Snake tattoos!!!!

Okay, thought this would be fun to see... how many out there have tattoos? And how many have reptile tattoos as well? I ask because I am currently thinking of ideas for a half sleeve snake tattoo. While ago I got a cross and I don't like it, or I'm not religious at all, I got it to put my kids' snake around, bit getting something different for they.

So let's see everyone's ink. Also if any one has an idea for my tattoo let me know as well... if needed I can post a crappy pic of the tattoo o have now I want covered up! Thanks!

I don't have any yet, since I'm only 16, but I plan on becoming a tattoo artist professionally so I definitely want them. And a lot of them. And if possible, I'd like to have all of them either be my own original drawings or from photos that I took.

I haven't decided when it'll happen, but I'm absolutely 100% dead set on having Kat Von D do my tattoo of Ramses.

As for your tattoo, if you tell the artist in the shop that you want to cover up the cross with a snake, they can usually come up with something pretty good on-spot. However, if you want a solid idea before you go in, I can do a quick sketchup for you for free or a real, finished version for a small price. And so you know I'm not drawing squiggly lines and calling them snakes:

I should probably stop before I get in trouble for posting an ad or something (Sorry, mods! Wasn't my intention!). So I guess if you're interested, send me a PM, and if not, well then good luck, and I can't wait to see what it looks like finished!

woould like to see what the forum has to offer maybe we could stretch it out to tattoos in general? just a thought like the thread :taz:

When j went and talked to my guy, he said since the cross is solid black it will be hard to go over it with a snake. He did say he could turn my cross into a nice tribal, then add a snake in as he goes with the tribal, witch I do like that idea.... if you want to just sketch something for me that would be awesome, only of you don't mind and have time...

As for changing it to general tattoos that is a good idea, let's see the ink!!!!

Check out what's new on my website... www.Homegrownscales.com

This is a cover of a bad tattoo... I wasn't able to get it completely finished - my tattoo guy moved out of town. The old tattoo outline was under where the leaves are now. Yes, I realized he didn't get the pattern quite right for the blood python and the head wasn't supposed to be red. That's what I get for assuming he should know exactly how the pattern looks when I give him a pick of my dark brown-red blood and tell him to make it more red. That's okay, I still like it. :)

It may not have been exactly what you wanted, but that is still a beautiful tattoo! Hot! :gj:

I've been wanting to get a snake skeleton wrapped around my calf, but I haven't found an artist I like/trust just yet. Soon I am also going to be getting a tattoo similar to my avatar on one of my calves as well. Basically the Alaska flag with a skull and crossbones jolly roger instead of the north star. For now I do not have any snake tattoos, just a cover up with some orchids and art nouveau kinda stuff on my right bicep. I'll try to post pics later.

If and when the snakes pay their way, their overflow is going into my sleeve.

A mish mash of roller derby, zombies, snakes, and a not so classic "mom" sailor ribbon/heart.

Have one snake/sparrow tatt reserved for around my neck/chest, a classic sailor style but with a very contemporary twist.
