katherine, done by the ink goddess herself @thetattooprincess," she captioned an Instagram shot showing off the new artwork. "Love you, G-Ma."
