I seem to be in tune with almost everyone here, I wouldn't want something that big or that design, and the peeled-off skin looked grosse. That said, I do like the way it looks on this woman. We might think that she did it to be sure she would get what she wants; a bamboo cane across her back.
If ever I should do something like that, I would have to go with what's connected to my belief; a dragon.
I also agree that it might be improved on, with some colours.
