I just set up a consult for my next tattoo. It's going to be a Garuda on my back. Its significance is mostly for my love of Thailand and Thai culture (it's a prominent national symbol in Thailand). The Garuda also happens to be the mortal enemy of the Naga or snake. My wife, @sencha has a snake on her back, so my Garuda will be analogous to her tattoo.
There are a few variations on the theme, so let me know which one you like the most.
