If you have ever fancied having a full fry-up breakfast tattooed on your head, Blane Dickinson could make your unlikely dream come true.
The tattoo artist is searching for someone willing to turn themselves into a live exhibition of the classic bacon and eggs way to start the day.
Mr Dickinson, from Penmaenmawr, Conwy, wants to take his model around UK tattoo competitions.
It would include a knife and fork behind each ear.
The traditional breakfast has fallen in popularity in recent years behind the less fattening Continental alternative.
It may well be a cholesterol-packed meat-lover's dream - and perhaps a health nutritionist's nightmare - but it clearly still has its fans. Mr Dickinson remains willing, however, to accept variations on the theme.
That could mean additions such as black pudding - or even meat-free options for vegetarians would be considered.
But he will insist that the tattoo would have to be on someone's head to gain the full effect.
"It's such a striking and recognisable dish, but I will gladly make changes to suit any taste or background." So far, however, he has been unable to convince his friends to volunteer.
How fucking original!

I've seen that pic in this book I got, 1000 Tattoos. From the looks of it in the book, the Dutch have definatly put their own twist on tattooing.

That picture is, as you can see, from the Lords Of Oi! album. I don't believe that guy, or most of the people who's tattoos are pictured in that book, are Dutch.

Not really a majority of photos are from the Bristol Tattoo Club.

Most of the modern (color) photos in the back are credited as being from the Netherlands.

OK. Doesn't completely surprise me as it is a book by a Dutchman.

Man gets breakfast tattoo on head
One egg or two? Dayne Gilbey from Coventry shows off his breakfast tattoo.

A man has had a tattoo of a full breakfast created on his head after a plea for a volunteer.
It took tattoo artist Blane Dickinson, 32, from Penmaenmawr, Conwy, six hours to complete the bacon, eggs, sausages, beans and even cutlery.
Volunteer Dayne Gilbey, 19, from Coventry, said he wanted to take part in something different.
Mr Dickinson said he next wanted to find someone willing to have their face tattooed on the back of their head.
Mr Gilbey, who already has four tattoos, said: "My friends and family keep asking me why I'm doing this.
"For me it's just something different which has never been done before.
"My mum is really unhappy about it and threatened to throw me out but I don't think she'll go through with it."
He volunteered for the tattooing, which took place at The Albion pub in Conwy.
Added Mr Dickinson: "I first had this idea four years ago so I'm glad to have finally found someone brave, or perhaps unhinged, enough to do it.
"I'm not charging Dayne but this tattoo would normally cost around £350 and must definitely be the most expensive breakfast he's ever had."
