Wolverine Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Periplaneta sorry about picture delay couldn't figure this out on my blackberry. Was very deep in swamp searching for the Ivory billed Woodpecker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovelyroachlady Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Sweet! I've been thinking about getting all sorts of insects crawling up and around my leg My G. Portentosa would have to be the first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likebugs Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I have no tattoos yet, but I have been considering getting one done from a photo of one of my roaches. I just haven't figured out which angle to choose. I am thinking dorsal/lateral so his face and some of the front ventral parts can be seen. Maybe it's not possible for it to look natural, but I want to start with only 1 tattoo, and I don't want it to look like a dead roach on his back.

(Hijacking) How about something like this? http://bugguide.net/node/view/381555/bgimage Hope you find your woodpecker, Wolverine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does look nice. I will probably have to get the background that he is on, tattooed on me as well, for the view that I want. I'll probably chicken out anyway. The reason that I don't have any tattoos yet at my age is that I am afraid that I will change my mind afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverine Posted June 25, 2011 Author Share Posted June 25, 2011 Thanks. Yah tatts aren't the best for everyone. Adding many species after this summer the sun really fades tatts really want a Therea and some Eublaberus tatts. Anyway working on covering my body. Wife hates roaches but new tatts aren't an issue lol. Also want some praying mantises and tiger beetles. The best bet start were sun doesn't shine. That does look nice.

My husband threatens to get more tats all the time(none of them will be arthropods), it hasn't happened yet, but I am afraid that he will want sleeves of tats. It looks good on other people, but I don't want him to be covered. I have this fear of having to look at the same pictures every day. Even if they aren't on me. Give me more bugs anyday.

Peter Clausen Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Were you joking about the woodpecker? It is extinct, right? Or do some people still go searching for it like bigfoot and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herpetologyfrk Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Were you joking about the woodpecker? It is extinct, right? Or do some people still go searching for it like bigfoot and such. Id like to think it wasn't extinct. There have been a few un-confirmed sightings of them, with out pictures or DNA evidence of course. That doesn't mean they werent real or fake though. A couple Universities have claimed sightings too. Edit: If I lived in their suspected current habitat I would look for proof too x) I don't think it is as farfetched as Bigfoot though. We've had these birds in captivity at one point in time, so it isn't like they never existed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverine Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 Lol I came home one day with a 14 inch grizzly tatt up my whole side and my wife liked it. Guess I'm lucky well she did marry me with a large turkey vulture tatt. Well I love my tatts more everyday My husband threatens to get more tats all the time(none of them will be arthropods), it hasn't happened yet, but I am afraid that he will want sleeves of tats.

Wolverine Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 Well its hard to believe the Ivory bill is extinct. Spend some time up the bayou. Brinkley AR the recent hot spot what I call BFE bum %$#@ Egypt. Lots of swamp not many people big trees. Have a feeling the birds have been rediscovered but the few people who know want to plan ahead. Well to the bigfoot non believers come to NorCal. There is hundreds of miles of wilderness its atleast fun to look. Id like to think it wasn't extinct.
