I saw The Reptile Report post that on facebook and it grosses me out D:

I don't like tattoos and that one is so realistic it's gross.

Props to the artist though, I could never do something like that, especially not on someone's skin :)
 
I saw that in Facebook! It's epic!!
If I ever have the guts to get my tattoo, I want that artist.
 
Love tattoos, and love the quality of the work, but the whole going in and out of the arm thing makes me cringe, lol.
 
I can't really stand tattoos, but I still appreciate the artwork of some of them. This one definitely deserves appreciation! It is hard enough to get that kind of 3D effect on paper.

That is my thought too! The artist that did that is amazing but I can't stand to look at that tat for very long!
 
That is amazing in how realistic it looks - especially with the skin. It really does look 3D with the skin being pulled by the snake. Wouldn't have it on myself (I'm just a small tat gal) but can definitely admire the talent and time gone into this :D
 
I have quite a few tattoos. I really like them, and have been to numerous tattoo conventions. That is one of the nicest tattoos I have ever seen. The work is amazing. Like Walter said the shading to get the effects in that tattoo are some of the best I have seen. Id like to see a close up of the face because it appears there is some real detail there as well.
 
Some insane depth going on in that piece. What a brilliant artist. I have a hard time getting that amount of realism with charcoal and paper, much less on skin!
 
That is an awesome tattoo design especially the way the artist used the space (I wouldn't have thought of putting something of that design on an arm). I saw one recently of a burmese python on someone's chest that was done very well and another of a boa on a a woman's leg that was done very well. Other than that I find it hard to find GOOD snake tats. They can be done very, very poorly but drawing on a living canvas with having to take.the customers input is very difficult I bet and everyone's skin reacts differently. I wish I could find the link a for those other good ones too. Thanks for sharing this art :)
