Classic Dragon Tattoo Design

This tattoo is one of a classic dragon design. A creature that is almost always portrayed in a way that it is always ready to leap into action and fight for whatever there is to fight for at the moment. No wonder a dragon is considered a sign of strength. Something that is though of as earth, wind, water and fire. And also seen as the four directions on the compass. In short the dragon, from many cultures, has a deep meaning of standing for almost everything in life. In ancient China the dragons were a symbol of imperial power and would often take the side of whatever imperial ruler was in power at that time and supposedly lend those powers to those rulers as well.
While this tattoo is not the best looking dragon tattoo I have ever seen, it is a good one and I think everyone would have to admit that a dragon is nearly as cool as it can possibly get as far as getting a tattoo goes. Nothing looks quite as hot as a dragon tattoo. At least not for me. Though I would prefer one that is whole lot more complex than this one.
