The elemental ball python challenge!

So I have this really great tattoo idea that brings together my spiritual path and my spirit animal (snake). My original idea was to represent each element with a snake. My original idea had different species for each element, but I have made the decision to make all of the snakes different ball python morphs. This allows me to put my personal bp (Kiva) into my ink.

So here is the challenge. I need to find a morph for each of the following elements:
Earth
Air
Fire
Water
Light
Dark

I know that "light" and "dark" are not technically elements, but it is about balance of all aspects.

Any suggestions?

So far I had the following ideas (mostly from worldofballpythons big morph list):
Fire: fire, flame, red devil
Dark: axanthic vpi, desert ghost

Not much but i will be on this kick for a while. Also, if you have pics to contribute... :D

Mystic potion for water

Lesser for Air :gj:

Earth - lesser or lesser combo
Air - not sure.
Water - crystal, crystal combo, or maybe a blue ghost?
Fire - inferno, firefly
Dark - Super Black Pastel
Light - BEL
Or mix dark and light with a high black panda Pied

Earth-Sable or Super Sable
Air- Axanthic Killerbee
Fire-Inferno
Water- Blue Ghost or True Ghost (Hypo Axanthic)
Light-Blue Eyed Leucistic
Dark-Super Black Pastel

If this comes out well it has the potential to be the most EPIC tattoo in the history of all ink...

That's what I'm hoping for. A friend of my fiancé is a tattoo artist and did the one I have and most, if not all, of my fiancé's ink.

Thanks for all the input guys, and keep them coming!

I think BEL is the only way to go for light and is what I will use for light, and a lesser sounds really good for air. I will keep toiling away with my sketches. Thanks again!

Ok slight edit. Was looking at pics of lessers. They look more earthy to me, so air is back up in the......air.

Oh actually a Silver Bullet may be good for Air.
Or The super pewters.

Pied could be air. Or some pied combo. Looks like clouds? :D


Caramel albino pied specifically looks like a sunset with white clouds:

lightning pied has a bit of a storm cloud look to it:

Ok, so update on my choices thus far.
Earth: Lesser or Mojave (still deciding there)
Air: haven't decided yet here with anything yet, but a pied might be best choice
Fire: looking for something really orange or red here so still looking
Water: mystic potion just screams water to me
Light: albino
Dark: Axanthic

My reason for these light/dark choices is that while a BEL and super black pastel fit the bill to a T, I think they would be really hard to show off properly in a tattoo. I think something with a little contrast will work better and I think these 2 balance out really well. What do you guys think so far?

Fire: Dreamsicle

Earth- I'd personally do a normal. What's more Earthy than a wildtype? :)
Air- I'd do a BEL
Fire- Fire with a killer headstamp ;) or inferno
Water- This one is tough, and honestly I have no suggestions lol
Light- Coral Glow
Dark- Cinny! or Chocolate

Ok, so I did some WOBP research myself.

Earth: Chocolate Spider
Air: Purple Passion, Silver Bullet Lesser, Super Phantom Yellowbelly
Fire: Red Devil, Enchi Mojave Yellowbelly
Water: Orange Ghost Red Axanthic,Titan Ball
Light: Albino Ivory, Contender Ball
Dark: Super Chocolate, Super Sable

Gale

Nice suggestions! I will look these up.

I think air should be something wispy and silvery.
Like a sterling or something similar to what Gale suggested.

(google image - looks like floating clouds and such)

WOW! What is that? That would make the perfect air element!
And I think fire is going to go to the red devil morph. Im starting to work on my sketch and will keep you guys updated

I didn't read all of the posts on this one so I don't know if anyone suggested a Super Black Pastel for dark:

SUPER BLACK PASTEL
