Artist's Comments

After looking around for screen shots, or someone elses drawings, I found none.

I watched the movie, and came up with the best rendition i could (none of the shots are very clear)

Someone else pointed out that Alex O'Connel (the boy) mentions that the tattoo has "kings" represented on it. They also proceeded to mention that they saw no signs of kings. They later commented taht the kings "MUST be the king cobras..." (misquoted I'm sure) While this is a valid observation, My proposal is this: If you watch closely (and know what you're looking at through blurred images), you will see that the two cobras are wearing the two distinctly different crowns (that were later made into one crown) that were worn by the north and south kingdoms (respectively) of ancient Egypt. Thus making the king cobras, Kings in and of themselves.

Another interesting note: The "all seeing eye" depicted within the triangle (assumedly a pyramid) is an interesting myopic combination of the eye of Horus and the eye of Isis.

Later Ardeth Bay (the madjii) speaks a rather cryptic phrase to Rick O'Connell which sounds like it may have origins in Freemasonry (though That is entirely speculative, and I have nothing to back that claim.-- Except a few far reaching hypothosies made in The Hiram Key, written by Robert Lomas)

This is a work in progress, I will continue tweaing it until I feel it is perfect... so check back.

In response to the thing about the kings, yes you're right Alex is talking about cobras.. in the film I noticed that when Alex is building his mouse trap the tattoo is on the wall and looks just like yours (but in silver i think).. anyway thanks for this :) :)Looks great!

it is a cool tattoo and i'm in love with anything egyptian so i wanted to get something like this, but now since everyone is getting this, i think it would be pointless to have it.

I didn't know it was that popular.
