I need Ball Python tattoo ideas!

JoshMolone Jan 11, 2012 03:23 PM

I want something pretty small, (About the size of the back of my calf), and related to reptiles or more specifically Ball Pythons.

Ive had Ball Pythons since I was 5 or so, can't remember a time when I didn't have them, so I fiqure what would be more sentimental than a Ball Python!

I really dont want something ill regret in a few years, I want it small, but nice.

My original idea was a vermiculite surrouned egg with a pipping normal and a spider or normal partially around the egg.

Idk though, ideas?

With the color of tattoos and the fading involved you should pick something with a lot of Purple or Blue....no blue bp's so maybe a Purple Passion or a Mystic Potion...just an idea

Including all of the different morphs...the coolest picture I have ever seen was the one where the female was wrapped around an entire clutch of pipped eggs!

I have a few tattoos myself. I recommend going a little bit bigger. At least the size of your fist or bigger. If you want good detail ant it to look good in years to come. I'm working on one myself right now!! Good luck

I've been considering one for years...a ball python tat. Perhaps if I could see pics of others' ball tats, I will make it happen this year!

I know ive posted these in the past but here is some of my work thative had done. It is not done yet, a good friend of mine is an awesome tattoo artist and its been a work in the making. It was suppose to be a small tattoo that got a little out of control but i love it. The ball python is a "zombie" snake half skin half bone, it still has a lot more color to come and the bones will eventually be colored in as well. The other side of my back is hard to make out in the picture because it is just a blood line but it is a croc monitor that is also half skin half bone. It has been colored in more now since these pics were taken, ill try to get new pictures of both of them cause the ballpython has more detail to it now too. Its hard to take a good pic with a mirror lol.. Ill see if i can have my boyfriend take one later tonight.

Here are a few pics when it was first outlined with no skin yet, and also a pic of my arm tattoo which will eventually be a half sleeve given i get around to it The frog is also just the outline he is actually in full color now. Ill try to get more pics of them up tonight.
