THAT IS SO AWESOME.
i’ve been trying to think of something cool to get for paleontology… perhaps a trilobite :P nothing nearly as baddass as a triceratops skull chestpiece zomg!
Wow, that’s really cool…and different, I like it a lot! And yay for shaved heads!
Just awesome! that’s an idea i would never have!
Haha, that makes me laugh! That is great.
thats an odd subject for a tattoo. but very cool. she looks hott.
so hot, i wonder id she does something that is related to the tattoo? i love the detail at how the head seems to be popping out
That’s so awesome.
Amazing. Both her tattoo and her.
this girl looks incredibly sweet
Love the tattoo, very cute girl
Fantastic!!
That is amazing!!! I need to get around to a dinosaur tattoo already. I’m leaning more towards aquatic life like plesiosaurs or a coelacanth, though.
the tattoo is amazing as well as the girl!!!
Fantastic piece of work. Quirky but classy.
Oh wow, that is an awesome tattoo. It really suits her!
What beautiful eyes.
This is an absolutely wonderful piece.
What’s not to love about dinosaurs?
love the tattoo! it seems quite original and the work is great.
Most interesting and awesome-looking tattoo I’ve seen in a good while. Amazing x
Brilliant!! I’ve been trying to figure out a cool way to incorporate dinosaurs into my body art, she has shown it can be done! *sigh* Dinosaurs were such a massive part of my childhood. Land Before Time, anyone?
great looking tattoo. and there’s nothing sexier than a girl with a buzzed head.
Cerah is the name of the Triceratops on The Land Before Time.
Awesome piece.
WOW! Awesome!! It´s gorgeus.
Gorgeous!
Her tattoo colours match her pretty hazel eyes.
*swoon*
shes so cute!!!
that’s gorgeous, and very classy.
Such a great look - both the tattoo and the girl. Stunning!
*grins*
This totally just made my day!! Thanks for the compliments… there’s pics of the finished chestpiece on in IAM gallery.
HA! First thing I saw was a HUGE lobe stretching in the mirror – then I looked again and realized it was a towel holder! …then I noticed the beautiful tattoo and woman!!

That and brave little toaster are my favorite childhood movies.
Wow, that looks so good. I haven’t seen many tattoos where your looking directly at the front of the subject like that, usually their on an angle showing some sort of profile. Its turned out really well, congrats to the artist and all involved.
i’ve always wanted to shave my head
but i like my hair a lot
I LOVE the land before time! Awsome movie!!
My favourite chest piece I’ve seen so far, nice idea and colours.
:)
Is that DeviantNation’s Cerah?
Simon - Yes, that’s her :)
I like that her name is Cerah and so is the triceratops in land before time - great tattoo !!
I LOVE THAT!!
Loving this - great subject matter. Right up there with chestpiece antlers
One of the best, most original designs I’ve ever seen. Beautiful!
Absolutely stunning- and what gorgeous eyes she has.
effing awesome tattoo
That is so awesome! I love the tat and the Land Before Time name ref.
#12 - leoplurodons rule..
Cerah - send in more pics soon plwase..
#20 OMG yes.. love it I like this, all the dino tat’s ive seen have been fair bad but this one is awsome, i love how she’s smiling.
the haircut is beautiful.
the tattoo totally ruins a beautiful décolletage.
sorry, sweetie.
that should have gone on your lower back.
that is awesome! i have a land before time sleeve that is in the process right now, i have one more session next week and then it is done! i love this idea or basically anything that is tlbt…
this is one of the nicest attoos i’ve seen in a while, the colours just seem to work so well. i love it!
Wonderfull! The best Dino Tat I have EVER seen!
Fucking AWESOME tattoo on a beautiful girl.
[...] My current plan is to get a tattoo of a dinosaur skull on my right upper arm, with paleobotanical stuff surrounding it (y’know, big ferns, scary flowers, maybe a crazy pinecone-lookin’ thing in there for good measure) for color. . I haven’t decided between triceratops (childhood fave) and styracosaurus (bad-ass horns), or if I want the skull in profile, three-quarters view, or head-on (I think I’d rather have a bare skull than a fleshed-out dino head, because who knows what they looked like with skin ‘n’ junk?). I’m hoping the tattoo artist will be able to help out with those decisions; I’d be happy with any of the options. Cub scout’s honor (never made it to Boy Scout), I swear I came up with this before I saw this righteous tattoo. [...]
[...] pretty great tattoo with an increasingly familiar theme was posted recently on flickr. I did a double-take when I first saw [...]
[...] of you may recognize this tattoo (and this person!) from an earlier post (or from the source), and I gotta say, I am just tickled to have a photo of Cerah and her (now completed, I think) [...]
holy fuck…
