A Striking Old-School Tattoo: Snake and Sword

This captivating tattoo combines classic imagery with bold lines and shading characteristic of old-school tattooing. The entwined snake and sword represent strength, protection, and perhaps a duality between primal instinct (the snake) and controlled power (the sword).

The traditional style emphasizes clean linework, solid black shading, and a limited color palette for maximum impact. Placement on the forearm allows for clear visibility and showcases the design's dynamic composition.
