Description
Finally got around to photographing my finished back tattoo design. The material I was using made the ballpoint pen I used on the values of the clouds bleed everywhere...Blargh.Anyways, so. The stars make up the Leo constellation (my astrological sign). I'm not an "astrology is 100% true" person, but I tend to relate to most interpretations of a Leo. On top of that, lions are my favorite animal. The stars are also in rainbow order because I identify as a lesbian. The spine ties in with Leo, the sign that rules the heart, upper back and spine. I'm fascinated with anatomy, so that's another reason for that. As for the clouds, Leo is ruled by the Sun. Also, I'm a pretty optimistic person, trying to hold my head up high - in the clouds I guess you could say.
TL;DR. Each component is symbolic to me.

Beautiful!
Not sure if you got it yet, but if you haven't, you should!
It's awesome that it's symbolic to you, every little piece of it. ^^

I want to get it, but I need the money first. It'll probably be a few hundred dollars at the very least.

That's understandable. Tattoos can get really expensive.

Yeah it is gunna hurt, but it's worth it
I drew it my sophomore year, but I left it in the art room over the summer and they decided to clean it out that year so I lost it...
I just decided to redraw because I need a reference for it.

No like I googled tribal tattoo designs and it was on page 15 or something around there. And that was before you posted it. So confused. Think someone might have taken it from the art room?

This is gonna HURT as a tattoo, regardless of how symbolic it is. Just sayin'. I've considered getting tatts myself, so I've asked around. It'll also probably be HUGELY expensive.
Now, is it awesome-looking? You betcha! I'm really tempted to say 'add some red near the spine,' just to make it look realistic. That's not quite the look you're going for, though, is it?

Yeah, it'll hurt like hell, but it's worth it. And yeah, tats are crazy expensive.
I wanted the only color to be the stars, yeah

There's a rave this month at some point, but I don't remember the exact details.
Of course, it's college - there's probably raves somewhere, I'm just not looking hard enough.

Naw, it's not religious, per se, but it is predominantly Conservative.

OK, just curious. Not sure how that affects the amount of raves, but I'm sure it does.

It means they dance to Country music and the men are grunting apes who punch out anyone who goes near their girlfriends...
