red or fox squirrel?

nope it is really obscure

Aberts?

Excellent! I was wondering if it would be discernible but so few people have ever heard of them

I majored in wildlife, so I might have an unfair advantage. ;)

For the record, it looks excellent! No trouble telling what it was.

yay! I'm debating getting actual white in the tail but I think I'm pastey enough :-P

Ha! Naaa.. It'd look fine. Get it UV inked! ;)

I've heard mixed reviews on UV ink

*nibble* Hey yous, za shmee. Lovely piece of art.

I now know what my next tattoo must be. Had tattooed the kanji for red squirrel on my left ankle, and was debating doing a red squirrel tail on my back but there are a number of concerns there such as cost, free time to get it done, and whether or not that color ink would even show well after a little while. But something like this is gorgeous, so maybe something of a more red squirrelish variety... X3

I commissioned  Thornwolf and she did a great job with it. I also have http://www.furaffinity.net/view/7634270/ (which is shaded now)  savannahhorrocks did that one. I'm hoping to slowly get the whole lower leg in squirrels, like it is a tree trunk.

This is clearly a nutty squirrel :3

I think you have that wrong.. I am clearly a nutty squirrel :)

It's trueee. You got me.

I like the tat though!

I look forward to showing it off more :) Each tat I get just looks better and better

Hehe. <3

So this is like no. 2 for you with squirrel tatts isn't it?

Actually three squirrels and an anklet with a vine and nuts hanging off it. one a year since 2010

Love to see what you've accumulated by 2030

LoL.. Hopefully by then I have the lower leg completed and the other leg started (which I'm thinking will be dedicated to sugar gliders)

I've debated a tattoo multiple times for about 2 years now, but I keep hearing mixed reviews on level of pain and what area hurts most. Not to mention I can't seem to settle on a design.

So far - The shin and anklet I have was the worst. The outer side of my lower leg was minimal. The one on my calf hurt the for a long time and was really red and swollen longer than the others. From what I've heard the most painful spots are the feet, over the spine, or really any bony area. I think that is why so many people get tattoo's on their bottom however I wanted to be able to easily see mine. It really depends on your pain level tolerance start with something small and simple and gradually move up (that is what I did anyways).

Thats pretty much what I've read, but my friend's mom said that the one on the back of her neck was so easy to sit through that she fell asleep. Never wanted anything on my legs, but I did like the idea of a band on my upper arm. I've heard mixed things about the back of the arm though.

I love Kaibab squirrels because I love tufted ears! <3

Yay!!!!! Thank you sooooo much!!!! I've been trying to figure out what kind of species the black squirrel with lynx type ear tip tuffs was!!!!! That's the same type my fursona is....but could never figure out type of squirrel it was. LOL
