Great Looking Scorpion Tattoo Ideas


125

Scorpion Tattoos to die for. Seriously, these are the most gorgeous, badass tattoos I’ve ever seen. HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you check out these greatest hits. I love scorpions and scorpion tattoos as a result. And it’s not only because that is my zodiac sign, but because I’m from the desert and that’s a very representative animal from there.

Scorpions are also very badass animals. They belong to the same family as spiders but look way more intimidating, don’t you think? Scorpions have a hard body and a ferocious temper.

They are not afraid of anything! Their venom is strong and causes a lot of pain to their victims.

Scorpions have a lot of meaning and symbolize very interesting traits. Usually, scorpion tattoos wearers get one because they feel identified with one of their many meanings:

  • Passion
  • Control
  • Death
  • Sex
  • Protective characteristics

This last one is related to a Greek Myth where a scorpion stung Orion and killed him, that’s why the two constellations can never be seen at the same time in the sky.

To the Egyptians, scorpions were a symbol that meant protection and so they usually made scorpion-shaped amulets to carry with them.

You may be thinking of getting a scorpion tattoo, and that’s a very good idea. Let us illustrate to you on the fine arts of scorpion tattoos so you don’t have to worry about losing time with research since I’ve already done it!

1. Black and White Scorpion Tattoo

2. Scorpion Tattoos on Shoulder

Scorpion tattoos are for show, and you should really consider getting one on your shoulder. It’s a great area that’s easy to cover up or show off if you want to.

3. Tribal Scorpion Tattoos

Due to its form, a scorpion is a very “tribal-friendly” animal. If you like this style you can easily get one done on you!

4. Traditional Scorpion Tattoos

Scorpions make for great traditional tattoos since they have a very interesting shape and colors make them look more intimidating (the contrast between two colors intensifies the venomous trait).

 

5. 90s Art Style Scorpion Tattoos

I don’t know what you think but I feel like this artwork looks very 90s-ish. Kinda looks like taken from the Mask movie.

 

6. Venomous Looking Scorpion Tattoos

Scorpion Tattoos - TOP 150 Ranked -for Every Taste and Style, Pick Yours! Badass

On traditional tattoos, the colors can be played with and this contrast makes the scorpion look more intimidating.

 

7. Ready to Charge

Scorpion Tattoos - TOP 150 Ranked -for Every Taste and Style, Pick Yours! Badass

Scorpion tattoos usually are very aggressive and powerful looking. This design shows a scorpion that’s about to attack.

 

8. Dangerously Sexy Scorpion

Scorpion, because of its association with the zodiac sign, also symbolizes the sexual drive and kinkiness of its wearer. A sternum is a spot-on place for scorpion tattoos with that intention.

9. Scorpion and Rose Traditional Tattoo

I’m trying to understand why scorpions usually are accompanied by a rose, and my best guess is the interpretation is related to passion and also some delicacy.

 

10. Realistic Scorpion Tattoos

Scorpion Tattoos - TOP 150 Ranked -for Every Taste and Style, Pick Yours! Badass

This one also comes with red roses, always a strong contrast between them and the black color of the scorpion.

 

11. Zodiac Scorpion Tattoos

Scorpion Tattoos - TOP 150 Ranked -for Every Taste and Style, Pick Yours! Badass

Most people will think of getting a scorpion tattoo because they were born under that sign. Fortunately, there are plenty of designs to choose from.

 

12. Amazing High-Contrast Scorpion Tattoo

30. Abstract Scorpion Tattoos

Scorpion Tattoos - TOP 150 Ranked -for Every Taste and Style, Pick Yours! Badass

This is another tribal design of a scorpion but this time a little more abstract so unless you already know it’s a scorpion tattoo, you may have a hard time figuring it out.

 

31. Awesome Chest Scorpion Tattoo

Scorpion Tattoos - TOP 150 Ranked -for Every Taste and Style, Pick Yours! Badass

32. Small Scorpion Behind the Ear
