I want a new tattoo.?

I'll be thinking on this for a while, I'm just in the beginning stages of planing. My problem is I can't seem to find a good place to put it. What I want is a Scarab Beetle, nothing intricate, just a basic design, maybe something you'd see in traditional tribal black work. Something like this, but obviously bigger. Probably at least the size of my palm. http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PbzJF3Rm640/R3HndaVl58I/...

However, I think I want to give it a try in white ink. I've done my research and I know the risks with white tatts, so no need to go into that.

So really, where am I going to put this? It has to be somewhere that doesn't see the light of day much, because of the delicate and easy fade nature of white ink, if it ever has a chance of sticking. I really wanted my next tatt to be a rib piece, but I'm not really sure this design would flow well.

Update:

Eh, I really don't like lower back tattoos, and I don't feel like I can put it between my shoulder blades. I have a piece on my left shoulder, but not my right, not yet. I don't think I'd like the way it'd look, without the other shoulder to balance it. I thought about my right shoulder for a while too, but it would get too much sun.

Update 2:

And it's not that I want to hide it per say, it's just because of the nature of full on white pieces, it needs to be in a place that isn't exposed to sun a lot.

    If you put it on your lower back or between your shoulder blades, that'd be cool. A nice, easy hide spot.
