Spider Tattoos

Spider tattoos are becoming amazingly realistic, and I am surprised at how many people have them inked on, especially the number of women.

I've noticed that a lot of smart women have them tattooed on their neck so they can hide them with their hair if they choose. Others, who I don't think are as wise, just put them out there for the world to see; sometimes in places that don't make them too attractive, at least from my point of view.

What is really extraordinary about spider tattoos are the 3D spider designs. They not only look good from a design and art perspective, but they look so real I would imagine people wearing them have a number of concerned bystanders come up yelling to help them get rid of the potentially dangerous critters.

I could even believe in some cases they attempt to knock it off the one inked, specifically those on the shoulders and necks where they are predominantly placed. You'll see for yourselves as you look at these tattoos that they're so well done and realistic that it could be easy to mistake them for a real spider, which is probably part of the reason for getting that particular one in the first place.

But others don't get spider tattoos for that reason, and many of them are very large, and not too attractive. Look at the full back one included below, I wouldn't think too many people would desire to walk around with that overt look.

Although I didn't include them in this article, spiders and spider web tattoos can obviously work good together, but they must be done right, or they both take away from one another and look blotchy and unrecognizable as far as detail goes.

It's interesting to see the number of people getting spiders inked on them, but the reason why eludes me, although I could say the same about a lot of other tattoo themes as well.

I think it's more for shock value than anything else. There are those of course that place temporary spider tattoos on their skin for seasonal reasons such as Halloween.

More than likely it's a similar reason as to why people like mice or rats as pet, while most people would abhor them.  

One thing is for sure, the quality of spider 3D tattoos is over the top, and in many cases you'd swear they were the real thing. That's quite an accomplishment whether you like spiders or not.

Overall, spider tattoos do have a unique look that is sure to garner attention and generate comments and conversation. And when you think of it, that's probably the two top reasons for getting some ink in the first place.
