Tattoos?

Tracee

Grrrl
So, does anyone have any snake tattoos? And if so are there stories behind them? I know that's a rather juvenile thing to ask but I am genuinely interested :)

I wouldn't get one myself as I think to do it justice it'd have to be pretty large, and I'm far too big a wimp to spend more than ten minutes "in the chair".

Look forward to any responses/pictures.

:)
 
I don't have tatoos but...

In the recent issue of Reptiles, there was reptile tatoo contest. There was some really awesome and crazy stuff!
 
Here's mine . . .

Here's my only reptile tatoo, it's on my lower calf. I have two others. One's a wolf in a moon and the other is a panther head.

Anyone recognize the inspiration for this tat?

Don't have any snake tats yet working on having one drawn up.
but I do have these two: My best friend on top my 14 year old boston terrier (on my chest) and the tiger is on my right shoulder.

How special! Great tiger too, rarrr. It's not fair, I'd love to have a tattoo of a (my) snake but I just couldn't brave one that big :( and a little one would look daft methinks.

I'll try and con my friend into letting me take a picture of his boa tattoo, it coils round his arm/shoulder and onto his chest and back as well. It's so detailed, very special indeed.

It looks alot like the pose of a ghost in The Corn Snake Manual...

Exactly the same thing I was going to say, except the pose is the mirror image of what's in the manual.


When I was a kid I used to think that I wanted to get tattoos when I was older, but I've since changed my thoughts on this. My thought: We came into the world without tattoos, makeup, piercings, etc. so that's the way we should live our lives...naturally. Of course this is just my point of view. I don't judge others who have tattoos, piercings, etc., I just will never have them.
 
Same here. I have a single piercing in my ears, but I'll never have a tatoo. Seen too many ancient people in the hospital I work in with tatoos around their ankles that used to be on their shoulder :) Not pretty!!
 
The trick is not to get one somewhere that will sag ;)

I'll admit I got mine when I was young(er) and stupid(er) but I was wise enough to think about it for a while first and design them myself. I've only even had good reactions (I know some people think tattoos are just nasty) but I suppose only time will tell whether I regret them in the end.

Scuse tangent :)
 
I laughed at the fact that some of you know the "picture of the ghost corn" in the manual. I don't know the book that well, so I looked it up and voila, there's the tattoo.

Anyways, no tattoos for me. On that matter, no piercings at all (none in my ears, never have been, never will be), and I never wear make-up except for fancier occasions. I don't feel like I should put myself through any pain for something permanent/semi-permanent.
 
Amanda E was the most accurate in her answer, except for page number she did include the 'mirror image' part. I was planning on a corn tattoo for some time, and after looking at many, many corn images, that pic just jumped right off the page . . . I guess onto my leg!
