So, in honor of everyone’s favorite holiday, Passover, which is just chock full of all sorts of fun plagues, here we have a frog (that probably fell from the heavens) using a fancy umbrella to cover itself from the raining blood! Wait, was that a plague or a Slayer song? Either way.
(Tattoo by Dan Smith at High Voltage Tattoo in Hollywood, California.)

I love the pretty umbrella in comparison to the rain of blood..
very nice piece overall
but i very much dislike the umbrella
the umbrella looks clumsy and odd… does the artist know how umbrellas work?
oi vey
wonderful froggy
#3 The better question is does the artist realize frogs lack the finger strength to hold an umbrella above them.
that’s a toad, not a frog.
All hail the hypno-toad!
#6 – its obviously a cocktail umbrella from a ritzy drink ;)
//plastic animal friends not included.
Toad, Frog, Broken umbrella… I for one really enjoy this tattoo.
I really like this. Great great sweet.
chocolate rain
Damn, I was just talking to my artist about High Voltage the other day, and he mentioned that Dan (who used to work at the shop I go to in little old Adelaide) is now working there. Creepy much?
It’s a nice looking fellow, it reminds me of a cane toad.
dayoldwasabi,
my thoughts exactly… all hail hypno-toad
what? i was mesmerized by the awesomeness of this tattoo…
Maybe that little toad’s holding a nice Tiffany lamp and you’re all wrong =)
There should be a group of Plague-themed tattoos. Toads, locusts, Angel of Death, etc…I can see ithat on ModBlog.
I think it’s a Cane Toad caught in the Kimberly wet season.
Cool t-shirt though!
Iron Maiden t-shirt? :P
I really like the tattoo. Even though the tattoo artist has clearly used his artistic artistic licence with that umbrella, I know some old umbrellas (like from the 18th and 19th century) have that kind of round shape with the elongated peak.
cool colour!
omg! toady wart face. <3
everyone’s a critic… good job smith!
It’s a Municipal Waste shirt, you amateur.
nice and clean tattoo ,good job mr.smith ,i wonder if wonder randy has a tattoo more thn a sick tribal or kanjis up his arm because those are sooo cool theyre the coolest tattoos to date
oh this is nice.
I did some sweet tribal on wonder randy, he has got sweet tribals up his arm and he is planning on getting some face tribal like mike tyson! what a guy.
