In this guide I like to take the time to give you some ideas on the best skull tattoo designs, and tell you some of the mythology and attraction encircling the skull.

There are a lot of variations and themes when it comes to skull tattoo design. For instance, flaming skulls designs have had resurgence in popularity since the release of the Ghost Rider movie, and are an excellent choice if you want to make a bold statement.

 An oldie but a goody is the cattle skulls with snakes or lizards protruding from the eyes, or maybe your preferences lean more toward the tribal skulls with the bold lines and the darkness of the vacant eye sockets is a very appealing tattoo design.

The rise in support for the skull tattoo may be due to the success of the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise, which has the emblem of the skull and crossbones commonly referred to as the “Jolly Roger” flag. The pirate tattoo design is easily one of the most sort after tattoo designs today. The Jolly Roger message was feared by many for good reason, because it meant if you were caught by the pirates, you may not live to see another sunrise.

When a red flag was hoisted the message was more blunt “no mercy”, and if you are looking for ideas for the best skull tattoo design then the red Jolly Roger with the words “ no mercy “ underneath, sounds pretty good to me.

Jolly Roger flags are also used in other areas, such as, it is the emblem of the British Royal Navy Submarine unit, and several units of the Naval Aviation squadrons have used the Jolly Roger insignia.

I’m sure there are a number of American football League’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans who their team’s logo version of skull tattoo design, and that is, a football with 2 swords tattooed on their body.
