An unusual take on the dragon body art trend is the scale tattoo. Your tattooer will use techniques similar to special-effects make-up artists to create the illusion that you have a layer of scales beneath your real skin. Artistic tears and cracks can also be added for extra impact. When you choose this tattoo style, you are hinting at the beast within. A scale inking tells others that you identify strongly with the characteristics of a dragon – fierce and powerful.
