> [@Zsofia](#): > > Is the tarantula a real tattoo? It looks too amazingly good to me. Seconded. It doesn’t look like a tattoo. It looks like he’s got his pet tarantula on his shoulder. If it _is_ a tattoo, the artist deserves to be making lots of money. ---

“Make me a taco” made me giggle. There’s something randomly delightful about a dinosaur in a sombrero. ---

Dinosaur Jesus was hilarious, but my favorite was the Very Hungry Caterpillar. Somebody in the comments section says it is fake though, disappointing as the coloring on that is dead on. Tarantula is a true piece of art, the gruesome geisha is bizarre and disturbing but also well executed. ---

I’m sensing a taco theme. Some of these are so random, _why_ would anyone want Wilford Brimley or a taco permanently inked into their skin?? ---

> [@dangermom](#): > > Some of these are so random, _why_ would anyone want Wilford Brimley or a taco permanently inked into their skin?? Obviously because they didn’t think their skin could contain the awesome of Chuck Norris! Wilford Brimley is a containable amount of awesome. ---

It took me a minute to figure out **What Would Evel Kneivel Do?** Note to everybody: If you’re going to cover your whole back in free verse, use a font that isn’t hard to read. Sheesh! The Wilford Brimley tat made me wonder if it looked like somebody else before the guy’s belly got that big. ---

You can see the light reflecting off his chest that shows it’s a flat image. It’s extremely well done though. ---
