SStu Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 forgive me if I've missed it somewhere, but I just did a couple of searches and (unbelievably) couldn't fine a thread like this, so here it is . . . .

RoryQ Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Good idea for a thread. I'm getting a snake for my front piece (kicking off in nov). Maybe a kuniyoshi style warrior fighting a giant snake. Do people like scales or no scales? For me, I prefer the look of clearly delineated scales... Like that cobra. Looks awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumpleton Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Hope it is ok to post a snake with a panther, found this one on Steve Byrnes instagram page. It is awesome! Shannon Shirley, a.robbie, Eilin and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to your progress, and regarding scales or not - I like them both! Variety keeps it interesting. Kev and hogg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogg Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Snakes! Love 'em so much. Maybe too much. I have three, and I'm really trying to stop.

slayer9019 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 i did this a few months ago Now that is a killer snake! As far as scales vs no-scales, I love em both. In my opinion it gives a very different look to the whole tattoo. I got a scale-less snake and its awesome, when I go for a bigger piece I want to get a scaled cobra somewhere (ribs maybe?) gougetheeyes and G.Uristti 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avery Taylor Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Chris Garver does killer snakes. I met Frank Romano at the Seattle Convention about three years ago, and he has an awesome cobra that Chris did on his stomach. And the one he did on Tim Hendricks is bad as shit as well. gougetheeyes and slayer9019 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogg Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 William Yoneyama knows how to lay down a snake or two. That big torso cobra is about the best damn snake I've ever seen. Why do I feel like the client brought Noble's Grime cobra to William and said, "Top this"? - - - Updated - - - I like this thread a lot and will see if I can get a picture of my Scott Sylvia one....
