My New Dragon Tattoo

Ok so I just got back about an hour ago from a tattoo artist I know and trust. I had been wanting to get a dragon tattoo for some time now on my calf but wasn't really happy with the typical tattoo flash art I had seen. And being a girl I take getting any new tattoo very seriously. I did some research.
First I had to decide what type of dragon. I never realized there was so many variations of a dragon. Throughout recorded history we have written and drawn pictures about dragons. Many of our modern day religions have dragons in their beliefs. Whether these mythical creatures actually existed, were legends passed down from sightings of the last dinosaurs, or were just stories to excite and scare who knows. Anyway I looked two of the standard dragons for my tattoo.
The Chinese Dragon. Exhibiting the mystique and beauty of the orient these graceful serpentine dragons come in an abundance of colors and shapes. Some have wings, some fly without them. Many were considered to be holy beings which appeared to help mankind in their times of needs. I found that some didn't even look like what I had always envisioned a dragon to be. Many were covered with fur and feathers instead of scales. But all were beautiful and had individual meaning to the people of China.
The Medieval Dragon. Ok here was my idea of a dragon. Being an avid online fantasy gamer these were the dragons I had encountered. Huge, scaled, winged, fire-breathing creatures that struck dread into the heart of the masses. These were the foes of shining knights and powerful wizards for centuries past.
But what about a combination of the two? Nowhere I looked could I find a tattoo of one of each of these legendary beasts, the Chinese and the Medieval Dragon, together or locked in battle. Last year I had subscribed to an online database of thousands of tattoos for me to research and download. After some great suggestions on the forums there and a merging of a couple tattoos I had a unique and one of a kind dragon tat just for me!

I am sure you have heard about Hello Kitty. It is no wonder, since this little kitten has become one of the most famous characters in the past decades. The beginnings can be traced back to 1975, when in Japan, designer Yuko Simizu created the concept of this fabulous character.
Initially it could be seen on purses, then it expanded to different kinds of clothes, accessories, even cars and computers. A year after the characters creation, it was brought to the United States, where it has enjoyed success, and since then it has spread globally. Today, there are so many fans of this cute little kitten that more and more people want to tattoo it on themselves. If you are a fan of this figure too, there are unthinkably much ways to decorate you body with it.
Creative tattoo artists like Hello Kitty too, because they can unleash their fantasy when putting her on somebody. The basic design looks really cute in itself, but it can be modified to fit almost any look, be it Punk, Goth, or evil. It can also be re-designed to represent a certain character - this is how "Hello Vader" or "Hello Jesus" was born. But if you are looking for simpler designs, you can just design an imaginary dress that you would like to see on her. There are only a few basic tattoo concepts that are so variable like Hello Kitty.
Then again, I can only recommend to decorate you body with this little kitty not only when you are a fan of it, but if you just want a cute or extreme tattoo.

Tattoos can be worn by anyone and in any part of the world! It does not matter if your
rich or poor. You don't have to be a celebrity to have the hottest tattoo. A tattoo can
be an expression of yourself to the world and your friends. At the end of this article you
will find a website that offers a huge tattoo directory. This tattoo directory gives you
thousands of choices for the ultimate tattoo! Is a celebrity tattoo design right for you?
Your watching your favorite movie star and you notice they have a tattoo. You start
thinking you would like a celebrity tattoo design. Hey! Why not? You start looking
up the movie star in Google, to see if you can get some close up pictures. You find the
celebrity tattoo, but it looks blurry, so you keep searching. You now find another
picture, but you still cannot see all of the tattoo.
There are websites that have good pictures that show celebrity tattoos. The trend of
celebrities wearing tattoos is growing everyday. Guys don't just go out and get drunk
and wake up with a new tattoo on them the next day. Ok, some guys still go out and
after a long night of drinking wake up with a tattoo. This type of behavior would be
dangerous on the eve of ones wedding. The guy wakes up and he has a devil tattooed
on his chest, with his future wife's name on it. He is guaranteed a one way ticket to the
burning flames of the Abyss. On a good note, a celebrity tattoo design can make a nice
birthday present.
There was a time that people would look at tattoos with disgust. Those days are almost
over! I love art and tattooing is a powerful form of art. If you want a tattoo, then by all
means, get what you want. One of my
friends had a black scorpion on the inside of his arm. It was one of the coolest tattoos
I have ever seen. Tattoos make a powerful statement and it can be inspiring to an
individual. Movies stars, rock stars, sport stars, rap artists, business people, bartenders,
and anyone can enjoy having a tattoo!
Let's look at some of the celebrities who have cool tattoos: Angelina Jolie, Lindsay Lohan,
David Beckman, Kelly Clarkson, Eminem, Johnny Depp, 50 Cent, Christina Aguilera,
Sarah Michelle Gellar, Kelly Osbourne, Nelly, Alyssa Milano, Anna Kournikova, Natalie
Imbruglia, Xzibit, Elijah Woods, Holly Valance, Usher, Tiffany Amber Thiessen, Britney
Spears, Nicole Richie, Robin Quivers, Pink, Adrian Young, and Rob Zombie. This may
not be all of them, because of those pesky hiding places on the human body!
Unless you have been living under a rock, you will notice some of the sexiest girls in the
world have a tattoo. Does James Bond have a tattoo? I don't know! He might have
a 007 tattooed somewhere. The younger generation is strongly influenced by the celebrity
tattoos and thanks to the internet, millions can find a new celebrity tattoo in minutes.
The internet has made it possible for most of humanity to have a celebrity tattoo design of
some kind. While your reading this, someone may have already read this and is now getting
a celebrity tattoo design! Now that is great technology.
By using a huge tattoo directory, you will not have to search the whole internet. You would have
to look through thousands of web pages listed in Google to find what you want! Sounds like a
headache! I found a website that specializes in tattoos, by putting together the ultimate gallery of
tattoos, making your search easy and fun. Getting a tattoo is an exciting moment and you don't
want it to be a drag. Your body is waiting for the ultimate tattoo. Are you ready for some ink?
