If you’ve ever seen my profile picture on ibeatyou you may have noticed that I like dinosaurs. You know what else I like? Awesome tattoos. Put those together and you get awesome dinosaur tattoos. I’ve found my favorite dinosaur tattoos to put them all together in one place for the ultimate Top 10 list. I am in awe of these brave souls. You have to be pretty cool to rock the dino tat.  Here are a few examples of the various way one can tattoo dinosaurs.

10. Show your off your fun-loving side with a small outline of your favorite dinosaur toy:

9. Impress the ladies by being tough and sensitive at the same time. Dino skull? Check. Flowers? Check:

8. Dinosaurs = LOVE. Adding a heart makes any dinosaur tattoo adorable:

7. How do you make a dinosaur + heart even CUTER? Placement is everything, ladies and gentlemen:

6. Trying to look hardcore? A dinosaur tattoo can help! Especially a dinosaur tattoo on the inside of your lip:

5. For the scientific tattoo aficionado- A hungry fossilized Tyrannosaurus Rex:

4. For the true dinosaur lover, none of that cutesy stuff. This is the real deal:

3. This dinosaur tattoo? Totally awesome, and he knows it. Putting the artists of Jurassic Park to shame:

2. To show true dinosaur dedication, you really need to go with the full back tattoo:

1. Having a child is truly life defining. Some people express their unconditional love with tattoos. Tattoos of their baby’s head and a dinosaur head. Together. Just because. My personal favorite:

This dinosaur tattoo is in a class of its own, and thus could not make the list. Plus 1,000,000,000 points for using moles as eyes.  Are you cool enough to tattoo a cowboy riding a dinosaur with mole eyes on your side? I didn’t think so.

Enough with the dinosaur tattoos! Here are my favorite tattoo competitions currently on ibeatyou:
