Ursel is having this done by Adam at Westside Tattoo in Brisbane, Australia. These pictures were taken at the shop right after it was outlined… Should be very nice when it’s all done!

wow! that’s awesome!
thats genius. i love it. It fits her shape very well
I think i looks awesome as it is now. Seems more like a part of her own body, her soul in her skin
stunning work, I’d love to see the finished piece
i don’t really like the dragon tattoos, but i really like this one. 🙂
Wow. If it looks that nice as an outline, it is going to rock when the piece is finished.
That is BEAUTIFUL…
amazing…
jealousy!`
I love it!!
But I’m looking at the background and not thinking ‘shop’…
That’s amazing … the outline must’ve taken forever! I can’t wait to see it when it’s all finished.
Wow. I am blown away. This is stunning.
That’s a beautiful tattoo. I can’t wait to see the finished piece.
i approve.
and…wow.
stunning – i love giant backpieces like this
That’s beautiful. It fits her shape so perfectly. All i can think though, is “how long was that sitting?”
jesus christ man… this is awesome!
Sweet job
Go team westside++
beautiful, utterly beautiful
I agree with #3.
It’s a beautiful piece and compliments her body so well
What are you talking about? It *already* looks very nice!
Also, she has a fantastic, very graceful looking back. A great combination!
Extremely gorgeous!!
That’s amazingly beautiful. I think it looks perfect even as an outline, I cannot WAIT to see the finished piece she is a very lucky girl 🙂 GREAT work!!!!
Wow. Amazing.
so pretty. beautiful work, beautiful art, beautiful girl. thanks shannon!
Adam is the man.
I just HAVE to see it when it’s done. It looks fanatastic, and with some colour and deptch it will be literally stunning.
I was wondering how long that sitting was too! I can’t sit for more than 3 hours or so. Kudos to her! That looks incredible.
Intense. I love it.
That is absolutely stunning – it looks amazing on her!
and to top it all off Adam is the nicest person you’d ever meet.
Wow that looks awesome, is it her first tattoo?? Pretty intense if it is!
yiiewww! go Adam!
Note down another ‘wow!’ from me…ha.
BEAUTIFUL!
wonderfull work. beautiful back.
oh, i love it!
I like it as is.
I like the tattoo as it is right now too. Don’t need coloring at all.
And she has the most perfect body. I’m completely in love 🙂
Wauw!
this one is beautiful. i want someting like this!
that flows so well with her body. I love the details and I wanna see how it’s gonna look finished
wow, that’s beautiful. i like it just outlined, i think color might even be overkill. then again i’m a prude.
I love how it wraps her form, and leaves nice asymmetric areas bare…inviting kisses. 🙂 I look forward to seeing it completed.
that’s beautiful!!!
that’s beautiful!
That is gorgeous!
AmAzInG!
#9: Maybe she took the photos when she got home…
WOW.
As others have said, I’m not really a huge fan of dragon tats… but this is incredible. I think it would look stunning in black and white or sepia-ish tones, but thats just me ;p
Hope to see some more pictures of the progression of the inking, assuming she gets further work done.
Now that will look exquisite when its complete, please come back and show it when its done.
