David and Victoria Beckham's son Romeo is growing up to be just like his dad.

The 8-year-old's been snapped in LA having a kick about with his father sporting some colourful artwork up his left arm.

Romeo's red white and blue 'tattoo' transfers were in support of his local baseball team Los Angeles Angels.

Becks - who has 30-odd etchings, including an image of Jesus on his side, a guardian angel on his back and wife Victoria's name in Hindi on his arm - knows he's settling an example his kids will want to follow.

The LA Galaxy star doesn't mind his boys heading to the tattoo parlour when they're old enough, but feels differently about his daughter - due in a few weeks.�

'I'm not sure I would let her get tattoos but the boys I couldn't really argue with,' David, 36, told US chat show host Craig Ferguson recently.

'I love them personally, but I'm not sure they're going to look great when I'm 75.'
