Keeping a Tattoo After Death?

Where as i'd have loved to have had something like this for my dad (he died in 99 and had a panther tattoo i loved), would your kids appreciate it? I don't think many people would be happy with having a framed piece of tattooed flesh. I'm sure it could be done though, In fact you've given me an idea....

And everyone else can STFU, if thats what you want look into it, pay for it and have it done. Why's this strange, but stuffing a dead pet isn't?

(i'm planning on paying for my mums dog to be stuffed when he pops it, my 9 year old brothers been saying he wants that for 3 years!)

I can't tell you whether or not the law would honor this, but assuming that you're serious, I just kind of wanted to defend you against everyone whose telling you that you're gross. I understand what you're saying about someone having the ashes of their loved one sitting on their mantle. So, I just kind of wanted you to know that there's someone out there who thinks this is a pretty beautiful idea. Good luck.

Everyone I've talked to says it's illegal. I really want to be made into a colorful lampshade, so I can shine on, but there are no legal avenues open to doing it. I suppose if you sunk enough cash into it, anything is possible. Like how ol' Walt Disney had himself frozen. Money, money.

you need some help thats sick. why the hell would you want your kids to walk around with some of your skin? why not just give them a finger or somet

That's mildly gross. I hope you're not serious.

Edit:

What's wrong with them keeping just a photograph of your tattoos, like normal people?
