Spotted this pretty kitty (no pun intended) by Gary Royal on Swallows & Daggers. Here it is in tattoo form, too.

A little while ago I posted this (http://diceman78.tumblr.com/post/35835030592/im-not-going-to-get-too-drawn-into-the-whole) suggesting a skull illustration would make a great tattoo. Pleased to see that one of my favourite artists, Mr Rich Hadley of Rain City, Manchester, has duly obliged. Nice. (http://instagram.com/p/jjXBxyxDoo/)

Tiger by Sarah Keeley - included this because I like the approach and the composition is beautiful; could work for the leopard. Also, it's just bloomin' marvellous. (http://instagram.com/p/bjNdZVMSc_/)

Horned jaguar by Curt Baer, Iron Mountain Tattoo. Yes, it's not a snow leopard in keeping with the current theme, but, y'know, LOOK at it!

Snow Leopard, American traditional style, by Mark Stewart. The snowflake is a fun touch.

This year's ink will hopefully include a snow leopard, if I can find the right artist (tricky subject, I reckon). With that in mind, here's a nice kitty to kick off 2014.

This is part of a sequence of old photos retouched in colour that's doing the social media rounds at the moment. They're all intriguing, but I was struck by this chap's tattoo (if it is one).

Happy Halloween! To celebrate, here's another Richey Beckett treat: an awesome alternative Wicker Man poster. A fine illustration for a marvellously loopy horror movie.
