Dragon tattoos which are created today can be both traditional as well as modern. They range from being tribal and terrifying to being realistic, charming and sweet.
The dragon tattoos which are carved in Japanese style, show dragons without wings, who have paws similar to that of a tiger, their claws are eagle-like, their head is camel-like, they have long whiskers and they may also have some sort of jewel, just below their chin.
The Chinese dragon tattoo designs should ideally have a very strong resemblance to snakes. Just like snakes, they have a scaly body. Authentic Chinese dragon tattoo designs have four legs and there are five claws on each of these legs. They are also shown with a pearl under their chin.
