ArtBug Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Well I got this great tattoo of three Therea olegrandjeani on my arm - but the whole photo file is too big so here's just one of the little guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrCrackerpants Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Are they crawling up your arm? : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtBug Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 Yes! They are crawling on my upper arm and they look fantastic. They are about the size of a half-dollar so they are a bit larger than "actual size." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pierre72 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Cute Art! I have a roach tattood on my right arm. Got the picture from a book and I guess it's an American roach, one of the prettiest idigenous species. Above and below are the words I LOVE ROACHES with a heart for the "O". I will post it if I can learn how to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtBug Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 VERY cool! I would love to see your fabulous tattoo I was surprized at how much I had to shrink my photo down to get it to fit within the size parameters. I'm amazed at some of the beautiful photos folks have posted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pierre72 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Yes. I've looked at the page "Pics of Beautiful Roaches" and the title certainly fits. Some of those color varieties are out of this world!! There's also a page on Florida species. What region is your Therea species from? What's it's actual size compared to your tattoo picture? Any lettering with it? Thanks for your interest in mine also.

ArtBug Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 Hiya! I'm very green when it comes to cockroach knowledge so I couldn't tell you what region they're from. I got them from Kyle last fall. All of my T. Olegrandjeani are still nymphs and I'd say the largest is around the size of a half inch. The roaches on my tattoo are "oversized." No lettering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pierre72 Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 You're not alone. Of the estimated 3,500 species, I'm only well-versed in about 10 and have heard the names of maybe 20 others. This is a great site to learn more, though. Right now I only have German and have had hissers and Discoid. At any rate, it's great to know of you and these others who share this awareness and affinity for our little friends. Most people I talk to don't give roaches a second thought.

nirotorin Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Awesome tattoo! One of the coolest I've ever seen. Nice choice of species too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
