I went for a tattoo of a snake but what I came away with was a TOTAL disaster

A REDDITOR got a tattoo of a snake that has been compared to orange peel and a tapeworm.

The social media user, known only as u/oflamb, shared an image of the pattern titled Butchered Snake to the thread S****y Tattoos.

The shows the beast wrapped around a plant that has two flowers coming out of it.

Redditors mercilessly ridiculed the pattern, with some comparing it to fruit peel.

Others claimed it was a “beautifully executed parasitic roundworm”.

Redditors claimed that the snake’s spine appeared to be broken in three places and pointed out that its eyes appeared to be far apart.

One commented: “The anatomy is completely wrong.”

Some speculated that the tattoo was inked by two different people.

While, others were more sympathetic as they said the outline of the flowers looked realistic.

They said the botched design was “fixable” if it was redone.

It comes as Jennifer McGee, 18, was left mortified after she wanted to get an inspirational tattoo inked onto her body but the artist made a spelling error.

She wanted the phrase: “With pain comes strength” but the tattooist misspelled the word “strength”.

Jennifer was shocked when she noticed the spelling error and revealed she wants it removed as soon as possible. 

Tiktokers said they would’ve been mad and cried if the ordeal had happened to them.

BOTCHED TATTOOS

Redditor Glittering-Basil 3027 sparked a flurry of discussion online after getting a tattoo of a cat that has been likened to the Ghostbusters character Slimer.

Slimer was known for his huge appetite and left a trail of green gunk whenever he moved around.

The character was also known as "Onionhead" and he appeared in Ghostbusters I, II, and the video game.

Others likened the artwork to the character Slugcat from Rain World and Star Wars gangster Jabba the Hutt.

And, Piper CJ showed the artist a picture of Wonder Woman as she wanted a tattoo of the cartoon character.

But, it appeared the artist had other plans for her design.

Piper said: “I drew that OG sample but I’m no artist and I can’t draw people, but this artist was like 'I totally see the vision, I gotchyu'. She did not *get me*.

“I can’t draw people at all so she said she’d “fix it”. She did me dirty. She was cruel to me.”

Piper was left furious with her tattoo and revealed that she's going to get it covered up.
