I think chest would look cool if you're using that picture.

that is the picture im using for the tattoo

why not let the tattoo design of your spider run through your shoulders to your chest? I think its pretty neat. Hope you get the idea :snake:

id love to do that but idk how id get a nice long picture of the snake too look good on the back

I like the below the pec on the ribs a bit idea. either that or the forehead......

This is where the professional Tattoo Artist will help you. Belive me, if he is good he will help you decide the best placement for it... Talk to him or her...They want thier work to show good so they will guide you in the right direction.

He is a very good artist. Hes done 6 of my tattoos so far.

I decided to go with the pythons head resting on chest and then wrapping up over the shoulder onto the back. Im using picture below for it.

i think that what you decided on will look so awesome! if i had the guts to get a big tattoo that's what i would have done...

keep us posted with pics!!

Thanks tattoo isnt being done till Monday. As my guy is booked till then. So i should have pictures Monday night sometime.

That is some sweet tribal on your leg, im gonna be getting something similar to that within the next month or so.

The leg one took 90 mins roughly. Didnt hurt at all. More like a tolerable pain that you can sleep to LOL. The snake one will be tattoo 14 so im used to it but yet i keep them out of sight when i have shirt on.

Yea I heard it was similar to a hot needle being dragged across the skin? This will be my first tat so im not going to rush it as I want it to be perfect in every way.

If its your first tattoo I would recommend it in a area that is more tolerant of pain like the outer arm on shoulder. Tattoos really do not hurt like ppl say it does. first few mins sting then after that its a talkf est with the artist.

yea I was gonna get it on the bicep area its gonna be about 8 inches long, just long enough to be hidden by a shirt sleeve for interviews and such thats about all im 100 percent committed on is the size.

What ever design you decide on, please take a picture and post it up here when it's done :)

I would try to position the snake where I wanted the tat and take a few pics to see how it looks. I would also bring the snake with me while I was getting that tat so the artist could get the coloring right.

Once tat is finished and i get home ill take a picture the best that i can.

lets see if i can explain thiat so you can picture it.

I came up with one more idea. In stead of resting on chest and going over shoulder to back. I will have the head resting on lower left side of stomach with body angled up wrapping around ribs then onto back.
